Anyone thinking there was a reason for them to legitimate that alt right youtube channel is plainly dumb. Or seriously dishonest with their fake "I mean, for their sake- this could really blow up you know? They should definitely take the time to legitimate muslim-haters. Why aren't they on Alex Jones. get on Alex Jones women. For your sake. Why are they exactly like Trump?"Post edited by Spiritual_Chaos on"Mostly I think that people react sensitively because they know you’ve got a point"0

Part of politics today is eliminating the story. While they may be trashy (I've never heard of them myself), they were in the halls of Congress. I'd like to see her play it a bit differently.The Juggler said:

What a bunch of absolute horse shit. How is walking away from a "reporter" (who is from a questionable news source, by the way), asking a question about something she's not informed about anything remotely close to the racism Trump spews on a daily fucking basis?Ledbetterman10 said:
Sure thing. I came across it in the "news" section of google after searching for "Omar Anitfa." Now, I think it's a conservative website so you may dismiss it as such. But remember, those are the only websites that would dare criticize prominent democrats. You think MSNBC has anything up about this?Spiritual_Chaos said:

I don't even know what The Rebel is. It's the page that was linked to in the article I got this from. What I see is a guy asking them if they're against an attempted terror attack by ANTIFA, and they wouldn't say they are. Keep being a fanboy though who won't dare criticize her. It's no different that the people that refuse to say anything negative about Trump.Spiritual_Chaos said:
Could it be this very nice news media whatever "The Rebel" that you seem to really dig - that they don't feel like answering questions to?Ledbetterman10 said:Here's AOC and Omar refusing to condemn the attempted domestic terror attack on an ICE facility by an ANTIFA member that showed up with an AR-15 and making threats. An ANTIFA member that has been described by Seattle's ANTIFA chapter as a "good friend and comrade who took a stand against the fascist detention center in Tacoma and became a martyr who gave his life to the struggle against fascism."
This isn't that different than Trump refusing to condemn the idiots in Charlottesville. Why didn't he condemn them? He knows they're wrong. He didn't condemn them because he likes them. Same thing here.

Unless of course you support domestic terrorist groups. In which case I wouldn't expect you to be critical of her here. But if you do support American domestic terrorist groups (wouldn't be surprised if you do since you seem to dislike America), do it because you like it, not because AOC does. Don't hero-worship.

And to especially compare it something ENORMOUS as Charlottesville which captured the attention of the entire nation and even prompted members of Trump's own cabinet to draw up resignation papers in response to Trump's words......I mean....come on. What a fucking stretch.
What you see here on Rebel, and then on Townhall (Katie Pavlich is fucking trash) is how the Fox News echo chamber works. This low level trash "conservative" site is trying to catch them in a gotcha moment (which didn't even seem to work as she didn't answer the question)....some site a little higher up the food chain like Townhall writes about it trying to drum up more hits....and then eventually it lands in Sean Hannity's hands and it's their newest outrage of the moment. Shockingly, these stories are all timed to coincide with whatever story is playing in the real word to distract and deflect. Same exact strategy they use with the Mueller investigation/Deep State's gonna git you sucker!
PS--I wouldn't have answered the question either. Good for her for not taking the obvious bait.0 -

I think that's a fair criticism. But at the same time, I did say in a previous post that it was from a conservative website that most people here would likely dismiss. Most of you guys dismiss everything from Fox News, so of course any conservative outlet of lesser prestige is going to be dismissed. So if you guys dismiss EVERYTHING that comes from right-leaning outfits, what difference does it make if the source of this was Rebel Media? If it was Fox News it'd be dismissed the same way. And since no liberal outlet would every call out these women, sometimes you have to dig deep...even if you get shit on your handsThe Juggler said:

Yeah but they're dealing with a reporter acting in bad faith here. The Rebel, right? So let's say they answer like you normally would to a legit reporter that they're not aware of the facts yada yada....then this fucking clown tells her his perception of what happened (given "The Rebel's reputation, it will surely be slanted in a certain way to make her look bad or box them in in some way) and then they're in a worse situation then just walking past them. They did the right thing.mrussel1 said:

"'No comments right now'? Did you guys hear that. She can't even condemn an attack by Antifa? Man these left winged crazies. What is there to comment? Trump doesn't condemn at once and everyone goes crazy -- Now this muslim-woman says "No comments right now" to an actively anti-muslim right winged youtube channel? These liberals I tell ya! ANTIFA supporters!"

