To be fair, communism is and was legitimately awful. Remember Stalin was allied with Hitler at first. The solution is a stronger center. By attacking someone like Scott, you are weakening the center and increasing the odds of an extreme unwanted outcome.

1) Scott is not even vaguely a centrist 2) A non-agression pact is not an alliance 3) Stalin is despised by the vast majority of communists 4) Attacking racist filth like SSC and its fans helps push them out of the mainstream, which is an unqualified good.

"1) Scott is not even vaguely a centrist" He endorsed anyone but Trump. That makes him more left wing than like half of America. Are you claiming he's far left? (This is what he gets from right wingers sometimes btw)

In 2016, the US had 200 million registered voters. Just under 63 million voted for Trump. That’s less than a third, not half. Also, there were (and are) plenty of conservative anti-Trumpers out there.

Yes, and Scott voted for Hillary. (At least, I'm pretty sure he did.) So that puts him among the 66 million who are the most liberal.

1) Why do you think his voting for Hillary Clinton defines him on a scale 2) Why do you think who a person votes for in a given election determines anything about their larger position? I know ppl who've voted R for decades who voted Clinton, that doesn't make them left

Why does anything else mentioned in this thread define Scott on a scale? I'm marshaling evidence to correct the false claims that others are making about Scott. When the chips are down, Scott came out against Trump. He's not a white nationalist or any of that nonsense.

He's just a guy who thinks race is real, which is totally fine

*Sigh* and elsewhere in this thread, people are saying how bad it is to be colorblind... What is the woke view on this? Is race real or isn't it? I can't figure out. If you say race isn't real, you're tryna be color blind, that's racist. If you say it is, well duh you're racist

"Race" is not a thing-in-itself created by God or that objectively exists in DNA "Race" is a verb, in past participle It is a thing that was done, it is the scars of an action that was taken It is a debt that cries out to be paid

It is in this framing that the cries of "reverse racism" are so obviously perverse "Oh, so creditors are allowed to demand things from debtors but debtors aren't allowed to demand things from creditors That's hypocrisy"
