I would like to part Goldy and have my ways with her.

And as for 'ov vey', maybe that's the problem, the first comment I see at the place is

Unsubbed, you guys were getting too zionist anyway.
In one hour that comment had 76 likes.

Quite.

People I respect are right now posting long screeds consisting of some of the most ill-informed opinions I've ever heard.
I'm not biting on it because life is too short, but fucking hell.

If you advocate violence against thought then you are the nazi.
Facebook is hell for people that understand nuance but fail to understand however many genders are currently popular.

Fifty-six at last count, although if one considers gender equivalent to personality, as seems appropriate, then one could have 56 trillion, at least, to start with:

"Offensive social commentary in an accent you won't understand and skits that get people thrown in prison. Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/countdankula "

Looks like my kind of YouTuber. :-) But from the bits that I've listened to, the accent isn't all that bad - thick enough to cut with a knife but sounded pretty succinct to me. In any case, the YouTube in question:


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yO5Hdidlh2g

Didn't listen to all of it, just the first portion where he talks of some 111 genders defined by that bastion of the Enlightenment, Tumbler. Crazier that shit-house rats, the lot of them - talk about "anti-scientific and anti-intellectual"; our tax dollars at work.

It looks like Tommy Sotomayor got punched in the face at a black empowerment event in Harlem. Unfortunately, the only camera on hand was held by a spastic idiot, so there's no point in linking to it. Just use this YouTube search and pick one with a commentary you're interested in, since the video itself is pretty bad.

I live 5 minutes away from the guy and even though he may sound like an orc gargling a typewriter, I can confirm that his accent is actually quite middle-class. You should hear some of the mutants in this neck of the woods, it'd blow your mind!

Anyhoo, you should watch the full thing, it's slow to start but picks up pace half way through and the final minute is pretty damned funny.

(The final total of genders is...wow, just wow!)

So she went on a podcast that was somehow associated with Stormer. And got fired.

Meh.

Here she is saying the alt-right's
charlottesville statement which was 20 points and basically their umbrella ideas on everything from race to the JQ.... It was was actually rather robust. ... with what I think are well thought out ideas
That's my total "robust" snipping, but the context is preserved. It's a 50 second clip, but at the very least it's an extremely awkward statement to have made.

She may be able to explain it as inadvertent foot in mouth disease, but I haven't seen her try to explain it at all. (I googled a bit)

If it was a mistake, she should have been able to recognize it and walk it back immediately.

In an online interview, Goldy called the ideas “robust” and “well thought out.” (She also referred to “the JQ” — alt-right shorthand for “the Jewish question,” as if her listeners would know perfectly well what she was on about.)

The this clown won't be crying into his prison pillow soon enough.
Eric Clanton wrote:My name is Eric. I’m currently facing years of prison time as the result of accusations made in the most shockingly hateful parts of the internet. On April 19th I began being targeted by a dedicated swarm of internet trolls known for spewing racism, xenophobia, and misogyny onto the web. Suddenly a hit piece by Milo Yiannopolis caused the targeting to go viral. Several old social media photos were posted, online accounts hacked, addresses published, hundreds of calls to my employers, and countless threats of physical violence made against me, my coworkers, friends and many others. This harassment campaign is where the accusations against me originated.



Dealing with an unintelligible internet force smearing and threatening me online was not easy, and created stress to say the least, but I had every expectation that very few people would take them seriously, especially considering the character and credibility of their sources. However, five weeks later the Berkeley police smashed into two houses, held guns to peoples’ heads, handcuffed, verbally abused, and stole the belongings of over a dozen people including books and zines.



All of this after my attorney Dan Siegel had reached out to Berkeley police on my behalf, and all on the basis of an ‘investigation’ that largely involved detectives reading far right forum posts and studying unverified youtube videos. When I was interviewed at the police station detective Hong had the nerve to say to me, “the internet did the work for us.” My case threatens to set a new standard in which right wing extremists can select targets for repression and have police enthusiastically and forcefully pursue them.



This is just one example of the police doing everything in their power to facilitate and to legitimize the violence and the rhetoric of the so-called alt-right. They are also criminalizing protesters who stood up to neo-Nazis last summer, hundreds of J20 and standing rock defendants. All of this from a system that has perfected criminalization through centuries of racist policing. All of this moves in a strategy to further chill dissent, and to clamp down on resistance to the dangerous and aggressive growth of the exact kind of white supremacist violence that we saw this last weekend.



RIP Comrade

Heather Heyer gave her life trying to stop the growth of this hate. She died defending decency, and may she rest peacefully knowing that struggle will continue and multiply. There’s little comfort in words at times like these especially for people directly affected, but love and solidarity to her family and to everyone who is still physically and psychologically recovering from this brutality. We’ve got your back.



To all my supporters

I want to thank everyone who came to court for me last Thursday or tried to. I know it was much quicker and less climactic than we thought. Supporting me in this bizarre time is not only an act of care, but one of bravery and strength. Seeing that on display makes me feel our collective power. Thank you all for showing up and for all the diverse, creative, and intimate ways that support has materialized outside of court. Thank you especially to the close friends who have cared for me fearlessly and unfailingly.



