Bullfrog posted:why does the uk have so many terfs in mainstream leftist politics compared to the US Part of it is probably that the uk has a robust and long-lived left as compared to the us, where it’s just very dedicated silent generation survivors and people under 40 starting to develop something real after 50 years of white boomer babylon.

Also don't understimate the power of the individuals involved - Germaine Greer basically defined feminism (or at the very least was it's most prominent figure in the media) in the UK from the 1960s to the 1980s, almost by accident. That she has gone TERF, very loudly, holds an awful lot of sway with even non-radical feminists.

I think it's hilarious all his Neo-Nazi buddies haven't caught on to him being a fed. Probably because they're all feds as well. I'd say the Patriot Prayer dick and Gavin McDingus are like, the only two non-feds hilariously.

cantwell and kessler are probably not feds, although hilariously I think it’s better than even odds that Kessler was offered a deal and turned it down due to ideology

420 Gank Mid posted:Minutemen LARPers who want to violently overthrow the constitutional government and replace it with the articles of confederation or some other dumb poo poo. And like most pop factoids, it's completely wrong. The 3% figure comes from an incorrect assessment of Continental Army pension rolls at the end of the war, which only included those soldiers who qualified and also drew a pension (thus discounting those regulars who served but didn't draw a pension for whatever reason), left out the navy and marine corps entirely as well as a large number of state militias who weren't officially part of the Continental Army for various reasons, and also just wasn't an accurate count in the first place. "Only 3% of the population fought for Are Freedom" total is bullshit and should be rejected out of hand by anyone who knows anything at all about the War for Independence.

freckle posted:i thought it came out that cantwell was a snitch He just bragged on a podcast about how all the cops and guards at the jail were so friendly and wanted to know all about him and all his friends, and how he was so important that they wrote down everything he said and had hamburgers and milkshakes with him so he would keep telling stories about all his interesting friends. He got mad and confused when the other nazis called him a snitch, as he believed he was turning friendly law enforcement men to his side.

It's important to keep in mind that before Cantwell became a Nazi he was a member of a libertarian group who harassed meter maids.

I wonder what the % would be if you included a couple hundred thousand French soldiers.

Selling out your friends for a milkshake might be the saddest snitch story I've heard
