the alt-right

physician heal thyself

The Portland paper controlled by Orange County conservative types ran this lovely op-ed today by a Scaife/Devos-funded rightwing thinktank alum:

We will be announcing actions and responses to the recent decisions by @Oregonian shortly. Freedom of the press is something we should all cherish but that does not mean their speech should be free of criticism. Stay tuned. pic.twitter.com/eGqbseWVEe

am interested in hearing what their actions and responses might entail - there's a lot of knee-jerk "but freedom of the press" response to any criticism of anything that passes (as the oregonian unfortunately does) for "mainstream media".

shouting 'not fascist' in a crowded fascism

Oregonian Editorial page Editor Laura Gunderson admitted fault today in choosing the headline to Sunday's column—and also over its timing. (It was printed the morning after an anti-Semitic gunman killed 11 people in a Pittsburgh synagogue.)

"It would have benefited, in hindsight, with more context from Gibson's Portland protests," she wrote in a statement to local media. "We wrote the headline, not Hovde, and it missed the mark. We also regret the timing of the column, which was edited on the Friday before the shootings in Pittsburgh."

god they’re all such fucking gross dorks

haha otm

there's this dichotomy of them believing they are the last stand of normal regular americans and also being insane weirdos

No talk of Deeyah Khan's White Right: Meeting The Enemy? I saw it a few months ago and it's good. If I recall correctly it's 6 Nazis and 2 former Nazis interviewed. A lot of them look visibly uncomfortable and a couple definitely soften (but they're still extremists for sure) but Richard Spencer acts like a cartoon villain throughout (but he was never interviewed alone, always with his guys).

It's on Netflix along with her earlier film, Jihad.

I think their desire to identify as protectors of normal America very much flows from their insecurities and weirdnesses.

philly fash gathering tomorrow

gritty is going to dine on flesh tomorrow

I hope the city pelted Santa with batteries has a commensurate response in store for fucking nazis

very little about today's world gives me more pleasure than gritty instantly becoming the face of the left

my pal who spends his time keeping up with the right says we shouldn't expect much showing tomorrow, another UTR 2-style wild outnumbering

the publishing event of the century

Vox Day (Theodore Beale) is so mad that Jordan Peterson outshone him that he wrote a whole book about it.

Milo, who is also mad he's irrelevant now, wrote the foreword. pic.twitter.com/UutWcQ89uH

He lies ... described me as "an amazing person"

lol

my high school best friend/freshman college roommate was and probably is a huge vox day fan and my god that depresses me

ha I also had a college radio friendquaintance who discovered vox day in like senior year and became* completely awful and insufferable

*became is inaccurate, he was always a shithead

my old EiC used to play Doom w/Vox Day when he was just some random nerd from MN, he mentioned it to me years ago when he was just a sorta typical video game gadfly dick type, i will try to get more info next time i run into him

laura loomer handcuffed herself to the front door of the Twitter offices

how are she and Baked Alaska not a couple yet

why is she wearing a Nazi Star of David

because she got banned from twitter i assume and she's somehow, as a jewish person, making that analogy

like laura loomer roughly three times a day, twitter is publicly owned https://t.co/HmodtQ9biU

why is she wearing a Nazi Star of David

she thought it was a Sheriff's star

you can watch it live lmao lmao

https://www.pscp.tv/w/1BdGYOmrVNQxX

ok I legit think she expected to get escorted away sooner, she had like 5 minutes of material now she's just standing there and complaining about how cold it is

Should have chained herself to both doors.

is she still there? maybe I can go down there and heckle her

not exactly shocked to hear that twitters door is always open to nazis

(this is in nyc)

oh dang, thought this was at the SF HQ

You'll have to shout pretty loudly then.

how are she and Baked Alaska not a couple yet

https://forward.com/fast-forward/382452/laura-loomer-is-dating-neo-nazi-who-once-trolled-her-with-gas-chamber-meme/

that link indicates they actually were not a couple

but they IM'd each other etc so idk

fuck, love is a lie

imagine being this woman's parents.

"hey, nice to see you guys. what's your daughter laura been up to?"

"uh...."

of course, there's a not-insignificant chance her parents are loons as well.
