    See, I said earlier that they wouldn't have jobs thinking they'd have to be morons to show up for this.

    No, no it isn't. I thought you were a writer and would expect you to know the definition of the word fact.

    Don't do that. We're all in agreement that BOTH of them, White Supremacists and ANTIFA, are pieces of shit. The only difference at this time is that White Supremacists are in the news right now.

    It's obviously shitty he got fucked up by a bunch of racist assholes but let's not act like crazy leftists weren't attacking Trump supporters less than a year ago and one even SHOT a politician. It's been a shitstorm of the vocal minority lashing out with violence on both ends of the political spectrum. It all comes down to these people (antifa/"nazis") are low IQ individuals with no capacity to keep their unwanted emotions in check.

    Wasn't Whiteish the original name of the Cosby show?

    I'm sorry, but there is at least one person here blaming today's events on antifa. I don't agree with their tactics, but they exist because of white nationalist assholes. They are the effect, rather than the cause. Don't blame the roaches for infesting your house. Maybe you shouldn't have rotten food all over your house.

    Ok, serious question. Did they have to make an effort to seem white while filming that show? I'm literally curious.

    I hadn't heard of Antifa until recently so logically they aren't the cause of this to me. Are they the week old Pizza enticing the roaches to come out in the daylight? Maybe, even probably. Still no excuse.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    The main difference is that white supremacy has been a persistent strain of ugliness in the US and Europe for centuries, while Antifa is a recent flare-up. It's like having a cold and telling someone with cancer, "We both have problems, the only difference is that cancer is in the news right now." Both are illnesses, but one is a long-term problem that has had much more serious and devastating effects.

    Your analogy was much more effective than mine.

    This guy wrote 197 episodes of the Cosby show.

    Yeah, it is a good one.

    The question is this, is this cancer only affecting white people or would it affect others if they were the majority?

    So I guess we all have excuses for hating each other. What a wonderful society we live in. It's one of the main reasons I keep out of the big cities.

    Ok, more accurate question. Did the actors have to fake it like Charlie Hunnam or Hugh Laurie doing an American accent?

    Or, imagine Ice Cube playing Theo Huxtable.
