Because they're shitting up board memes with their constant bitching. That's why.

Can someone hop in the Way Back Machine and let me know if there was as much air time dedicated by sports media pundits to decrying and villainizing muslim extremists and their sympathizers the day after the Pulse shooting? Or was the talk then "It's bad, but #NotAll, and sports are a release for people so now on to minicamps"? Or even San Bernadino? My gut reaction is that the tone, tenor, and amplitude of each event's respective coverage was different, but I honestly cannot recall.

For me I think it's more of a habit. It's like a second nature to put the show on at 1pm. Then politics and SJW stuff starts and I usually turn it off. Sometimes I do keep listening. Then I come here and see what you guys are saying just to make sure that I'm not the only crazy one. Sports talk was an outlet away from all our bullshit, now it's inundating our sports. It's kinda depressing for me. I do sometimes go a few days even weeks without listening now that Goff is there.

These backwards, knuckle-dragging Neo-Nazi groups have been marching in broad daylight for decades. This isn't a shocking new development.

It may have been a bigger group (I don't know how many there were) and I think social media has a lot to do with it. "Professional" protestors who are there with the intention of causing chaos don't help, either.

There have been towns in which these groups have petitioned for a permit to march, after much consternation have been granted a permit to march, and rather than deal with the headache of counter protests, the security involved, and general upheaval, local officials organized buses to take people someplace, like to a mall or something, and discouraged people from showing up to yell at the Nazis. No counter protests means these groups do not get the reaction they want, they march down an empty street, and that's pretty much the end of it.

Would it be fair to call today's Nazis, whether anime or actual, the successors to the white nationalists and militia movements of the 1990s? You could argue that we've been building to this point for the better part of a quarter-century. Trump is only a symptom, not the disease by any means.

I have been asking myself since Saturday why all of the sudden in 2017 have the statues become such a thing to cause death and rioting. They have been around awhile and I recall flag issues a way back but something seems weird. All of the sudden people woke up and were truly hurt by the statues.

The 90s groups were some of the first people to colonize the Internet. But yeah, it's much the same movement. Obama getting elected, continued immigration, poor economics, and Trump getting elected have given them a shot in the arm.

The 90s people had that quasi-religious thing, too. They recruited the same dead-eyed, disaffected, and often mentally ill (or mentally struggling) people. Hell, they even asked me to join.

Lee Highway runs for a long way in Northern Virginia.

I'm wondering how long before the name change.

The biggest horror I experienced in Evanston was a botched snap on a punt at the end of NU vs Miami of Ohio game in 95.

they'd have been undefeated (in the reggalar season) if not for that. and blowing that huge lead.


Yep. Couldn't believe it. That team wasn't good enough to be undefeated but they did find ways to win. I'm also not sure they don't win the Rose Bowl if Fitz didn't break his leg vs Iowa and the kicker didn't blow out his knee during the Wisconsin blowout.

that was an ass-kicking, the game against wisconsin. they still could have won that game . . . i was begging for USC to switch QBs, but, unlike the rest of the season, they stuck with the hot hand. great season, though.

It's leftist hivemind stuff. They'd be burning shit at the G8 instead of throwing piss balloons at reporters. This just fits into a narrative they adopted about hate speech not being free speech, which actually started on college campuses about any speech that hurts someone's feelings should not be allowed. They call everyone Nazis to justify the violence. They call everyone alt-right that doesn't agree with them. It appears to be quite effective.

I've never had any qualms when a conservative would bemoan the left leaning media. As a liberal I have always been able to accept that reality. But it has entered an entire new dimension after Trump. At some point, the people on the far left arguing that Trump will destroy the country are going to do everything in their power to make sure that happens.

I was wondering about that too. STAY OUT OF NEO NAZI BUSINESS!!


It was more the responses from theroot.com and BLM about how white people shouldn't speak until further notice after Charlottesville because a white woman got killed by a white guy and 1000 white nationalists were screaming mostly anti-semitic slogans pertaining to their belief in a "deep state" which is alt-right dogma. And the ranks of those clowns might or might not be overtly racist but probably will find sanctuary with white supremacists when they find none anywhere else.

The media is doing a fine job lumping everyone not on the left into one tidy group of deplorable. My mother said last night she believes Bannon is a Nazi despite admitting to never even googling the guy. I said how could she know that? "Because that's what they say." When I tried to track down the root of that claim it is attributed to a Time article that simply claims Bannon is on the alt-right and then that has been conveniently lumped into white supremacy, because why not? Time is certainly not the magazine I grew up reading occasionally in the High School library. To say they are left leaning would be a massive understatement. But ultimately it doesn't matter which way they lean as long as they are able to be honest and accurate.

There is most certainly fake news. But for more than a decade now it is the lack honesty and quality in 'legitimate' journalism that I fear the most.
