Police used batons and arrested 12 protesters to ensure that Steve Bannon, a neo-Nazi who used to be instrumental in the Trump administration, could join a debate about populist politics against conservative commentator David Frum.

1500 protesters turned up to show Bannon that he was not welcome in Toronto.

Bannon’s controversial appearance attracted protesters from more than 40 social-justice organizations, including anti-poverty activists, unionists and defenders of immigrants and refugees.

Speaker Anna Willats described Bannon and Frum as “two right-wing warmongering peas” in a pod and accused them of spreading neo-liberal and white nationalist ideas.

Speaker Cynthia Levine-Rasky paid tribute to the 11 worshippers who were killed by a Trump gunman at a Pittsburgh synagogue a week ago.

You know, one day you will sink to such a depth that your spade won't be long enough to help you get out and you will remain in a pit of virtue-signalling ordure until you are dug out by the trolls that are the only inhabitants at those depths.
Is Farage back over there again?

It is funny to whine about virtue signalling in a thread about people actually going out and getting arrested to protest fascism.

In your view, I suppose, SJWs are both at the same time weak and fragile virtue-signallers, and also violent lawbreakers who do not respect those poor fascists' individual liberties in their quest to build a communist state?

Nice way to dehumanise your opponents. Are NPCs the new "subhumans"?


Both Players and NPC's are humans... it's just their ability to think is restricted to official programming.

I really appreciated your take on this in the OP.
