Stew Peters is a far-right virulently anti-LGBTQ bigot who regularly uses his nightly “The Stew Peters Show” program, speeches, and social media accounts to promote white nationalists and antisemites and to spread wild conspiracy theories, …

    Also, the dude is a troll, if the name didn’t give it away.

    Right. So he can advocate for overthrowing the government and then we you call him out on it, he can say, “Hahaha! You’re an idiot for believing me!” And then he’ll happily watch as others overthrow the government should it come to that.

      Mate, if you think a guy who calls himself stupider is being serious, I have a bridge to sell you, it was designed by Ben Dover and Mike Ock.

        From the Rhetoric of Fascism:

        Fascism first secures advantage through playful spectacles of a rhetoric both critical toward and within democracy.

        Stew Peters is hilarious. And it is ridiculous to believe someone that calls himself that.

        But the Just Jokes thing is a trope.

        There is overlap between this trope and emotional abuse.

        It’s the same thing.

        You can try to sell me whatever you want, honestly. But that’s fundamentally different from exercising your supposed free speech any platform to advocate the violent overthrow of the government.

          Mate, you’re putting way too much effort in over a guy who calls himself stupider, and says he was born on April Fools day.

                Oh. You mean revolting? Not the playful rhetoric of violence leading up to it.

                Yeah, no, actual revolution is never as clean as anyone wants it to be. And a bunch of innocent people that just want to live their lives get caught up in someone’s bitch ass feelings being hurt.

                I don’t support revolution, no, communist or otherwise. But these violence adoring fascists with ironic names and quirky messages of sedition can get bent too. That’s all I’m saying.
