Is anyone watching the debates tonight and tomorrow?

While many white supremacists are antisemitic, antisemitism doesn't make one inherently a white supremacist. Ask Louis Farrakhan. Also, if a statement like that means one is antisemitic, don't ever watch a comedy central roast. They're far worse. (hint: I'm saying it's not evidence he's antisemitic, never mind a white supremacist)

I love being white, and I think it's something to be very proud of. I don't want our culture diluted. We need to close the borders now and let everyone assimilate to a Western, white, English-speaking way of life.

Gavin Mcinnes.

 

 

Not that it matters in this context, Trump went on Hannity tonight and condemned the Proud Boys.

Whoops, missed the Gavin Mcinnes at the end there at first.

He's done it several times in the past, but as you say, it doesn't matter.  This wasn't the first time Chris Wallace asked him about it, and was answered.

You partially quoted me, which took it out of context.

I quoted the part that seems to be the post=debate theme, i.e. "Trump won't condemn white supremacists!"  Which is patently false.

 

(I had to look up Gavin, had no idea who he is)

Yeah the topic was the proud boys = Gavin McInnes. I know some us over 40 have a hard time keeping up.

I'm always surprised people don't know who he is. I knew about him first from his work with Vice. He's been on my radar for years.

Perhaps because he is insignificant in my life?  I also have never followed the Kardashians, couldn't name any but Kim, and wouldn't recognize any of them in a lineup.

Aren’t there a bunch of Black and Hispanic members of the Proud Boys?  I could be wrong as I have not paid a lot of attention to them, and they aren’t the one’s destroying cities.

Like you, I have only seen a few mentions lately, but have no idea who they really are.  I do know that while antifa and blm were destroying Oregon, tear gas and other methods of crowd control were turned off.  But at the first mention of the proud boys going to OR, the governor reinstated the use of them, as well as force.  Pretty telling which side their leadership is on.  Anarchy or die!

One of the head guys is Cuban.

I am just so puzzled how people who pay close attention to the news as many on here clearly do could have missed mentions of the Proud Boys over the past three or four years. They've hardly been a state secret. I heard about them before Charlottesville from a friend who lives in the PNW. 

 

The Proud Boys are chauvinists who do not believe that women have any role in society except to be subservient to men and bear them plenty of babies. Proud Boys have been convicted of violent assaults and sent away to prison for multi-year terms. 

 

They are technically "Western chauvinists" which doesn't preclude non-white men.

They have chapters all over including Africa. So how did the white supremacist tag get added?
