It’s amazing how some people just can’t grasp that there might be real world consequences for having enabled the spread of neo-Nazi terrorist doctrines

They're very often the same people anyway. The number of fascists who've been busted for kiddie porn or grooming or abuse... At this point we should probably just declare neo-fascism the political wing of paedophilia.

Pedos are like Nazis, if you let them stay "because they aren't harming anyone" eventually they'll bring their friends, who'll bring their friends, until you have a pedo place because everyone else noticed you weren't kicking out the pedophilies.

in any other country the las vegas music festival massacre would be a historical landmark that led to massive social shifts

after my Oslo talk, staffers at the 22 July Centre came up to tell me about their project & then opened just to let me see it. It "is a commemoration & learning centre" about the fascist Anders Breivik's attacks in Oslo & on Utøya July 22, 2011, when he murdered 77 people.

wow those 14 hours in Oslo were really something

every time I give talk I remove more and more names from it
