    To those asking what's the difference between saying "white lives matter" and "black live matter"
    BLM was a movement that started to call attention to police shooting in America. It's not saying black lives matter more (it's not even saying the matter the same technically), it's just saying they matter and society was ignoring them and disenfranchising them. When it was coined, it has implied "too" at the end if that makes it easier to understand.
    As for the white lives matter. That only started as a way to take away from the BLM movement. Yes white lives matter, but that was never up for debate. It's effectively the same as me giving candy to one kid and not the other, the second kid is like "hey, can I want candy too" and I go on about "everyone needs candy, you don't need candy more than the first kid..." but never give them something as well. That being said, the statement "white lives matter" is not racist.
    Now for Charlottesville. They were saying "white lives matter" and promoting nazi iconography. Nazis are known for white supremacy, it's kind of their thing. They would say things like "taking our rights back" (from where? You never lost them. Someone getting rights doesn't strip you of yours. Rights are not in limited quantity). This all implies they weren't saying white lives matter too (as with BLM) but instead saying white lives matter MORE, their rights are more important than everyone's. This is their land and it's being "invaded". All those connotations is what makes theirs racist.

      You see we have these things called "legs" which allow us to move. We can even move at different speeds! You can "run" when you want to move quickly. You can "walk" when you want to move more slowly. It's called "jogging" if you want a speed slower than "running" but faster than "walking."

  • @jinjagaming1719
    @jinjagaming1719 7 років тому +144

    Perhaps one of the reasons a very large segment of rational people in this country don't get involved in events like this is because it's very unlikely that you will reason someone out of a position they didn't reason themselves into. Emotion fuels emotion and has a tendency to cloud logic. A protest is beyond the point of logical discussion. At the point of a protest, the teams have been chosen and the lines drawn. At the point of a protest, it's already a failure.

    This is disgusting to watch. But it's also sick to look at comments and see that people are diving us into groups, saying that it's the left's fault, or the right's fault. We have to come together, we can't be hateful towards people who believe the same beliefs as us. Political parties have become such a big part of us, that it paints the entire picture of someone from the moment you meet them. Not one liberal thinks the same as the other liberal, same with conservatives. We are all individuals! We can't be put into groups, that's not going to solve anything.
    Stop saying it's the other parties fault, the white peoples fault, the black peoples fault, Trump's fault.
    It's literally the Neo-Nazi, KKK members, and the white supremacists fault. Blame them. They're the ones causing the uproar and the mess.

    • @wassupdawg1977
      @wassupdawg1977 7 років тому +11

      I mean, i hate neo Nazis as much as the next guy, but isn't this anti-fa's fault primarily? I know this is stated a lot just in this comment section but this was a legitimate protest with official papers etc designating it as such, as far as i know anyway. Their views may be vile but they have every right to say them and the original protest was set up in a legitimate way so they had every right to be there.
      No violence would have occurred if Anti-fa didn't come to disrupt the protest surely? I mean, its pretty symbolic that the Nazi's, alt right and free speech people are usually the ones armed with shields to defend themselves while anti-fa have projectiles to instigate. And its happened time and time again, so you can't even argue that by bringing their shields and weapons the original protesters were looking for the fight, as recently a fight with anti-fa has been inevitable at right wing events of all kinds.
      I'm sorry, i know you started out your post saying not to lay blame based on group affiliation and differing opinion, but you then blame the wrong group probably because they have the more obviously vile opinion.

    • @wassupdawg1977
      @wassupdawg1977 7 років тому +12

      Yeah, and antifa came up to instigate a fight.
      For the last year, any right-wing event has been attacked by Anti-fa. At the start anti-fa were just beating on random people attending a lecture. As time progressed, more and more people on the right started bringing armor and helmets and shields and weapons to defend themselves. Most of those events had minor nazi presence as surprise surprise those with views people will suppress first will always congregate to the events proclaiming free speech, but that doesnt mean the other nazis are blind to what happens there. So when an event with a larger than usual neo-nazi presence (A group that are usually incredibly militant) gets attacked by anti-fa they will have more militant weapons.
      They bring this stuff to defend themselves because at this point it is provable that a well advertised right wing event will inevitably lead to a fight with anti fa who will be throwing cement filled bottles, bottles of piss, bats with nails, mini explosives and other thuggish weapons. To not bring things to defend yourself with would be to decide to be a sitting duck.
      The nazis views are retarded and evil, and yet they are the group who had legitimacy to their protest. Magically when anti-fa attacks an actual event where militant extremists are present and not some milo event, the reaction will be militant and extreme. If they didn't have anti-fa instigate the attack, they would have had nothing to attack back against. They would have had some vile people say some vile lectures, drank a few beers and gone home.

