You know, with Hitler, the more I learn about that guy, the more I don’t care for him.
Isn’t it “the less” you care for him?

I’ll show myself out.
RIP Norm Macdonald
Norm was fairly right-wing and said some pretty unacceptable things., but he was an undeniably talented comedian and I’m glad we have his body of work to remember him by.
Mr. MacDonald had this to say about the sentencing: “In Nebraska, a man was sentenced for killing a female crossdresser [sic] who had accused him of rape and two of her friends. Excuse me if this sounds harsh, but in my mind, they all deserved to die.”
In case you don’t know where to look. This (and other comments) is well documented and plenty discussed. I don’t know if I’d say he’s right wing nor would I say he’s left wing. He was definitely bigoted and sexist.
Anti-trans is hard to point left or right because pro-trans is centre-right
But I’d say violence against them is a right wing opinion
The rest of his views could be left though
pro-trans is centre-right
huh?
People on the left are gender abolitionists (xx and xy is all gender means and everyone is an individual do it never goes past that) you can transition but that doesn’t make you less of a man/woman
Obviously trans doesn’t fit in that but on the left they blame society and want to change it so there aren’t any trans.
Then you get the centre right like this website where they talk about gender identity and being trans because “born in wrong body”
Then you go right/far right and they blame the individuals
I feel like people here just associate left with utopia so any opinions they have must be leftist
As far what’s right/just that’s up to the individual and not really worth getting into because people online aren’t going to be swayed one way or the other
You are very confused
You’re probably in that group
I would like to tell you as a leftist myself that that is not what I nor anyone I’ve ever met believes
You can be left and have right wing opinions
You’re just not leftist on this issue
RIP indeed, dude was the funniest comedian to me. I went and watched every possible clip of Norm available online right before he passed. The YouTube channel I’m Not Norm has 'em all
I’m not norm is a legend
Well it is because the bad guys were real jerks!
I know I’m taking a joke remark too seriously, but “History is written by the victors” is just plain wrong. More often than not it is, sure, but it’s not exclusively, or even overwhelmingly.
History is written by those who write it. This can be the winners or the losers, and there are plenty of examples for both.
E: people crying about this even though it’s blatantly true and I’ve provided plenty of examples in another comment.
Sorry, but people need to stop universally applying and blindly believing Churchill’s history is written by the victors quote.
It was a half-cocked throwaway line by a politician, it’s not a universal law.
History is written by the literate.
I can’t remember the comedian who was like “This America guy was just a mapmaker and now he’s famous.”
History is written by historians
Historians are written by genetic material as well as experiences and reactions to both.
Yes, I listened a really long podcast about it and I know it made total sense and listed a lot of evidence, but as always, I can’t recall anything but the point that truly the saying is wrong. Do you have an example?
Can you reword that?
The Native Americans are generally considered “the good guys” and clearly lost.
Strangely you have misunderstood my comment. It was clearly meant about the saying that history is written by the winners. There is no saying that winners are the good guys.
Even more strangely you are not the only one. I can only surmise that people are really itching to get offended by something. Or do you think it’s something else?

I find your comment offensive to people who are easily offended. Also, I think you’re sheeple. Do your own research. The media is lying to you.
