New Chapo is out:

As always, begins with blokey undergrad comedy but gets serious as it goes.

OK, this line of thinking irritates me every time I see or hear it.

Yeah, because socialists and communists don’t need to pay the bills and rent, and that doesn’t even take into account that the American left is largely capitalist.

But keep on fighting that strawman.

Berkeley arrests:

there is no doubt that the deep state and the military-industrial-intelligence-security complex together with neoconservative elements are intent on bringing Trump down

People don’t like perspective. It was the same when Milo’s Berkeley speech was protested where a fire in a trash can and a single arrest justified people declaring the place a war zone.

Helped on by a lot of media push:

The nazis are also busy re-captioning videos of Berkeley scuffles:

For the record: that dude is not in a coma and was apparently one of the fascists. Notice the peacekeeper jump in at the end once the guy was subdued?

I have seen people at the end saying the last guy was there for the freeze peach protest, but he is a journalist.

I read that article, but the proof it uses is the personnel decisions Trump’s appointed generals made in response to the fringe alt-right types also in his WH staff. That doesn’t make any sense, especially when the business interests the article also brings up are not part of the deep state - I mean, Tillerson literally just came out against Trump. The deep state argument is a lot more reasoned and insightful when discussing how much the CIA loves leaks unless the leak speaks against them, or when neoconservatives start making joint PACs with establishment Democrats… it loses most of its power when it says Trump hired the deep state and those officials managed to keep their jobs while his alt-right ones do things that should get you fired like ranting about cultural Marxism trying to erase Judeo-Christian culture.

At this point, the deep state is far from the only actor against Trump. The Russia involvement in the election remains, but considering the month of open white-pride policy from the WH and the military’s willingness to remain complicit with it so long as they get their war chest; I don’t consider the deep state an actor in the way it had the appearance of in January. I would even go so far to say that the leaks in January were justified, that it didn’t actually impact Trump’s ability to govern (or even his popularity much), and that the reason so many are against him has become obvious with each greater and greater controversy.

I still like reading the opinions on it, though I find this one weak.

Can I just say that it’s monumentally weird to find Juggalos are getting political? Truly interesting times we find ourselves living in.

In fact, that journalist has a very good response to people trying to use a love conquers hate tactic to combat Nazis.

He goes on to say that it takes many different sides working together against the force to conquer it, and you will not agree with all of them.

Juggalos have always been more political than they’re given credit for; they’re overtly anti-racist.

Despite all the nonsense the Liberals spouted post-election about the “white working class”, most of that group were never aligned with the fascists. The Juggalos are the working class.

“Nazi with a website” rather than “journalist”.

Not the guy beaten, the black guy that comes in and dives on the alt-right guy on the ground to break it up. He is a journalist, Al Letson.

This is a very worthwhile hour-long podcast that goes into detail about who Redneck Revolt are and why they do what they do:

And this is a short broadcast demonstrating one of those things:

Outreach to the right-wing militias, and assistance for those who want to leave.
