Buffalo Shooting

[Rubashov]

I don't think we're significantly less ****ed up here but at least these arseholes can't get guns.

 

[Al-O-Meter]

So many Republicans endorse white replacement theory. Why?

This is reporting on an opinion piece written in another media outlet intended for an audience of idiots. The lead-off should read “opinion writer said….”. The undeniable fact is the most racist people in America are on the political left. The opinion writer whose work is being reported on is on the political left. If someone initiates a point in which race is specifically cited, you can all but guarantee that person is on the political left.

The single most prominent white nationalist leader is Richard Spencer, and he endorsed Joe Biden after Bernie dropped out. There is video of Spencer giving speeches in which audience members are literally doing the Nazi Roman salute with their arms.

White Nationalist Richard Spencer votes for Joe Biden: "To hell with Libertarian ideology"

"To hell with libertarian ideology," Richard Spencer tweeted Tuesday. "I'm a libertarian when I want to be."

www.newsweek.com

Richard Spencer isn’t an outlier. The organizer of the Charlottesville rally where morons carried tiki torches while chanting “Jews will not replace us’ was Jason Kessler, a long time and very active democrat. Per the left-leaning Washington Post:

A decade ago, [Jason Kessler] worked the phones at night for Secrest Strategic Services, the now-defunct Democratic polling outfit. He voted for Barack Obama in 2008. He spent time at the Occupy Wall Street encampment in Charlottesville in 2011, until he was kicked out for trying to register homeless people

In this post, The Thriller seems to be following the dictates attributed to Joseph Goebbels; “Accuse the other side of that which you are guilty”.

I think our lax gun laws and sick gun culture definitely contributes to the situation we have. But the main catalyst is right wing extremism exploiting racial animosity and fear.

For republicans, this is just another page in the story against their political enemies and the “impure” and “non-American” people trying to take over the country.

Whether we’re talking about “the caravan invasion”, “The Big Lie”, or “Biden hoarding baby formula for immigrants.”

The narrative is clear, white conservative evangelical Americans are under siege against doctors, public school teachers, the LGBT community, liberals, and POC and immigrants. It’s why just a few weeks ago we were seeing men trying their private parts on Tucker’s show; it’s all part of the narrative that America is losing something and we must “take it back.” In that case, manhood and manliness, back. It’s what gives life to the “White Replacement Theory” so popular among Republicans today.

This is an important thread:

And it’s important to know where millions of your fellow Americans are learning about white replacement theory from:

He’s not the only one. Read this, is it any wonder why we have mass shootings like the church in South Carolina, synagogue in Pittsburg, dance club in Orlando, El Paso Walmart, Kyle Rittenhouse, now Buffalo?

"Conservatism" is no Longer Enough

All hands on deck as we enter the counter-revolutionary moment.

americanmind.org

most people living in the United States today—certainly more than half—are not Americans in any meaningful sense of the term.

I don’t just mean the millions of illegal immigrants. Obviously, those foreigners who have bypassed the regular process for entering our country, and probably will never assimilate to our language and culture, are—politically as well as legally—aliens. I’m really referring to the many native-born people—some of whose families have been here since the Mayflower—who may technically be citizens of the United States but are no longer

This is fascism folks. And it’s our #1 threat to our democracy. Until we address the ugly hatred and bigotry being spouted everyday by Republicans and their propagandists, we’ll continue to see more senseless attacks on our government and on our communities.

The undeniable fact is the most racist people in America are on the political left.

How do you measure "most racist"? Because almost all of the people who discuss racist tropes are on the right.

The single ... Richard Spencer,

Richard Spencer isn’t an outlier. ... Jason Kessler

List two people, out of thousands, is virtually a defining example of "outlier".

For every person of almost no political power you list, we can point to three Congressional Republicans promoting naked racist ideologies like the "great replacement". Further, I think you already know this. I wonder how you can live with yourself while being so nakedly hypocritical and two-faced.

Brutally honest thread.

TBH, I’m glad you don’t know this.

Richard Spencer and Jason Kessler aren’t outliers. The whole movement is socialist. The media does a good job of publishing images that omit pieces that give away the game. They’ll post images of some white loser parading around with a Confederate flag, holding up symbols most don’t know, or if there is a banner it is often in a shot in which the middle word is hard to make out. The text of the article or talking heads will tell everyone they are right-wingers. It is fake. Nearly always that confederate flag holder is a socialist and a Bernie Sander supporter.

Here is who they really are:

The NSM (National Socialist Movement) was the primary organization at Charlottesville. The racist shooter in Buffalo who is the subject of this thread, he called himself a socialist.

