This week, I see if I can finally pop those veins in my forehead whilst recording a diatribe. I can, by the way.

Thanks guys, I work for Dept. of State and am currently posted overseas. There are a lot of LDS who work for DoS and do I truly look forward to and enjoy ALL your podcasts. Things are really stressful these days and hearing your voices helps. Thanks.

2017-01-26 17:54:38 +0000 UTCNoah you absolutely NAILED IT with this diatribe. Thanks for expressing perfectly what I've been failing to put into words on this subject.

2017-01-26 15:49:54 +0000 UTCNo it's not at all fair to say that Gandhi was pro-Nazi in any way. He was naïve and far from the saint that he is sometimes portrayed as -- he upheld the discriminatory caste system and believed women were inferior to men. But he was definitely NOT pro-Nazi. Really... how could a pacifist ever be pro- any regime that believed in territorial expansion through armed conflict??

2017-01-26 15:48:09 +0000 UTCLong time listener- Just gotta say Gandi was in a few ways very pro-nazi. He preached the idea that the jews should have committed collective suicide, source: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mahatma_Gandhi" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mahatma_Gandhi</a>#cite_ref-Wolpert2002_144-0 there are also many other sources available. Also, on the subject of violence- The only way to fight fascism is with violence. Protest within the system of fascism, a system fascism itself upholds makes you nothing except a friend to fascists.

2017-01-26 09:34:51 +0000 UTCI disagree with the diatribe in that it was not a preemptive strike. The Norwegian white supermacist terrorist Anders Breivik cited Spencer and inspiration for the mass murder he committed. Also, Spencer was part of the online mob of misogynists that were harassing women and now attack Eli on Twitter because he stands with safe spaces. There is more nuance to my arguments and I sent an email if you care to read it, because dominating a comment section is not my intention.
