    In regards to the attack

    The problem is not that people have views that are against fascism, against white supremacy, against racism. That's certainly defensible, and in fact it's a good thing. The problem is when you start getting into violence. That's where you start to cross a line in the U.S., and that's where it starts to get into the terrorism arena

    Running these camps are violence. This by this definition terrorism. Right? Oh no it's not. Huh interesting.

    Also lol at "it's even a good thing" but no violence to combat it. Just :vote: I guess

      Furiously tapping my “read The Pitfalls of Liberalism” sign

      Is it not violent for a child to go to bed hungry in the richest country in the world? I think that is violent. But that type of violence is so institutionalized that it becomes a part of our way of life. Not only do we accept poverty, we even find it normal. And that again is because the oppressor makes his violence a part of the functioning society. But the violence of the oppressed becomes disruptive. It is disruptive to the ruling circles of a given society. And because it is disruptive it is therefore very easy to recognize, and therefore it becomes the target of all those who in fact do not want to change the society. What we want to do for our people, the oppressed, is to begin to legitimatize violence in their minds. So that for us violence against the oppressor will be expedient. This is very important, because we have all been brainwashed into accepting questions of moral judgment when violence is used against the oppressor.

    First I've heard about this, I wonder why the media chose not to go hog wild over the story.

    I don't think he's forgotten.

    I think he's remembered as "if you really want to die, this is probably the most valiant way to go out".