I know that not all people on the political left believe the way these guys do. I don't even think all Socialists are race obsessed, but there seems to be something about being race obsessed that seems to make socialism more appealing. Ibram X Kendi, who makes his entire living playing up issues of race, is socialist and on the political left. The BLM founders are socialist and on the political left. There is zero chance you could come up with 3 Republican congress members for every socialist race hustler I can point to because there are thousands of these socialist bigots.

 

[Gameface]

So the deflection now is to call racist gun owning mass shooters leftists now?

Lol

Cool.

IDGAF if the guy is a socialist or a republican, or a socialist Republican or anything else. None of this distracts from the fact that he almost used Tucker Carlson's words verbatim. That many (most) Trumpers support the exact ideas that he expressed in opposing "white replacement" and that this is where we're going if Trumpism continues.

I don't and have never really associated Trumpism with the Republican party other than that's the party that gave his ideology a home and now many establishment Republicans are fully in bed with the movement. Trumpism is NOT conservatism in my opinion. It is a form of white, fundamentalist (extremist) Christianity, that exists specifically as a reaction to women's rights, ethnic minority rights, LGBTQ+ rights. One of their main motivating factors is to reverse equality of non-Christian white people because they see loss of their unequal privilege as fundamentally unfair because they think this is "their" country and it is their natural place to gain the greatest advantages from what it has to offer and sharing is essentially a loss of their special rights.

So who ****ing cares if their collectivists or libertarians? They are my enemy regardless.

 

[Al-O-Meter]

...and that this is where we're going if Trumpism continues.

This Buffalo shooter is 18 so he didn't vote in the last election, but in 2020 these ethno-socialists almost across the board abandoned Trump. When Trump cut Bannon, they bounced. This is where we are going if Bernie and AOC continues. Social group collectivism is poison regardless of the ethnicity being advocated for. I'm glad to hear these scum are your enemies. I'll leave it at that.

TBH, I’m glad you don’t know this.

I'm aware of what you're posting.

Nearly always that confederate flag holder is a socialist and a Bernie Sander supporter.

They call themselves socialists, just as the Nazis did, and they support fascism, just as the Nazis did. Not everyone who describes themself as a socialist is a left-winger.

... but there seems to be something about being race obsessed that seems to make socialism more appealing.

As usual, you confuse those who proclaim race as a social construct and those who proclaim race as a biological reality, as if they are saying the same thing.

Ibram X Kendi, who makes his entire living playing up issues of race, is socialist and on the political left.

He also views race as a social construct, not a biological reality.

The BLM founders are socialist and on the political left.

Ditto.

... I can point to because there are thousands of these socialist bigots.

Recognizing the existence of a social construct, and it's deleterious effects, does not make one a bigot.

 

[addictionary]

Not everyone who describes themselves as a socialist is a left-winger.

I agree with you. On a side note, Nazism was a movement that called itself national socialism, a concept that in German language was Nationalsozialismus, hence the sound "natzio/e" .

Of course. But as we all know or at least should know, that was merely a front to attract new party members. Socialism wasn’t actually a priority of the party. Especially once Hitler consolidated his power as the party’s leader and Otto Strasser (one of the left leaning Nazi leaders) left the party (and country).

Then, in 1934, shortly after Hitler became chancellor, the actual socialist parties were outlawed and many of their leaders were arrested, beaten, and sent to concentration camps. In other words, the Nazis weren’t socialist. Neither were their policies from 1933-1945.

Folks, we really need to stop falling for stuff like this. David Duke “left” the KKK in 1980 to found the NAAWP to Mimic the NAACP. Folks on the far right constantly do this. From feigning support for Israel to imitating black civil Rights groups. They’re trying to troll the left and draw the “both sides” reporting from the media. The kkk can’t be bad if they can be equated with black civil rights movements. BLM can’t be good if they’re equated to the kkk, right?

Racists trolling the left goes back years ago. You find examples during slavery where slave owners accused abolitionists of hypocrisy, claiming that the lower class workers were treated worse in the cities than enslaved blacks weee on southern plantations. Again, a complete troll job. here’s an example from the 1960s of racists trolling their political opponents

It doesn’t mean that their beliefs actually change. Folks like the racists spoken here aren’t Democrats or leftists. They’re right wing white supremacists. It’s pretty obvious what Spencer is doing. And unlike trump, Biden immediately rejected his endorsement.

No, White Supremacist Richard Spencer Didn’t Seriously Endorse Joe Biden

It’s time to stop falling for transparent trolling by neo-Nazis. Here’s how to know when they’re misleading you.

And again, who’s been spouting white supremacist rhetoric? Well… here’s a picture of his reaction when The NY Times accused him of white supremacy:
