Saying there are plenty of good liberals and conservatives is one thing

Saying there are plenty of "good people" who are white nationalists is something else. And to be clear I would say the same if a Democrat POTUS said there were "very fine people" in Antifa.

yes i would say all American should listen to a variety of news sources and to take it a step further they should seek out having their preconceived notions challenged.


Go post this on one of those liberal websites and see how quickly your arse is reamed by them.

Please report back to us to let us know how it turned out for you.

I'm a white guy who is a nationalist, and I'm a good person. It's not something else at all.

the difference is that i don't deny left wing media exists, unlike many of you who do deny right wing media exists or at least attempt to pretend like it's much smaller than it is.


I actually agree with this. Media, in general, is biased in one form or another. It's all a balancing act. The further left CNN, NBC< and ABC go, the further right FOX goes. I would say there are a few balanced podcasts out there. Ben Shapiro comes to mind, despite what liberal media outlets would have you believe. I can't think of any on the left.

As far as the attacks go, I do have to disagree with you there. These type of attacks, politically driven, do tend to come from the left far more than they do the right. It's also never a middle of the road liberal. It's always the alt-left angry cry babies who eventually formed ANTIFA. Funny thing is, the fold like paper when stood up to. They attack the trump supporters who appear to be weak. One of them is going to end up shot one day.

Trump supporters should recognize that progressives are extremely angry and triggered about the 2016 election.

Their level of tolerance for anything that challenges their world view is even lower than normal. If you are supporting Trump in the open, you should expect progressives to act irrationally around you.

Any chance this was a 'hate' crime?

No word on who the victim is, so hard to tell for now. What's interesting is that none of the local news stations I've checked are reporting this story. Most do tend left.

White nationalism is a type of nationalism or pan-nationalism which holds the belief that white people are a race[1] and seeks to develop and maintain a white national identity.[2][3][4] Its proponents identify with and are attached to the concept of a white nation.[5] White nationalists say they seek to ensure the survival of the white race, and the cultures of historically white states. They hold that white people should maintain their majority in majority-white countries, maintain their political and economic dominance, and that their cultures should be foremost.[4] Many white nationalists believe that miscegenation, multiculturalism, immigration of nonwhites and low birth rates among whites are threatening the white race,[6] and some argue that it amounts to white genocide.[6]

The Unite the Right rally, also known as the Charlottesville rally, was a far-right rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, United States, from August 11 to 12, 2017.[4][5] Its stated goal was to oppose the removal of a statue of Robert E. Lee from Emancipation Park.[6][7] Another organizer, Nathan Damigo, said the rally was intended to unify the white nationalist movement in the United States.[8] Protesters included white supremacists, white nationalists, neo-Confederates, Klansmen, neo-Nazis, and various militias. Some of the marchers chanted racist and antisemitic slogans, carried semi-automatic rifles, swastikas, Confederate battle flags, and anti-Muslim and antisemitic banners.[7][9][10]
