If US society continues to devolve and these people actually attempt to make good on these threats, don’t expect the police to save you. Just saying.
Tom Morello got one thing wrong; it’s now more like all of those that work forces.
Why do you think the guitarist wrote the lyrics?
Because I don’t do research to back up my throw away jokes. This isn’t Reddit, don’t be insufferable.
If that happens, it won’t go down the way you or anyone else expects it to. Just saying.
How can anyone be on the side of the right and walk amongst those who, on average, more actively preach and wish for the deaths of people. Alvarez is serving up a BS pie. He may not have said it, but he can’t pretend he doesn’t know it’s a current sentiment in their stream. He uses Truth Social actively. They are the deluded ones.
It’s 2023. Stop being murderous, racist, and generally bigoted people. Let people and women make their own decisions. And quit efing overreaching, especially into families.
Let people and women make their own decisions
I know you likely didn’t intend this and I agree with your post but women are generally considered to be people, too 😂
Yes, thank you for not jumping at me for this, I was just trying to be more inclusive rather than exclusive that all people should be able to make their decisions, not just especially female bodied. Apologies at my awkwardness!! Glad it produced a healthy sense of humor. I more than agree that women are people too. 🤣
I’m not a right wing person, but I’m not a fan of the current neoliberal culture war people from the democrats either.
Speaking as an independent, people for unironically say the word bigot come off as unpalatable as people who unironically (actually ironically is probably worse) say the word snowflake. And really, you’re saying effing? Say your curse worse and commit or don’t bother.
The biggest weapon the objectively immoral on the right have is the subjective disgust they have with ‘leftist’ social rhetoric. Everyone is just reactionary and out country is in a mutually abusive relationship with a side of self harm
Maybe Fox news public and Fentanyl addicts have more in common than I tought but for a moment was like watching a documentary about the opioid crysis.
These dang leftists just aren’t gonna understand the context of agreeing that some people should be murdered! It’s just what cancel culture breeds!
Why am I not surprised that the person that was interviewed didn’t seem to have any teeth…
Today wasn’t his turn with the family set of teeth.
Imagine being so indoctrinated with a political party that that’s your stance. The party’s meant to be your bitch, not the other way around
Republicans are such cucks to their fearless tyrants. They’d let Donny boy stick his little pecker in their wives faces and shake his hand after.

There are people who claim to be feminists on Twitter calling for genocide against men daily.
Sadly people fall prey to rather ridiculous ideologies including, it seems, this moron at the Trump rally.
He added: “This is what many on the left will do, they’ll take a clip of that and they will run with it and, all of a sudden, the statement that is that you want to ‘kill everybody’ or whatever. We all know that’s not what you meant to get across.”
Fuck these gaslighting pieces of shit
“How dare the left use things that the right says and does against them! Doesn’t the left know that they are supposed to only say flattering things about the right as they sit and get bulldozed? The nerve of the left pointing out the things we are actually saying and doing!”
Off-topic but how would you quote text like this? I’m using Voyager
how would you quote…
> textJust put a “>” in front of the quote
That’s super cool! Thanks
It should just use markdown, so a right chevron (>) at the beginning of a new line. Like this.
Quote
Oh I never knew “>” had a name!
And thanks man
This is literally what that douchenozzle did on stage a few years ago. I’m forgetting who it was but he said “the only good Democrat is a dead one” and then immediately had to backpedal saying “I mean politically dead, you know they’ll take that out of context.”
Sorry fucko but the audience cheered like crazy to your bullshit BEFORE you backpedaled.
That’s all the man said! He gave a list of people, and then said he wanted to kill them. It’s not like he was giving a review of the Barbie movie and anecdotally said that sometimes he has dark thoughts. He said he wants to kill anyone who doesn’t support Trump.
He added: “This is what many on the left will do, they’ll take a clip of that and they will run with it and, all of a sudden, the statement that is that you want to ‘kill everybody’ or whatever. We all know that’s not what you meant to get across.”
Fuck these gaslighting pieces of shit
Does lemmy have sort by controversial?
Traitors
I can’t help but think if these people were brown or wore turbans they’d all be in jail by now.
