This will be the legacy of Donald Trump and his ilk. This is why the right wants to dismantle education and have their people be taught by right wing influencers.

Jubilee should stop platforming fascist influencers who want to get their grift set up.

As for these gleeful soft boy nazis....well I'd ship them all to the Donetsk front for a year.

It's going to be much easier to mold new fascists if you stop teaching that fascism is bad.

If I recall, a bunch of the participants have been fired, so there are some mixed benefits. Fascists shouldn't be platformed, except in rare cases to mock them for their idiotic beliefs.

That just hurt my brain to watch. That wasn't people having an informed discussion. It was just morons wanting to say their favorite argument point regardless of whether it had any basis in reality.
I've seen the same setup on the conservative side. Get a group of idiots that think they're liberals and let them look foolish. It's all so the audience can feel superior and have a good sneer at those fools on the other side.
Performance art for halfwits.

They may be idiots but they are also MAGA true believers. Just like yourself.

You'd think so?
  • Republicans took us to Iraq.
  • Republicans vehemently opposed financial aid in 2008.
  • Republicans HATED a Black President and fought to shrink the economy under austerity.
  • Republicans had to be dragged kicking and screaming to act on a Pandemic.
  • Republicans are siding with Vlad the Butcher over Europe.
And not once. NOT EVER ONCE. Will any of you articulate an actual argument with reason and logic to support any of your actions or grand designs.
You call it performance art, I call it your every waking moment as you try to drag us all down into your misbegotten hellscape of an alt-reality.

I don't care what they believe, and I don't think their brand of stupid is any better or worse than yours.
"I don't care what they believe" while commenting on what they believe.

BTW - If you ever want to have a discussion on any topic I'll be willing to entertain it. Meanwhile go back to supporting your pedophile bestie. Proud of that? How are those tents in Camp Trump

If I had time, I post Nixons bs and Reagan bs as well.

There were at least 3 "known" RWNJ online influencers in that group.

And I think you're being really generous on the "for a year" part. Might last a week.

I'm sure that some place that isn't instant death but is more like living hell on earth could be located for them to enjoy.

Don't reply/discuss the actual topic of the thread but deflect and play the whataboutism card.

To be fair, much of the content and context of the topic is tied up in a video. To wit he was both describing it and deriding us for making it a topic in the first place.
Scolding his reply would yield more merit, if the OP had given us a breakdown of the video. Instead I'd view it as mere tit for tat.

I directly addressed the topic. It's a staged performance designed to make you feel good about yourself. It's absolutely oozing vindication.

We have people in this White House that exabit the SAME behavior and that behavior is being normalized and passed down.

That's the point of this fucking thread you idiot.

No, that would be the conservative hero Ben Shapiro. The twat who throws out a bunch of inaccurate facts and opinions in a flurry trying to throw people off balance, yet he still loses.

What really bugs me is the videos don't seem to change any minds about what's going on.

It's not about changing the minds of the video participants. It's capturing the audiences that might stumble upon these videos who could be influenced one way or another. Politics is a bit of theater - you're putting on a show for the audience; you're not (always) trying to only convince your fellow actors.

That’s because minds aren’t changed via facts. In fact I’m guessing most of the participants have doubled down on their views.

From the limited amount I’ve read, changing someone’s mind is a slow process that simply revolves around the person who’s trying to change the other persons views by asking questions that allows the person to question their beliefs and allowing them to find and explore facts from themselves.

The hope with the jubilee videos isn’t to change the minds of the participants but hopefully open the minds of those who are watching. Which is the same point of these forums for some (myself included).

almost all of the people talking to mehdi are the least freedom loving, democracy defending people around. Ready to drive off the cliff into a fascist theocracy, laughing all the way down. The privileged mindset is not surprising.

Yes, i watched the whole thing, its the bonkers shit show you think it will be. Mehdi looks physically drained by the end
