I think banning them like Germany did to the Nazis is required. The core of their beliefs is incompatible with democracy and human rights and we need to directly address that. In the past the US has avoided this and we're now reaping the results of our failures.
Used in a sentence that way, the NYT is saying that the anger was morally justified.
Which. You know. Y'all, if you haven't muted or blocked NYYs accounts yet perhaps take the time to do so today. If a good article is published by them somehow someone else will share it eventually.
we've reached the point in the NYT's lifespan where Richie Cunningham moves away and Fonzie's cousin moves in, Fred Flinstone talks to a floating alien with an unpronounceable name, and an infant or cute young child is introduced to bolster flagging sitcom
Are you familiar with figures of speech? Phrases often don't mean their literal interpretations.
Like if I said "I was literally bored to death during the rally" I don't mean that I actually passed away due to boredom during the rally.
In this case they are quite clearly mocking rallygoers for thinking that their anger is "righteous".
Yeah, if you are not familiar with the English language that may be confusing. But I suspect most readers got it.
These people, who supported trump through Jan 6th, rape convictions, family separation, Access Hollywood tape, etc etc would like you to believe they are now serious in calling for political decorum & unity. Meanwhile, on the other channel they're calling for the eradication of American "unhumans."
Camps and forced migration are key features *and the actual mechanism of killing* in ethnic cleansing and many, many genocides, just so we all know what we're talking about here.
Like I'm not gonna bother parsing whether some of them intend to exterminate Latinos as a whole, but rounding up and deporting every "illegal" is barely a euphemism for ethnic cleansing.
To be clear, the fear that was always at the heart of the Trump campaign was the abstract and not necessarily genuinely-held fear of the “crime wave” Trump hyped, but that they never truly believed they’d face in reality, because thru didn’t live in or go to “the big city.”
Suddenly, though…
Despite the media moving to sympathize and empower the rw nutjobs, the crowd at that rally immediately turned its anger on those in the press box the instant it figured out what was going on. If the media has STILL not yet figured out that it will be the first sacrifice under a 2nd TFG presidency.
I'm wondering if maybe the word “righteous” is shifting meaning, to mean “self-righteous,” the way that “entitlement” has come to mean “false sense of entitlement. ”
It's funny, Trmp's furious face & his upraised fist made dislike him more than I ever have. Shock is shock but his face said it all: he wasn't gettin offstage, he wasn't trying to keep SS safe, he wanted to stay in the mess & say LOOK AT ME. Gather the crowd. Took no time for him to pivot to revenge
@nytimes.com isn't the paper of record anymore. "Righteous anger" sounds like they had valid reasons for being angry. "Self-righteous anger" is likely too difficult for them to think to say.
“After Trump had been escorted to his car and people sensed the rally was over and they were safe, the crowd turned on the media.
The crowd was angry. Middle fingers were everywhere. They asked the press if they were happy and blamed the media.
‘You did this,’ they said to reporters.”
The Nazi New York Times loves the idea of concentration camps.
"New York Times in 1922: "Hitler's anti-Semitism was not so genuine"" www.cbsnews.com/news/new-yor...
NYT loves the Nazi, Elon Musk.
The NYT is off the deep end!
"Righteous Anger" WTF?
Is the NYT normalizing the #StochasticTerrorism of #Trump , riling up his MAGA Mob, as righteous anger?
I really wish he'd been saying something about the mass deportations at the moment of the shots, instead of whatever it was about a graph — then a prime Project 2025 soundbite would be there for all to hear always.
