House Speaker Paul Ryan spoke up forcefully in a Facebook post on Monday against the recent violence in Charlottesville and the death of Heather Heyer, the woman killed when a car plowed into a group of counter protestors.
There are no sides, Ryan wrote in an implicit critique of President Donald Trump, who was rebuked by Democrats and Republicans last week for blaming both sides for the violence between white supremacists and counterprotesters in Charlottesville.
There is no other argument, Ryan said in the post, which made no mention of Trump. We will not tolerate this hateful ideology in our society.
Ryan -- who called white supremacy repulsive in a statement after Trumps freewheeling and contentious press conference last Tuesday at Trump Tower -- went on to decry neo-Nazis and their ideology.
We all need to make clear there is no moral relativism when it comes to neo-Nazis, Ryan said. The notion that anyone is intrinsically superior to anyone else runs completely counter to our founding principles.

Tell it to "La Raza" and "Black Lives Matter".
So Communist anarchists are okay. Are you nuts, Ryan???
Ryan is a usurper and a traitor to the President and should be replaced yesterday.
Tolerance until no tolerance. Ok.
Do not confuse equal opportunity in life with equal outcome in life. The globalists feeding crap to the progressive left are promoting equal outcome regardless of investment of time, effort, perseverance, and sacrifice. This of course is a false promise.
So the GOP establishment is *officially* siding with communist terrorists?
Here’s hoping that if Trump declares antifa to be a domestic terrorist organisation, people like Paul Ryan can be swept up for providing aid and comfort to domestic terrorism.
We all need to make clear there is no moral relativism when it comes to neo-Nazis, Ryan said.
We all need to make clear there is no moral relativism when it comes to neo-Communists, I say.
I think it’s intentional misrepresentation now. When Trump referred to sides they damn well know he was referring to violent leftists and violent right. And yes, that is two sides.
He’s judging demagoguing.
Course there are sides. Nazis and Communists on one side.
No sides? What, a group is fighting itself? What a maroon.
And our elected officials with their Cadillac health care while they force Obamacare on us.
STFU Paul Ryan.
Scru u ryan...of course there are “sides”
you saying the hatred from the leftists is okey dokey with you?
you and every other rino need to “check your privelege”, as it were...

His skanky wife is a huge leftist. That means that when it really matters, so is Ryan. The rest is all show, not unlike pro wrestling.
We will not tolerate this hateful ideology in our society.
Referring to Antifa and BLM?
That’s a whole discussion on its own. I’m pointing out Ryan’s self-hating hypocrisy. He condemns white supremacists, but ignores (for example) black supremacists and chicano supremacists.
FU Ryan. There absolutely ARE sides - and you’ve chosen the one you’re on - you side with BLM and AntiFa terrorist organizations.
What a douchebag.
What "violent right"? Seriously. National socialists and Ku Klux Klan are not of the political "right".
