Mehdi Hasan vs 20 far-right conservatives

[alittlelark]

This is a debate between Mehdi Hasan and 20 hard-corre MAGAs - it is fascinating to see just how far right (and a couple self proclaimed Nazi supporters) these people are. I found this channel a few weeks ago and really liked the style they use in these debate round tables. It is fairly long, but just scanning thru will give u the gist of it. The guy at 22:20 is a true ‘piece of work’.

1. This is representative of MAGA in general.

Open fascists, Holocaust deniers, fans of Francisco Franco, supporters of “Christian” autocracy.

We’re in much bigger trouble as a country than it appears, and it appears pretty bad.

[alittlelark]

3. I have to admit some of it shocked me - saying it so openly

In public - that is what shocked me. The rocks have all been turned over.

2. If anyone has watched any of these Jubilee debates - you'll notice they use the same debaters

as if they're on speed-dial.

FWIW, I blocked Jubilee on youtube because it's simply ragebait.

I encourage others to due the same.

5. A lot of people on this site enjoy these types of debates

I guess they are too fast paced for some. I have watched 5+ of their round tables, and I think this one is the most fast paced.

The 1 doctor vs 20 anti vaxxers may be a better one for you to watch. It is much slower and easier to understand. I’ll post it for you here.

18. The pace isn't the problem - it's the treating shitty ideas (fascism/anti-science, etc) as equal arguments

as if either have merit.

[alittlelark]

20. Pretty sure any non-brainwashed viewer would recognize

That Mehdi was consistant and fact-based whereas the MAggots were illogical and oftentimes repulsive in their thinking

I think the 20-1 panel shows the strength of the 1.

[AStern]

22. I'm pretty sure Jubilee is okay with allowing Nazis and Racists spew nonsense and not one changed their minds

So at the end of the day, it's still 1 vs 20.

[alittlelark]

25. I would place a wager that a few will be diff ppl in a year

26. Then they need to call some different ones

because that batch of fascists sucked. Quite frankly, they were nearly all a bunch of asshole ignoramuses.

4. this is just stupid

there isn't any point in debating these morons. They are a lost cause. There is no changing their minds, even slightly.

[alittlelark]

6. About half of the round table is under 25

My guess (hope) is that within a year or less a number of them will change for the better - you can see it in the eyes of a few of them.

The older ones ARE a lost cause - I fully agree with that, but I have to have hope for the younger ones to break free from the brainwashing. I think these types of debates can help those whose minds have not become coprolites.

27. That's what I thought scary

They look and otherwise seem "ordinary", and really prove that don't judge a book by its cover thing.

Yet they publicly said all that rancid shit.

7. This kind of platforming is how nazis get mainstreamed. It's deeply irresponsible.

[alittlelark]

9. The ones that admitted to naziism/racism are podcasters

They are already out and proud - and their beliefs were so extreme that some of the other MAGATS were wincing.

[WhiskeyGrinder]

13. Giving them an even wider platform is irresponsible. If you're debating a nazi, he's won, because you're giving him

legitimacy.

[alittlelark]

14. If you watched it you would see that Husin refused to debate

Once the person says they support Naziism, Fascism, or Authoritarianism. He just stopped after explaining that he would not debate with someone with those beliefs.

[WhiskeyGrinder]

15. And he didn't know these people held these views beforehand? Come on.

[alittlelark]

16. Mehdi seemed legit freaked out by the overtly stated views

Of a few - I don’t think he knew the extremity of the views would be vocalized. They are usually hidden behind waffle words and cult phrases.

[WhiskeyGrinder]

17. embarrassing

[alittlelark]

21. I do not think it was in any way embarrassing for Medhi

He does not seem embarrassed about it at all, and I have always respected him.

[FoxNewsSucks]

28. I also think he did great

I miss his show. Firing him really tells us all we need to know about corporate media.

I also don't think this helps the nazis. Letting them spew unchallenged might, but Mehdi didn't do that. He addressed their BS, and this video should actually be a lot more widely seen.

19. +1

8. I'd seen some clips but hadn't watched them.

Thanks. I’ll check it out later

[FoxNewsSucks]

29. It took me a while to get it finished, but it's worth watching, and eye-opening.

And depressing to realize what surrounds us every day out in public.

[malaise]

10. The scary part was watching one of them gleefully admit

That he is a fascist

[In It to Win It]

12. What's even scarier is that these people can vote

[In It to Win It]

11. I've seen some clips floating around... Ummm.. WHAT THE FUCK?

[usaf-vet]

23. I wanted to hear more from Kai roughly starting at the 1:28 minute mark. I would love to know his background he.....

..... said "I'm a Constitutional Originalist." Where has he been schooled would be my first question.

[alittlelark]

24. My guess he was brainwashed by his parents

Then further ‘schooled’ by maga coprolites.

[usaf-vet]

30. Here is more about him and some of the others debating Mehdi Hasan. The guy I want to hear more from was Kai Schwemmer..

..... he apparently is part of a group called "Groyper" Pinesap.

This video will tell you more as it did for me.

Wow, and the world thought we, the youth of the '60s, were far out. If my 78-year-old memory is not failing me at this moment (there are moments when it does), all we want is more peace and love in the world. Unfortunately, by 1965, I was in the USAF and part of the Vietnam generation.
