[Video] Old man speaks up at town hall

Masterful trolling here lmfao

That dude is a bad ass

He had 'em in the first half
- This is why it's really important for white, cis men to be allies.
  If you are a white, cis man and you are inspired by this man, please speak up. Those of us that are minorities can only push the boulder so far and we need voices that Republican (and unfortunately some Democrat) politicians will hear.
  
  And things like this do way more than just the immediate apparent impact. Every time a white cis guy speaks out like this, it helps to break down the lie that this bigoted way of thinking is the majority.
  
  Not if you call me 'cis'.

Mad Respect for this man.
- The execution was 😙👌

I feel like a good portion of the audience was still confused at the end. And you know exactly which portion
- It's like when you use your talking-to-pets voice to tell your dog he's an idiot
- The portion that doesn't care about children with skin that isn't white.
  
  That’s sort of the funny thing. They were disapproving of him, not because they understood he was making a caricature of them, but that he was saying the quiet part out loud.

this guy fucking gets it

This guy's absolute masterclass rhetoric trolling be like:
- Wtf is that from? Is that Resident Alien?
  
  From this show pretty sure. It's very hit and miss on the sketches for me, but the hits are worth sitting through the misses, goddamn hilarious.

Is there a name for the trope where someone gets upset so they stop listening, even if you're right?
- Republican.
  
  I think Conservative might be a better word for this
  
  Most humans, tbh.
- There's probably a German word for it
  
  Gersprekenstufflewaffenspiel
- Narcissism.

Want to steal this man's look and do the same shit

“How dare you say out loud the exact thing that I’m thinking quietly.”

Based
- Fetch
  
  Stop trying to make fetch happen, it's never gonna happen.

so like, should we do something about north korea? They have a lot of human rights abuses?
Just trying to be complete here, since the meme here is that they're brown people we don't have to care about them.
- yes, you can start by not funding north korea. oh look, mission accomplished! now do Israel, you disingenuous ass.
  
  funding them would only cause more human rights abuse though wouldn't it?
  That's the whole argument that north korea uses. Their population will starve and famine if nobody gives them aid money.
- There probably a little more fire for this because the USA is directly responsible for the genocide. As a matter of fact if we did nothing the world would be a better place, and even better if we did something else.
  I don’t recall the human rights abuses in North Korea being a direct result of us intervention.
  
  that's pretty much a history of the world though.
  Everything happens because someone somewhere did something, and sometimes it's bad, sometimes it's good. The US does have a lot of questionable involvement in other countries historically, but so does every other large country, like china, and russia. So i'm not sure how unique that is.
  I mean hell, look at japanese history during the second world war.
  
  I don’t recall the human rights abuses in North Korea being a direct result of us intervention.
  I wouldn't say that the US had nothing to do with it, though. The Korean Civil War was brutal for the south, but it was even more so for the north.
- Probably should stop providing them the means to abuse human rights
  
  they abuse human rights whether or not people give them money.
  This has been demonstrated since the beginning of north korea. Giving them western money might prevent them from spending western money on shit like nukes. But they will still abuse human rights.
