But I found this.

I just seem to be able to deal better with print over video with this topic.

SPOILER IF YOU HAVE NOT WATCHED THE VIDEO YET AT THE BOTTOM OF MY POST.

What an astounding f-up this person is...

Sorry, got my Hitler notes on Jews mixed up with my KKK notes on African-Americans confused with my creationist views on life entwined with my misogynist views on women entangled with someone's disgust with cockroaches ...

Please give me a minute to sort it out ....

Let us not make the same mistakes of the past. "Stand on the right side of history."

It wasn't that he was "confused" he was using his speech to show how others are confused, and relying on similar bigotry.

I didn't watch until end. I reacted in anger at what seemed to be, and in fact was, a religious hate rant (though not by the present speaker), and shut it down at 'notes' moment. Gotta admit, the guy was a very good actor.

All was revealed in the final seconds. Thanks for the correction.

I know we're supposed to fall all over ourselves to applaud this guy on his switcheroo performance art, but... we kinda need to win one of these battles. Maybe religion could take a little rest, eh?

Did you get it from George Takei on FB as did I ?

Its very subtle and I had to watch it a couple of times to grasp his message of "same old same old".
