I'd like to hear the rest of what he says after the video cuts off. I'm not sure he's advocating for people to read their writings or - Krusty Jul 5, 13:48 10
- OK, after reading a little more, take it the bad way. -- nm - loosilu Jul 5, 13:57 4
  - *always* take it the bad way! -- nm - Jovian Jul 5, 13:58 3
    - I don't want to be hasty. -- nm - loosilu Jul 5, 14:00 2
      - That he actually used Pol Pot, of all people, is the tell. - Jovian Jul 5, 14:04 1
        
        Yeah I didn't get that. -- nm - loosilu Jul 5, 14:07
- or just a long winded way of defending Moms for Liberty using a Hitler quote and actually citing him. -- nm - Jovian Jul 5, 13:57
- Yeah, I can't tell. He may be referring to the far right misusing quotes. -- nm - loosilu Jul 5, 13:55 3
  - He's a right wing a-hole himself but I just can't see him telling people they should listen to dictators and lefty communists. - Krusty Jul 5, 14:04 2
    - (he's a CFNJ) -- nm - hollywood big shot Jul 5, 14:06
    - I get it, it's not something you want to be mistaken about. - loosilu Jul 5, 14:06
Hey, Hal Wyler literally told us to talk to terrorists. -- nm - Max Jul 5, 13:19
well they know exactly who their messiah currently is, so its time to dumb down the classic dictators for their masses. - Jovian Jul 5, 13:17
Ban books on diversity but highlight right wing propaganda. Great job there North Carolina. -- nm - Pippy Quintas Jul 5, 13:15 12
- well, but Stalin and Mao, which is kind of confusing - Reagen Jul 5, 13:18 11
  - I'm pretty sure he's being taken wrong here and is not advocating for these dictators. -- nm - Krusty Jul 5, 13:51 6
    - he's not and he is. - Jovian Jul 5, 14:00 5
      - That video doesn't tell me enough. He gets cut off. -- nm - Krusty Jul 5, 14:02 4
        
        Just read more about him and who he was speaking to. It's the book burner moms. -- nm - loosilu Jul 5, 14:03 3
        
        ie The book burners who just used an Adolf Hitler quote on their newsletter two weeks ago. -- nm - Jovian Jul 5, 14:06
        
        I know who he is and to whom he was speaking. I want to know what he says after that tweet because I know who he is and where he's talking. - Krusty Jul 5, 14:06 1
        
        If you find it, I'd like to see it. -- nm - loosilu Jul 5, 14:08
  - you think this disgusting overweight Uncle Tom here on stage has any idea the differences between the fascists he just named dropped? -- nm* - Jovian Jul 5, 13:21 3
    - totalitarian != fascist. Neither Stalin nor Mao were fascists. -- nm* - Reagen Jul 5, 13:24 2
      - heh. I did almost just say 'despots' instead of fascist. -- nm - Jovian Jul 5, 13:26 1
        
        despots is true enough. -- nm - Reagen Jul 5, 13:27
