It's hard to tell exactly but I think enough people have seen this to declare the kid shot his board out under the high bicycle of a Trump supporter either the day of or days following Trump's arrest in NYC. So just days ago. How is this acceptable behavior, and to the point where a highly praised legendary brand like Baker promotes this? Or is a violent act like this OK, because 99% of skateboarders hate Republicans, and violence against someone they disagree with is not only acceptable but encouraged?
Thoughts on how this would this play out if it were a Republican taking down a Biden supporter at a rally of some kind? It's interesting to me how skateboarding today is all about "diversity" and "inclusivity" and accepting all yet there seems to be a general one way of thinking in the skateboarding world, at least in the US, which is very much left leaning. And if you don't agree, you're cancelled.
My take is it's wrong, and messed up they'd post this. One thing for it to have gone down just while on their trip, another to post and promote it. Jamie Foy also posted it.

It was hilarious. Anybody who is into any politician enough to dress from head to toe in said politicians propaganda deserves at least as much. Left or right, doesn't matter.
Also, I hope you're never exposed to any skate videos from earlier than like 2012. Especially tour videos. All sorts of stuff in them that will offend you I'm sure.

It’s not that deep homie.

Yeah, that was fucked up. You can’t just attack someone because they have a different political opinion than you. Pretty simple.

Fuck em both, two wrongs don't make a right.

Any one this fucking stupid deserves what they got. In the words of so many maga folk. Okay stupid games with stupid prizes. Dressing like a dork to shout how you love a politician. Any politician you deserve some backlash. Also looking at skateboarders on Insta I don’t think 99% of skateboarders hate republicans because there’s weirdly a lot of republican or very conservative takes from skateboarders. All politicians are crooks and pieces of shit. But trump is a fucking con man born with a silver spoon in his mouth and got to fucking lazy and got caught running his grift. Fuck trump fuck the gullible maga clowns too. Before we get into it fuck Biden. They ain’t my homies.

Normally I’d agree with you here, but these extreme Trump MAGA supporters are the exception imo. They are delusional fucking assholes who thought it was ok to storm the capital, kill a police officer, and try to frame it as a ‘peaceful protest’. Knocking one of them off a bike doesn’t compare to the shit that these clowns are willing to do to support their lord and savior.

You’re confused, which is understandable. MAGA loves fascism and hates anti fascism. American conservatism is antithetical to skateboarding. Therefore, republicans/fascists/conservatives aren’t welcome in skateboarding.

as the saying goes, "Punching Nazis is always cool"
sounds like this dude was actually just pretending to be a far-right piece of shit for his Youtube channel or some shit which actually makes him even more punchable imo. fair game for sure. fascists should always be afraid to be in public. this dude thought it would be funny to pretend to be one and he got what he deserved.
mainstream skateboarding doesn't tend to take a lot of risks politically, probably because there are a ton of product-buying right-wing dudes in the scene who hate "the woke agenda" or whatever, so I like that Baker and the other folks involved owned this one proudly. all got a couple points in my book

I think you have to give Loady a bit more context
Maga heads claim to be about individual freedom, but don't understand that they are walking contradictions. The maga base is all about freedom until it comes to anything remotely related to culture war. In terms of leadership they love democracy, but only if their guy is put in charge forever.
But yes they don't make sense, but only because most of them just repeat what they heard on fox news the other night. Hope this helps

What's a fascist?
A fascist is someone who supports or promotes fascism—a system of government led by a dictator who typically rules by forcefully and often violently suppressing opposition and criticism, controlling all industry and commerce, and promoting nationalism and often racism.
That’s from dictionary.com (let me guess they lean left or a fake news?)
If that description doesn’t fit Trump best, even after seeing his behavior leading to and since January 6th there’s really not much point in discussing it. These would support putting Trump in power regardless of any election, that’s antithetical to American governance, and rightfully angers most Americans. Most of the fears that trump has convinced his followers are bigger threats to their lives than helping him gain power by any means, are markedly fascist in nature (fear of the other).

