the alt-right

I know that now, but over a decade ago it wasn't what he was widely known for (at least among the libertarian set - one friend - at my high school). but obviously if you're someone like RS the pipeline was there. I think for most people he was the legalize it dude, plus anti-war & taxation. I do remember getting into an argument with this friend about RP being pro-life, though.

the sentence being mocked was written in the present though

sorry my reading comprehension is severely compromised today i have like 3 colds and my hands are covered in gauze

do tell

the buried lede is that Spencer's wife was more knowledgeable on historical stuff and had the horrible views before meeting him, and likely did ghostwriting for him

my knuckles are all fucked up and cracked and dry and bleeding and i have no idea why. i also had food poisoning this weekend. ama

sick sh*t

there just isn't an end to her 15 minutes ignominious enough

pretty cool that she can hop a wall into nancy pelosi's property and try opening her front door and not get shot to death right there on the lawn

also good:

Last week, prosecutors in Corvallis, OR decided they would not pursue charges against four activists who were protesting the presence of Oregon neo-Nazi Jimmy Marr and his associates in Corvallis. In December of last year, Marr parked his swastika-emblazoned truck in downtown Corvallis. Shortly after arriving near the truck, the activists were brutally attacked by neo-Nazis. The Nazis fled, while the activists who were subject to the beating were arrested for Disorderly Conduct II. The arrests, quite literally, added insult to injury. CLDC attorneys Lauren Regan and Cooper Brinson, along with National Lawyer's Guild Vice President, Cameron Green (Green Law LLC) represented the protestors.

here's a podcast by a guy who listens to all the alt right podcasts. the first two cover richard spencer and david duke.

One of these kids is gonna be confirmed to the Supreme Court some day

Pretty depressing

can't wait for the school's official response. i'm expecting not too much different from Baraboo and their clutch of budding nazis

Yeah, I thought of the Baraboo photo as well. But am I wrong in getting the impression that this is getting more attention than that?

There's also a particular identifiable victim in this case, the man being harassed. I don't know if that could make a difference.

There seems to be absolute outrage left right and centre about this all over my socials, by comparison i don't remember much about the chucklehounds doing the nazi salutes. There's something especially eerie about being stared at silently while you try and go about your business. Anyone who's done long periods of performing in public places or whatever knows exactly the feeling. It speaks of a very specifically disturbed kind of mind to do that type of shit. What a toerag. He's probably just ruined his whole life.

nah i suspect he'll be just fine.

the only suitable remedy i can see is to take his family's home and make them walk to Oklahoma.

Prez will still manage to "both-sides" this somehow

I can't get over that there was minimum one adult around who was watching this and not removing psychochild from the premises

They were there for an anti-abortion rally.

I refuse to follow politics anymore this shit is too exhausting see y'all in 2020

otm

man what are you supposed to do when it's kids who are chuds

have some fuckin self-respect, kids

All teenagers are chuds.

maybe, but it takes a certain kind of chud to behave like that.

may have been said elsewhere, but this generation of young conservatives is smaller than previous eras, but its preoccupations are almost entirely white/male ID politics

nice to see pretty much everyone on the internet is having the same reaction to that kid as I am

He's now facing expulsion from his Catholic high school so there's that, at least.

All teenagers are chuds.

i don't think this is even remotely true?

for getting caught

I thought that, on average, US Catholics were less racist than members of other denominations.

If this was meant affectionately then aye, I agree. If not, well.

i believe us catholicism is going through a significant amount of, uh, demographic change.

I feel like there are definitely some vaguely liberal dioceses in the (urban) US but you’re talking about religious white ppl in Kentucky. it’s essentially a white ID movement at this point whether you’re taking about evangelicals or conservative Catholics.

A few people posting that kids and parents at this school would be better Trump-voter profile subjects than the usual diner denizens, seeing as they are well-off and educated yet, hmm, still resentful, vindictive, entitled ignorant racist assholes.

There’s educated and ‘educated’ though: the college-educated Trump voter probably didn’t leave their home state for tertiary education and could best be described as petit bourgeois.

i dislike the implication that not traveling equates to ignorance.

Conversely, I've met people who've been to every continent and visited at least half of the world's countries and it hasn't made them any less jingoistic and xenophobic.

it reminds me of the rapist roosh v being interviewed by angela washko, where he assumes she hasn't traveled and is therefore not as experienced as he.

lol or or or prob college educated trump voters are usually christian white dudes

signed,
the petit bourgeois (tx)

Oh, the people I’m thinking of have the cash and inclination to travel, but it’s about their social groupings and values at home that make them Republicans/bigots/conservative.

I don't know what travel has to do with anything. These particular Catholic school kids ($10K a year in tuition) are simply the opposite of the "whoa is me, the coal plant closed down and Mexicans took my job so I'm going to vote for Trump to make things right" class. These folks are well-off and secure, which gives them no place to hide their racist, reactionary intent.

Then again, who knows. There was a stupid-ass kid here in my consciously (and self-consciously, and self-righteously) progressive community who got busted last year for scribbling swastikas and other hate speech on bathroom walls. As far as I can tell, his parents are tolerant, even welcoming upstanding members of the community. Sometimes kids are just shits who make bad decisions, and god help us, historically, when those kinds of kids gather in a group.

hahaha wowowow chuds on social media are really going all in that the native american veteran was the agressor

Hah I saw a guy sincerely try to use “kid was just entranced and fascinated by the music”
