Further developments on the netflix protest

This is really upsetting. Remember the big chap with the "jokes are funny sign" at the Netflix walkout? The one who had his sign destroyed by a netflix author who tried to get the crowd to beat him up (or law enforcement to shoot him) by shouting HE HAS A WEAPON?

In his first video released soon afterwards - where we got to laugh at the ridiculous REPENT MOTHERFUCKER tambourine/rattlesnake woman, - he also mentioned that his friend had been attacked and knocked over, and that his head was still hurting. And also that they were chased to their car by a bunch of very threatening antifa thugs.
In this new video update he is visibly shaken. He has just seen footage of what actually happened to his friend.

First he reads how the incident was reported by biased media, describing him and his friend Dick, and their good natured protest (signs reading "We Like Dave" and "Jokes are Funny") as evidence of the violent tendencies Dave Chappelle stirs up in right wing fanatics. The article says that his friend used the stick from his sign to put someone in a chokehold, using the stick to throttle them, but "luckily an antifascist was able to jump in and break his hold on the unidentified persons neck.

Then he shows video footage of the incident, and what actually happened is really shocking.
Firstly, the innocent protester put in a chokehold by the violent stick wielding thug turns out to be the very same blue t-shirt guy who broke Vito's sign and tried to get him killed by shouting the "he has a weapon" warning.

Then you see that what really happens is that the bloke's wife comes forward, she gets right up in his personal space, with her arms out, and while Dick is distracted blue t-shirt guy manages to insert himself between Dick and the stick attached to his sign.

He's trying to pull the sign away so he can destroy it like he did earlier with Vito, but Dick doesn't let go of the stick, he holds it with two hands so that the writer/provocateur is standing in front of him, between him and the stick, refusing to move. Dick is shouting "he's grabbing my stuff". He's very carefully not touching the sign grabber, just holding on to his own stick with both hands. Then a thug with his face hidden under a blue mask comes up and violently pushes him over, then purposefully slams his head onto a decorative concrete ball. He's obviously shocked and hurt, he tries to get someone to help him, and the bloke who attacked him immediately says "you were choking someone". Which is the lie the media reports as if it was truth.

The video shows very clearly what really happened. Without it there would just be his word against the antifa liars. It's exactly the same as what happened when that thug Tara Wolf (also known as Tara Flik Wood), a trans-identified male, beat up Maria MacLachlan after announcing on Facebook that he was going to “fuck up some TERFs” his mates lied under oath making up a story where Maria was a crazed hells granny who put one enormous lout in a headlock and threw them around like a rag doll. Fortunately, in that case too, there was very clear video evidence of what actually happened.

Vito is so upset by the video, and by the fact that his friend Dick still has symptoms from having his head smashed into concrete. By the lies that are being spread on social media about what happened, that paint him and Dick as violent fascist thugs, and by the fact that the antifa nutjobs who chased them to their car have uploaded footage showing their license plate onto social media, making it easy for deranged people to get hold of the home address and turn up to show their displeasure with guns or molotov cocktails.

The fact that it was the same netflix author who instigated the skirmishes both times, and after trying and failing to get security to shoot Vito, or the crowd to beat him to death by shouting that he was armed, then went on to position himself between Dick and his sign so that he could pretend he was being choked, and this time he really did manage to get his target seriously hurt.

I really hope Dick makes a full recovery, but everyone knows that head injuries can cause permanent brain damage and personality changes. I also hope that their legal case against the netflix author and antifa smurf is very successful and lucrative that they both think good and hard before pulling the same vile stunts on anyone else.

It's laughable that these thugs call themselves anti-fascist when they're using the fascist playbook on how to create violence and lies.

I think that's a big part of the attraction for some.

Antifa/far left/Momentum, are radical groups who are gradually destroying genuine socialist politics, the kind of politics which protects the poorest in society.
These radical groups do not care about the poorest, they only care about themselves, they only care about anarchy.

They are the mirror image of the MAGA obsessives, QAnoners, and those who stormed Capitol Hill. The main small difference is a set of incompatible nutty beliefs but otherwise it's a nicely overlapping Venn diagram.

This is the person who led the Netflix protest and was given a voice in Variety (warning, Jess Bradley-esque photo):

To be fair I for one am glad that some people are prepared to use tactics as despicable as a fascist might... so long as they are turning those tactics against fascists, racists etc. The problem is not the tactics, it's that these TRA idiots think they are doing good when they clearly aren't.

IMHO you do have a much bigger obligation to make sure that you're on the right side of history before engaging in fascist tactics... whereas if you're simply writing letters to your MP it is a little bit more acceptable to be wrong.

Vanishun · 01/11/2021 11:59

Really though, why haven't there been arrests? (Have there?)

How are we defining these groups?

When I think of antifa I think of anyone who is anti fascist. Simple. Good... but there is obviously the problem that they are linked to TRA.

Far left - what are you talking about exctly?

Momentum... pretty much sane centre left from where I'm sat albeit with the nutty TRA element, and a small amount of anti-semitism (I believe that there was and is anti-semites in labour - but definitely nowhere near the numbers of islamaphobes in the tory party - but that the anti-semitism thing was massively blown out of proportion by the press and deliberately encouraged by Israel in order to undermine labour and reduce the chances of a palestine-leaning labour government in the uk.

I also think that:
"IMHO you do have a much bigger obligation to make sure that you're on the right side of history before engaging in fascist tactics" is a very very slippery slope...

My point is the gaslighting and bandwagon jumping. They think women are fascists for objecting to gender identity ideology. In their worldview we are. So the "anti fascist" tactics you think are justifiable are justified by them because TWAW.

Datun · 01/11/2021 17:25

Strewth, that's awful.

I'm wondering if that technique of grabbing the placard and putting your back to the holder, is a known technique. That other smurf guy was pretty prompt with his choking accusation.

Actually, the issue is the tactics. Who gets to define who is "Fascist" or "Racist" anymore? Increasingly, those descriptors are becoming subjective, as opposed to objective, with people are hurling those terms at people they disagree with, not because their actions denote them as a fascist or a racist.

That's exactly what I was thinking.

@HatefulHaberdashery Agreed. The time to employ fascist tactics is Never! Apart from anything else, its not a game you can win (the far right and Antifa will always have bigger stronger guys), and it isn't a game you should want to win either.

Why am I not surprised by the postings of a Netflix producer boycotting the company as a protest over Dave Chappelle? Horrified, but not surprised….

Sexualising a young anime character Envy (not envy). This person has been all over the US media as well. Teflon-coated apparently, just like the other protester who made all those racist and homophobic tweets

It’s almost like it’s a game. “How brazen can I be and still be given a voice of authority on such matters?” Like McKinnon/Ivy being on CNN, Jess Bradley, Jamie Shupe getting an article in the Guardian etc.
