Comment on Stew Peters Advocates for a Violent Overthrow of the Government
PizzaMan@lemmy.world 1 year agoI deleted my other response to give a more detailed one now that I have the time.
So why post this here and not /politics?
This is the conservative community, and this article is about conservatism. That alone means that this article is relevant. Additionally, this article was already posted at c/politics, so there would be no point making a second post there. Third, there is sentiment amongst conservatives that democrats are authoritarians instead of republicans, and articles like these clearly show the opposite. I had a whole conversation about /u/10a about this exact sort of thing.
Also, the dude is a troll
I’m not. Just because somebody disagrees with you doesn’t mean that they are a troll. If you want to know what a troll looks like, then look no further than the guy that got banned the other day for telling people to shoot themselves for being democrats.
if the name didn’t give it away.
I just couldn’t think of a name tbh. And conservatives have a habit of shooting/killing/calling for the death of political opponents (see quote above), so I had no intention of using an identifiable name.
Responding to your other comment here
it’s not really suited here
“A community to discuss conservative politics and views.” is the purpose of this community. This article is about conservitve politics and views. I don’t know what else to tell you.
And every time you do, all my posts get buried for the next few days.
If your ideas cannot survive in the free market of ideas, then that is on you.

I’m not saying you’re a troll, the jury is still out on that. But I’m saying the guy who calls himself stupider is a troll.

Ah, I see what you meant now. I’m too used to you and others calling me a troll automatically, simply because I disagree.
Regardless, from what I can tell, Stew Peters is his actual name, not a joke or troll name:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stew_Peters
havasunews.com/…/article_b0e55b02-281c-11ee-9531-…
And double regardless, shit like this within conservatism should be a giant red flag no matter what subsection of conservatism is saying it.

Im still not convinved he isn’t just a troll, especially with a birthday on april fools days, but that is a lot of effort.
Red flag for what exactly? We all know assholes and idiots exist.

That second link is from a court case, which presumably would have his actual name.
For conservatism. If there’s a Nazi at the table and 10 other people sitting there talking to him, then you got a table with 11 Nazis