Well then I very much take it back when I say "you guys." I'll change it "some guys" and issue you an apology. I totally agree that Fox News really isn't that bad. The opinion hosts are propagandists (so are the opinion hosts on the other channels) but the reporting is just fine.The Juggler said:

Prior to your post I hadn’t posted anything about it. Wallow in your faux outrage. Whateva.Ledbetterman10 said:
You get all your news (presumably) from left-wing outlets that aren't going to talk about ANTIFA attacks so you're not going find anything "reputable." And really? Because they consider ICE "evil" they should excuse attempts of violence against them? And quit bringing Trump into EVERYTHING. It's pathetic. Yes, he's a racist, bigoted moron. Nobody's arguing that. But he's not the only person in Washington worth taking a closer look at.Halifax2TheMax said:
I have yet to see reputable reporting of the incident and I’ll take Rebel News with a grain of salt but you go ahead and get hysterical and continue to make false equivalencies. So the Four didn’t condemn one event, an attack on a representation of what they consider evil while team trump treason seems to denigrate, encourage violence and not condemn his shitty followers actions on a daily basis. And gee, don’t fucking remember you condemning the armed stand off at the nature preserve or the bundy ranch situation so vehemently. Talk about hypocrisy? WhatevaLedbetterman10 said:
Jesus you're unbelievable. Who cares what the source is or what Rebel Media is? Or even their agenda is. Okay so that wikipedia link shows them to be a far-right outfit in the Breitbart realm. Okay fine. Not a place I'd go for my news with regularity. But that's where google took me and that guy had the credentials to be walking those halls asking questions. All three of those women could have just said yes to his question and condemned the attack. But of course they didn't. And of course you're trying to make excuses for them. I get it though. Trump is awful. They are in direct opposition of Trump. So of course you're going to defend them. Whatever.Halifax2TheMax said:Any chance that video is “doctored?” Regardless, you should be proud getting your news from such a reputable source. Nah, they ain’t got no agenda.

And the Bundy standoff was like 3 years ago. I don't recall any discussion about it. But since we're talking about it now (for some reason), sure I condemn it.
And I love how you say I'm being "hysterical." I posted two videos that are relevant to this thread because AOC is involved. You and Spiritual Chaos are the ones with your panties in a bunch over it. You guys seem like the hysterical ones.

I think a potential good reason they didn’t answer was if they knew this news source and just won’t talk.

Always picking and choosing what you want to respond to. Yeah Bundy standoff, "faux outrage." "Whateva" is right. If you want to minimize they're silence because you don't respect Rebel media (or whatever it's called), that's fine. But to say it was "an attack on a representation of what they consider evil" almost sounds like your justifying domestic terrorism. So what if they consider ICE evil? It's not. And even if it was, that's not a good reason to attack if you're an ANTIFA maniac.

I agree it's a non-story, but one of our members brought it up, so here we are.The Juggler said:Yeah but they're dealing with a reporter acting in bad faith here. The Rebel, right? So let's say they answer like you normally would to a legit reporter that they're not aware of the facts yada yada....then this fucking clown tells her his perception of what happened (given "The Rebel's reputation, it will surely be slanted in a certain way to make her look bad or box them in in some way) and then they're in a worse situation then just walking past them. They did the right thing.
I see politicians walk away from legitimate reporters without issuing a comment all the time. This "story" does not deserve our time.
How about two scenarios:
1. She knows who they are:
"Sorry, I don't provide comments to right wing shills/partisan hacks/apologists for a racist/propagandists (take your pick)", and be done with it.
2. She doesn't know who they are:
"I don't know the story, I can't comment until I learn more". If they press or try to tell the story "Sorry, I don't know who you are and who you represent, so you'll have to forgive me if I don't take your information as fact. I'll rely on news sources who I know".
That's how I would have handled it. I would have jumped at an opportunity to insult them if I knew who they were.0 -
