How is it not a crime to help those secessionist ranchers or to threaten to murder va employees?

Because nothing done in the service of white supremacy is illegal in America

the relationship on 4chan between queerness and child loving is that they think that if they steal the techniques the perfidious jew used to make degenerate homosexuality acceptable, they can use it like a key and unlock the puzzle, causing liberal society to allow them to gently caress kids.

The Covington kid would have already been on the talk show circuit if he was gonna be milking that grift from here on out. I'm guessing they learned from the fired4truth guy and are now screening to make sure these people aren't utter dogshit before putting them on camera, and this kid can't make people not want to punch him in the face.

Fox News is infamous for their hosts being used to getting treated like royalty, especially by friendly guests . It's possible sandmann showed an improper amount of deference to Tucker Carlson and got sent home.

A number of people in the tech community still stan Damore pretty hard, especially on sites like Hacker News, where you can be sure he'll be brought up as some kind of martyr, in any vaguely related discussion.

Given how many users on that site are SV lanyards, I guess it's not too surprising.

Yeah part of that has to do with him being deplatformed by the right (like sandmann) very quickly. The idea or Sandmann and Damore are way, way, way more appealing than the reality of them obviously being moron charisma holes. They become content for the grifters, but can't make the jump to grifters themselves.

Let’s see that flap copy:


It’s all bullshit of course, but the bold part seems like a swap of consequent and antecedent, even under his bootlicker logic. How can privilege be the cause of something that functions as the source of privilege?

It's real easy if the only research you do is sitting naked on your back porch, doing whippets while you slowly torture and kill a neighborhood cat.

Tiny helmet guy bringing his Barrett safe queen to the close quarters protest AND had a custom come and take it flag made for it is some kind of pinnacle of right wing larpy bullshit.

The Boogaloo is one of the more effective recruitment efforts because it presents light hearted face and has a real complaint/observation in the hook: The social contract has all but evaporated and the government is derelict in caring for the welfare of it's people, and is moments from collapse. The major targets are law enforcement: DEA/ATF/FBI/BLM. It's good targeting for disaffected gun/outdoor enthusiasts below a certain age, and it doesn't really start laying on the RaHoWa stuff until you're already *in* it. It's target demo could just as easily be brought to leftism via JBGC or SRA.

imo referring to it as the "boogaloo movement" sort of misses the point, because it's not really a coherent movement. It's like trying to find The Leader Of Antifa. It's a set of aesthetic trappings around a loose association of generally right wing ideologies, key among them preppers and insurrectionists.

you're better off looking at it as an ideological waystation and recruitment path for young people. For them, it becomes the "shithead libertarian" phase 80% of this forum's members went through at some point between 2006 and 2012 despite currently being some flavor of marxist. In libertarianism, you spend an amount of time trying and failing to reconcile the fundamentally opposed concepts of "Personal Liberty" and "Private Property", and then hit some kind of breaking point where you decide which one you like more and become a fascist or a leftist. Boog poo poo is similar. The ideological commitments of the big influencers are psychotic, but the pitch to the rank and file is based on an observably true "poo poo's All hosed" appeal, where you spend some time trying to reconcile "the lawless undesirables must be stopped" and "the cops want nothing more than to kill you and we've gotta kill them first", and then hit the breaking point and decide to be a bootlicker or a swamp maoist.

The "purpose" of the boog movement, in effect, becomes creating an environment where they can recognize the problems with society, introducing these contradictory ideas, and then giving them as many chances as possible to come to the conclusion of RaHoWa and as few as possible to read the little red book.
