It's barely two years since one of these Nazis massacred nine people in a church because their skin was too dark for him, In the week after his massacre five churches were burnt down in five southern states, and in the month following an arsonist burned six more churches in St. Louis alone for the same reason.

Right now there are hundreds of these armed racial supremacists chanting Nazi slogans around a neo-Confederate monument; last night this insane mob made a show of brandishing torches while making their chants for white supremacy. They are insane monsters and we should not look the other way when they intimidate and threaten.

I'm not saying look the other way at all.

The only good nazi is a dead one, I'm just venting because all the liberal nonprofit cronies I know irl are hyperventilating about the need to create more book clubs and discussion groups with white people instead of arming themselves and stomping the filth.

Yet where is that woman now? Tell me, in what heave does she reside? None of them. Because no God bothered to listen or care. If that is what you think it means to be a God, then you and all your teachings are welcome to do as that poor women did. And vanish from these realms forever.
The gathering is unlawful, but they're marching away now. A few more fights are breaking out. Saw a skin head got beat but so did some black people. They're doing a pseudo-march, but I also saw a cop taser two white nationalists and arrest one.

It's a poo poo show.

Real talk: people got heated with me probating racists/sexists/homophoboes/transphobes/islamaphobes on sight (also "sassy gifs in the lepers colony, oh no!) so I have tried to use less of a heavy hand. I have chilled out a lot recently, but I'm still for removal of alt-right posters.

That said, I would probate him but I am no longer a mod of D&D. We need a new D&D mod and I have been trying to talk to people about getting one. I don't mind doing it, but people think I'll be all "roar exterminate the whites!!!" and mods don't wanna deal with that backlash in qqcs probably. I don't blame them honestly.

Make me a mod and give me the power to only probate/ban Nazis.

Or maybe just stop listening to people who whine about defending Nazis and ban violent rhetoric like Nazi apologia.

Or whatever, banning Nazis is a public good.

Well poo poo, he deleted the tweet; and it wasn't him - he periscoped a few minutes ago being "in a safe vehicle", looks like either he was teargassed or was crying.

Pictured was: Spencer some nazi gently caress with the same hairdo on the ground with a cop's knee on his spine being handcuffed.

This does not make sense when, again, aggregate indicia also indicate improvements. The belief that things are worse is false. It remains false.
