I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

I don't think you should stop calling it a lynch mob, you do you, but I do find it interesting that we wouldn't consider it appropriate to say they committed an extrajudicial killing because nobody killed anybody, but it is comfortable for more people to say it's a lynch mob. Since a mob is, by definition unruly, a mob certainly doesn't assemble by a purpose.

Lynch mob as a phrase has a meaning independent of it's origin. As a child, I had learned the phrase before I knew what lynching was. To me, it carried its own independent linguistic meaning that was sufficient to communicate with, if potentially ambiguous. All words have different interpretations to different interpreters. I suspect the distinction arises here--the word had meaning that I ascribed to it and then corrected once I had greater context later. It doesn't feel like a linguistic violation because of that. I think if the first time you heard of a lynch mob, it was in context of a lynching, and you understood that context, any use outside of that would feel less appropriate.

Is this a problem? Will joat mon solve it? Seems unlikely. Language. Language changes.

Pffft lynch mobs these days. Back in the good ol days If we had a wrong address we’d just have a two-fer-one.

These loving disgusting people need to be smashed hard by the rule of law so they stop these “I’m not touching you” actions. The minute they think they will get away with it their bravery will spark up and a strong black mama won’t be enough to push them back.

:ssh: They are able to act as they do because the carceral state has, at very least, tacit support for their political goals. :ssh:

I think part of what defines a lynching that the mob is acting "under color of law" (historically often sheriffs, although that's at least partly because they ran the jails the victims were often taken from) or at least with significant involvement of local social/political elites. A lynching is very much an expression of social disapproval, not just racist vigilante violence.

I'd love to see the data and assumptions used to craft this policy, but I don't think there's a requirement for that to exist prior to drafting a resolution, so maybe aren't any. If there is a report by staffers or a think tank, it may be public, but I don't really know how to find that.

What thread did they do a gear breakdown in?

And yeah, there’s a weird anti-Semitic strain in a lot of Black nationalist groups these days like NBPP and more egregiously in the Black Hebrew Israelite movement. The latter were present at last year’s standoff between the stupid CHUD teenager and the native Vietnam vet and reportedly instigated the whole thing.

Personally I’m glad there’s a group committed to community self-defense in that area but man they need to ditch that Farrakhan poo poo like yesterday.

Downside is I'm like 100% sure there's probably a half dozen threads on arfcom right now with barely even coded racist language about this dude, but then that's probably the point. It would actually be amazing if this was an intentional trap for racist gun nerds.

I don't know what the post-80s layout of Black Panther groups looks like, or if there's a Huey P. Newton style Black Panther Party out there, but hopefully there is and they gain traction. The NBPP apparently ignored Dr. Newton's memo about renouncing black nationalism (in 1968) and tilted full-on into antisemitism. :(

I'm glad there are folks standing up against white power operator cosplay though.