The fear and anxiety that this creates is by design, and it ripples out by design, BUT we get to decide its effectiveness. Look out for each other, be safe, be careful, and think hard about what all that means in the changing landscape. Keep caring for one another too and don’t be afraid. Keep building unity, creative struggle, and long-term strategies for expanding, and strengthening the communities that we live in and want to defend. We’re stronger than they are! Solidarity always!



Special thanks to the Bay Area Anti Repression Committee and the Labor Action Committee to Free Mumia Abu-Jamal for helping build support, the Community Readiness Corps for helping keep me safe, and the amazing lawyers who have been donating their time to help me fight this!

Faith introduced to me the term "visible minority". Now I get "JQ". She just won't quit giving.

But pray tell what is the question? Without that there can be no "Solution"?

70 years ago, both India and Pakistan got independence. Indians have become CEOs of Google, Microsoft, Pepsico, Jaguar, and Land Rover etc .

Pakistanis have become heads of Taliban, Al-Qaeda, Jammat U Dawa and Hijbul Mujahideen.
Saw this on Facebook. Didn't realise until fairly recently that India and Pakistan were split more or lessly on religious lines - Muslims to Pakistan. Well as far as I read in some weird article late one night. I think.

That seems reasonably convincing. The only thing I'd add is that people who think talking about the JQ is terrible racism, but also openly talk about how terrible white people are have no leg to stand on.

In American, it means 'convention'. Or when used in 'con artist', 'confidence trickster'.

I'll go with the French meaning, because it shines a whole better light on 'Skepticon'.

All done in record time too,, basically after WW2 Britain couldn't afford to rule India (or anywhere else in the Empire for that matter) and a deal was struck in quick time to partition with largely muslim areas becoming Pakistan & East Pakistan (now Bangladesh) this pissed the Sikhs and Hindus off and re awoke sactarian divides, hundreds of thousands were killed, raped and forced to leave their homes never to return. Tensions in the region and indeed between India and Pakistan remain to this day.

The price of independence huh?

That's one of the biggest problem with the SocJus. They keep harping on about how terrible White Cis Het Male are instead of trying to solve issues without playing the blame game. They use argument based on race to reply to arguments based on race.

I have zero sympathy for the "alt-right" race-obsessed crowd. But in order to criticize them you can't generalize about the Evil Cis Het White Males. You're playing at their game, and they beat you with experience. Instead you should try to take the focus away from race.

Take police brutality/militarization of the police/the dire consequences of the War on Drugs/poor police training. All real problems with real consequences which everyone, from libertarians like Radley Balko to social democrats like Bernie Sanders, can see. And while those consequences may affect more black people than they should it's not like poor, disenfranchised white people are magically immune from them. You could organize a movement which is against those things and for law enforcement reform. You can even point out that the problem affects different communities in different ways, and that some communities, due to a lot of factors, are affected in a way that's disproportionate to their percentage in society.

But if you make it ALL about race ("White cops are murdering black people in the streets! It's a genocide!") you're going to attract all kinds of loons, from supremacists to conspiracy theorists, and to create a front of loons on the other side, from supremacists to conspiracy theorists.

Encouraging tribalism is never a good idea, even if you think you're doing it for good reasons.

Apart from this very likely being an entry in the Things That Never Happened category, this is the level of smug idiocy that some people operate on where they think they're making a profound statement and just come off looking like a giant asshole.
I guess Chick-fil-A adores customers who pay, yet stay hungry.

With the collapse of the Soviet Union, China has been North Korea's primary trading partner. Bilateral trade has sharply risen since 2007. In 2007 trade between the two countries was $1.97 billion (₩1.7 trillion). By 2011 trade had increased to $5.6 billion (₩5.04 trillion). Trade with China represents 57% of North Koreas imports and 42% of exports.

Chinese statistics for 2013 indicate that North Korean exports to China were nearly $3 billion, with imports of about $3.6 billion.
So China is roughly half of the North Korean trade, and the balance of payments is still in favor of China. Also the total of North Korean exports is around $4-$5 billion per year.

To put this number in perspective the US spent at least $700 billion in the Iraq war. So even if we suppose that a war with North Korea is half as expensive as the war with Iraq, around $350 billion, it would take at least 70 years for Uncle Sam to get a profit out of North Korea at the current rate of North Korea production of export.

North Korea is truly the El Dorado :bjarte:
Or, the Netherlands with 17M population (North Korea has 25M) exports $103 billion to Germany, or even $10 billion to Sweden. Those 3 billion are token.

Breaking news: stabbings of peace reported in Finland. No word on whether Trump will order the Confederate statues taken down so these things will stop.

Lets not forget the Finns were on literally Hitlers side during WW2 and gave that nice Mr. Stalin a bit of a kicking in the snow.

You have got to be fucking kidding me. This is the most extreme example of the crybully phenomenon I've ever seen. The cunt was sneaking around cracking people's skulls open because he didn't like their candidate. He didn't even have the balls to go into open battle like most of them do. Now he wants to play the victim? I hope they never let him out.

So it doesn't have the same ring as "goat fuckers" but "rabid donkey fuckers" does have a certain poetry to it.

There must be someone willing to attest for the good character of the defendant.
