So as most people know a nutcase opened fire in a pizza place in DC this weekend because he was "self investigating" a conspiracy theory to do with the Clinton campaign. http://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2016/12/5/13842258/pizzagate-comet-ping-pong-fake-news

the son of trumps pick for National Security Advisor had some comments https://twitter.com/KFILE/status/805615355888603140/photo/1?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw

Why isn't this called the White Nationalist News thread? Whenever somebody refers to these fuckwads as the 'Alt-Right' you're capitulating to the terms and names they've set for themselves.

Agreed. "Alt-right" is almost validating their existence.

Almost posted this in the baseball thread but this probably works better here.

http://deadspin.com/phillies-pistachio-girl-fired-for-being-a-white-natio-1789696359

Emily Youcis, better known as “Pistachio Girl” at Philadelphia Phillies games, has been fired from her vendor job by Aramark, because she couldn’t stop supporting white nationalism online.

Pistachio Girl was known for her distinct singing as she hawked concessions, even after the park stopped selling pistachios:

Youcis appeared in a video of a Nov. 19 anti-fascism protest of white supremacist Richard Spencer’s National Policy Institute in Washington, D.C. She walked around with a microphone and asked if anyone wanted to have a discussion; a brief fight broke out near her but nothing else really happened. That probably had to do with her termination. It probably also had to do with how she tweets about the white race being threatened:

Emily Youcis @realEmilyYoucis
I'm defending White America- the majority of baseball fans. If the Phillies shun me 4 standing up 4 White America they r shunning their fans

Emily Youcis @realEmilyYoucis
.@JohnRiversX4 @MLB Majority of baseball fans are White Americans. The same 1s rapidly becoming a minority. Why can't I stand up for them?

Emily Youcis @realEmilyYoucis
Baseball, like all once proud American Institutions, has been thoroughly cucked as well.

Emily Youcis @realEmilyYoucis
Exactly, what's more important, selling nuts for a couple more years or saving the White Race from extinction?

WHITE PHOWER

Oh yeah I'm stealing that cucked tweet for a baseball thread title next year.

I get to live 5 mins away from the office of Toronto's biggest (and only) white nationalism print media. Their HQ was recently boarded up with "Die Nazi Scum" and the Anarchy symbol spray painted across it.

It was just her least florid way of saying the same things she's been saying about 20 years.

People need to relax in the Pepe thing. It's a dumb meme but calling it a hate symbol becuase some faction of idiots are trying to co-opt it is just stupid.

Pretty sure even the guy who created it gave up and admitted it's a hate symbol ages ago.

You gonna source that? ;)

I have the one post he wrote for Time where he admits that it's being used for hate but that he wants to reclaim it (he holds a copyright apparently), just from this past October: http://time.com/4530128/pepe-the-frog-creator-hate-symbol/

I get what they're saying here, but you could say the same thing if "alt-right" idiots started stealing the images of and drawing Bart Simpson or Charlie Brown with a Hitler moustache. Sure, they're not of the same magnitude, and their respective owners have the resources to lawyer-up should anyone misuse their IP, but you get my point (I hope). I don't think that established characters that have previously had nothing to do with hate should necessarily be deemed overall/blanket hate symbols when a movement starts to co-opt and steal their image. Just seems unfair and super-reactionary.. like whenever an American sees the traditional East Asian usage of a swastika and loses their mind over it.

The alt-right co-opted that pepe image, but really it was the media and organizations like the SPLC that blasted that association out there into the mainstream. It's not like a swastika or a 'porch monkey' where it's universally understood, most people probably wouldn't even recognize the image, let alone associate it with hate.

This has no association with any kind of institutional discrimination or hatred, I don't really think we have to throw Pepe away.

Since then, Pepe's creator, Matt Furie, had publicly expressed[3] his dismay at Pepe being used as a hate symbol, and is currently attempting to return a more positive connotation to the meme through various means, including a Twitter campaign called #SavePepe

The Anti-Defamation League, an American organization opposed to antisemitism, included Pepe in its hate symbol database but noted that most instances of Pepe were not used in a hate-related context.[22][23]

It was the weirdest thing to even report about just going by the way it was done... I probably mentioned that in one of the election threads that it should've been ignored because the average person wouldn't care when the media went full force into it and this resurgence of scum... they also decided to go with the dumb name that got joked about with "alt-right".

At this point I doubt most instances aren't hate/trump related. It's been successfully co-opted and taking back a meme seems pretty silly anyway since they have a limited shelflife as it is.

as an average person i'd never heard of it until the altright started using it and it got all the attention so thats how I know it.

And he'll cost tax payers millions instead of the cost of a bullet because he's going to file his appeals. Plus he has state charges to be tried for.

Just shoot the fucker in the head and call it done.
