People are making a big deal about a girl getting punched in a brawl...meanwhile a guy's in the hospital after someone caved his head in with a bike lock and ran. I mean hell, she even walked away and they're raising thousands to take care of her "concussion."
Injured women make for far superior PR than men getting injured, secondarily celebrities with large twitter followings favour her cause far more than the dude's, so it's not at all surprising that the left does not care when the right is injured and cares when its own are injured. US politics is increasingly looking to become less and less merciful, more and more winner takes all, no mercy
Idiot looking for a fight got in a fight. It's a shame how American discourse in right in the shitter these days. Almost like Madison wrote something about factionalism as the primary danger to democratic systems or something.
Looking at it, this man has his hands up and is ambushed by the masked antifa who jumps from the crowd to smash his head with the lock. Yet this is his fault? Between this shit, the kidnapping, the girl set on fire and what not, it seems particularly obvious that every time antifa escalates violence against ordinary people they're going to galvanise ordinary people into taking precautions to defend themselves - how quickly this will turn into lethal no quarter fights, or even civil war is probably only a matter of time. The whole antifa movement, like lmao how the fuck does the USA need ethicists to tell you that physically assaulting your opponents because you don't like what they say is bad thing? Doesn't matter if the right doesn't have news media, when social media shows clear enough that antifa have been consistently starting violence and raising it, being the ones to tear down police barriers and get rekt
Seriously, if your dudes are represented by masked thugs whose legitimacy comes from ambushing people because they asked for it, you're taking every lesson America learned in how to radicalize the middle east and applying it to the home. This is so retarded and if you guys ruin the greatest country in the world I will slightly die inside, but my sides will be in orbit. Seriously wtf
American right wing has its fucked up bullshits, but I'll give their rank and file the credit in that they show their faces when they march because they don't march with the intent to break the law and grab the scalps of their enemies as our fine antifa wanted.
This on the other hand is just ugly plain and simple, people whose purpose from the start was to assault normal people and put them in hospitable for having a different opinion. I'm thinking: If these guys, the American right wing retaliate, will it just be against antifa? Not likely, it will rapidly descend into Napoleonic retardation and we'd have American spring 2017, rule of law flying out the window
Imagine if this head injury killed this man. How would you calm the angry mobs from waging civil war? US news doesn't report on this shit much, but information control like this is not possible without shutting down the internet, more news of this will come out every time it will happen. When it does, left and right need to be of one mind in calming people down and not letting extremists like antifa lead the rhetoric by calling for the death of their enemies - if we are at the sad state where morality matters not anymore, and the right are now subhumans to be killed, then there is a simpler argument to be made that if violence escalates, the right wing will win and will likely descend into extremism the longer the conflict rages. Don't start it, take every effort to maintain peace, I'm probably preaching to the choir and all but for posterity this is so retarded. If you see nothing morally wrong with attacking your fellow countryman, then surely it must dawn that you must not make an enemy of the better organized, better armed and better trained!
And Antifa really needs to fire whoever is in charge of their PR
Seriously look at the video, after this guy got his head cracked, you can see about five dozen men all form a unit and just sweep antifa from the streets. All it took was one head crack, and shit hits the fan, and antifa just crumbled away
USA is very fragile right now, glhf
*EDIT
Looking into the police role in all this - namely, that they did not do much, seems they had manpower issues and were not prepared to deal with two large hostile crowds and thus were only ordered to defend their own units and shepherd the protesters wherever possible. Guess the distribution of US police is not equal in geographic terms
