the whole conversation about the "OK" sign makes me feel weird because I don't think I've seen someone do it in person to signal "things are okay" instead of giving a thumbs up or a friendly nod or whatever in my entire life


Deaf people use it all the time to mean exactly what it means. OK.

I'm a diver and we use it underwater all the time too.

This. Also, I'm pretty sure your average joe has no idea that internet people are even having this discussion.

An Identity Evropa poster in New York features Andrew Cuomo for some reason.

But tbh it kinda (inadvertently) looks like a pro-Cuomo poster. Cuomo will crush his enemies and finally ban free speech (thank God). When I think of Nazi posters targeting The Enemy, it's of an Aryan finger pointing out a Jewish guy who's like "drat! You caught me!" Or pulling back the curtain and so on.

So this is new. This group called "The Base" is worth monitoring and it looks like a post-Atomwaffen thing.

What is it? A decentralized network of neo-Nazi survivalist / gun / terror clubs. The accounts promoting it seem to merge eco-fascism (see Pentti Linkola), Atomwaffen turbo-edgyness and enthusiasm for Ukrainian neo-Nazi groups like the Azov Battalion.



Interesting questions they ask when you apply for membership:



Major yikes:





This tweet likely arose from a conversation where one member asked: "Should we be subtle about this?" and his kameraden scratched his chin for a moment and then replied, "Nah."



Apparently the tool they're using to talk to each other:

well that’s the logical evolution, if derivative. there’s already a group called “the base” designed to do decentralized terrorism, it’s better known by its Arabic name - al qaeda lol

Key distinction here is that the feds are probably trying to grow a nazi terror cell, as they've done in the past, rather than catch nazis

The OK sign is still a standard thing in the live audio world, because a thumbs-up can be misinterpreted as "turn it up" instead of "this is a good level."

However at my company in the last year we've started using thumbs up solely as "this is a good level" and pointing up/down with the index finger for "turn it up."

I still can't get why Laura Loomer can't find herself a white supremacist to gently caress. Is it:

1. Her personality is so lovely even edgelord white supremacists are like "I'm not that desperate"?
2. Her standards are too high?
3. It's all a ruse and she's actually fine?
4. Her one true love is her Twitter checkmark and nothing else compares?

She's a complete basket case and it probably radiates off of her in waves the way that Eliot Rogers' brutal misogyny frightened away anyone who spent even five minutes with him.

clever as it was, i guess the "not a hate crime because the atomwaffen guy is a closet gay" defense wasn't working:

quote:

[Attorney] Muñoz did not present any witnesses during the hearing, but contended that Woodward was sexually confused, socially awkward, and had autism. He also argued, U.S. News & World Report reported, there was not enough evidence to support the hate crime charge, noting that much of the hateful content on Woodward's phone was contained in messages to himself.

"I think in a hate crime instance you have to have an outward manifestation of your loathing to the world," Muñoz said after the hearing.
