insane motherfucker

You think he's wrong?

I think Morbs is referring to the college professor as the insane motherfucker

and otm

Ah, I see.

howbout the professor and the author

I suppose you could defend the headline by arguing it refers to "diversity of thought" rather than diversity of thought

still the slope slipperiness factor is high

It's referring to it as a rhetorical trick, so yeah, it's "diversity of thought".

yeah the people who came up with "diversity of thought" are the weird racist fucks, not the writer of the article

These fucks will be in Portland tomorrow, holding their rally in an area where you can concealed-carry:

i was going to do a volunteer orientation tomorrow but i guess now that there's a riot scheduled in the area i'll have to put it off.

ARMED RACISTS: Less than an hour before the protest in #Portland and Patriot Prayer along with other alt-right members are getting tooled up! They don't see this as a Protest, they see it as a war.#DefendPDX #AllOutPDX pic.twitter.com/HIE6fAGrPc

The honest truth is that the category of dumb fuckers those dumb fucks belong to makes them vastly more likely to harm themselves and/or each other than anyone else. This is why I’m not especially intimidated by people like that.

funny, that's not how it worked out in Charlottesville

The military thinking demonstrated by the occupiers of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge was rather low grade, but they did show some tactical thinking and some discipline. Most white supremacists may look and talk like bozos, but there are enough vets mixed in you shouldn't discount them as entirely clueless about weaponry and tactical violence.

QED

maybe when neo-Nazi types are hanging out at home with their buddies they are prone to shooting themselves or one another accidentally, but that would not seem especially relevant to street fighting, especially against unarmed counter-protestors.

Has there ever been a militant group that would be so easy to infiltrate?

That would require anyone responsible was at all interested in infiltrating these groups.

fwiw I think that the more "serious" WP groups are much closer in kind to paramilitary/criminal organizations and a lot harder to infiltrate than, like, 4chan

I'm sure a good 5-10% are FBI and other law enforcement, keeping an eye. But even in the event of some insurrection, I suspect they'd fall apart as their leaders were fragged.

maybe not fbi necessarily, but

If they're anything like the UK law enforcement responsible for such things they're too busy 'infiltrating' (i.e. knocking up) hippies to worry about people firebombing mosques and attacking/killing leftists etc.

Hmm. I hope everyone's being safe.

I’m not scared of ths current crop of alt right losers, who are generally more incompetent and cowardly than their forebears

I'm more worried about the police getting flustered and cracking some heads.

Crying about being arrested in their youtubes, conspiring to bone their stepmoms, getting punched in the face during interviews etc. these guys are clowns.

we have a good police commissioner in portland. the head of the police union is a fucking moron, but our police commissioner is ok.

Minneapolis's police union head BOB KKKroll is such a racist piece of shit and seems to be able to basically de facto overrule or severely undermine attempts by commissioners or mayors to change anything

As someone on twitter pointed out, cops are much more likely to try to disperse antifa than the fash (as has apparently been the case today), which makes it easier for the latter to swarm the former a little later on. I've seen this dynamic play out firsthand.

Fuck cops.

Yeah fuck PPD in particular, frienda mine who used to live there regularly had to deal with getting Less Lethal’d by those shits

report from Portland lending credence to TOmbot's pov:

This is extra hilarious: so the Proud Boys (what a dipshit Peter Pan name for your gang of dickless clowns) and Patriot Prayer (stop it) decided that a Fred Meyer parking lot in the Vancouver was the right place to load up their out-of-towers and bus them into Portland for shit-stirring. Fred Meyer has responded to this poor organizational decision with a fleet of tow trucks, which promptly took their cars to the $1000 impound lot. It is illegal to park in their lot and leave, after all. This is a fitting clapback to the uninvited bad publicity they got with the weird decision to use that lot in the first place.

A Portland anti-fascist protestor was hit in the head with a flash bang grenade; it basically seems like he survives because he wore a helmet.

In the third photograph, you can see Portland police officers grinning after firing the grenade. https://t.co/YYRg5MFj5W
