lol point taken, it's just my hometown so I take it all personal, plus the Harris assault charge is such BS

I would play that game

take over the minds of college students by stealthily deploying texts in the curriculum

BArK? a karl sent me over from the samantha bee thread where I was posting this:

Hello! First post from a random mutt wandering by. Last week a Samantha Bee show producer spent an hour with me scoping out a story...

Speaking of patchy, that's my byline where I write about furries. Lately there's a bit of a nazi problem in that community, yes that's a word for it lately too...

There's a new book about them out yesterday from Cleis Press. And speaking of the nazi thing here's tags for it (one) (two) if you care.

The news site is a silly hobby thing, but interesting stuff has happened with it. The nazi thing is yet another push into geek groups (along with gaming, sci fi, comics) so we had some infiltrators document them from the inside, which synched with the Charlottesville nazi marching. I documented a couple of them on the scene of violence. We had them do "swatting" against a furry convention with a 5-figure security cost. And there's been more in the news like another convention getting ruined by them, I broke a story about it that Rolling Stone picked up. With all this going on I would be into stepping up the game by learning from peers in indie reporting.

Bark!

Gov. Rick Scott on Monday declared a state of emergency in Alachua County three days ahead of a scheduled speech at the University of Florida campus in Gainesville by the white nationalist Richard Spencer.

“I find that the threat of a potential emergency is imminent,” Scott said in a seven-page executive order.

The governor’s order, Number 17-264, gives all state agencies the power to suspend rules and regulations, including for purchasing, travel and personnel actions. Scott also activated his authority as governor to spend surplus money as he deems necessary.

Never let a good crisis go to waste, even when there is no crisis, yet.

Nixon, right?

hitler is coming, need to grant myself dictatorial powers to stop him.. wait.. what?

I am trying very hard not to fixate on the concept of "Nazi furries" and failing spectacularly.

Do they call themselves Hairyans? Is their leader Der Furrer?

Der Furrier

You guys have not heard of foxler have you

I have not and am scurred

Richard Spencer getting triggered by the crowd at Univ. of Florida.

Spencer is pacing the stage alone, yelling into the mic, telling crowd they are immature, saying reaction shows his own power. #SpencerAtUF pic.twitter.com/dALPuP3VqU

This is what it sounds like during the Q&A. Spencer trying to explain white ethno-state. Audience keeping up the noise. #SpencerAtUF pic.twitter.com/W0umTCmIuv

All of those people deserve to be murdered

Can’t finish the article

xp that's a little hard on ProPublica

nobody hurt, but

nice juxtaposition in those last two paragraphs

“It’s always been socially acceptable to punch a Nazi, to attack people if they have right-wing political leanings,” Fears said. “Us coming in and saying we’re taking over your town, we’re starting to push back, we’re starting to want to intimidate back. We want to show our teeth a little bit because, you know, we’re not to be taken lightly. We don’t want violence; we don’t want harm. But at the end of the day, we’re not opposed to defending ourselves.”

Fears was arrested in 2009 on an aggravated kidnapping charge after abducting a female acquaintance in Texas, media reports show.

seems v punchable tbqh

It’s always been socially acceptable to punch a Nazi

Operation Anthropoid proved that, for sure

“It’s always been socially acceptable to punch a Nazi, to attack people if they have right-wing political leanings,”

MILO (or more correctly, that guy that actually writes MILO's shit) says you can be one, but not both!

Lauren Southern is coming to my uni's campus tomorrow.

We don’t want violence; we don’t want harm. But at the end of the day, we’re not opposed to defending ourselves.
This was the same thing one of those angry bald whiteys said in the Vice doco about the original Charlottesville protests. And then he went on to say he'd happily shoot and kill anyone if he had to. While he fussed over his huge stash of guns on his hotel bed.

is she the psycho that blocked refugee boats in the mediterranean?

Holy fuck this is a chilling read: https://www.thedailybeast.com/youtube-trumpkin-and-former-milo-intern-kills-his-own-dad-for-calling-him-a-nazi

Lane Davis told detectives that the fight had started over “whether toddlers could consent to sex or not,”

"Nazi" is too precise a term for these wrong-side-of-everything fuckheads.

He was probably not arguing that they could, if he was also into Pizzagate.

Somewhat reinforces my suspicions about contributors to /r/The_Donald - it would be nice if reddit could somehow sticky this story on there

He was probably not arguing that they could, if he was also into Pizzagate.

nah, probably the dad was arguing that the pizzagate scandal was an insane conspiracy theory and the kid was arguing that toddlers can't consent.

you're assuming that the crazy trump supporter who stabbed him dad to death was having a comprehensible argument

his*

tru

it all sounds like the guy is clearly mentally unwell, big time. that's a really sad story. the moral seems to be if your adult child is living at home and spending too much time on the internet and having episodes, get them help. it's not "a phase."

Yes. She's here to speak about "the Evils of Socialist Authoritarianism and Necessity of Free Speech". http://www.citypages.com/news/alt-right-darling-lauren-southern-to-bring-troll-act-to-university-of-minnesota/

Nothing like utilizing the campus of a huge state school to decry socialism…

Yeah I love seeing RONPAUL/Gary Johnson stickers on cars parked in the lots at the giant land-grant public universities I've worked at.

it all sounds like the guy is clearly mentally unwell, big time.

No, it doesn't. It sounds like this guy is a rage-filled asshole who finally crossed a line he couldn't walk back over.

Mordy OTM, "why are you defending paedophiles" is "why are you pointing out that all I have to argue with is a thick slurry of conspiracy theory, homophobia and anti-semitism" when translated through the crazy wall.

Always suspicious of anyone who kicks up that much of a performative hooha about paedophilia tbh.

the far/fringe right has always preyed on/chewed up the mentally ill in this way, it's fucking disgusting.

Many XPs but i doubt this was a convo with a pro "toddlers can consent" position. it was probably more like:

"the Democrats are raping toddlers at this pizza place."

"I highly doubt that"

"oh so you're saying the toddlers are consenting?"

etc.

nomar - can you link to the tumlr page you found this image? http://78.media.tumblr.com/c6aed4a511529529fea10d4306320105/tumblr_inline_oix6h4Bzdh1tfpjwx_500.jpg
