Coworker when I was young that grew up in a town I've never seen called Calumet had some very interesting words in his vocabulary I had to learn. But he introduced me to the Balfa Brothers when I was 18, so fair trade.

Doing that bullshit in NOLA is one hell of a choice. God help 'em if they venture outside of the city proper. I'm as country as it comes, but I'm Texan country. Those country folks I've met in southern Louisiana out-country my ass and I'm not too proud to admit it. ICE better stick to I-10.

Damn, you got it bad!! I just went to regular Evangelical church camps. Got the evils of rock n roll, but the Illuminati or Satanic cabals were just kinda insinuated without every being explicit!

Also.. God, I'm sorry. My raising was by half ass sane people that only dabbled. But I found the JBS and 90s militia stuff through family friends and acquaintances. It was red meat for my 12 year old ass that probably had oppositional defiance disorder.

All them "red blooded Patriots" that would fight government overreach to the death!
LOL. LMAO even.
We see you now.
But not gonna lie, it's still a bit surprising to see they fell in line with it LONG before everyone else. Hell, even the NYT couldn't outrun them.

The older guys involved would even claim Clinton was planning it and just didn't get it done in the 90s. So yeah, absolutely agree that most of them think like that. "Turn your back on those liberals and they're coming for your guns and putting you in a FEMA camp!"

The Boogs and their relationship to everything is FAR more complicated and would require a much longer thread to explain. But like, that shit fizzled by 2021 or so and has no current relevance. I'll go off about that in a thread some other time.

Excepting the Boogaloo Boi (movement? meme? Not sure how to describe that shit), EVERYONE else fell in love with Trump and everyone still involved 100% supports this shit he does. Even the QAnon folks screaming about pedophiles.

After I left, I started tracking that shit, which is how I discovered Antifascism and extremism research. Oathkeepers, Threepers, I was deep inside Boogaloo Boi groups. Got to know all the local Nazi and Klan adjacent groups real well in their chats and Facebook pages...

After leaving that world after realizing how stupid it was, I didn't ever think those beliefs would be validated but here we are. And everyone around me back then isn't fighting because they LOVE IT because they think it's directed only at *those* people.

If this is like most camps, the counselors were probably barely adults themselves and staying in cabins is what their "safety" training said was safest for them and the kids. Because the owners had a bullshit emergency plan. Or ANY real early warning system in place.

It's 35mm. After seeing current film processing and scanning prices, might be getting a basic setup for negative development and a digitizer! Holy shit, Batman!!! $18 a roll is a good price now?!?! Then enlarger can wait, but a negative developing tank is cheap!

I can't fix everything on modern vehicles, but there isn't much I can't help with. Firm believer in "we take care of us" so any bit of knowledge I have from fixing my own shit for the last 25 years or making vehicles in a factory for the last 15 years... you got it.

I can't be convinced that they aren't just idiots that know how to convince investors but have ZERO fucking clue about the actual industries they get 15 trillion billion dollars to play with. Fucking idiots that can't build rockets, cars, or computer programs that people want to buy.
