  uc berkeley administrators canceled a scheduled speech by right-wing pundit ann coulter, saying they can’t protect participants from rioting if it goes ahead.

  @LoveUniHateExams. I suppose that the Tea Party and the conservative media has nothing to do with it in your view.

  Coco, I wouldn't blame your laptop. Simon mentioned that he was doing stuff with the program. It probably affects different computers or browsers differently. As of now, I sometimes have it happen but it rectifies itself after just one refresh. I'm using IE and Firefox.

  Kpop,

  ...you go ahead and keep falling for the same old divide and conquer narrative that divides by race, gender, sexual orientation, religion etc etc etc. A nation divided cannot stand. They know that. You obviously don't.
  

  The dividers are this nation's financial elite who bankrolled the founding of the Tea Party to carry out their political desires. It is they who radicalized politics. Do the Koch Brothers care that their Frankenstein creation (The alt-right) has done the same thing with American politics that McCarthyism did in the 1950s?

  Kpop, you don't even understand what I have said. I was talking about right wingers inspiring hatred against liberals for the past 3 decades. I'm talking about Fox News' inspiring murderers of Liberals well before anti-fa got publicity.

  I specifically said and have to bother quoting myself:

  That is false. I'm saying that the right wing instigated this and has been responsible for inspiring several murders of Liberals and policemen long before the anti-fa was even on the media's radar;
  

  Being on the media's radar has nothing to do with how long they or their predecessors have been around. They could have been around for a thousand years for all it matters. They simply were not known because they were not active in the public arena.

  kpop,

  You are purposely attempting to spin this as if violent alt-right neo-Nazi protestors came to start a fight with peaceful, loving Antifa thugs.
  

  That is false. I'm saying that the right wing instigated this and has been responsible for inspiring several murders of Liberals and policemen long before the anti-fa was even on the media's radar; before any violence on the 'left' occurred. Right wingers have also initiated armed confrontations (like the one I posted above).

  Also, as I brought up before as an analogy, right wingers are like the bully that keeps punching and punching his victim. When the victim finally punches back the bully says "You see, you see, that's why you need to be punched!"

  I remember seeing a right wing group approach a black church carrying firearms. When they saw a line of black church members standing with shotguns held to port they ran off. This was before the anti-fa started getting notoriety.

  
  

  The right wing has been hatemongering and demonizing 'the left' for decades. Such hatred led to the murder of several persons including two policemen.
  

  It is the alt-right that started the instigation of violence before anyone answered back. Anti-fa is just the result of many right wing inspired murders and threats of violence in the past several years.

  United Nations elects Saudi Arabia to Women's Rights Commission

  the irony would be hilarious if it weren't so sad.

  that's right, a country that bans women from driving cars is on the un womens rights commission.

  "electing saudi arabia to protect women’s rights is like making an arsonist into the town fire chief," .

  Freemindfade,
  

  VI have you listened to any of these AntiFa maniacs?
  

  That doesn't make them fascist. Fascism is a political ideology not an obnoxious person who is severely agitated. Fascism is about extreme nationalism and purified races or societies. That describes the white nationalists that Trump has brought into his orbit.
  

  These are the people who have been empowered by Trump. Their disease has been smoldering for decades so now some cry because they're finally being confronted.
