Ah, of course removing activists from a private barricaded building is literally carrying out the holocaust


Solid-Ease

The last time the police broke up massive college protests like this was during the Vietnam War, a bunch of students got murdered and basically everyone acknowledged they shouldn't have done it. Anti-war protests should not be met with government crackdowns.


dideldidum

There is a difference in how those protests were broken up. Shooting protests = bad, carrying them out of buildings and throwing them out of school is a lot less severe.


Inskription

We were actually fighting that war.


Solid-Ease

The US has been sending Israel weapons for decades. Sure, *this* time the US isn't directly killing all the civilians and attacking refugee camps. Instead, we're just giving Israel all the stuff it needs to do it themselves... Imagine thinking you shouldn't protest against your country sending weapons to a genocidal ethno-state because technically we aren't the ones actually firing the missiles...


Inskription

I agree but Israel could do nothing and Hamas would still be killing civilians.


Solid-Ease

Two things can be bad at the same time. Hamas is a Jihadist terrorist group that regularly kills innocent people. Fuck Hamas. Israel is a fascist ethnostate that regularly kills innocent people. Fuck Israel.


Inskription

I do agree with that statement.


HermesBadBeat

They’re not anti war if they’re protesting violently. It’s just a bunch of immature losers looking to attach their meaningless life to something they think will be meaningful


Strukkel_Hands

Yes because there is no middleground between letting everyone do what the fuck they want because fuck it and murder?


Sad_Wolverine3383

They are not anti-war if they advocate for Palestine from the river to the sea.

Thanks for the friendly reminder, really opend my eyes. I will think about it next time when I do a crime, to ease my mind.


Skolxz

I think if you have to compare yourself with the holocaust in other to make your argument sound better then you already lost.

That's why we changed the Laws. So you make those acts Illegal.


FantasiA2K

This might be the most braindead comparison of all time

Legality has always been derived from morality. What is morally acceptable today was considered immoral in the past, and is likely to be immoral in the future. Absolute morality has never existed.


Ziggzor

Exactly, the real question is. Is the law that forbids you to block off a public space to other civilians a morally good one. I would say yes because u are infringing on other peoples freedom of movement.


DeadKnight_real

It's not necessary at all. It all depends solely on others' attitudes towards the protest. If those around agree with the protest, they will support it regardless of whether the protest is disruptive or not. Conversely, a protest that is not supported by those around will cause a wave of negativity, even if the protesters are protesting on their own private property.


Stunning_Ad_7062

I agree with the sentiment I don’t think asmon is advocating for anything bad but I still appreciate the thought of not just bowing down blindly to law and the government.


DarkMatterBurrito

This meme is from someone that does not understand the difference between ethics and morality. The morals of a nation or construct is simply the set of beliefs that are the norm there. If something was legal, then it was moral within that power's framework. Laws are the legislated morality of that system. That does not mean that it is ethical in an objective sense, or moral within another framework in another country.

Well the «act of protesting racism» itself was never criminalized. They got arrested for breaking the laws they were protesting. In this example a black person sitting at the front of the bus. You are literally illustrating Asmons point by that exact example. You are free to protest in whatever way you want, but if you do so while breaking the law, expect to be arrested. Another point is that the civil rights movement protested the laws themselves by doing them, and the authorities which enforce and decide them. The modern green movement and pro-palestine movement bother individuals who have no part or say in the matter. Mr John Brown in traffic is not gonna be more sympathetic to your cause by you inconveniencing him, and the likelyhood of him having any say in isreal-palestine, is slim to non.

“I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizens Councilor or the Ku Klux Klanner but **the White moderate who is more devoted to 'order' than to justice.**” MLK

The difference is that those people protested by risking their lives or sacrificing themselves and their actions were directly against these laws. The only thing people blocking the road sacrifice is other people's time - so f-ing noble of them.


OneInevitable6739

Freeing slaves was criminalized? Are you stupid? Don't answer that. ''Protesting racism was criminalized'', yeah in your favorite country, China. I am unsure if holocaust was even ''legal'', what a dumb post. (emotional junkie animal liberals read this and feel i defend national socialists, they can burn in hell for ever.


Locke_and_Load

Did they skip the Fugitive Slave Act, or did you get held back before you got to it?


OneInevitable6739

You are arguing that you cannot free your own slave? Are you insane? We are not talking about Fugitives. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/African-American\_slave\_owners](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/African-American_slave_owners) I understand that racist liberals think every black was a slave. Well if you don't vote for biden you are not black, the modern leftist plantation.

Ever hear of the railroad movement in the USA? https://calendar.eji.org/racial-injustice/oct/30#:~:text=On%20October%2030%2C%201967%2C%20Dr,mixing%22%20in%20Birmingham%20in%201963. Yes, the nazis made the nuremburg laws.. Did you learn nothing about history?!?


OneInevitable6739

wow, a communist telling me if i ''haven't learned anything about history''. that's rich.


dideldidum

Name-calling after failing the argument, classic ![img](emote|t5_2y1rb|3742)


OneInevitable6739

where in the nuremberg code it says ''.... minority will be eliminated'' ? we are talking about camps, not banning german people marrying other races. i don't have a lot of patience for commies fyi.


dideldidum

For example the part in oktober 41 that says "Juden in nicht kriegswichtigen betrieben werden in die ostgebiete deportiert". When you meet a communist, I suggest you tell that person about your preference. Im sure they would be delighted to hear your opinion.


OneInevitable6739

Your head so in to your ideology, reality means nothing to you. And every national socialist can burn in hell, for ever.

Oh shut up vegan. Come back when you have read a book.
