You very, very clearly didn't think she was doing a white supremacist gesture, you doubled down on it, and now you're trying to pretend you just thought it was irrelevant instead of nonexistent. it's ok to be made fun of, sometimes

Seriously. "Here's something I noticed" and then four hours of high pitched screeching about how we should be talking about something else instead. Like a few pages of talking about obvious Nazi signalling* is going to derail the whole Mueller investigation. He'll stumble in here blurry eyed and go "Good LORD WeedlordBonerHitler69 didn't say ANYTHING about Russia for three whole pages!! I must destroy everything uncovered so far straight away!!" Instead of going, "Huh" and waiting 12 hours for the topic to completely change. Also I gotta put up with willfully dense loving assholes denying reality to my face all day, the last thing I need is people gaslighting me here to save their e-cred. *MORE projection.

luxury handset posted:it's more like, who cares if she's signaling or not, like it's a sudden realization that the trump administration is full of nazis This would hold water if there weren't a lot of people, even in this very thread, that agree she's a racist pos but were trying to claim others were being hysterical for even pointing out the hand gesture was likely intentional. It may seem trivial, and it would be nice if it was, but being able to do things like this in broad daylight and having people defend it and/or saying it doesn't matter is what they want so they can use it to terrorize their victims. They're not doing it "for the lulz" they're doing it to scare others, show that they're in position of power and control, then try and get others to laugh it off when it's pointed out. People should continue to point it out until they don't have to point it out anymore.

luxury handset posted:find the part where i said she wasn't a nazi? or anyone itt? What this woman did was no casual display of racism. She did the white supremacy hand gesture at a very public event, not when she thought no one was looking, but when she knew everyone was. The brazenness of the behavior alone should be breathtaking for anyone who doesn’t have a broken brain, but beyond that, it starkly demonstrates the comfort with which these white supremacists have been operating. Symbols carry tremendous meaning and power. They invoke feelings, communicate values, recite past events. So when someone displays the white supremacy symbol on national television, where it is spread to the masses and its effects are amplified, it is a big loving deal.

On the one hand that's definitely not how people are normally throwing up gang signs (and that wp specifically comes from white prison groups). That said, I grew up in an area full of neo-nazis and a not insignificant amount of them are mixed race or of seemingly incompatible religious backgrounds. Neo nazi poo poo is generally like any other gang where they'll basically take anyone who comes along and wants to get on board. There's a bunch of weird mental gymnastics that goes on (Iranians are original aryans, so they're ok or like 'this pacific islander guy feels the same way about mexicans, so he's okay or even 'this israeli hates arabs, so we got that in common.' Like those groups have lovely opinions of pretty much every foreign culture and people, they just find the single common ground and go from there. Back to the original point: it's entirely possible but imo it doesn't look like it.

I'm definitely going with Popehat's take on this in that either it's not a white supremacy symbol or that she was deliberately trolling. Mainstream Republicans don't engage in overt white power rhetoric.

Bob Woodward has written books about every president since Nixon. I've read a few and they are pretty honest takes, and theres plenty of unflattering entries (especially in the books about George W) but can anyone tell me if any of the previous presidents have accused Woodward of lying or fabricating accounts in books he's written about them? Did Nixon?

You don't get to call the other side crazed conspiracy theorist and then complain when they push back super loving hard. We are not talking about why trump went back into the white house instead of golfing. We have clear footage of her doing it and I would argue that the only reason the world noticed its because it was extremely obvious.

When the guy who helped bring down Nixon writes an in depth book about a president, people listen.

This discussion right here is why America is what it is Lazy white people not even willing to admit that white supremacy is a real and overt problem because boohoo it challenges our views. It's scary to admit it's real. Instead it must be less serious than it is and everyone else is making too much of a big deal, right?? like this guy: luxury handset posted:it's ok to be made fun of, sometimes gently caress off you gormless dick StrangersInTheNight fucked around with this message at 10:08 on Sep 5, 2018 |

When the guy who helped bring down Nixon writes an in depth book about a president, people listen. I don't remember anyone really caring when he wrote multiple books about Bush, Clinton, Bush II, or Obama. Granted, none of them had strong parallels with Nixon, and Watergate is a tough debut act to follow. But Woodward's dozen plus books since All the President's Men don't make me too hopeful about his Trump book.

StrangersInTheNight posted:This discussion right here is why America is what it is Racism in the Republican party is the opposite of overt. The whole point of dog whistling is to capture the small minority of actually racist voters while maintaining plausible deniability to the rest, because they will burn you if you're overt about it. Actual overt racists in the R mainstream (Arpaio, Moore) are very rare and get massive pushback from their own party when they do surface. Claiming the R mainstream has graduated to throwing white power symbols on national TV is an extraordinary claim which requires extraordinary evidence.