The problem is that the MAGAs use the term "fascist" as a synonym for anything they perceive as "authoritarian" which is convenient for them as it overlooks their obvious fascist tendencies. You can thank grifters like Dinesh D'Souza for popularizing the whole left wingers are the real fascists BS because the nazi's official name included "socialist" in their name. I'm not sure if any of you have tried explaining why MAGA's characterization of left wing people as fascists is logically false to an actual MAGA, but it's fucking exhausting and ultimately a waste of time.

They’re always going on about hunters laptop and payments for the big guy, yet I don’t know anyone who’s like “if you can prove biden got illegal payments it’s no big deal”. Lock biden up too. And if this guy was pretending to be a trump supporter, protesting the indictment, then doubly fuck him. That shits less helpful than any of the options.

It's interesting to me how skateboarding today is all about "diversity" and "inclusivity" and accepting all yet there seems to be a general one way of thinking in the skateboarding world
Ugh this take is so dumb and I’m sick of hearing it.
“Oh yeah if we want to consider our community inclusive, we have to welcome all viewpoints.“ So if your viewpoint is hateful, racist, and xenophobic, we have to embrace and accept you in the name of inclusivity? Fuck outta here with that shit.
Skating isn’t inclusive these days. Contests specifically for certain sexual orientations and even whole “private” skate sessions at public DIYs where they ask you not come. Who in their right mind thinks that’s okay

I love it when right wing people are too cowardly to own their shit and instead hide behind bad faith rhetorical questions.
What even is fascism???
You know what it is. It's the cruel shit you believe in
Do you actually think every Republican or trump voter is fascist and a believer in cruel shit? They’re people that voted for a different criminal than you voted for.

Joe Biden is not a criminal, that’s stupid. Not every Republican is a fascist in their heart, but everyone who votes for Republicans is enabling fascism and a solid percentage of them are cruel people. If you can’t tell the difference between the two parties you should have your eyes examined.

Yeah, a small government. Is that a better governing strategy than a massive federal government? That’s debatable. You could argue that there are holes left in the free market system that only a government can fill.
But the mere notion of a smaller central government in itself is not evil, you have the sneakysecrets seal of approval on that.

Yes but one of those criminals' political parties is also actively rolling back women's reproductive rights and wanted to make it legal to fire people on the basis of being transgender and/or gay, amongst other things.

The republican party hasn't been small government for a long time. They are literally legislating about what is allowed to happen in a women's body. Doesn't get more big government than controlling your health care. I don't think the republican platform (do they even have substantive policy anymore?) Is anything but hateful culture war stuff now.

I liked it. At a certain point you're asking for it. This guy is parading through the streets after presumably being involved in the jan 6 riot, and or cosplaying that same loser. Be a liberal but not a total pussy, eventually this whole division will come to real blows anyway.
Edit: can't believe the amount of cucked presumably middle aged Mikey Taylor loving losers in here. It's sad because daddy trump is never going to put it in your mouth, even if you beg. Republicans are whatever and super annoying, but you guys are massive massive losers pushing an agenda that's not even veiled. Turn your boards in or get eternally stop rocked.

Obviously there’s virtue in both small government vs larger federal government, but that’s beside the point when we’re talking about a political cult that this person was impersonating (and is far to pervasive on the right currently).
This is like someone having issue with heavens gate and you trying to reduce it to people who are for or against space exploration. Any similarities to MAGA and the traditional right are just minor features, Trumpism is not normal, and boiling its weirdness down to a belief in “small government”, is disingenuous or dumb. Q shaman wasn’t about small government, he was about trump stopping a baby eating cabal of deep state pedophiles. The sooner we’re rid of it the better.

