Society/Culture Alt-Right: How the Breitbart Machine Laundered Racist Hate

[Chief]

I agree.

Coming back to my point about taking a 16 year old to Milo being child abuse,

I was being silly. Sorry if that wasn't obvious.

 

[JackOutback]

I agree.

Coming back to my point about taking a 16 year old to Milo being child abuse, I feel we're more likely destroy these points of view by ruthlessly unpacking them rather than dismissing them outright.

I was quite miffed while taking a climate change subject at uni that they did not invite any denialist guest speakers. I felt it could have been a great learning experience for the class.

Should medical courses invite anti vaxxers and homeopaths to speak. Should geography courses invite flat earthers. At some point, we have to stop pandering to the blatantly false.

The strawman. Look out for it people.

False intellect.

Milo is obviously a racist toll.

Beat me to it. Absurd idea.

Time and again I do a simple test to see if anybody in the thread views the video. The view counters barely ever tick over.

And get shouted down and thrown out of class? Guessing the answer is no here Chief.

I didn't, but I should have.

One of the tutors had a similar idea but felt it was unlikely to get off the ground.

Don't need to be. Pretty simples. Even for you Chuff.

It's a Uni. Put your hand up. Challenge ideas.

Of course lines need to be drawn. However, there's a difference between pandering and making an attempt at engagement.

Pernicious views exist in the community and a concerning amount of people are subscribing to them. They are a macroscopic representation of people's concerns. I want to understand these concerns.

There's always going to be the stubborn fools who'll refuse to change. However, I feel there's way too many people being pulled from the centre towards the extremes. If you don't engage with these views and the people who hold them, how are we supposed to make positive changes? Am I just being young and idealistic?

Trump and Brexit appear to be a direct repudiation of the notion that we can dismiss society's fringes.

Milo is obviously a racist toll.

The video needs Ben Shapiro for the trifecta of "nazi" Jews

 

[11sjw]

Milo is obviously a racist toll.

The racist that married his black boyfriend?

But a gay man could never hate Jews and Muslims or believe that homosexuality is wrong!

Milo made some very good points about marriage. He was articulate and his ideas were thought provoking.

You would have hated it.

He did take particular pleasure in how his union with a black man triggered people like yourself.

Is homosexuality a genetic impediment to whipping up RWA hatred of Muslims, Jews, immigrants, feminists, etc?

Milo not being a bigot because he's married to a black dude is the biggest load of s**t I've heard since Tony Abbott said he was a feminist because he had three daughters.

 

[Scallop Industry Thug]

Pity that the alt right have figured out antifa were planning a November 4 revolution and mass beheading of white people. Can't get anything past them.

'I'm not devastated by the accidental secondary consequence of absolutely enraging the progressive left. 'Who is this white supremacist white nationalist racist sexist homophobic neo-nazi ...what is he doing marrying a black man? All our narratives are exploding!'

More bemused than enraged mate. Despite what he may think, he's hardly reinventing the wheel.
