Norwegian spree killer Anders Behring Breivik described gunning down 69 teenagers at a liberal summer camp. Freepers nod approvingly:
FatherofFive suddenly decides yelling about Marxists and Islamists is something liberals do:
far-right extremistfella is sure liberals are gonna do this any day now:
I really don't understand this term. I define 'right' as conservative, capitalist. I define 'left' as big government socialist.
Hitler, Stalin are far left. Skinheads who support Hitler's goals are far left, but called far right.
The New Black Panther’s are taking notes.tom h blames the victims:
Many of the victims were boys, descendants of Vikings for heaven's sake, yet they did not seize upon their chance to jump the murderer when he paused to reload.Yeah, fear is a liberal thing. Action movie heroism is how conservatives roll! MeganC has children, but still thinks executing liberal children just makes sense:
This is the sad outcome of a gun-controlled, liberal social democracy that teaches non-violence and peace studies. The children of this culture become lambs led to slaughter.
Had this happened in the 1950s, even as late as the 1960s, in any western country, the d-ckhead would've been jumped by 5-10 youths. One or two might've been plugged but the other 8 would've beat the h-ll out of Breivik.
My son took three years of self-defense classes. HE would've launched into his martial arts training and alone would've taken Breivik down.
“Barbaric”I find the liberals as approving of massacres strawman at the end more infuriating than the endorsement of the killing, somehow.
I disagree. I think he was humane. When you look at what the Left has done in the past 100 years then you’ll see real barbarism.
Billions enslaved. Hundreds of millions murdered.
And Breivik was brilliant (and sane) in his strategy not to try to assassinate the current crop of leftist leaders but to assassinate the next generation of leftist elites.
It is cold, it is unthinkable to contemplate as a mother of three, but in fifteen years what Breivik did may allow Norwegians to cast off the shackles of leftism when there are not enough elite leftist youth moving into leadership.
Again, I do not approve of what Brievik did but if the tables were turned and some leftist murdered 100 kids at, say, a Tea Party summer camp I do not doubt that the left would be openly celebrating. Bill Maher would call the killer ‘brave’, Obama would call the killer the son he never had, and any number of academics would call the killer a hero.
We’re better than that, of course, but let’s not lost track of the fact that the left would do this same thing a million times over to our kids if they could. History shows that’s how they roll.
liberal children's lives don't count to Dead Corpse:
A Fascist killing Communists... I still don't care.
Skinheads who support Hitler's goals are far left, but called far right.
ReplyDeleteYou know, it's pretty easy to put this theory to the test. There are neo-Nazi groups all over the country. Anyone who's curious can contact one of them and ask them whether they consider themselves leftists. For bonus points, they can ask them where they stand on multiculturalism, gun control, immigration, feminism, state's rights, Christianity, marriage equality and so forth. Not only would any FReeper who tried this learn an important lesson about politics, but he'd probably also make a new friend.
I disagree. I think he was humane.
"I don't agree with what Breivek did, but what he did was humane and brilliant and sane and will probably end up saving his country. Besides, we all know Obama would award a medal to anyone who gunned down a bunch of right-wing teenagers. Of course, we're better than him, but we shouldn't let that stop us from praising a guy who gunned down a bunch of left-wing teenagers. I mean, Breivik's actions were completely unthinkable, granted, but when you think about what he did, it makes a lot of sense and was probably a really good idea."
The stupidity is almost more offensive than the sociopathy.
"I don't agree with what Breivek did, but what he did was humane and brilliant and sane and will probably end up saving his country."
DeleteOh well, that's all right then. The ends justify the means. All those kids are dead but Norway is probably saved. Yay mass murder!
It's just mind boggling.
Because Freepers are so pro-life, y'know.
DeleteIt's the usual Freeper "we're better than the Dhimmicraps so we don't think that way, but between you and me..." rationalization.
DeleteFor whatever reason though, MeganC decided to back herself into a corner with her over the top justifications and blatant support of the shooter, along with the ludicrous idea that Norway will somehow go right wing because 100 kids were murdered. Y'know, just like Americans saw the error of our ways and converted to Islam after 9/11.
There is nothing more annoying than namby-pampy idiots like MeganC who talk in this doublespeak and pretend they aren't saying what they are really saying. "Make no mistake, I don't approve of this at all, I just think it was totally awesome and righteous and Breivik is a hero for what he did". I hear that tune all the time when things like this happen... "Not that I approve of this, but I totally do for all the following reasons. But I still think it was wrong. Even though it was so, so right."
ReplyDeleteMegan C doubles down on the insanity:
Delete"Both of you are misreading me here. When I say that Breivik was both brilliant and sane I am also making the case to have him put to death. He was coldly calculating in what he did and I stand by what I said that he was brilliant in attacking his targets where they were most vulnerable."
That might be the most disturbing thread I've read on FR to date.
Jaw->floor.
ReplyDeleteThat is all.
"...Mother of three..."
ReplyDeletemom: "sorry kids, you turned against my teaching and voted for centrist republicans, so as your mother i have to save the world from you and your commie remedies..." blam blam !
One of the freejers had a link in one of his posts a while back so I followed it. It was a white supremist blog (Lots of eagles-and-flags graphix, swastikas), and that site of course had more links to yet more WS sites. Apparently a group forms, then splinters and spawns a new group...
ReplyDeleteAnd WS isn't just for boys. The women are all over the WS thing too, they see their men hatin', they w want to hate along with 'em.
OZY!!! Got a great thread for you. Usually the Freeperthon "rah rah" shill threads are boring, but this one is 1,400 posts strong in under 24 hours. The first 150 or so posts are a goldmine of Freepers tearing each other apart.
ReplyDeleteOn one side you have Freepers who have justifiably had it, and are telling the shills and sycophants exactly why the Griftathon is utterly stalled. On the other side you have the toadies doing their usual black/white "You're a Soros infiltrator!" shtick. It's funny to watch the small brains like DJMacWow simply repeat the same mantra over and over again even after its opponents clarify and clarify again and again.

