I don't choose to believe anything about Neeson, I really don't care nor do any of us have any clue if he's racist or not.

We also don't even know if Neeson thinks that story of his involves racism, because he didn't address it.... I suspect he does think it was racist,I suspect that he feels regret over that fact.

I do not know that because he didn't say as much, he only expressed regret directly for the concept of revenge and wanting to kill people.

Had he directly addressed the racism (if he actually believes it was racist), there might have been a different reaction to the story.

But I guess I'm just etiolating here.  Fuck you guys are fucking circle jerking morons.

For what it's worth, I agree. Neeson avoids directly addressing the racism in his reaction which is why a lot of black folks aren't exactly ready to forgive and forget.

To be sure, even if he had given a 2 hour lecture on what exactly he's done to address his racism there would still be people ready to "cancel" him.

But of course folks are gunna circle jerk here.

How can you condemn a group of people entirely based on what you admit is your own opinion/viewpoint?

As humans we do this every day. It's quite easy.

[Cauliflower Of Love]

You are magically attributing a pause between those 2 statements.. "And my reaction was..... I asked.. did she know who it was?".. as somehow Liam Neesan admitting to and apologizing for racism.

Amazing.

I mean, you're free to interpret what he said however you want, but to my eyes he was telling a personal anecdote - warts and all - to show how he can understand how other people can get caught up in a cycle of hatred - for example the religious intolerance that the Troubles consisted of, or contemporary hate crimes - and that he moved past it and is ashamed that he was ever in that position.

Just seems... weird to me to need footnotes in that anecdote to explain the racist part is racist, and a special condemnation specifically for the racist part to distance himself from it, when literally the entire anecdote is about the shame he feels for that period of his life.

Even if he explicitly said it, most of era would be like "yeah ok sure whatever buddy, don't things don't just go away".

[benjipwns]

You know what they need is a race war thread. A thread with no moderation and no hard feeling where people can say what they REALLY think about mayos and nuggets

i did like the part of the Neeson one where the mods said no punishment for endorsing race-based murder

[benjipwns]

We shouldn't let them claim anything. Hell, we should unite and fight to take back Pepe the frog. He's a victim.

The original artist tried. I don't remember where that lawsuit ended up, but he spent quite a bit of money to get the proper rights returned to him.

Memes are funny though. Even if he went after the right wing elements using pepe the frog, they probably would still use it.

I can practically see the veins bulging in Deepwater’s head right now. And given that guy’s history, it’s hilarious that he’s acting like he hasn’t wanted harm on someone for being white.

All I said was he'd probably have gotten a different reaction had he addresed the racism aspect.

Like.. what is controversial about my statement?   "Well he paused bro"... why did you argue that?

I never once stated how I interpreted his comments.

I mean... you had issues that "my vibe" was that he knew it was racist of him, and he was ashamed of that, but you're saying that you suspect that to be the case as well.
He probably is going to put out a comment specifically addressing racism, because - depressingly - that seems to be the only aspect of this story that certain people give a fuck about.

Well, if you want a sane answer, I think he should address them as well. He didn’t dance around the race issue, but focused on the him feeling violent and fantasizing about it. Given it is 40 years, and to me knowledge. No other signs otherwise, I’m willing to wait and see if he does address it. If he doesn’t, then that’s kinda an answer.

But, despite the insane in that thread, I totally understand having irrational rage after having a friend raped. I mean, it is believable and understandable, though not condonable.

And before anyone else it does it...

Dismantlement of white supremacy. A South African style recognition of the problem with a German-style purging of white supremacist symbols in society. Significant cash flow routed back to ailing neighborhoods and businesses of color. Tax breaks and debt waivers for people of color. The whole shebang.

It will never happen, but things like that are the least you could do for the shit y'all continue to pull.

thanks, will write a letter to my congressman

Good thing they said symbols instead of people, because you better not dig too deep in most German politicans CV after the war until like the 90s.

And you dont see anything wrong with that? Why he needs to do a 2 hour lecture for saying a introspective anecdote of something that happened decades ago that ended in him doing nothing. Is not about forgiveness but people in Reee claiming for his head for forgeting his PR and saying "Racism is wrong BTW".

