    This is not the Violence Olympics. It's wrong whoever does it. There is an "immoral equivalence" between the Far Left & the Far Right inasmuch as both practice violence to achieve political ends, and that is wrong. Rinse, lather, repeat.https://twitter.com/gorskon/status/1147876707745054720 …

    That's the fascist MO. Be the aggressor and try to provoke your enemy into attacking first. If successful, beat the shit out of them and claim "self-defense." Rinse, lather, repeat. It's sad that Mr. Shermer seems so blind to this simple, well-documented fact.

        You're full of shit carrying water for the Nazi's Mike. I'll smack a Nazi and leave an extra flower on my Grandpa's grave. You know who were all too passive around Nazi's? Dead Jews. #hobomessiah Enjoy.

        Michael Shermer has been credibly accused by multiple women of sexual assault and rape. I would not trust his moral compass on the ethics of violence.

        Denial of direct, observable evidence for the sake of promulgating the narrative of an espoused ideology - not very, ah, scientific on the part of @gorskon. Alas. 🤷‍♂️

        They may be equivalent in some way, but we know who the good ol' skeptic prefers, don't we Mikey? Hey, shouldn't you have your nose in a book, working on that remedial mid-20th century history catch up? How's that coming? You know Hitler wasn't a socialist now, right?

        Nobody is defending the far right either. We all came to an agreement that the far right were generally terrible a generation ago.

        The constant claim now is that Antifa are innocent bystanders who were somehow "provoked" to violence. It's utter horseshit.