First, this comment of yours was kind of excellent.
Delete"For whatever reason though, MeganC decided to back herself into a corner with her over the top justifications and blatant support of the shooter, along with the ludicrous idea that Norway will somehow go right wing because 100 kids were murdered.

As for the donations thread you mentioned, I am still trying to wade though it today. Someone called Wolfstar got zotted for asking about the money.

Nice comments here. The Apr 27, 2012 01:09 PM calls it doublespeak, and describes it better than I could myself.
ReplyDeleteFirst thing Monday, I've got the crazy Fundraising fight thread.
And my favorite comment from that thread tomorrow morning.
Ozy, awesome. I saw the fundraiser thread at work and since I don't like to post political stuff from work, I couldn't wait to get home to share the link. I only got to post #150 before I got tired but I knew it would be a treasure trove of material.
DeleteLooking forward to the post!
As a long time reader of Free Republic I think I can speak to the nature of the problem.
ReplyDeleteFree Republic is all about Presidential politics. How many threads are devoted to a Congressional candidate? One in a thousand?
Most Freepers are authoritarians. They had no problem with a few super rich guys being the financiers of Gingrich and Santorum and such. No problem at all.
Jim is not offering the sheep anything positive. There is a limit to how far fear and hate will take you. You have to offer some sort of hope. What are Freepers supposed to do, kill themselves?
In November, the vast majority of Freepers will pull the lever for Romney. Meanwhile, we get to watch the biggest circle jerk cum circular firing squad in the history of the internet. It's entertaining.
"What are Freepers supposed to do, kill themselves? "
ReplyDeleteBetter than killing others. That's why I'm glad we have Free Republic. They can spout their drivel instead of trying to get their point across in other ways. Still, I wouldn't mind seeing some of those Freepers kill themselves.
Of course there have been several instances of people who were Freepers committing or attempting acts of violence over the last 5-10 years. To be fair, none of them were bigtime Freepers, but not surprisingly these folks did have accounts at "the premier conservative site".
DeleteI won't be surprised if we see a few more after Obama is re-elected. 98% of them will continue being the complacent, shut-in big mouths they always are, but the other 2% will consider the gloves off.
Also, don't be surprised if they go openly racist, referring to Obama as a nigger or coon. In their hive mind, what do they have to lose since the Republic will be dead.
Apt, yet overused word alert: shocking