Neither major political party legitimately wants a small government.
Republicans being the party of "small government" is debatable. They support unlimited military and law enforcement spending. They support the expansion of the prison industrial complex. The expansion of the police state. Strong federal restrictions on immigration. They support the government regulating people's bodies, what goes on in people's bedrooms, how you're allowed to express your gender, what you're allowed to teach, etc. Even if you restrict the concept of a small government to just the economy, they have no problem with huge bailouts for corporations when the free market eventually crashes. Red states use more federal funding than blue states. "Small government" is just a slogan with no actual substance. Republicans are simply against the government preventing them from doing what they want, while being completely fine with the government doing stuff to other people. They're only "small government" when it comes to the government doing anything to protect workers or working class people, and the IRS staying out of their business when they're doing white collar crimes.
They're just as much of hypocrites as so many Democrats who act like they're the party of the working class, while working at the behest of corporations, and any sort of reform to our system to benefit workers is seen as "too radical", and they even conspire against the thought.

It's hard to tell exactly but I think enough people have seen this to declare the kid shot his board out under the high bicycle of a Trump supporter either the day of or days following Trump's arrest in NYC. So just days ago. How is this acceptable behavior, and to the point where a highly praised legendary brand like Baker promotes this? Or is a violent act like this OK, because 99% of skateboarders hate Republicans, and violence against someone they disagree with is not only acceptable but encouraged?
Thoughts on how this would this play out if it were a Republican taking down a Biden supporter at a rally of some kind? It's interesting to me how skateboarding today is all about "diversity" and "inclusivity" and accepting all yet there seems to be a general one way of thinking in the skateboarding world, at least in the US, which is very much left leaning. And if you don't agree, you're cancelled.
My take is it's wrong, and messed up they'd post this. One thing for it to have gone down just while on their trip, another to post and promote it. Jamie Foy also posted it.

The thread surely has gotten heated!
It reminds me of experiences I had in my mid-20s. I was not really doing much of anything with my life. Each day was a party with my friends who were on the same “program,” if you know what I mean.
We spent most of our time just partying and doing juvenile stuff, like lighting bags of dog poop on fire and leaving it on people’s doorsteps.
Eventually, I decided to get it together so I could take over my family’s business. But, there was a catch. I would have to re-take every single grade, from kindergarten to twelfth grade, in a two week period of time for each grade, to prove I was worthy of taking over the business. Along the way, I realized one of my father’s associates was a really bad apple. He also happened to have some really weird looking balls…
…anyway, his ulterior motives came to light eventually via his speech and his actions and everyone learned that his biggest weakness was in business ethics. He reminds me a lot of tRump.
In the end, I learned how important education is and that it really is all about the friends we make along the way.
This is how I feel.

This thread also reminds me of me in my 40’s where I just grasp onto anything to spew some political bullshit that no one wants to hear…..

Yea, I'm sure the 10a, two hours session every other Sunday for women and LGBTQ ppl wherever you live is really limiting your ability to be a total creep at the skate park and play with your toy. Hit the streets and quit being a total pussy homie. Your slappy curb at the park will still be there at noon.

Just wanted to come back and say thanks for all the feedback, I couldn't help but wonder what the community on Slap would have to say about it and to my surprise the answers were mixed. Some points I wanted to come out and say:
-Not all Republicans / right leaning people are fascists and want to control people (eg- abortion) they just simply don't agree with most of what the progressive left stands for, and the state of the country. It's not like every single right leaner wants abortion illegal. I for one don't. There are just more things about the right that I agree with politically than the left. Abortion will never go away. It's at the state level. And as long as the United States remains a democracy, there will always be blue states that will allow abortion.
-If it's true this guy did this as a left leaning Youtuber making a mockery of Trump supporters, than he is indeed a fucking idiot and got what he deserved. Although I don't believe the kid who did it knew that, and was of the mind he was taking down a Trump supporter
-I'm still on the fence with the inclusivity part which is a separate topic from this specifically. It coincides with my first point, not every right leaning person is a fascist, racist, LGBQT hater, etc. Most of them just don't want to change the school system to include gender theory, or allow gender transitioning surgery to minors, or drag shows for children. Pretty straightforward and sensible. Basically do what you want, but keep it away from our kids, don't breed them into this. It's unfortunate that left leaning people tend to not accept this idea and dismiss it with an all or nothing attitude.
Moral of the story to me is as reckless as skating is, and always will be, which I would never want to change, causing senseless violence to people who have done nothing to hurt you physically, is absolutely uncalled for and should not be promoted.

