just as the "left" is wearing Che t-shirts and praising Fidel Castro.

Oh no, those are just harmless, lovable, well-meaning folks.  Nothing to see there.

Uh oh, derspiess gets triggered, transforms into Moe Greene
MOE SMASH! MOE STRAIGHTENS OUT FREDO!

You on your cigarette break?

Coffee break.  With my "Vivá Ché..con Leche!" mug.

I'm excited!

It's back to a Dumb vs Dumber fight. And it's hard to say which is which.

Incidentally, in relation to my discussion about this meme with Indiana Jones, I have just been accused of "gaslighting, which is an abusive behaviour".

Can any of you precious snowflakes explain to me what the fuck this means?

[CountDeMoney]

You light your farts.  Stop it

It's trying to manipulate someone into questioning their own memory or perception of what is going on.

It's a real thing, often seen in abusive relationships ('he only hits me because he loves me too much'), but of course has become trendy in certain online circles where it us used to end debate.

I used google. How does this work in an online debate between people who do not know each other?

To be honest, I am really getting tired of all the arguments I have been having with people over Trump and the whole thing surrounding this. I feel there are things one side gets right and things the other side gets right. But people are so bristly about this.

Admittedly, the left has been more bristly lately than the right, but then again it could be explained by the right being more relaxed in their recent victory.

I think I should go back to making fun of both sides rather than trying to convince anyone why they are wrong.

I'm happy with it.  There was a time in this country were beating Nazis was a virtue.

You sound exactly like the leftists on my Facebook. I guess pointing out that this was the case when the US was at war with the Nazis and Nazis were committing genocide, as opposed to the situation where you are calling "Nazi" a fellow citizen who voted for a candidate you dislike and who so far has not done - nor promise to do - anything Nazi-like, fell on deaf ears there so I do not suppose it would go through to your dumb skull.

Gosh you mean accusing your opponents of being Nazis is stupid and hyperbolic? Well thank you for this brand new fucking exciting information. Where were you in the 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, and last decade the last million times this happened?

It was just a few years ago right wing people were parading around UT campus and handed me a flyer explaining that Obama was trying to become a fascist dictator and was engaging in the biggest genocide in history. I made a joke here about how unlucky the US is because every single President we elect is Hitler. And I don't recall you flipping the fuck out over 'Hitlery'. Remember the Bush=Hilter jokes we were making when he was President? Do you know why we did that? Because this happens all the time constantly.

You wanted him to be President, being called Hitler is part of the gig.

Or, you know, Canadian Prime Minister.

You are never going to convince everybody of something. You might convince a few people of something.

The "alt right" does that just as the "left" is wearing Che t-shirts and praising Fidel Castro. You are judging the whole group by stupid actions of a fringe.

The "alt right" is the fringe.  There are no moderates, just like there are no moderate Hezbollah.  As it happens the guy giving the Nazi salute was Spencer one of the founders.
