What is so "hilarious" about yet another inflammatory, cliched portrayal of liberals as Nazis? It gets old. Can't we get back to a place where we can disagree about who to vote for and still respect each other? Rhetoric that demonizes liberals or conservatives isn't helpful.

Wouldn't it be nice - maybe best to address the liberal students at these college campuses or the people in these marches rather than the OP. I liked the video - it's what is wrong with society today.

What would be really great is if people quite hyperbolizing "liberal students" and "redneck Nazis" and realized that 95+ percent of Americans aren't extremists and can gladly get along with and work with people who have different political views. This video just fans the flame of hysteria. A 20-year-old protester on the Berkeley campus should not be the face of the Democratic Party any more than Richard Spencer should be the face of the Republican Party.

Two comments from you, yet it appears you didn't even watch the video and have no idea what you're talking about.

Unfortunately, I watched the video, Dark. No surprise that you enjoyed it.

I can't speak directly to WestCobb, as he or she is on my ignore list, but it does appear that they didn't watch it.

Having said that, I did, and I didn't find it funny. I disagree with conservatives about most things, and with Trump voters about almost everything, but I have no desire to punch, silence, or otherwise harm everyone. The stereotype that all liberals engage in such behavior is just as unfortunate as the stereotype that all on the right are Nazis. It's my fondest hope that neither belief is embraced by the majority.

Oh the irony. Yes, I watched the video and yep - came to the same conclusion this poster did as anyone who can read both our comments can see.
