he is very sorry for the joke he made which he did not really fully intend or understand, a joke which was kind of foisted on him actually, and to the extent that this thing that happened to him may have troubled other people, he is sorry.

Have read that Hitler was a chaotic insecure leader who had his staff intentionally in conflict to stop them plotting against him. So a big influence on t I take it.
Also he was totally deluded about what was happening towards the end. Moving around tank units that had long since been destroyed. I guess at least t didn't quite manage to get the US into War try as he might. But the quixoticism is still pretty high and I'm sure he'll find some more fun over the next couple of weeks.
I mean why concentrate on the negative stuff.

One really good resource on Race I read this year was Angela Saini's book Superior which looks at the history of race science and shows the major flaws. I.e. why it should be viewed with extreme scepticism since it was set up to explain why the white man was so superior and threw out all the little details as to why he wasn't. She was triggered to write it by seeing a rise in similar thought appearing recently. The book came out in the summer this year.I also read Bruce Pascoe's book Dark Emu which looked into distortion in the Western view of Australian Aboriginal history and culture. Like if one goes into an occupied area in such a way as to destroy the ecosystem and whatever buildings etc are in it one can so easily con oneself that the occupants are rootless nomads. Particularly when it helps your expansionist ideas.
Current read David Olusoga on various ethnicities brought into the First World War and fighting outside Europe.Input has been all too readily ignored.

We don’t “complain” of racist treatment. WE RECEIVE IT. Amplify her story. Then do something about it. https://t.co/HJKec1W7pi— Jessica Isom MD MPH (@DrJessIsomMDMPH) December 24, 2020

Honestly this was so gratifying because I've been in line at a convenience store behind "that racist guy" too many times. Dude will always start out by being a garden variety asshole -- wanting attention, flexing his power by holding up the line and trying to "be funny" ... and nobody gives a fuck, people want to get their frozen pizza, their sale beer, ice cream, doritos, cigarettes, tampons, etc. and get the fuck home. Everyone there was probably already thinking, "this guy is an asshole" and I'm sure at least a few of them were also thinking, "I bet this guy is also racist AF. Is he gonna start on some racist shit?" ... and then, because dude wanted attention and power and an audience, yep, racist AF. Meanwhile, everyone there is having their time wasted by this idiot. ... In summary, Mr. TeaKO -- a true hero.

“I called my wife soon as I got in the car,” he said. “By the time I got in the car and started moving and backed out and got on the road, I’m telling my wife, ‘I hit a guy in the face with a can.’ She’s like, ‘I know. I’m watching it.’ The lady had 5,000 views by the time I drove two blocks home.”

Gen Z? Lol everyone I know is posting memes about it, but Twisted Tea is also very popular with aging punks, so that might explain it.

It’s funny because I feel like there was a moment maybe in the Odd Future era where young millennial whites where just gonna push through and start using that word in a friendly manner. I wonder if this dude came up in that era or is just the regular, timeless asshole

Loled at how he looked shook before he weakly came at Tea-K.O. after he got hit with the tea.

At the tail end of the video he smiles slightly to himself, as if to tell himself, "I fought a black man and I'm able to walk away - that was so badass of me" when the truth is the black guy could have pulped him, but decided to let his pitiful ass off easy.
