he has done a service by exposing the extreme left as violent
Why does this line keep getting trotted out? Any time some ******* bigot is called out for being a ******* and a bigot, we have people saying "Now I don't agree with everything he says, but you have to admire how he exposed the left as violent".
Trump, Spencer, Bolt, and now apparently Milo.
You can't bang on about how violent 'the left' is, and then praise someone for 'exposing' it every time some societal skidmark gets their feelings hurt.
which will be handy for the greater left to become more reasonable and win back support lost in between the last elections.
And it's always followed by a line like the above as well.
As if these refugee hating, Muslim bashing, dingbats who grind their teeth if they even hear the word 'feminism', actually give a shit about anything positive happening to "the left".
While also ignoring the fact that Trump didn't win because the world is rebelling against 'the left' and 'do gooders' or anything like that. The world is reacting to fear mongering the same way it always has and always will.
1. Create an 'other' (Not you or me... someone other than us).
2. Turn that other into a boogeyman.
3. Drill the fear of that boogeyman into everyone constantly.
4. Repeat the mantra "If you're not with us you're with the boogyman".
5. Simultaneously act the victim and the hero.
6. Let the world know that you and your ideals are the only thing that can keep them safe.
7. Repeat steps 4 - 6 for years while using anything that happens that can be embellished to loosely back up your stance. (if nothing available just make it up).
