Speaking of Asian neo-Nazis. This article is a year old but I missed it.

quote:



Four men have been indicted in connection with an aggravated assault on Dec. 2 in Tyler.

Carlos Jose Hernandez, of Tyler, Heon Jon Yoo, of Tyler, Jesse Long, of Gaylord, Michigan, and Matthew Lack, of Brownsboro were indicted on charges of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.

According to Tyler Police spokesman Don Martin, the four armed men entered a property in the 3900 block of McDonald Road in Tyler. Once on the property, the men became involved in an altercation with the homeowner. Weapons were drawn during the incident, then the suspects fled in a vehicle but were stopped a short distance from where the incident occurred.

At the time of the arrest police found inside the vehicle a tactical vest, three magazines, a handgun, two rifles, a machete, and a shotgun.

All four men have a bond set at $60,000.

This guy:



Is this guy: "Hank Yoo."







He also apparently yelled at his mom to speak English or get out his country when she spoke Korean to him. (Apparently he grew up in South Korea.) Yikes.

Supposedly posted on pol a lot. Since one guy was from Michigan, makes me wonder whether these guys were part of some pol gang. The Michigan guy has a photo of himself in front of a Confederate flag, but he also cosplayed as a Union soldier from the Civil War and a Soviet soldier from World War II.

Don't know if any of them got convicted or served any time.

Most of that stuff is old. He has a current Facebook account though where he's posing with weapons and has what looks like a gun safe in January 2018.

Jesus Christ.

He's also into Lady Gaga, Kesha, Britney and Victoria Justice, the movie "Girly Things" and The Daily Show, while also being part of the group "Fascist goy for tolerance and understanding" and "Constitutional Fascist" so he's all kinds of wrapped up into knots.

The human animal is a beautiful and terrible creature, capable of limitless compassion and unfathomable cruelty.

As far as sheer brazen audacity goes attempting to redefine whiteness to include yourself because the only thing holding you back from being a Nazi is that you're part of a group Nazis don't consider to be part of them is pretty impressive.

Anecdotally, I know a bunch of Indian men in the alt-right.
Current government of India right now is a Hindu Nationalist party. When it comes to what they say about Muslims, they make Trump look like Trudeau. Combine that with many being raised by conservative, strict parents and a large number of 20 something Indian men being hopeless virgins, it makes sense that quite a few would latch onto the alt-right.

like it starts with dating—hating asian women who date non-asians, maybe fantasizing about loving a pretty white girl—and before you know it they're full fledged nationalistic conservatives attacking affirmative action and sucking at the teat of white supremacy

The root of the alt-right is a struggle with claiming or asserting masculinity. It's not surprising that Asians, stereotyped as unmasculine, would be drawn to it. I mean their favored insults are cuck and soyboy

one of the dirty secrets of media coverage of nazis is that a lot of times, the media pays nazi groups to let them cover them. like major networks literally paying to put on a cross burning for the cameras. vice, to my knowledge, doesn't do that.

This is an obscure one, but the neo-Nazi group Patriot Front targeted this student in Texas for a campus newspaper column he wrote, harassing him at his job, and putting up flyers around campus with his face on it and the words "he wants you dead." Cops ended up kicking five of the Nazis off campus when they tried it.

The student body president also called on the paper to fire him, which it did.

I thought that whole thing was pretty depressing, until the student president got found out for having posted racist poo poo on one of his social media accounts. Then the ex-columnist student did this:

https://twitter.com/JinATX/status/960680834608041984

The fact that the student government (and the administration, more importantly) was more concerned about this student newspaper column rather than repeated harassment by a neo-Nazi group is blowing up in their faces. Texas State is probably a more diverse campus than average in the state, and has a sizable black and Hispanic student body.

These middle ground motherfuckers calling for whatever on both sides always turn out to be secret assholes. Undercover assholes.

As a religious person, watching the skeptic community slowly turn into fascists has been somewhat pleasurable. Because alot of the same assholes who are doing it were the ones claiming that it was religion that caused fascism and racism.

A lot of Shermer's writing from the 90s were instrumental in creating the framework for my own radicalization on the left, and it's been weird to watch him fall into this dipshit trap over the past decade and a half

I have a private theory where Stephen Jay Gould's death (and the subsequent takeover of every part of the atheist/skeptic community by dick dorkins, chris hitchens, and acolytes) is largely responsible for the moral rudderlessness of the atheist community at large.

That's because the new atheism movement was often about the feeling of being more intelligent and enlightened than the opposition instead of simple pushback. Virulent Rationalism™ divorced from empathetic humanism is just a way for dividing the world into two categories: the smart people and the dumb people. And from that endpoint, it's barely another step for them to start talking about how only they should dictate what the rest of society must do.
