For the new users, please understand that there are bots all over this website too but instead of being Nazi bots they’re weird liberals that post incoherently annoying replies all day. Also like 30% of them aren’t bots at all but Gen X posters. You can’t tell the difference

I could excuse the racists, the Nazis, that guy who posted child porn with his own watermark, a nonfunctional UI, unreadable comment sections, generally bad content, and open doxxing, but I draw the line at open doxxing that might affect me

The subtext of this comment is that the Mayor of Boston is Asian-American, whereas the Mayor of Chicago (like almost everyone else that Trump refers to as “a low IQ person”) is Black.

Trump: "Boston had a bad mayor who at least is a reasonable IQ person. Most of them are low IQ. I mean, what's going on in Chicago ... "

Love when a guy with a name like “Angelo Elia” thinks the white supremacists don’t have a plan for him and his family.

Holy shit. This is Angelo Elia, a legislative correspondent for Congressman Dave Taylor.

According to @rooster.info, during a Zoom meeting today, he had an American nazi flag displayed in the background.

like Ron Paul has been writing openly racist newsletters since the 70s. paleoconservatives have always been this way.

I can't emphasize enough that no matter what wiki tells you, the great replacement theory stuff did not start in 2015/6, the 'national identity' stuff pushed by Republicans for 30 years prior was literally just that, it's just that POC pops hadn't increased enough to force them to make it specific.
