Nazi punchers anonymous

And once again, there’s a total failure by most of the rightwing to unequivocally condemn the Nazis themselves. The fact that some of the anti-Nazi protesters attacked police and journalists does not mean that the anti-fascist demonstrators are just as bad as the neoNazis themselves. I’m getting really tired of this false equivalence.

I like how you characterize apologetics and whataboutism into…how dare you draw a false equivalence - even if nobody is doing that. What does the rightwing have to do with that Vox article?

I don’t really care about Vox; I’m talking about the phenomena in general. I’m also talking about the rightwing apologetics and false equivalences that they do every time violence erupts at a Nazi rally. They did it at the first Unite the Right rally too. The president himself even refused to condemn neoNazism and blamed “both sides” for the violence. Thanks for ignoring my point, by the way. I always enjoy having my argument ignored completely in favor of some obnoxious gibberish. I really don’t even understand your post. The apologetics for the alt-right has always been that aspects of the left are just as bad. Trump’s “violence on both sides” bullshit is the very definition of a false equivalence.
