    No sympathy from me. If you're a f'n nazi in 2017 and you get punched in the face it's because you're a nazi and it's 2017

    Sympathy isn't required to decide you're not going to punch the guy.
    Agreed. I just don't have any sympathy FOR the guy who got punched. Dirtbags get what they get in my mind
    except who decides who a dirtbag is? some people (might) think gays or a black man are dirtbags. by your definition the person that thinks that way would be ok punching a gay man or a black man. that's why you shouldn't use that it's ok to punch this guy no matter how big of a scumbag he is. obviously he is a piece of shit human being but we have to be very careful as a society to allow violence based on what our beliefs might be...because some people have some f'd up beliefs.
    As a society, I am pretty comfortable with these general guidelines...

    Punching black people for being black = not okay

    Punching gays for being gay = not okay

    Punching Nazis for being Nazis = Just fine
    of course and that is how rational people think but there are many irrational people out there and you can't give them such an opening for violence based on twisted beliefs. irrational people can't or won't grasp general guidelines like you have above. it's a slippery slope to allow violence based on one's beliefs.

    I hear what you are saying and I don't necessarily disagree. That said, I think irrational people are going to do irrational things regardless of what is deemed acceptable.

    I don't think it is ok to punch anyone. But go ahead and give it your best shot.

    WTF does "triggered" mean?

    We need a stupid thread that posts a definition when these political catch phrases materialize. I'm still not sure who "snow flakes' are either and who it is dissing. It's like I'm back in the 5th grade.

    Don't forget another term recently popularized in public discourse by this thread's namesake: cuck.
    Had been wondering how it had gone from a porn niche to insult du jour on social media....reading a facebook comment thread about this punch, I was directed to an article describing how it was Spencer.
    Snowflake and triggered seem pretty basic to understand....I think that fake angry-Con mouthpiece Tomi is the one popularizing snowflake.

    Maybe that's because the current president acts like an immature 5th grader.
    Not a regularly behaved 5th grader.

    triggered is an emotional response, instead of intellectual. it's almost like a "gotcha" or "made you look" kind of nonsense. 5th grade is a very accurate assessment.

    porn star jenna jameson showed up on my twitter feed over the weekend (i used to follow trump, I deleted him as I couldn't take it anymore), and I noticed she was a trump supporter. I was a bit surprised at this, but I obviously didn't know much about her. I asked a few respectful questions, to which she initially responded, but then I guess she looked at my profile, saw that I was from winnipeg, and said "I see you're from winnipeg. stay out of big boy politics, iceback". And the sheer amount of hate spewing from her followers was amazing. I said nothing disrespectful to her, just asked her if she was ok with his cabinet picks, and I got attacked with a vengeance I couldn't understand.

    apparently asking a question and getting mean-spirited responses makes me the snowflake? it doesn't make any fucking sense.

    she also tweeted "stop islam". that gave me a bit of a window into her mentality.
    Darwinspeed, all. 

    Cheers,

    HFD

    Unsung... don't get worked up. This is just some nazi f**ker getting punched.

    If it was some random dude minding his own business... then we can say "wtf?" But this isn't some guy minding his own business... this is a guy actively promoting hatred and as such... he's fair game.

    I disagree. My position has been stated. You can't just go around hitting people that you don't agree with.
    I never saw you post so much when the topic was how some totally innocent minority got attacked though. Just weird how you only really seem to care so much when it's a neo-Nazi being sucker punched.

    i love it when someone openly calls me buttercup or snowflake. it just shows their ignorance and lack of originality. no need to argue further with that person

    i'd rather be a snowflake than a steamy, stinking pile of shit like spencer, lahren, and members of the current administration.

    but that is just me.

    Didn't you vote for said administration? I remember you going back and forth right before the election. Just wondering what caused the change in heart.

    Apologies for the error.

    That's it! I knew that Alive was in there somewhere. He's probably basking in the glory of Trump as President and a complete fuck like Eric Greitens as his Governor.

    maybe he is like me. just too busy to talk politics anymore.

    If blatant racism and bigotry doesn't trigger you, you know you've got a serious problem.