People complain about famous people being shallow assholes but when a little openess cause such a fucking shitstorm...

Definitely.

And then they'd go on to forget why they were upset at Liam Neeson in about 3 weeks, until a few days after his death they're reminded by an errant tweet.

So they'd go into a thread on his obituary and smugly remind everyone that Liam Neeson was a violent racist

Actually, it’s sus to me that Nepethene went back and banned them afterwards.

Nah, she woulda permed them. But yeah, that’s some bad faith modding right there. Retroactive honey pot, but I’d except nothing less from ERA.

Top Tip for ERA posters: NEVER post in contentious threads. Not even once. Neeson’s murder spree 40 years ago is coming back to haunt him, you don’t think Mods there will go back and retroactively action you?

Basically, the narrative started that the racists kids were mocking a Native American.

New video surfaced that revealed that the racist kids were in a bigoted shouting match with some black Israeli group when the Native American came up to try and defuse the situation. THEN The racist kids started mocking a Native American.

So, because the Native American walked up to them, they and their supporters think their racism is fine.

This is the most disingenuous and factually incorrect summary of the situation I've read yet, congrats.

[GreatSageEqualOfHeaven]

What I want to know is how all these folks know from personal experience that trying to lynch folks after trauma is an easily-forgivable reaction.

He has shown no realization of the virulent racism one must possess to only be stopped from lynching a black man simply because one wasn't found in a reasonable time frame

Nothing he's done suggests he's done anything to confront and remove the amount of racism you have to be indoctrinated by to try and lynch a black man.

is this like candyman or beetlejuice where you say it 3 times and it magically comes true?

marrec's defense of racism getting BTFO: https://www.resetera.com/threads/racist-covington-kids-to-sue-everyone-who-thinks-theyre-racists.97679/post-17577263

Now this is disingenuous. The lengths people go to downplay racism.

That's a lot of words excusing white kids sporting MAGA hats throwing tomahawks at native Americans. This is some truly shameful shit. No one cares who approached who because it doesn't erase the racism.

But keep peddling this both sides shit for privileged, racist white kids who are rich enough to hire PR firms to spin for them while you and the media gobble it up.

We're now at the point of the thread where treating native Americans like a sports mascot is dancing and singing

All these "probablies" and "maybes". I can't hold them

Then maybe you shouldn't be disingenuous with your framing, arguing that the confrontation was "mostly nothing". Bullshit.

Did your additional context also link the videos where these kids were shouting rape jokes and catcalling women walking by? Or the kid who told the native Americans their land was supposed to be stolen because that's just now it goes?

But.. yeah, must be mostly nothing I guess

Because you posted half assed context, which I just brought to your attention. Read my post again. You left out damning parts of the video.

There were multiple videos from multiple cameras, taken at various times throughout the day. What is your point?

Yet here you are choosing and selecting a context that leaves out racist and sexist behavior.

Are you ignorant to the full context or just posting in bad faith?

Haha I can't even with these fucking people.

[GreatSageEqualOfHeaven]

[NegativeCrepe]

everyone is online and 24 guests lol o7

hey era mods dont you have people to ban for wrongthink?

[benjipwns]

Ah, you're a racist apologizer. That puts the nuanced context on your earlier response to me.

Oh, ok, so you are posting in bad faith. As if the context of these kids catcalling, making sexist jokes and racist commentary about justifying native Americans' stolen land is irrelevant to what transpired. Since their entire defense relies on spinning the narrative into "we were just innocent choirboys doing silent prayers until the mean minority inserted himself into the situation". Give me a fucking break.

Or is this all just under your category of "mostly nothing"?

It's so fucking infuriating isn't it? It's like these fucks don't uderstand why it hit a cord. I'm so tired of this bulllshit. Especially whatever the fuck that is about how this is now a partison tool. Fuck you.

His new movie is now a comedy apparently:

"Hey Liam, I need you to do an interview about your snow plow comedy. All you have to do is just sit through the interview and not say anything psycho, can you do that? Just make jokes about how much you hate cold weather, definitely don't say anything about the time you walked around with racism spurred murderous intent, okay?"

imdb:

A snowplow driver seeks revenge against the drug dealers he thinks killed his son. Based on the 2014 Norwegian film 'In Order of Disappearance'.