If someone tells you they want to kill you, believe them.
Since this kind of rhetoric always leads to violence, please stay safe out there, and don’t be hesitant to report harassment.

He’s backpedaling but it seems pretty clear that he was in agreement at the time
He tried to say he didn’t hear that because it was loud outside. All the people I can see are smiling but not talking. Blatant lie.
Ah, the “globalists”.
I need not watch past that, because now I know he’s on the side of Captain Inbred.
“Did I say Globalists? I meant Jews.”
You should, because it gets worse. Much, much worse.
Mf actually said (hastily) “I agree”

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I’m open-source, check me out at GitHub.
Just spins for me and doesn’t play video. Cool concept though, I hope it takes off.
Have that happen quite a bit. Just refresh the page a few times usually fixes it.
Took a nap and your comment was there when I woke up. Clicked it again and it worked immediately. Perhaps it was a server hug.
The way I understand is… The website uses different servers/instances to do its thing. Some work better than others. Refreshing the page usually changes the instance in use. I could be wrong though.
Sounds like the guy said, “Joe mall” and buddy was like, “uhhh k yeah I agree”
deleted by creator
Yeah because, as we all know, “I agree” is the only response to “Joe mall”
gtfo honestly
What? You’ve never been there where you can’t hear somebody say something and you’re like, “oh yeah for sure” because you need to move on.
Seriously, listen to the guy. He sounds like talking with no teeth and a mouth full of marbles.
I don’t know who this guy is, but his biggest faux pas here is saying, “I agree,” instead of “ok,” or something else.
Edit: oh never mind, after watching again this guy was asking leading questions. He’s a shit journalist.
Anyway, fuck this guy, but not for that part. I honestly believe he didn’t understand what ol’ Fatface Marblemouth there was saying because I didn’t either even while not having to deal with all the background noise.
Edit 2: The downvotes tell me that tribalism is alive and well on the left. There’s plenty of things to criticize republicans on, why waste your time and energy getting mad about this? By showing you’re opponents zero understanding as human beings you’re also showing that you’ve fallen for the diversionary tactics used by those to keep us fighting amongst each other.
If he only said it the first time, I’d agree with you that it’s possible. But he said it, and then said it again more clearly. I’m sorry, but you can’t chalk this up to “he didn’t understand/hear.” If it were really loud there, even, and he said it twice, maybe you’d have a point. But it was not very loud where they were standing.
Not to mention, he had the context of the conversation they were having. He was trying to goad them into spouting their rhetoric. There’s no way, given the context, the volume of the area, the fact that he said it twice…I’m sorry, you can’t buy his bullshit back peddling.
I think exactly what they’d hope would happen has happened: create a controversy to become the new OAN. I, for sure, had never heard of “far right news” or whatever the fuck the name of that “network” was.
Yeah I get what you’re saying, but just yesterday at work I asked a guy to repeat himself and I did the whole “ok yeah gotcha” thing when I didn’t understand what he said even the second time. It happens.
I’m not saying this guy isn’t a piece of shit, I’m just saying this incident isn’t the one to nail him on. The whole, “the globalists? The lefties?” or whatever the exact quote was is much more egregious in my opinion. A reporter shouldn’t be influencing people’s opinions.
I agree with you about the context. I can tell this guy is part of the problem in America, I’m just not going to condemn him for something I did just yesterday. 🤷🏻♂️
Come on, you can’t be that naive. Yes, misunderstandings happen. But what are the chances that this reporter had a misunderstanding exactly when it was most politically expedient for him?
There is this weird thing people do in modern politics, where the people that have the same political beliefs they do can just never be wrong. People have their team, and everything that comes out of anyone with the same color shirt on or the right letter next to their name is suddenly defensible, no matter how obviously silly or ridiculous.
Like communists will defend every single massacre perpetrated under the banner of communism. It’s absolutely insane. Just admit that people who you agree with can do/say things that are just wrong. It’s not that hard. And it doesn’t make your convictions less your convictions.
I’ve been explaining myself all day about a joke I made at the expense of the moron who can’t speak correctly. I don’t care what you have to say. I’m sure it’s already been addressed in other comments.
