- verdverm 2y agoAre you familiar with the kinds of things Stephen Miller says? You might want to be before defending him to get an idea, he hangs out with Steve Bannon and Roger Stone
- Manuel_D 2y agoYeah, awful horrendous things like, "companies and universities should treat applicants without regard to protected characteristics like race, gender, and religion." Truly heinous.
- verdverm 2y agoone quote without context does not counter the litany of awful statements Stephen Miller has made throughout his career
- Manuel_D 2y agoIt's interesting that despite repeatedly insisting that Miller has said awful things, you have yet to actually share said statements.
- verdverm 2y agoBecause HN has rules about comments and reaction baiting that I'm not going to break They are easy to find with a search engine if you want to learn
- Manuel_D 2y agoDo not attempt to hide behind the HN rules here, if it's not insulting another member and it's relevant to the discussion it is permitted to share bigoted quotes. Sharing Miller's statements to substantiate your claims that he's a bigot is totally within the rules. I have searched him and did not find any bigoted quotes. Even his SPLC page only has quotes of him wanting to restrict immigration, which is a common and mainstream opinion and quite the stretch to use as an example of bigotry.
