This kid is one brave dude. I know he wants to pop off but resisting all of that to be the voice of courage.

People can learn a lot from him.
 
I'm kind of concerned for when Bjorn is going home. Hope he watches his back that no one follows him.

I'm not delving into hyperboly, he really does have the kind of steel that says he has been protested at lot longer than the rest of them there (left or right). By years given the seeming age gap. I'd say he is not scared of what they may do, his biggest concern (outside of showing Nazis for what they are) is keeping his own cool, rather than them losing theres.
 
I know the kid means well, but damn, you are not going to convince these bastards of anything.

Could be, but if a group jumps you from behind, there is little you can do.
 
I keep hearing him say about when America would manufacture a whole lot more than it does now, and all I hear is:

"Automation! Automation!"

Man this girl needs to stfu with the chanting god damn.

And fucking lol at the idiots who keep saying "make America great again" and nothing else. So few brain cells.
 
Haha I love that the guy who was acting all hard when it was full of nazis ran away the moment the tables turned

Absolutely cowardly

as this is all public domain hopefully some of these nazis get noticed by people they know in 'real life'

We maybe have to have a serious conversation about shutting the internet down. Stop this shit before it spreads any further.

I'm only half joking.

Very true, and I hope to God no one lays a finger on him, but I can imagine that is something he has thought before he walked here, and probably something he thought in any previous protests too. His message though: that threat doesn't scare him. THEY do not scare him.

Yup. can't hear shit. But "lol there's no discourse with Nazis" tho.

But here we have a 15yo (supposedly?) trying to hold his ground against this very opinionated adult. It's just wrong.
 

Kelas

The Beastie Boys are the first hip hop group in years to have something to say
yeah i'm out

"we're normal people trying to have a conversation"

with a dude standing beside him who moments ago stood in front of the camera and said the holocaust is a lie

with this dude on the other side

The problem is fringe groups taking over the conversation online because websites let them. I seriously think that without sites like Reddit, Facebook en Twitter having created echo groups for years we would not have Trump right now as president.

That is not to say those sites don't have good elements, but them not standing up against the bullshit their users post there is something that needs to change. Preferably from the companies themselves. Imagine if Facebook had shut down sharing of all the fake news, Breitbart shit and more before the election.

He's trying to reason with people who were yelling out "Auschwitz" just a few minutes back. It's noble, but useless.

Really admire that kid. He's handling it amazingly well.

Although I gotta be honest, 99.9% of these douchebags will never change their views. The odd one might but some things are just too ingrained.

Sam out. Hope Warrior Cub, Bjorn, Camo Hoodie don't waste their time too much tonight. Leaving now and having it blow over so you can come back when you don't have the troll army of /pol/, Sam & the various dumb subreddits, dedicated to hate, on your door step.

The chanting is important to drown out the negativity and to strengthen the message. Even if Warrior Cub is trying to engage them, that's still giving them a platform and relenting.

This is not a fucking conversation. This is a fight.
 
This guy over here trying to debate them with malarky. I wish I could be there to argue with him, but at the same time I don't go to marches/protests because I can only be peaceful for so long when antagonized. I'd be in a jail if I showed up there, lol. Would do more harm for the movement than me not being there.

That and I live in Oklahoma.

I'm just worried about my nephew, and his generation. He's 7 and just getting into YouTubers like Stampy Cat. While that is fine, it's only a matter of time before he gets exposed to some of this meme based, internet hive mind bullshit. When this shit is all around you from such a young age it surely influences you.

The more of this stuff around and the younger kids get exposed to it we could actually be outnumbered soon. It's a fucking terrifying thought.

If the discourse in these things is anything to go by, you should take the internet away from your kid immediately to be honest.

I wonder if Bjørn is Swedish. He is using a Swedish ö in his name. Incredible resilience standing in that pool of hate, racism and bigotry for so long without even lifting an eyebrow. Just watching it on stream almost drained me completely. This is the reality of Trump's new America with shouts of racism and anti-Semitism normalized in the street.

In 2004 and 2014 I was in Normandy France. I walked the beaches and visited the cemeteries hosting a sea of white crosses and tombstones reaching as far as the eye could see, representing the thousands of heroes who died fighting to save the world from Nazism and Tyranny. Seeing these asshats literally spitting on the legacy of these men is absolutely disgusting and horrifying.

I remember a time when the internet was hailed as the great intellectual liberator, bringing about an age of fact and knowledge based decision making...

...yeah

Expose him to as much good as you can. There are Nazi organisers there, those who've fed on hatred for a long time. Then there are young wannabe Nazis there too, who are simply left at a young age to assume mocking the world and those who need help is the norm. There is a very real reason the profiling of these guys are neckbeards, poor body weight and poor skincare: they've been left to just sit and sneer with no real interaction for how the world can be beyond reddit or chan.

The entirety of human knowledge, experience and thought at your fingertips, and you use it to perpetuate memes about the holocaust.

Fucking worthless species.

I wonder how happy these guys will be when it starts getting taken away from them? Book burning in the virtual space - a whole lot of web activity will be crippled come 2021, I am betting.

Yeah he's on the right track thankfully. I will not let him become this!
 
Last thing..because I am gonna go relax and play some For Honor.

I'm glad we spent the day down there and I got it out of my system. It's been one thing to watch the stream or drive by every night. Seeing that kid putting up swastikas this morning really got to me and I saw first hand that all these hateful people are toothless. Said it earlier, they all came with paper swords. Yeah..theres a lot of them there today but they really are all talk. It's been somewhat addicting watching this stream all week because of how close it is to where I live. But I need to listen to what my girl has been telling me..just stop watching it and getting mad. Because when the stream shuts down, which I really see happening soon, all these people will go back to their regular lives and nothing will be different.
