David Hogg is back and has picked up a few more topics to pontificate on

[Seano]

We sure give this kid a lot of attention on here. The only time I hear his name is from people making threads who hate him.

You always comment on it too. The kid puts himself out there. He's fair game. Not sure why you feel the need to protect this kid in particular.

I'm feeding the beast?

Anytime someone clicks a link, watches a video, or shares a link. That helps support that content. So if you are watching David Hogg's videos, you are in fact supporting him and enabling him to make more content.

I just made a generic comment about kids these days being overconfident with respect to their education, calm down, no one is feeding any beast.

My point to you was any idiot can make and post a video. The "feeding the beast" is just generalized, about why people post these crazy views and how they make money. The people watching these videos, even though they hate these videos, are definitely feeding the beast.(or spreading links to websites they hate)

Sure, many pundits get just at many clicks from haters as they do fans.

This is the wr though. Threads will be made and people will naturally comment. This is chicken feed, not some slaughter house.

It was an all inclusive statement about the internet.

Ignoring something like this isn't a good option either.

I accept your first post as a meta commentary, just not the "you guys" part as it applies to my criticisms.

I'm actually a Twitch subscriber, which is also kinda funny. Chess is a hobby of mine, there's people I follow there. But I will say, things end up finding an equilibrium, even in Twitch land.

This kid is pretty funny, really. He justifies illegals because of stolen land and in the process, seems to go full-on-crazy racist without realizing it.

His words:
“The people that we’re advocating for, that we’re fighting for, are the people you don’t see on this stage. The people we’re advocating and fighting for are the over 10 million undocumented people that live in this country and are disproportionately affected by gun violence, who are so afraid they’re going to be deported that the crime goes unreported,” he said.


Offering an American guilt complex as the moral justification for illegal immigration, Hogg reiterated the popular progressive notion of the evils of colonization.


“Mass shootings have been happening for the last couple of centuries, ever since the advent of the gun. If we want to talk about mass shootings one of the first things we have to acknowledge is the battle of Wounded Knee, where over 100 Native Americans were slaughtered by the United States government,” he told the students. “We also have to acknowledge the fact that disproportionately Native Americans are underrepresented in our government and we also have to acknowledge how wrong it is that we call people illegal on stolen land.”

There's a lot more there and the kid using the 10 million figure is fake news. A Yale study has recently put the number at more than twice that.

Does the left care about anything this kid says or is he another "lone kook?"

When I want informed opinion, I look to high school kids.

I would rather not spread views and help support financially people I don't agree with. You will not see me posting links to white nationalist videos, because I dont agree with their ideology. Sure I'll comment here if the topic is brought up here, but I dont seek their videos out, just to be outraged. That's the case here, no one on the left in the WR cares about David Hogg. It is the right that spreads his message.

It's pathetic. Reminds me of all the Conor threads I've seen in the UFC forum since his loss to Khabob. lol

I agree it wasn't the best choice of words on my part.

 

[Andy Capp]

Please elaborate on this statement of yours.

I don't like nor agree with illegal immigration but there's nothing in those few paragraphs to me that screams "full-on-crazy racist".

That's because it's not true. But that never stops some people.

 

[Lavalamp]

Why are people acting like David Hogg is a nobody? And that every word that comes out of his mouth is worthless not whether he makes a good point or not, but soley on his age?

 

[ObamaPhoneLady]

Watch the new Michael Moore movie. This kid and his crew are heavily featured and you get to see how deluded they really are.

 

[bad seed]

Are you reading the thread. I am not doing it. MSM has plastered this kid all over every network and now he is speaking at Universities. His words need to be looked at, no?

you and your ilk are encouraging the "MSM" to continue doing this because your triggered rage keeps watching this; because it gives you a dopamine boost to project your anger unto an effigy.

LOL Canada says hi.

Yeah it's working out great. Our oil is plummeting but gas prices stay stagnant because the oil companies make up their losses out of our pockets.

So sustainable!

They're sticking it to the capitalists, by shilling in a docudrama produced by a guy worth 9 figures.

Dear David,

If illegal immigrants are unsafe in America, maybe they should leave our country, go back to their home country so they can be safe once again.