    @ScarfeeEdits 7 років тому +47

    What I am genuinely scared of is that people get so involved in choosing sides and so consumed with the fear of being condemned as "unloyal", the things get so radical so fast that it spins out of control.
    During events like this, the outrage just deafens people. The world becomes black and white (not in terms of skin color, but in terms of contrast). People lose sight of gray areas completely, and it becomes impossible to reason with anyone.
    What we should train ourselves to do is keep a level head, look at the situation reasonably and not let ourselves get dragged down into an emotional madness, whatever side you're on.
    No matter how much things outrage you... if you lose your temper it will only get worse, nothing right can come out of that.

      I completely agree. Political views should not incite violence. I personally think that all who were a part of the white nationalist protest with the intent of establishing white dominance over other ethnic groups are detestable, but the people from ANTIFA who attacked them were just as much in the wrong.
      It's never okay to use violence; it is morally wrong. It is especially bad because it causes polarization between one another. Some people on the left choose to only see that white supremacists killed an innocent woman in a riot. Some people on the right choose to only see that ANTIFA came and attacked people who until their arrival were peacefully protesting.
      Both sides are at fault, these violent actions will only cause people sitting on the fence to pick a side and join the fight, leading to more violence. Regardless of your political views, protests should be peaceful, and those who act in violence in behalf of their race, creed, or ethnicity should be seen as evil, by all sides.

      Especially when even Phillip fumbled a bit of information in this episode. The story about the Charlottesville incident was a bit mis-represented in the group the dude was part of. He wasn't actually a part of Vanguard, and that was said by the Vanguard themselves. Not that I agree with their ideals, but it's just a point of how multiple sources show the full story and how minor details are often jumbled up and lost in a single source.

  • @xfuzzzygames6481
    @xfuzzzygames6481 7 років тому +1

    As a conservative I am embarassed to be on the "same side" as the people at Charlottesville. I condemn everything that happened there, and want to make it perfectly clear that they are a small minority that are not supported by the majority of our "side."
    That said there are people on the left that do similar things, but I don't see the majority of liberals condemning their actions. During the riots in Ferguson even after the "hands up don't shoot" narrative was proven false many many people still ran with it, and the President at the time did not condemn the actions (as far as I recall, if he did feel free to correct me) of the perpetrators that burned down 25 businesses, 2 police cars, and a dozen civilian cars just in one lot. To a smaller scale there were the riots in Berkeley when Milo was set to speak there that caused $100,000 in damages. Again, I don't remember any prominent figures on the left condemning those actions.
    Now, that said we need to be fair. If you're on the right and don't condemn the acts in Charlottesville, you don't have the right to demand the left to condemn the actions of their supporters during the riots they've had. But I know the prominent figures on the right have condemned Charlottesville. I don't believe the left condemned the actions in Baltimore, Ferguson, Berkeley, or any other riots from their side.

      People generally don't think about anyone but themselves. Most of us (myself included) will say they care about famine, poverty or whatever but in actual real life (not what we think should happen) most of us don't have or don't take the time to realy care about anything more then our immediate circles (family and friends). So that means everyone agrees with themselves in those circles and nothing realy changes. We only think about having enough money to get this or that. Which means we need to work more. When you work more you have less time and all that loop keeps happening. Very few people are capable of doing the right thing on a regular basis. Talking is the key but when you can't talk to people of different walks of life ... you get stuck in your ways unless you actively try not to.

    @An-mg1nt 7 років тому +72

    I am extremely saddened and angry at all of these bigoted individuals for their desecration of Robert E Lee and their misguided support of him. First off, let's be clear that Robert E Lee, while the general for the Confederate army, was in fact in agreement with Northern values and beliefs which is why he wished for the Union to stay intact and was offered a position by Abe Lincoln himself to take charge of the Union army. Lee obviously turned this down as he didn't wish to fight against his home state and was drawn in to serve as the Souths general. Robert E Lee was a wonderfully brilliant military tactician who sought to ease tensions before the Civil War and during Reconstruction. It's a shame he won't be remembered as such but instead as a martyr to be used by white supremacists and disgusting Neo Nazis to further their own agenda.

