There's a definite lack of command and control in that situation. Was that young lady a Jason Borne style super agent? Or is the Portland police department staffed by the keystone cops?

Edit: why didn't they shoot at her?

Yeah well I didn't earn it. I was a loving O3 at 24. Time in service baby. My only contribution to the army besides donating to the Vaporize Browns Kickstarter Stretch Goal was not loving with enlisted when I could avoid it. They didn't argue when I dropped my refrad.

I only made it to E-5 because 35N points were at the bare minimum and major command-level company boards promote you for showing up. :hfive:

fister points were at like 150 when i was in. when i was at WLC i found out just what type of NCO you get when you have points at 150.

infantry points were like 580, which if you have a deployment and WLC you could pretty much sleepwalk your way to.

Had a guy at WLC fail out on drill and ceremony. I wish I was kidding.

Only the goddamn army would actually fail someone for D&C poo poo. I sucked at that stuff and hosed it up hard at our version of WLC- ours is called ALS. Did not once ever enter anyone's mind that I wasn't ready for E-5 just because I suck dick at drill and ceremony.

That is so goddamn Army. And I believe that story.

Dude was outed because he made a gif. Someone got mad, looked into it, and got lucky. If he'd been an animal porn fetishist instead, would he still have been outed? Maybe.

This country would be a lot better off if people did unpopular poo poo in the open without being surrounded by anonymous pitchfork-wielding hypocrites; it's the one glimmer of hope in the rise of Dear Pee'er: dude grabbed a pussy and says outlandish things but history will still judge him on his performance as leader of the free world.

If you want to out everyone who is racist because they're racist, go for it. But when gram-grams and pop-pops are catching 2a.m. death threats on their rotary dial because they once wore black-face to a halloween party in 1982, and one of them trips and shatters their everything while shuffling out to the kitchen hoping you're calling for bail one last time before they die, I hope your personal bias doesn't prevent you from wearing that totally dope Antifa Tee to the wake.

Dude made a gif and a corporation got mad about it.

Except the only one who outed him (potentially) are antifa idiots on the grey net. CNN found him out, found his nazi post history, and he deleted it and apologized. CNN was potentially considering mentioning his name attached to the gif that trump tweeted but because he apologized they withheld his name.

And it was only the fact that he had posted a bunch of actual hateful poo poo that got him "blackmailed", not the Trump gifs. If his entire post history was harmless/stupid memes along the lines of the WWE gif, the story would simply be "We spoke with so and so, the gif editor who got retweeted by the president. Did you know he likes Trump?" and the guy would pick up a bunch of followers or whatever and that would be the end of that. Instead it turns out he posts literal lists of Jews, then cries about it in an apology when he realizes his real name might be associated with that. CNN showed a lot more restraint than they had to for some shithead racist.

On the flipside, if you make a bunch of posts unironically supporting Stalin or something you should be prepared for some awkward conversations if someone makes the connection to your online id. The internet isn't separate from the rest of the world just because it provides tools for anonymity.

All of this is assuming they were able to tie the poster to the person using public information though. If it turns out CNN used Time Warner customer data or something, gently caress them.

Everybody is somebody's HanAssholeSolo.

If the mob actually wanted to out racists, they'd go troll the comment section of any trending Facebook story and scoop them up by the handful.

SIGNAL BOOST THIS! MARY SIMONTON POSTED A PICTURE OF SOMEONE'S FRUGAL TIO TAKING A DRAG FROM A ROLL-YOUR-OWN AT HER NEIGHBORS' QUINCEAÑERA AND CAPTIONED IT "BAKED BEAN"!

But nobody gives a poo poo about racist ol' Mary because it lacks the feel-good rush of hypocrisy that comes with taking away someone's anonymity. AKA being a dick.

Even if everything you espouse online represents your real-life convictions, you'd still feel like maybe you got a raw deal if your hero re-tweeted your poo poo and suddenly everyone who disagrees with you is having a nice long stroke awaiting your humiliation.

Again, I yearn for the day we can all shed these silly pseudonyms and exchange ideas as men once did.

.. And then strip to the waist, slather our bloated inverted chair-shaped forms in baby-oil, and fight for our ideals until death/ejaculation.

It will be a golden age.
