Liam Neeson: Rape, Revenge, and Race Relations

[bennyboy]

Fun fact, sjw hysteria was actively manufactured by the alt reich and disseminated on every social media platform for it's noted ability to serve as an alt-lite gateway to what they call normies.  People who would reject their arguments and framing if the identified white supremacist theme was blatantly overt.  The general notion appears to be that since the narrative of victimization works (the alt reich is certain that what other people call racism is just a false victimization narrative), it's a tool that they could use to frame opposition to their ideology as hypocritical in any number of ways.

SJW hysteria doesn't need to be manufactured.  It's writ large all over internet comments, all over Youtube, and right here in these threads.

Now, if you want to say that SJW hysteria isn't typical of the PC left as a whole, or of the left as a whole, then fair enough.  I know there are moderates who can intelligently argue the points of the left-- I consider myself one of them.  I can explain to Republicans, for example, why I think releasing prisoners or improving schools in black areas will lead to an increased GDP and more pie for all, and allow for a reduction in government.  I can explain why health care might be expected to reduce crime rates.

It's called frustration at a white man's lack of understanding and gall to act like he is qualified to lecture people of color about racism, benny. It's easy for a privileged person to remain relatively calm and appear less "hostile" compared to someone who has faced oppression and obstacles because of their own skin color (and gender, as well).

That said, "screechiness" is more your perception than it seems reality here.

I don't think so.  Take Athena's entrance into this thread.  She was typing in ALL-CAPS, because it's TEXT and she can't actually SCREECH, so she had to SIMULATE screeching.

Please understand, Grandizer, that this is not an umbrella term for the left that I'm using.  I don't apply it to you, for example.  But people like you aren't the reason Trump is going to get re-elected.

I want the democrats to win.  I think the immoderate and intolerant far-left is likely to prevent that from happening.  I want the left represented by people like you and Shell, or by Sam Harris, or by Stephen Colbert, rather than those who express themselves like Athena and Khem or Bill Maher do.  If moderate voices prevail, then there's a much better chance for the compromises and common ground that democracy is meant to foster.

I'll give you a perfect example: Dave Chappelle's bit about the last election-- he joked about knowing right away Trump was going to win when he showed up to vote, and he saw a bunch of tractors and stuff in the parking lot.  But he also said: "You know what I didn't see?  I didn't see any Deplorables."  That kind of understanding is the right way, in my view.