I know you think you're reasonable etc but you're just an asshole and talking to you is pointless. Stay away from other people's bodies and gfy. Ask yourself why you're so obsessed with children. Wanted to add, that every major medical and psychological association etc disagrees with you so what do you know. GET OVER IT.

these are issues that nobody in the republican party cared about until like six months ago. trump didn't run on these issues in 2016 or 2020. he ran on cutting taxes, building a border wall, and locking up hillary clinton. you're either gullible as fuck with the memory of a goldfish, 15 years old, or totally disingenuous. frankly i shouldn't even respond to such foolishness.
and anyway, if you watch the video, you can tell it was an accident. stop trying to make everything political.

So after your whole pearl-clutching diatribe, if he was pretending to be a trump supporter, but was actually some libertard then you are suddenly ok with the unprovoked violence?
I wish we lived in a world where this level of stupidity and hypocrisy was obviously trolling, but you imbeciles would read “a modest proposal” as sound policy suggestion.

It's quite annoying to me that you don't understand the implication of keeping the fact that LGBTQ exist away from children. Do you not see that it implies that LGBTQ people are somehow bad? Also, you do know that not all violence comes in the physical form right? Republican politicians have put forward hundreds of anti-LGBTQ laws into place throughout the country and waged an endless barrage of attacks on them, especially by labelling them as groomers. Do you not see how that can and will eventually lead to violence against them? If you support the current brand of Republicanism, you inherently support violence, regardless of if it's physical or not.

-Not all Republicans / right leaning people are fascists and want to control people (eg- abortion) they just simply don't agree with most of what the progressive left stands for, and the state of the country. It's not like every single right leaner wants abortion illegal. I for one don't. There are just more things about the right that I agree with politically than the left. Abortion will never go away. It's at the state level. And as long as the United States remains a democracy, there will always be blue states that will allow abortion.
-If it's true this guy did this as a left leaning Youtuber making a mockery of Trump supporters, than he is indeed a fucking idiot and got what he deserved. Although I don't believe the kid who did it knew that, and was of the mind he was taking down a Trump supporter
-I'm still on the fence with the inclusivity part which is a separate topic from this specifically. It coincides with my first point, not every right leaning person is a fascist, racist, LGBQT hater, etc. Most of them just don't want to change the school system to include gender theory, or allow gender transitioning surgery to minors, or drag shows for children. Pretty straightforward and sensible. Basically do what you want, but keep it away from our kids, don't breed them into this. It's unfortunate that left leaning people tend to not accept this idea and dismiss it with an all or nothing attitude.
Moral of the story to me is as reckless as skating is, and always will be, which I would never want to change, causing senseless violence to people who have done nothing to hurt you physically, is absolutely uncalled for and should not be promoted.
It's quite annoying to me that you don't understand the implication of keeping the fact that LGBTQ exist away from children. Do you not see that it implies that LGBTQ people are somehow bad? Also, you do know that not all violence comes in the physical form right? Republican politicians have put forward hundreds of anti-LGBTQ laws into place throughout the country and waged an endless barrage of attacks on them, especially by labelling them as groomers. Do you not see how that can and will eventually lead to violence against them? If you support the current brand of Republicanism, you inherently support violence, regardless of if it's physical or not.
Shit, if I'd known a single trans adult as a teenager I could've made sense of my own dysphoria way earlier and saved myself years of anguish. Instead I just spent that time wrapped up in self-loathing. Preventing kids from learning about queer people and culture doesn't protect them from anything, it holds them back or fucking kills them

It's interesting to me how skateboarding today is all about "diversity" and "inclusivity" and accepting all yet there seems to be a general one way of thinking in the skateboarding world
Ugh this take is so dumb and I’m sick of hearing it.
“Oh yeah if we want to consider our community inclusive, we have to welcome all viewpoints.“ So if your viewpoint is hateful, racist, and xenophobic, we have to embrace and accept you in the name of inclusivity? Fuck outta here with that shit.
Pretty much this
