Fun fact: In the UK Indians are refered to as Asians

This is a reference to people arguing that racism refers to more than just bigotry, that it refers to a deeper, systemic bigotry. They would usually make such a distinction; it's racist (or sexist) when the bigotry comes from the systemically favored group (i.e., whites, men) and targets an oppressed/disenfranchised group.

Right, which is why asians, indians, and jews are the wealthiest and best-educated groups in the US since our systems are designed to favor them over whites, blacks, and hispanics.

Why do you feel the need to argue this with me when I didn't even take a stance? I was literally just clarifying because UR said wut.

The quote in the OP seems to refer to people like Antifa etc. At least that's what I assume is the context given current events and discussions on this board. Those groups are violent, but they're quite openly violent against fascism, nazism, and so on. Comparisons to totalitarian regimes that execute any dissenter fall a little flat, I think.


perhaps.
but if you'll look closely, none of my posts about communist genocides have been about or related to the discussion on Antifa in any way.

the first post i responded to was Unfairs post about Communist Russia, which then led to Samurons claim that "Communism is innocent, Stalin was just a mean guy who happened to be Communist." and the claim that they only ever go after the rich.

i don't see where you got the idea that i was using totalitarian regimes to rag on Antifa, when these discussions have been completely separate from each other.

Not you in particular, maybe it's a little unfair to single you out. But I thought it was a relevant point in this topic, since communist regimes came up.

It's interesting that European politicians use Trump being compared to Trump politics as an insult.

You'd think that would be bad for relations. It's hard to imagine France going "We don't need that Obama Rhetoric here!" 7 years ago.


Well for one I doubt Trump even knows or will find out because he's a pretty ignorant guy when it comes to other countries.

Secondly would you rather be compared to Trump or Obama? People in other countries respect the way Obama presented himself. Trump not so much.

does it answer itself?
it's not like he's the only one.
it seems to be a common theme in many nations where Communism sets in.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_killings_under_Communist_regimes

Seriously, why do people handwave that communism hasn't led to millions of people dying?

Like is there faith that one day it will be implemented where millions aren't murdered?

Well in this case it could be mitigated by reading like a third of the OP.

It's because they do

I'm sure that's the narrative conservatives would like to spread since they believe it means people can't criticize the GOP for being flagrant nazi sympathizers. People who live in the real world know this isn't true. Relativism is a conservative tactic to try and diminish the crimes of conservatives, while inflating the crimes of liberals.

What crimes have conservatives committed? And proof that the GOP are Nazi sympathizers?
