Once you are accused, you are guilty. There is nothing you can do to defend yourself.

People are so terrified of being accused and found guilty they go around accusing everyone else.

Once the media decides you're racist, the facts are irrelevant, your opinions, your beliefs, all irrelevant.

It's very Salem Witch Trials, very Spanish Inquisition.

And it only takes one comment construed as "racist" from one's entire life history to prove guilt.

Anyone can be accused and found "guilty" if it becomes convenient.

Just think, someone could record on their phone you making a comment in private perceived as racist if taken out of context and that video could ruin your entire life.

I know freedom of speech doesn't mean freedom from consequences but that's messed up.

Once you define your enemy as so evil that they must be stopped, violence is justified. Enter the Nazis, commies, and progressives

Good take. Never thought about it that way but I'd say it makes sense.

So, you're comparing people fighting neo-Nazis, to actual Nazis? Interesting.

This meme might apply

I agree with everything except "the new witch Hunt". It's always been the fall back plan. IMO It's defined liberals for a while now. Debate one, watch it come down to this when facts don't go in their favor.

I will not let you normalize ANTIFA. It is, always has been and always will be a anarcocommunist group. We as a society do not need fricking commies and Nazis fighting in the streets with clubs. Both sides deserve to have the full weight of the DOJ come crashing down on them.

No, I also think they're assholes. I'm very supportive of counter protesting. But using violence as a tool is the wrong way to do it. You have to be strong and and resist all urges to want to punch a Nazi. But violence just brings you down to their level.

There's a reason why MLK was the most influential civil rights leader. Images of being attacked, while not fighting back, is what turned your average, same American, away from the racists.