I understand that people think he's guilty by association or is a reminder of a dark era in american history but people really need to educate themselves before they start spewing discomtempt. White nationalists, neo-nazis, and white supremacists also shouldn't claim him as part of their cause because I don't think if he were alive today would stand for that kind of hatred.

    The thing is that these people do have legitimate grievances but the issue is they too are being ostracized by people for their sex or colour of their skin.
    What we can do to help alleviate the tension these people have is to discuss, debate, and chat with them.
    I'm a coloured person and what do I do when I meet a racist person? I show them kindness and try to get them to understand that I am no different than they are.
    Try to find out why they hold these views and try to prove them wrong. If you choose to be mean and violent towards them all you will do is make them believe any preconceived notions they have to be correct. Fighting violence with violence and hate with hate will always lead to the same fate.
    There is a saying that we should try to bring back, "Kill your enemies with kindness."

      It seems to be that way as many would much rather just bring up the past in order to end the discussion and claim themselves correct.
      Many say that there is no room to discuss or chat with Nazi's simply for those killed during WWII. Though, I am sure these people are perfectly fine chatting or being near a Japanese person despite the fact the Japanese attempted a genocide of their own that took more lives than the Nazi's did.

    I have to wonder, had the counter protesters not shown up, would the situation have escalated the way it did? A better question might be, would there have even been a situation, had these peoples rights been respected the way others ask their rights to be? I don't condone or share their beliefs. But its their right to have them just as it is everyone else's. These groups have been known to actually have peaceful protests in the past. They are not the kind to use Protests as a veil to go commit random acts of violence like; breaking into liquor stores, setting gas stations on fire, and calling for the mass killing of Police Officers. What I am asking is what no one else seems to be. Which side carries the responsibility of having provoked the violence that caused the deaths of three innocent people? Probably the same side, that took it upon themselves,to tear down the statue, even after it had been announced that it would be removed.

No one else needed. If anything we're becoming the same as animals or even worse. There's no humanity, no compassion, NOTHING.
    When you see people celebrating the death of someone, when you see people willing to use rampant violence and try to justify themselves? Our empathy and humanity is draining away.

      We are being divided by extremists elements that are trying to speak for all. Antifa, MLB, and Black Panthers vs. White Nationalists, White Supremacists, and Neo-Nazis. Both sides are constantly riding everyone in the middle to pick sides while destroying the very foundations of our nation. They want it to be Minority vs. Whites, South vs. North, and Republican Vs. Democrats. To me it feels more like manipulation and power grabs by the leaders of these groups, misleading the public while condemning anyone that doesn't share their views.
      It is a sad thing and I'm sick of both sides.

    I agree with everything you said in today's show apart from the end when you said that most of these people are gonna convert or something. Because the most annoying thing for me personally is those statements saying "it's all white people" that is so annoying because the majority of white people are rational people and should not be compared with neo-nazis, white supremacists or the KKK, the reason I believe we have this big uprising in alt-right movements is because of this idiotic mentality of "all white people are [insert type of discrimination].

I think a lot of people have already made their minds up. The left can justify violence because the right is violent and the right can justify violence because the left is violent. and all of us who say no one is justified get set aside because you cant beat the group mentality that has been instilled on each side.

    So your Constitution, Declaration of Independence and laws say Americans are equal, you have a right to religion, you are free to pursue happiness. Now the KKK does NOT believe in or preach equality, the Neo-Nazis do not believe in or preach freedom of religion and both advocate and have exercised violence against various groups, robbing them of their safety and happiness. Yet they hide behind the 1st Amendment with the specific goal of TAKING OTHER RIGHTS (given in the same documents) AWAY from their targets. Their freedom, their safety, their religion and their equality. I do not have to physically attack someone to make them feel fear, unequal or oppressed. This is why protecting hate speech is fucked. They (Supremacists, Neo-Nazis & Alt-Right) are free, the victims are not.
