Title: Bannon
Post by: Dr Rick Daris on November 13, 2016, 08:34:06 PM
On a 1-7 scale of racist to super racist, what is this guy? Like, 4-5?
Title: Re: Bannon
Post by: star seed 7 on November 13, 2016, 08:37:12 PM
5.5

Seriously though, I only know what I've read from the huffpost and some guy that was apparently John kasichs campaign manager. They both say he's super racisty but I really can't find many other data points.

Not sure how there's a stopping point on the scale and not sure how an "influential figure on on the alt-right movement" doesn't merit a 7. Does he actually need to hang someone? He also beat his ex-wife, the charges were dropped when she didn't show up to court.

With the full understanding that the someone who makes me uncomfortable Nation watered down definition of "racist" is:  Any white person who slightly disagrees with a person of color on any issue no matter how insignificant.  (See also someone who makes me uncomfortable Nation definition of "extremist")

Bannon is the Chairman of Breitbart News. Here are some of their headlines.

Some of those are pretty ridicolous.

OTH most Prog-Libs would consider the NYT one of several Prog-Libs publications of record.   Yet we now know that the NYT purposely spiked negative stories about Clinton and the Clinton's in order to help HRC campaign.   The NYT all but admitted after the election they were purposely negative about Trump and Trump supporters and sought to paint them in the worst possible light and have now vowed a new approach in the future (we've heard that before).

Yet, Prog-Libs will still consider the NYT one of the Prog-Lib publications of record and one of the most "valid" publications relative to future news stories.

I'm tipping out at 6.5.  He's a pretty rough dude.

I think the gE posters that bring up the race card the most, are probably the most racists ppl on this board. Lib is definitely a 7. When he meets you for the first time, he tells you right away he wants to bang black girls 24/7/365. That's just not normal guys. Trying too hard to let you know he's not racist. hmm....

After reading the WikiLeaks, I'll conclude that most of the people running the Hillary campaign (and would be taking roles in the White House had she won), we're at least a little (in some cases a lot) racist.

Just remembering that HRCforPres 2008 was the de facto home of the Birther Movement (and the Obama is a coke fiend movement).

That's okay though:  They're Democrats.

Out of all the crazy conservative radio talk show hosts, he's the less harmful one out of them all. I just like him and his story.

RD, I am going to free wheel here and give you a slightly diff rating.  On a scale of 1-7, is he a crap human being, I am going to go with a 6. 

While I think he is at least slightly racist, I also think it more worth while to recognize that he is much more than just racist in that he has put out a lot of hate about a lot of other groups of ppl too.

The Senate Judiciary Committee heard testimony during hearings in March and May 1986, that Sessions had made racist remarks and called the NAACP and ACLU "un-American."

Thomas Figures, a black assistant US attorney who worked for Sessions, testified that Sessions called him "boy" on multiple occasions and joked about the Ku Klux Klan, saying that he thought Klan members were "OK, until he learned that they smoked marijuana."

Not gonna lie.  Results of the past week have made me oscillate a couple of points left on the liberal scale the past ten days.

Maybe I'll move right a point or so, but at the current rate, I'm probably not going to migrate back to a 2.  I'll probably stay a hard four.

He did just appoint his racist Robin, in Jeff Sessions, to his racist Batman.  If he can get Kobach on board, it will be a near reunion of Racist Super Friends.

dan carlin talks about grading the racism of historical figures on a curve. for example, teddy roosevelt was outrageously racist by today's standards but a progressive on race for his time. the same goes for plenty of other dudes from Jefferson to LBJ.

i doubt that any president and cabinet has been composed of individuals whose views on race lag behind those of the average voter. it's going to be interesting to see.

Dan Carlin is great.

This is really a global snap back against globalization.  You're seeing this everywhere.  Brexit, obviously.  France is struggling right now because they're trying to figure out how to get a liberal through to the final election without potentially losing to Marine LaPen.  Odds are, Sarkozy will actually be the potential candidate, so you'll have a center/right vs. far right election in France. 

I've seen more than one article saying that Angela Merkel and Germany are now standing alone as the beacon of liberalism in Western Society, and that they aren't strong enough to do that.  Germany isn't strong enough to keep the EU together and handle the immigration crisis on their own.  The fact that we'll most likely weaken NATO and promote Russian aggression will only make matters worse and promote the destabilization of Europe that will promote this far-right populism.

I read something, somewhere (Time, Politico...I can't remember) that said that society is basically equating liberalism and globalization, and by snapping back against globalization, you are regressing socially because you're pushing back against the liberalism that promotes secular globalism.  Seems plausible/likely.

I'd read odds and ends about Bannon's views before, but never anything that seemed like a good overview. I'm choosing to believe that this is one.

Quote
Steve Bannon, on the other hand, is quite something. I’ve read and reread his 2014 speech at the Vatican to see if I can find any coherence in it, and I confess I failed. It’s a hodgepodge of melodrama, hysteria, and a defense of some kind of “enlightened capitalism” along Judeo-Christian lines, in the face of an imminent Islamist takeover of the planet. It’s the 1950s versus jihad, an attempt to convey the gist of the entire Drudge Report every day and turn it into a thesis. He argues that we are just “at the very beginning stages of a global conflict” that could eradicate 2,000 years of Western civilization. It reads like the apocalyptic, paranoid fantasies of someone who writes letters to the editor, single-spaced, in all caps.

Now go check out this Vice journalist’s impression of Bannon in 2014. It does not reassure: “He’s buzzing with intensity, with two pens clipped to his shirt collar. Over the next 90 minutes, he barely touched his food and never took off his coat.” He just prattles endlessly and manically on. Among the gems that emerge from the conversation: Ebola requires a massive immigration crackdown or we’re all going to die; ISIS is plotting to assassinate the Pope; and then this calm overview: “The world is in a meltdown right now. I mean, the world is on fire. And all of a sudden it’s going to dawn on people, this is not a problem for guys in the Middle East. This is a problem for you in Kansas City.” You begin to realize that he called himself a “Leninist” for a reason.
