You freaked out over 14 year olds making a salute/hand gesture they likely had little understanding. It's definitely worse than the nazi pug, but get a hold of yourself. maybe take a few deep breathes before losing your mind over 14 year olds making hand gestures. As I predicted yesterday, there was actual bigotry on display and nobody cared. As it became obvious the 16 year olds didn't surround the indigenous man or chant "build a wall" as reported, the animosity towards the 16 year olds didn't die down on 2p2. Out of the 3 groups involved, they displayed the most liberal behavior and they were the kids. All the animosity is still directed at them. Not even a yawn from the "liberals" about the actual bigotry they witnessed.
I think everyone is really impressed with how virtuous you are for hating nazis and how morally superior you are to 14 year olds. I think everyone should gather around and give you some applause
It's really transparent

Regular posters don't want balance in the Politics forum because a well-balanced discussion isn't desirable if eating bull**** is needed to maintain it.
I don't think it's going to work either. I've been suggesting 2p2 just be real and re label it a left wing community and let it continue as is. The community is far to intolerant for anything else imo. Only one way to find out I guess

I actually think it's the opposite. I suspect racists don't really care about being called racist. 2p2 has this hysteria of posters thinking the forum was full of closet nazi's. It's weird and paranoid. Look at a radical like Einbert. He's openly communist and in ANTIFA. Both of those things are incredibly stupid and radical. Those ideologies and behavior self select for stupidity, that's why he doesn't feel the need to hide it, he's just that dumb
Also in case we were wondering what actual racism on 2p2 looks like, unsurprisingly we can find it with a member of the political left community who's in good standing. This is directed at a poster he knew to be Korean. Its definitely the most racist thing I've seen directed at another poster on 2p2. None of the "liberals" seemed to care
