Social ‘I love Hitler’: Leaked messages expose Young Republicans’ racist chat

So the problem isn't the racism, calls for violence/rape, or anything else said. The issue is that someone pointed it out?
Congratulations on declaring your fealty to the cancel culture warriors. The cancel culture warriors happily embrace you today, but tomorrow, they will come for selective quoting from every private conversation you ever had.

I've quite literally never said anything publicly or privately that could get me cancelled.

Crazy to claim the issue isn't doing horrible shit but people calling you out on that shit. Just don't be a shit bag. It is not hard
 
good post again, just a few points whilst i try eat my lunch

But I don't think that these people were raised with conservative parents and teachers. They were most likely, for the majority, raised with people trying to instill leftist or left-leaning ideology.
Not sure. In the US context, the Evangelical Church has been growing and I don't think the Midwest or South has gotten much more liberal. since the Reagan era

I'm more left than my parents. If I had to guess you are too. I can't speak for you but for me, a big part of that wa because I was able to as a younger person see the flaws in the more extreme nodes of their thinking
nice guess, and agreed.

Kids are smart. They have acuity we forgot we had, and they're wired to test things and see the bullshit.
Not sure. I have a feeling social media has changed the reception and processing of information, and critical thinking, in ways we don't understand yet*******


the healthiest society would have the best of both liberalism and conservatism. To some it might seem that's an oxymoron
not at all to me, I am far more foreign-policy hawkish than my more 'left' friends and far more pro-Police and law&order.


What worries me the most is that these "young" people aren't even that young. They're late 20's and early 30's, and the generation behind them (I don't even know what that one is called) worries me even more. They'll be running the place when I'm old. I'm right of center and I think I'll still get crucified.
agree 100%




***** EG myself, near 50. I have been consuming One FC, 3 round, small gloves Muay Thai, every week for nearly 3 years, having been a big, near-obsessive boxing fan i seldom watch boxing now. But when I *do* watch boxing- it has to be a superb skill, or action, to hold my attention. All of a sudden that 36+12 minutes can seem a looooooong time if the fight isn't absolutely top level. Fights i would have been perfectly captivated by before, I struggle with now. I suspect this is representative of what happens to young people consuming near-everything in 15-30 second bursts.
I've been out of the pastor gig for a while but I can tell you confidently that the more concerning tenets of Christian theology come not from evangelicals but the more conservative protestants, ie Baptists and Non-Denominational Church of Christers. Evangelicals tend to focus more on the relationship with Jesus rather than enforcing Christian norms, your Pentecostals, even a good deal of Presbyterians. Evangelicals have been up, agreed but the more severe sects of Christiantiy such as Baptists and Church of Christ (not LDS, the ND ones) have gone way, way down between 1995 and 2021.
Recent years, I don't know. You might know more than I do on that, I haven't been a pastor/counselor since 2011.

You could be right about social media. My knee-jerk reaction is to say we think the same thing about social media that people thought about TV when we were kids. However I will absolutely concede that there is something awful going on with social media. I think you mentioned earlier about them not being able to focus on anything for more than five seconds- agreed and it's a problem. I don't know for sure that makes them more susceptible to indoctrination, or that it dulls the senses young people have in parsing/testing things.

Thank you for telling me a bit about yourself. I'm 44, I used to do Muay Thai with other stuff, even did several MMA matches but paying four different coaches was awful. I've only been doing jiujitsu since 2017. Only now after about three months is my fucking rotator cuff healed, and honestly considering my age that's lucky. Let's have a beer sometime and tell kids to get off our lawns
 
Besides these tards getting fired, what else does the Left want?
"If you are in our party and hold these beliefs, know that you have no place here. We will not tolerate those who act as these individuals did."

And before you "but Dems". They need to do the same shit.

"The statements of this person are inexcusable. He and anyone that supports these statements do not belong among our ranks. We are better than this vile mindset "

That fucking easy
 
Young men talking shit and using slurs isn't new. LMAO. They didn't even bother to drop a hard R. Pussies. Everyone talks shit in private.
If you talk about rape and using racial slurs and murdering people all the time, then you're a shitty person lol. No normal person says shit like that, even in private.
 
Andy, its the opinion of the author of the hit piece article that they're 'normalized at most points.'

28,000 messages and the examples in the article were the worst ones. So, by our standards that's pretty tame.

If he ever visited Sherdog's Warroom he'd probably conclude, if he was being honest, practically everything said aside from the racial slurs from that chat was entirely normal.

"Please give examples?"
Say you never visit the meme thread without saying you never visit the meme thread.

Oh one of the Republicans joked around about Indians stinking? Why do you know that's a stereotype so commonly known of it's worth making jokes about others will laugh at?

Because stereotypes are exaggerated truths.

No, not every Indian rarely bathes, but enough rarely bathe that there's a correlation in experience from millions of people noticing the Indians that do rarely bathe that there's a stereotype developed known across the entire world.
Its not an inside joke amongst racist communities.

Practically every Indian I've met had acceptable hygiene.
Then I walked into a 7-11 and noticed a distinct stench. The stench got stronger as I walked closer to the cashier to buy my items.
I left the 7-11 thinking 'okay, so that stereotype isn't just an internet rumor to joke around about like Michelle Obama having a dick.'
Cope Solid Mental
 
I'm old enough to remember when the left was defending a late night comedian that made bad tasteless jokes... Oh wait, that was three weeks ago.

Go ahead, panic wrestle by saying that's 'whataboutism.'
Huh?

Pretty sure Kimmel didn't say Charlie Kirk deserved to die and laugh about it and say he was a horrible person. So, literally not the same fucking comparison at all lol. You guys must live in a different reality, because Kimmel literally said nothing bad at all. Like, LIIIIIITERALLLLYYYYYYYY nothing bad, just showing the obvious hypocrisies of this administration and country.

Saying people deserve to be raped and murdered, put in a gas chamber, using racial slurs, NORMAL ADULTS (which these people are old enough) don't say shit like that. If you do, then you've literally never grown up in life lol. So stop with the bullshit comparisons.
 
Professing love for Hitler makes you a Nazi. Those 20 to 30 year old fatties are Nazi’s no matter how hard you try to spin it. I believe at this point MAGA Will soon try to convince everyone Hitler was not a Nazi. If I belonged to a team, I would try to get all the Nazi’s off of it
No it doesnt. Are they idiots for making awful jokes? Sure. Do these guys deserve all the downfall on their heads? Yeah. Absolutely. Do they actually adore Hitler and support the nazi regime to exterminate jews, destroy the church and its influence and instill some figure as the highest power in the land? Its doubtful.

People used to be able to make these kind of distinctions and now it seems like common sense is not so common. This is exactly why theres a tendency for people on the right to argue that words have lost their meaning they're just applied whenever it feels appropriate as opposed whether its actually accurate.
 
Huh?

Never said he did.
I said he was cancelled for making jokes.
Leftists defending him say he was cancelled for making jokes.
I agree with the left.

Now 3 weeks later, the left is trying to cancel people for making jokes.
The political article reports they were making jokes, and the transcriptions makes it clear they were jokes.

Three weeks ago leftists said right-wingers were the joke police.
Now, leftist clearly are the joke police.

Ehhh. They deserve all the downfall. Like, all of it. You wanna pursue a career as a public figure, you deserve it all to come crashing down over saying stuff like this. It doesn't matter if its a joke in context or whether other people might make other jokes. This isnt "canceling", this is the epitome of fuck around find out.
 
Again, cancel culture isn't a concern if you're not a shit person
Should every single person who has ever posted this image be cancelled?
