Hot take: If neonazis are open carrying at their rallies, then anti-fa needs to start carrying at theirs and be ready to make good on it or this poo poo's going to keep happening over and over and over and no one's going to do anything about it.

loving hell America. If you're going to die like this at least do it on your feet, gritting your teeth into the wind, safe in the knowledge that you died trying to kill nazism.

gently caress

I'm going to provide a bit of a counter-narrative.

A lot of Cheddar Cheesebrain's actions have provoked equal, if not greater, counter-reactions. When he talked about "American Carnage", the Women's March came in the day after with incredible turnout. When the muslim/immigration ban happened, people (and lawyers) flooded the airports. When they came for healthcare, floods of people came to town halls to yell at their Congresspeople over MONTHS to lead to a stop to it. When he stated the transgender ban using twitter, the defense department and even Congressional Republicans (amazingly) told him to go gently caress himself. They're even getting cities across the country to tell DOJ to go gently caress themselves too about a sanctuary city/immigration crackdown. gently caress, there isn't even a wall yet.

Yesterday, a bunch of Tiki Torch Nazis went to the University of Virginia, when the school wasn't even in session, and a bunch of students showed up to go tell to Nazis to gently caress themselves. https://twitter.com/SophiaArmen/status/896219890108948482

Today, a whole bunch of Nazis, white nationalists, and militiamen showed up in Charlottesville with a fuckton of guns, fake armor, bullshit camouflage and a bunch of hateflags. Even more protestors showed up and told these heavily-armed men to politely go gently caress themselves too.

All that's happened is that the same racist motherfuckers are getting more noisy and dropping their masks and hoods. The problem now is that there are cell phones everywhere, the assholes can be identified and fired from their jobs for being Nazis, and counter-protestors are STILL showing up with even more people (granted, antifa takes it a bit too far, but whatever).

So look beyond the Cheesebrain and some very positive things are happening.

I was talking to a friend of mine about those kids -- specifically the ones who were surrounded by the torch wielding Nazis. And we agree that those kids are ridiculously brave and are (hopefully) the future leaders of this country.

My first thought was that it's a shame this doesn't show who those students are so that they can be recognized for their bravery in the face of that much miserable hate, but then I realized it's probably for the best that their identities are protected as much as possible, given how terrible the online parts of these groups are.

I'm skeptical that something the size of a DJI4 would be enough to take down a chopper. Those things are 3 pounds and a good bit of its plastic. Also there's a whole lot of random internet rumors swirling around, I'm going to wait until there's something official out there.

By the way, in case you thought this was over with there's another Alt-Right rally by the same folks scheduled for Boston:

Also today I parked my bike and looked at the grave of Nazis who murdered German soldiers who, in turn, chose to share info with the Americans about their Nazi brethren. The German men who executed the informers were executed by American forces. I don't favor the death penalty, but as long as it exists, I'll take the small wins.

He's the guy from the Berkeley protests earlier this year who attacked a bunch of anti-nazi protesters with a stick. He also had a bunch of other weapons on him at the time. 4chan and reddit and the bigger idiots in TFR thought he was the best thing ever because he committed assault with a deadly weapon on protesters.

Trump gave them a leader on a national stage that people couldn't ignore anymore. Even if he isn't an outright white supremacist, he's what they needed to feel confident enough to start acting out more.
