Since this thread is in the post-Malheur era (and since I skipped most of the old thread anyway), what was the general freep response and discussion like about the Bundy clan's awkward public insurr-edging session?

I don't think any of us know. It got changed to something good and by the end of the day got changed to that

I too was disappointed that Chicago Lady hadn't recently been newsworthy or involved in :freep: dramatics.

The new title reminded me of goons brigading her live internet chat event during her campaign, pretty sure I signed up as Chicano Lady to ramble about "guerilla republicanism" with Ken M style dialog and butchered early Soviet quotes.

That's some thread title material right there.

It's just so completely artless. Kneeling already involves the knee, and racist old white dudes are unanimously mad about black football players. Why clutter the pun in the first place, unless the author is admitting his friends and allies are idiots?

I'm sorry, did I click on a wrong link or something? Am I still on freerepublic.com?

I've honestly been pretty surprised never to hear of someone having a severe allergic response getting "lol beta cuck" heckling at some point in the last two years.

It's weird not to see immediate cruelty from these types.

I don't think he meant to be racist, he just is so that's how it sounded.

Let's be fair to Donald Trump, he's clearly a very high-IQ man and that intelligence differential complicates communications.

Supposing the human brain peaks by 50, and afterward it's more about momentum and damage control than real growth... at +70 years Trump's got a solid claim to having the mind of a man at least 1.5x his age, likely higher.

Pfft all this recorded history mumbo jumbo has some decent points at face value, but the fraction of shoeless Confederates suffering from elemental exposure with good modern weapons were really good shooters! Probably. And all those salt-of-the-earth belles and debutantes clapped at the promenade for Johnny Reb! And window candles, they didn't have window candles or hound dogs up north I bet ...

Edit: sorry, a gentleman would never bet.

They didn't have window candles or hound dogs up north, I reckon
