ETA: I said "shouldn't" instead of "should" which is probably part of the confusion.


I'll accept that.

The truth is that those folks were communist and we should have rounded their asses up and got them out of the country. If we would have all this shite right now would not be happening.


Hitler warned you. Hitler literally tried to do that, even had the Haavara agreement with the zionist jews to move them to Palestine. And he was moving them until Britain said we aren't going to let you keep moving them anymore. You guys are sounding more and more fascist nazi day by day.

What were the charges against them?

And did they receive a trial before a jury of their peers before being 'imprisioned?'

I'm not saying anything negative about anyone. And I don't promote violence.

I know you're not, but you need to make slow-drip coffee, not throw quad espressos across the table.

My bad, considering the thread title, I honestly thought you were citing McCarthyism as having led to people being political prisoners.

Had I known you intended to go after the House Un-American Activities Committee (which was created before McCarthy and which McCarthy was never a member) led largely by Democrat Chairmen who held these people in contempt, I would have mentioned the same thing.

But isn't the real reason they refused to testify because it would expose them to perjury charges after having previously testified in California? They were not heroes. They were avoiding a more serious felony conviction.

You're probably right but I've been emboldened with the literally hitler stuff.

Someone should tell libs that if Obama cared more about Russia during his presidency instead of thinking the cold war was over... maybe they wouldn't have this problem now.


Yeah... that pivot to Asia is working stupendously. China is really respecting us these days.

So I guess just coming out and saying hitler did nothing wrong isn't the way to go about it?

No wonder my coworker laughs at me.

I do know that is what someone should do. In this case that is what Stefan is doing. It is what Trump is doing. But if I do what the nearly mainstream guys are doing then what am I really needed for? I am here to push the overton window further and help people realize they've been lied to for a long time. You will just have to be the counterbalance still further right but not as far right if I tilt too far.

With that said, here is a classic The European Grammar of Self-Intolerance [Jonathan Bowden]

I'm sure you know, but just in case, know you won't be well received if you try talking that stuff with plebs. so don't go posting it on your facebook or something

I'm sorry. I can't find the part that says they were arrested. Or, that they were imprisoned. Or, that the charge was 'being a communist.'

Oh that hurts me. I was hoping for some good links. I guess I'll just go to 4 chan and ask for some new reading material.
