OMG JC a Bomb! posted:Who can forget that momentous day in August, 1962 when Martin Luther King Jr. stood before scores of Americans united for righteousness and dignity and shook dat rear end in the greatest display of twerking the world had ever seen. He had a dream--that people of color and genderfluidity could one day twerk together in solidarity for all time.

A Pale Horse posted:They're malignant narcissists, they actually buy their own hype and think they're wicked important activists for social justice. This is a more accurate criticism than it might seem at first. A huge problem with the contemporary left is the gigantic explosion in social media and decades of overemphasis on individualism. Everyone wants to be a hero.

Blm tends to crash events that mostly consist of people who already agree with the general thrust of the movement even if they dislike the narcissistic face. Thats why you saw them doing poo poo like crashing sanders rallies, cause he was the only politician that would actually let them talk. If they pull one of their stunts with crowds that don't like them they just get thrown out and are well aware of this, so instead they choose poo poo like pride parades even though that mostly just shoots their own public image in the foot.

Working with Canadians anecdote: A probable autist I knew that eavesdropped on other people's conversations and whenever a thing was described in terms of miles, pounds, or degrees Fahrenheit, he would chime in, calculator at the ready, with the metric or centigrade equivalent. Did not have a cell phone for whatever neurotic reason and threw tantrums that the few pay phones left in Los Angeles didn't accept toonies. Kept bringing up the CN Tower's height at weird times. Average Canadian citizen

A huge problem with the contemporary left is the gigantic explosion in social media and decades of overemphasis on individualism. pretty much. the problem is the push "everyone can be a hero" but at the same time "gently caress you for trying to be a hero, its problamtic and toxic." the left is broke.

Its because they believe (and probably rightly so) that if they did this poo poo to the right in the open, they would get the gently caress kicked out of them. they want to be emotional victims/martyrs. not real ones. same with the alt right. the Issue is the alt right knows how to market its horribleness enough. the alt left doesnt. the alt left come of like overly sheltered evanglicals but with out the faith and more outwardly dickish and left leaning.

Y-Hat posted:medgar evers and the three civil rights workers that were lynched in Mississippi would certainly be proud of these brave heroes' sacrifice to twerk on stage at a non-hostile event thats whats sad. I watched streams from the justice for jamar(its the one the /pol/tards should up at, and then poo poo happend and people got hurt) protests. it was the same things over and over again. some chanting, some dude would lead insperational prayer that sounded like the end of a movie, lovely music, twerking. some white kid would throw poo poo at a cop, and people would prostrait themselves neare police cars. then some old hippies would talk, then some white hipsters. then some black people. and nothing would happen.

Story my girl tells of her time in Canada that should make all Americans worry. She was in an airport bar in Vancouver on 9/11, and realized it was time to get out of the country because of the fact that not only were people cheering the towers coming down, those who weren't were agreeing that the US was getting what we deserve, and it would be a good time for the Canadian armed forces to finally invade.

Flocons de Jambon posted:Toronto Pride started as protest movement just like BLM, except the institutional racism that BLM opposes is, in my opinion, more serious than what homosexuals faced. BLM can milk them of all their Pizza Pizza money for all I care. I agree gently caress gay people, they have it so good and always have and then they have the temerity to have a party about it instead of giving the money to real victims like every single black person ever.

Fashionable Jorts posted:Not wanting cops to have a float at pride parades is pretty legit. Seven years ago police raided a gay bar in the next town over from me, gave one patron a brain injury, and alleged the patrons came onto them (as the cops were beating people). There were protests but afterwards: quote:The city hastily created a diversity task force and enacted diversity training for city staff. The Police Department changed its policy on handling bar checks and created an LGBT liaison, which promoted communication between police and the gay community. http://www.dallasvoice.com/tarrant-pride-larger-police-presence-10127910.html BrutalistMcDonalds fucked around with this message at 23:02 on Jul 4, 2016 |

it makes sense to just sign whatever document that the crazy person wanted so you could continue your parade, and then next year just make sure that there's extra cops on hand to bust heads in the event of an interruption
