Pardon me, but your view is ridiculous!
Or are you claiming that the people at Evergreen are all secret members of the Pepe Brotherhood and that they are not holding their leftist views honestly?
- dropit_sphere 9y agoWhat part of his view seems ridiculous to you?
- bobabooey02 9y agoThe idea that hundreds of non-white alt-righters could gather at a college and all act like extremist liberals while not leaking the fact they're alt-righters is pretty absurd to me.
- bzbarsky 9y agoIt's a good thing DuskStar said absolutely nothing like that, then, right?
- bobabooey02 9y agoIt was implied when DuskStar said it was a right-wing propaganda piece. That implies that it was done intentionally to push a narrative.
- bzbarsky 9y agoHe didn't say that. He said it was playing in the media the way a right-wing propaganda piece would have played, even though it wasn't one. I thought that was pretty clear, especially given the last sentence of his first paragraph.
- rogual 9y agoI don't think DuskStar was claiming it was a false-flag protest, just that it made the people doing it look bad.
- DuskStar 9y agoYep, exactly! Not entirely sure how people might think I was suggesting Evergreen's protests were a false flag, that really wasn't my intention.
- bzbarsky 9y agoNo, DuskStar is claiming that the people at Evergreen are leftist college students who did something stupid, and the thing they did makes leftists as a group look stupid. So other leftists are trying hard to hide the thing that was done, to avoid the PR fallout. This was pretty clear in what DuskStar wrote. See the "the fact it was produced by leftists who need a far better grasp of optics" bit.
