HE COMMENTED ON CIVIL RIGHTS:

When asked: Would you have said the same thing during the civil rights movement?

He replied: “What a ridiculous and self-serving oversimplification to imply the civil rights movement was successful because people stood in the street. It’s very simple, just get out of the road”

Here’s the link to the video clips.

He also said this:

“What gives you the unique moral authority to break the law because of what you believe in?.. It’s narcissistic and entitled. That’s insane. It’s like these people think the world revolved around their issue…”

The pic is just a pic I found of him.

Edit: Also, if people think he doesn’t matter, he’s literally more popular than Hasan, especially when it comes to gaming shit.

    please be kind to cockroaches, they’re actually fairly clean creatures unlike Mr. WoW Streamer.

    You’re probably right. Thought, I’ll admit I’ve always been very afraid of cockroaches. It’s just a very visceral fear I have - I’m more terrified of them than of any other insects, pests etc. I can think of, except maybe worms, but worms are fairly small and slow so they aren’t as big a threat. Snakes too, but snakes aren’t very common where I live, so they get a pass.

      rat-salute-2 cockroaches do skeeve me out to the point where, the last time I saw one inside a few years ago - it was right after I’d just moved into this fairly shitty rental in the middle of summer so naturally it had wandered inside either due to us keeping the doors open most of the weekend while moving furniture in or otherwise had been occupying the empty house and was forced out into the open, but either way that motherfucker crawled on my glass desk at like 2:30am while I was sitting there hitting my bong and the next thing I know bong water was everywhere, the cockroach was crawling on my arm, the embers of weed were burning a hole into my boxers, and my roommate’s dog was losing its shit in the other room hearing me lose my shit. up i sprung, out of my chair, and smacked the back of my hand into the wall (in what may still be to this day my fastest feat of reflex I’ve ever done) - crushing the bastard against my fucking knuckles. my roommate said she’d never forget standing in the hallway, thinking I’d had a seizure or something, only to witness me come stomping out of my room with ash all over my boxers, cockroach guts on the back of my hand/wrist, and a stare like I’d seen my best friend kill my childhood dog before closing the bathroom door and spending the next hour in the shower. did not sleep that night and drove to the hardware store at 8am to buy like two pounds of diatomaceous earth which I then basically dusted the entire house with.

      my mother, having grown up in places with german cockroaches - does not understand my fear of palmetto bugs, which are what cockroaches are to me (and what that bastard was that night), because in her opinion - german cockroaches are far worse due to being smaller but I’d rather an infestation of fuckers I can’t see anywhere but in my pantry rather than fuckers that FLY AND ARE AS LONG AS YOUR INDEX FINGER

        I’ve just learnt from you and another person that there are cockroaches that fly and…goddamn, nature is scary as fuck. Also, what a story. heart-sickle Cockroaches are a universal human fear.

          they are some god’s creatures, like all things, so I don’t wish for them to be exterminated off the face of the planet - but there is nothing worse than trying to kill one on a wall or the ceiling only for it to spread its wings and glide around/onto you. wood roaches are also little bastards that have the power of flight; very fun bugs to find in your tent because your troop decided to make camp under a bunch of pine trees and disturbed it out of the pine needles with a campfire. i’m sorry roachoids, i know some of you are pollinators, but you all suck!!!

      They’re fine as long as they’re not in my house. I have grown up with large black flying roaches and cannot stand them, if I spot one I will literally not be able to relax at all until it is dead.
