It's not a "gotcha", it's correcting the GPs deceptive contrast of labor groups versus white supremacists, when they were one and the same.

It's not a "gotcha", it's correcting the GPs deceptive contrast of labor groups versus white supremacists, when they were one and the same.
- wat10000 2mo agoThey contrasted ecoterroists versus white supremacists now, and labor vs fascists in the past.
- like_any_other 2mo agoIf you insist on nitpicking, I'll spell it out for you: > look at how the FBI treated [white supremacist] labor groups versus fascists ones in the 20s [..] no need to worry about the decades after, they killed enough [white supremacist?] leaders to stop [white supremacist??] leftwing voices in the US So the fact that the labor groups the FBI targeted were white supremacist by today's standards makes those sentences complete nonsense.
- wat10000 2mo agoIf you say so. Makes sense to me, just weird to so specifically call out something that doesn’t distinguish them from half the population at the time.