Why are Nazis and people concern trolling for Nazis allowed on this server? Doesn’t lemm.ee have rules against that sort of thing?
Way to play right in to the real Nazis hands, bud.
Nope, that’s not going to work on me. I used to be a centrist, I know the game and I am not going to be taken in by you pretending to be an impassive third party when im reality, you support and defend a hate group that wants to kill anyone different from them.
Cool man. Tell me what I think. That’s really productive.
The downvotes tell me that tribalism is alive and well on the left.
Dude said he wants to kill everyone that isn’t a trump supporter and you’re crying about tribalism on the left because of downvotes? Fucking seriously?
Haven’t you heard? Clicking a down arrow on the internet is literally the exact same thing as making a death threat. Both sides are equally bad!
No, Marblemouth said that. The guy’s a bad reporter and a reporter should never say, “I agree,” but rushing to condemn him over that is just as tribalistic as supporting him because he’s a, “right wing reporter.” (A thing that shouldn’t exist)
If you really want to get him fired I’m sure he’s done way worse shit than not hear somebody.
Anyway, I’ve already called talking about this a waste of energy yet here I am still talking about it, so I’m done. See ya.
but rushing to condemn him over that is just as tribalistic as supporting him
lmfao Ah, the fabled “both sides” of saying you want to murder political rivals. Incredible to see you here saying it so loudly and proudly.
Haranguing me over saying “I dunno, it was loud and the guy can’t speak clearly. Maybe he didn’t actually understand what he said and was moving on, like we’ve all done.”
Funny how people are completely ignoring the parts of my comments where I agree this guy sucks for other reasons, which are on display in the same video.
Tribalism. The tribe has decided that I’m the enemy even though I am firmly on the side of anti-fascists, but you still have to be able to think for yourself, man. You’ve fallen for the divisionary tactics they use to make us fight each other.
I never mentioned the reporter.
I was simply pointing out the absurdity of you crying about leftist tribalism because of downvotes on a video of a guy literally saying he wants to kill all non Trump supporters.
And I was talking about how it’s not unreasonable to believe that the reporter couldn’t hear Marblemouth in a loud environment and wasn’t aware of what he was saying “I agree” too.
Marblemouth can go fuck himself and if that’s what you’re bitching at me about then at least be on the same page.
And you know what? Marblemouth votes. Do you?
He has an earpiece in, he can hear what’s being said into the microphone. He agreed because he was pandering.
Bro you can’t even admit that this dude meant what he said because he’s right wing and you’re whining about tribalism
I mean, he could be lying. I’m just saying it’s not unbelievable that he didn’t understand what he was “agreeing” too because it’s loud and the moron he’s talking to can barely speak.
I don’t fucking care if he meant it or not. Everyone’s right that he’s a shit journalist. My point is that you could get on his case about the other obvious propaganda tactics in the video instead of the one that will never gain traction and I can’t believe that me making fun of old Marblemouth there led to me being called a Nazi in the comments. 🙄🙄🙄
Everyone here is so eager for a fight? Put your money where your mouth is, go find him, punch him in the mouth and leave me alone. I’ll pitch five bucks for your flight.
This is all a lot less funny when you put into context that nearly all domestic terrorism in the US is from right wingers. These people listen when others say to be violent.
I agree with that 100%
Like Christ, I started this conversation by making fun of the asshole that actually said it and I guess it wasn’t funny enough because I was instantly told to gtfo.
Then I’m like “meh, it was loud. Maybe he didn’t actually understand what he was saying.” and now I’m a Nazi. 🙄
I agree the reporter sucks, marblemouth sucks, Nazis suck, but holy shit people need to calm down.
Hmm, I’m pretty sure it was “Let’s go brandon”
RSBN host Brian Glenn then offered support to Alvarez and said the clip would be viewed out of context by those on the left.
Don’t think he knows what that means.
Viewed without the previous context of 2000 hours of Rush Limbaugh, Fox News, Ben Shapiro, and Tucker Carlson.
“I agree with that” doesn’t get much more in agreement than that.
Such a coward. Own it.
He literally said that he agreed with the guy twice while being recorded.
