Author Vicky Osterweil Talks 'In Defense of Looting' After Kenosha Uprising : Code Switch : NPR
This is the philosophy people like AOC and Bernie believe in.
No wonder liberals permit riots and looting
And "the right" are a bunch of racists. Here, I'll quote one person who's a racist, and is on 'the right,' and so that means all of "the right" are racists!
Q.E.D.
FWIW, I read a little of that article, and IMO the author is an idiot and her ideas total bull****. But if you want to attribute her views to anyone else, guilt by vague association isn't going to get you there, unless you want and agree to be judged by the opinions of every idiot on 'the right' and their opinions attributed to you because you're also on 'the right.' I assume you only take responsibility for your own opinions. You should assume the same for the rest of us, including Bernie and AOC.

Here a gem quote from the link:
It attacks the idea of property, and it attacks the idea that in order for someone to have a roof over their head or have a meal ticket, they have to work for a boss
God forbid they have to work for boss, that is unjust according to this dangerous moron.
Yeah except AOC actually said looting was about getting bread for starving children. And the leftists seem to be in no hurry to protect property. They openly say if you oppose looting it’s because you value property over black lives

Similarly, "they" on the right wing are openly racist, anti-Semitic scum. See how that works? All I need is one person saying it (and I can find the quote if you want) and then I can allege you share those views!
That's fair, right? It's the standard you're using here. So now you know - whatever someone arguably on the right says, "their" opinions are now yours!!

Except everyone of importance in the Republican Party has denounced anti semitism and racial supremacy.
The prominent leftists all deny Antifa exists and Antifa terrorists who murdered a trump supporter and asssaulted Andy Ngo remain at large, in fact leftists justify these things

YOu do realize that much of the rioting and looting was not done by BLM members but by white Boogaloo members> read some of the police reports. I Madison, WI, it was young white teenagers from local towns that came in to loot and then blame it on the BLm, but they have been caught and are now facing charges.
:lamoDo you have any idea how many times your side has made that very argument here at DP over the last 4 years? It might be the single most common liberal smear made here. And yet you have been silent. Until now. Sorry but your hypocrisy has destroyed your credibility.
Republican Congressman Todd Akin said "If it's a legitimate rape, the female body has ways to try to shut the whole thing down". This is obviously the philosophy that Trump and all Republicans believe in. No wonder Republicans endorse and permit rape.
So what? You started the OP with a discussion of someone I've never heard of and attributed her views to "the left." I'm on the left and rejected her views. No one I've seen has agreed with her views.
Then quote someone. Who are the "prominent leftists" who ALL deny Antifa even exists? I'm on the left and have never heard anyone deny their existence. It's a matter of the public record they do exist, so you're lying or making crap up. So if you want to condemn someone, quote them so we can see what they said and in what context.
What is frequently the case is right wing liars blame "Antifa" for pretty much everything without evidence that it's actually someone associated with "Antifa" who engaged in what I assume is unprovoked violence. I don't know what cases you're referring to there because there's no context.
And "the right" are a bunch of racists. Here, I'll quote one person who's a racist, and is on 'the right,' and so that means all of "the right" are racists!

Whataboutism :roll:
See even now you’re simply gaslighting. I pointed out two examples where left wing governing authorities have not denounced Antifa after cOmmitting political violence, not only no denunciation but no arrests.
The Portland Police Bureau have said three people were arrested in connection with the violent clashes that left Ngo and two other people hospitalized.
Following the incident, Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler (D) said in a series of tweets that the city stands “against all forms of violence – regardless of someone’s political leanings.”
You don’t even say that was wrong. Because you don’t believe it’s wrong.
They sat in Portland when that man was assasinated and proudly declared they were not sad a “fascist” was killed. Andy Ngo has permanent injuries from his beating. The people who did it have not been arrested
But since you asked, here’s Jerry Nadler calling Antifa violence a myth right here.
Remember this was after 70 days of riots and the beating of Ngo
Jerry Nadler says antifa violence in Portland 'a myth'
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. federal prosecutors have produced no evidence linking dozens of people arrested in anti-racism protests in Portland, Oregon, to the antifa or anarchist movements, despite President Donald Trump’s assertions they are fueling the unrest.
In fact not only was it denied but when federal authorities made arrests your side was screaming that secret police and Trump death squads were roaming the streets arresting innocent peaceful protestors
The fact that you choose to attack the person vs making a rationed reason argument that agrees with what he said then it continues to prove his point correct.
When you have leftist politicians and other far left liberals donating to these peoples bail and legal funds then yes they do support the looting.
Who are "left wing governing authorities" and what's the evidence that by not arresting a murderer that they, whoever makes up this unknown group, condone the murder? Do you know who did it? Does anyone? So the 'authorities' have a name, but refuse to issue a warrant for his arrest?
he draws false moral equivelancy and never condemns Antifa by name or identifies Ngos attackers as political leftists. His denunciation is thus invalid. That’s the Charlottesville standard after all.And I guess you're talking about the incident in 2019 with Ngo. If not then how about a link.
Conservative journalist Andy Ngo says assault involving Antifa resulted in brain injury | TheHill
I guess the mayor of Portland isn't one of those on "the left" you're talking about.
And yet you are defending inaction in bringing killers to justiceMurder is wrong - of course I believe that.
Once again, I'm not sure who "they" are or why if "they" said that it indicts everyone on the left. You have to know that because someone in Portland said something that it only indicts that person or those who express agreement, not others like me who have not.
Many of these rioters clearly are and are being politically shieldedThe problem is the right wing labels anyone violent at any protest a member of Antifa. Unless they're black, then of course they're part of the BLM movement, since every black person who commits violence is of course a BLM member. That's how it works. If you have evidence that the federal prosecutors don't have then you can give me a link.
