    we aren’t going to agree. I think posting his shit and calling it “a bit” ignores the hate that is behind it. It’s the same opinion I have about trump “being funny” and the newscaster guy who has a thread on here. We just have a different opinion. It’s not like I don’t understand what you guys mean it’s just that I don’t agree.

    He’s a dude with piece of shit beliefs who is being a bit theatrical about said shit beliefs so people look at him. Both can be and are true.

    it’s easy for you to excuse, ignore, forgive whatever word you want use his hate because he is funny. My stance is we shouldn’t post hateful assholes. some are okay with giving this POS a voice on here. I’m not.

    We shouldn’t amplify his hate on here because it’s a bit. He should be called a hateful POS and ignored for it. Hate under the cover of “humor” is still hate.

    you create an argument out of thin air and work backwards to prove it.

    I haven’t seen anyone acknowledge that he’s not hateful. So you’re just kind of complaining to complain at this point.

    If I had to guess there’s a whole subsection of grifters pretending to be RWNJs not for right wing engagement but for left wing engagement and he falls into this category

    okay what word would you use? Amplifying his message because it’s a “bit and funny” is wrong imo because it ignores the hate and racism that is at the core of his bullshit. It’s the same opinion I’ve had about others like him so no I’m not creating an argument. It’s what I truly believe. I also do believe some are more willing to look past his hate because they don’t understand the harm it causes some.

    it’s a post on a message board no one here is amplifying anything in any meaningful way by posting some random tweet.

    I’m being accused of not arguing in good faith (I don’t believe my argument) that I’m complaining for nothing but that isn’t the truth.

    Amplifying his hate is wrong. We shouldn’t post his shit. But, I’ll ask this if everyone is acknowledging he is a pos that he is hatful then why continue to post shit from someone like that? Is it 2009 and we’re just doing it for the lulz?

    And I’m only arguing about posting it on the aforementioned message board. I’m saying this message board should be better.

    Because not everyone reads every post and knows who he is? That’s why spagett initially commented if I’m not mistaken? Either way you’re being super west coast dbl right now, so I’m expecting you to amplify this for 2-3 more pages for no good reason.

    I assume JGator1 didnt know who he was and posted it because he thought it was ridiculous and spagett obviously didn’t know who he was so that is why I responded with what I did. After that I’m being accused of bitching for no reason and arguing in bad faith. Which is bullshit. So I’ll stop beating around the bush. It’s easy for white people to say “it’s just a bit. Stop being so sensitive”. You’re not the target of his hate so the lulz are worth it to you. I don’t have they luxury. I can’t excuse or accept hate for the lulz.

    I haven’t said I think it’s funny. I don’t. I think he’s a dipshit. I was saying he makes his abhorrent views over the top to get more attention. That’s it. I didn’t say I enjoyed them in any way.

    Also, don’t exactly appreciate being lumped in with “white” behavior simply because I’m white. Especially when I don’t post in that way. I’m not sure if I’ve ever used ‘lulz’ in a serious or not serious manner.

    I’m not lumping you or Tobias in and if I sounded like it my bad I apologize. You haven’t said it was funny but it’s clear some on here do think it’s funny.

    Maybe I’m articulating my position poorly. So I’ll try to explain what I mean. For some it’s a difference without a distinction. What I mean is it doesn’t matter if it’s 80% real and 20% exaggeration. The hate is the driving force, it being a bit doesn’t make that less for some. It’s not 100% parody. My objective when he is brought up is to shine a light on who he is so he isn’t dismissed as a comedian when he in fact is a political commentator. He is a rwnj with a history of hate. My problem is being told that I’m just arguing for the sake of argument and that I don’t honestly believe what I do. My issue is Tobias admitting that the dude is a POS yet going to find another tweet to illustrate why I’m overreacting and it’s a bit. My belief is that the site would be better without posting shit from this asshole and the newscaster (whose name escapes right now) that everyone was saying was hilarious and also a bit.

    If you told me some piece of shit shock-jockey news network type was named Nick Adams that’s picture I’d have in my head.

    Also Kyrie is an idiot and I’m glad Dump has to root for him now.

    I don't think anyone is excusing him. He's a POS. Sometimes he posts over the top shit as part of a bit and some people don't grasp that he's doing that on purpose to drive engagement and are like "whoa is he serious?" No, he's not. He's purposefully going over the top with insane shit to get clicks. He's still a hateful POS, but he also knows what he's doing with his bit to create clicks. Both are true. He's a hateful POS willing to tweet anything to get clicks.
