    In case anyone is wondering, Neil Oliver is a an anti-vax pro-death, climate change denying anti-science conspiracy theorist. He made his reputation as an affable nature lover presenting a number of shows on the BBC, including the excellent Coast, but now has jumped to the right-wing “news” channel echo chamber GBN where he can spew bile totally unchallenged.

    Fuck him, fuck his lies, fuck his demented viewpoint and fuck his attempts to drag the world down with him.

      When people are smeared and labeled with such words, I tend to be highly criticial of the people saying them.

      Some people I make sure to watch and read, so as to not be in an echo chamber, are also labled and smeared in a similar manner.

      It usually starts from legacy media and politicians smearing them, it is a known tactic used by the status quo and the duopoly in the US.

      How is he a ‘traitor’?

      If you believe what people say about themselves and what he does, he is seen as an ‘American First’ type of person…

        Lol! Good one.

        “[The Jan 6 traitors] believed that the election they had just voted in had been unfairly conducted. And they were right. In retrospect, it is clear the 2020 election was a grave betrayal of American democracy. Given the facts that have since emerged about that election, no honest person can deny it.” – Tucker Carlson

        Defends traitors = traitor.

        Tucker Carlson is a traitor.

          Oh, we do not agree on that matter as well.

          I see it more closely to this saying:

          A riot is the language of the unheard - Martin Luther King Jr.

          Thanks for sharing more information though!

            Lol nice trolling attempt! Trying to associate Dr. King with the very people he would oppose. B+ for effort. Not bad.

            (I didn’t downvote you, by the way.)

              Not a trolling attempt.

              When people are not heard or believe they are being ignored, they tend to become or try more extreme measures or a way to fight back what they may see a detriment to their wellbeing or society.

              Hence the quote:

              A riot is the language of the unheard - Martin Luther King Jr.

                “Let’s burn all Jews alive in front of the Capitol!”

                Sure that will bring a lot of sympathy to poor, unheard, misunderstood nazis.

                Context is everything.

                And thank you for making me do a godwin.

                Good trolling, but no marks this time since it didn’t add anything new.

                  I am not sure what you are trying to get at, but it seems you keep pushing the extremes, just to push…?

                  Godwin’s law, short for Godwin’s law of Nazi analogies, is an Internet adage asserting: "As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches

                  The Palestinian people are experiencing a genocide, they have tried peaceful methods and negotiating with the regime oppressing them, when that fails people try anything to escape the prison that was imposed on them.

                  My previous reply was not mean to be seen a bringing sympathy, it was meant to show empathy to another group you do not agree with.

                  You keep using a word, I do not think you know the meaning of or using it correctly…

                  Or maybe you are just using it as a label to dismiss people that do not agree or think like you, more likely?

                  Troll: In slang, a troll is a person who posts deliberately offensive or provocative messages online or who performs similar behaviors in real life. The methods and motivations of trolls can range from benign to sadistic.
