What a fucking time this is, when cunts like this and Tommeh are standing for election.
To be fair, there have been multiple genuinely far right parties regularly fielding candidates in various UK elections since the 1950s. Ten years ago, the actual white nationalist BNP leader Nick Griffin wasn't just allowed on Question Time, he effectively had the entire episode devoted to him. So that everyone could see him as the unreasonable and hollow sack of shit that he is. Sunlight was the best disinfectant; since then the actual far right has been roundly rejected in this country, the BNP and NF and all their offshoots are back to being tiny loony fringe joke parties, if they even still exist at all. But will the BBC invite Sargon or 'Tommeh' onto Question Time? To expose their so-called phobias and let Bonnie Greer wipe the floor with them? If not why not?
It's all been taken completely out of context according to his disciples. No racism to see here, guv, no siree
Well, it is just a list of all the forbidden words that he has ever used in public. To be fair they do give some context for some of them, and that context is clearly not "he went up to an ethnic minority and screamed racial slurs in their face because he hates ethnic minorities", the context is more that if he hadn't trampled so inelegantly and provocatively all over the sensitivities of a certain class of political journalist/activist, they wouldn't be covering him and this thread wouldn't exist.
Indeed, it was a far lefty friend of mine who alerted me to Sargon's existence when he posted in favour of shutting down a talk he was giving at a university, on the basis that he was "a mouthpiece of the far right". So I watched some of his videos, and discovered that's not what he is, unless you have a problem defining terms and have only ever heard about him via hit pieces on left-wing hack partisan websites like Buzzfeed.
I've had two independent people say the same exact thing to me on two separate occasions, which is that "Sargon has quite the intellectual toolkit on him".
Wow that's a very unusual and specific phrase to arise independently. I don't knowingly know anyone who has even heard of Sargon, except the lad who was trying to get him banned (and they succeeded, you'll all be pleased to hear, sunlight is not the best disinfectant, legal speech must be curtailed for people I disagree with etc).
On the evidence of what little I've read and seen of him so far...
Well quite!
Where did they get that idea from? Does he make interesting videos on history or philosophy to make up for it? I only ask because I've never seen a full video of his.
Possibly they get that idea from having seen some of his full videos, or at least having read and seen more evidence than you. Intellectual doesn't necessarily mean brainbox boffin with a head full of Bertrand Russell, it just describes a process of reasoned analysis, and Sargon sometimes does that quite well, when he's not just openly goading the far left (or the far right) with boorish insults and forbidden words.
My dad said "It's clear which one was the intellectual there", by which he meant Sargon. Again, where are people getting this idea from?
'People'?! Your own dad!? If only we could ask him! Surely he meant that compared to the actual racist white nationalist Richard Spencer, Sargon seemed like the clever one?
They look identical. Good to know how to spot the neu-breed cunt of modern times.
Well no they don't, but I can appreciate from a Guess Who perspective that all 30something white men with beards look the same.
In this "debate" he makes it pretty obvious that he has no intellect to rely on, but he is a pretty effective bully so he gave the impression of winning.
Well he was also up against a sloppy petulant whingeing prick who's even worse at debating than he is, which also helped to give that impression.
He's also remarkably sensitive to other people's free speech for a free speech extremist.
Not sure which examples you mean, he may object to things that people say, but I've never heard him say that anyone should be denied the right to say things that he objects to?
she then asked him to name his top 5 real issues he was standing on and he didn't have any.
Well that's not quite true, he made the reasonable point that as an MEP there'd be no real change that he could affect, and then went on to mention encouraging wider debate on and providing stronger opposition to things like identity politics, political correctness and radical Islam. Obviously these aren't policies like 3p off stamp duty is a policy, but he knows he's only ever going to be an eccentric protest vote in an unimportant facade of an election.
