U.S. Riots of May 2020 over George Floyd and others - ITT: a bunch of faggots butthurt about worthless internet stickers

Not open for further replies.
Ah, I think I get the source of some of the confusion now -

As the Gateway Pundit reported earlier in the day, the militant leftists attacked two conservatives who were filming the protest. They also attacked a vehicle they believed to belong to the conservatives, but actually belonged to someone who was there in support of their cause. There was a frightened dog inside while they smashed the windows out with hammers.


So it wasn't his car with the doggo in the back.

Btw, that looks like a nice motor, what the fuck are they doing screaming about muh inequality? He doesn't look like a pitbull owner either. Probably belonged to some nigger drug-dealer (but I repeat myself). Doubly lucky old shep didn't pounce out of the back through the broken window and latch on to them for dear life.

Anyway, James is a 'conservative' so 'not one of them', and that was all the probable cause they needed I guess.

Marshall University professor wishes for every Trump supporter to die before the election. These people are sick.



















30 seconds in: I hope they all die before the election.

And she's fucking serious. You know that if she could make it so, she would. Because she is right. Everyone else is wrong. Fucking stunning.


"I really should not be talking politics"


You got that right you fucking blobfish! Marine biology is where you need to focus your fat time! What a cunt.
 
Trapping motorists and forcing them to swear allegiance before allowing them to pass in Portland. These guys committed the mortal sin of being bald and in a truck:

snip
Portland was strange last night, the rioters never actually provoked a violent response from the cops (unless it happened during the 15 minutes I was making popcorn between 11:40something and shortly after midnight) and their goal seemed to be to harass shift changes, but that didn't even really happen. Riot cops showed up once to push them back and were not seen for the rest of the night. Three cop cars tried to get into the garage and only 2 made it, one got walked in front of by some scrawny blackhoodie prompting them to back up and drive away to jeers of "that's a one way street" by a group of people blocking a street. I assume they got in at some point but it wasn't on camera.

What happened as a backdrop to that was first that truck, this is actually not the first encounter with that truck or its passengers had with the rioters. They stopped to talk with some press just prior to this stop. The timeline is a bit hazy as I was only kind of watching 9 livestreams at the same time but this truck parked shortly thereafter and one of the passengers (perhaps the only passenger, whoever was in the visible passenger's side seat during the video) got out and started drunkenly talking with press and rioters which continued for quite some time, during which time I seem to recall that truck had left where it parked (only the driver inside). At some point drunk guy got back in the truck or went back to the parked truck, as the truck itself and its two occupants were also briefly investigated by motocycle cops, who then left without doing much more than interviews it looked like. Reminder at this point that the reason I know this is because the press were literally running from point to point desperately looking for content and some rioters were following these two to keep tabs on them.

I want to say the riot cops showed up between "drunk dude hanging out with press" and "police motorcycles" but my memory of the exact timeline there is hazy.

It didn't end there though, because somewhat later other cars and trucks started to show up until at least 4 different vehicles were kind of, I don't want to say "doing laps" because that implies a quantity and regularity not in evidence, but they kept showing up on cameras in a way that didn't seem organic to me. They weren't driving recklessly or anything, far from it, if anything they were being extra cautious. One eventually parked, affixed a huge US flag to the back of her sedan (there was some kind of rig for this on the back), and drove off again.

Not many people were left by this point among the press/rioters so the numbers weren't there to do stops so people were mostly just getting out of the way, but the car activity did feel like a counter-op of some sort, perhaps impromptu, going on. Whether the goal was to try and provoke a violent response for the camera or to be the excuse the police need to drop the hammer ("obstructing vehicle traffic") was unclear, but the rioters were some of the better behavior I've seen in a while for some reason, at least later in the evening.

If I'm erring somewhere let me know, again I was half watching and enjoying beverages so my recollection is hazy for a reason.
 
To go into that cult shit just a bit more, consider the tactics of most cults that you're aware of. For example here we'll take Heaven's Gate:

Much of Marshall Applewhite's strategy for brainwashing and manipulation, you'll find very stark parallels to it among the modern "intersectional" left.
1. Self-debasement. Prostrating oneself before superiors, putting that superior's needs before your own, giving up time and effort and money to the benefit of the superior.
2. Self-mutilation. Men in the Heaven's Gate cult had to volunteer for castration. Likewise, the modern left mutilates themselves as well, particularly the troon death-cult but also with shitty tattoos, piercings, etc.
3. Members of cults are often encouraged to cut-off or snub their family members and any friends they had prior to the cult, just as leftists are told they should shun their family members if they disagree.
4. They have hero figures that they typically treat as almost a messiah or "above human", like RBG, Barack Obama, and I'm sure many of them idolize Communist leaders.
5. They are constantly recruiting, and hardly ever talk about anything except the cult, everything they do and say and write is related in some way to the cult.
6. Chants, songs, hymns, statements, mottos and pledges are repeated incredibly often, almost every day, and they form rituals like kneeling or raising a fist in the air.
7. They are often encouraged to sacrifice their own well-being, self-respect and safety to help the cult reach certain objectives.

Maybe I'm reaching when it comes to some of this, but this shit definitely is Grade A cult behavior. This cult, in particular regard to the tranny sector, have managed to get all of its' adherents and many outsiders to relinquish facts. One of the most bedrock concepts in all of human history, the one thing that all humans have always innately understood, you're either a man or a woman, they have managed to get a whole lot of people outright denying this fact or questioning its veracity. If you can brainwash and indoctrinate so many people into wholeheartedly rejecting reality, there isn't a whole lot you can't do or won't do.

I think in the future, if there is one, a hundred years from now people will look back on transgenderism and the cult of intersectionalism with great horror and disgust. They'll look at it then the same way we look back upon lobotomies and asylums now. Except, in hindsight, perhaps lobotomies, electroshock and asylums were necessary evils to keep these degenerate bad actors from corrupting Western society.

Another common cult tactic is forbidding people from accessing information that goes against the cult's teachings. Now these lunatics are canceling people just for following the wrong person on Twitter. It doesn't matter whether someone agrees with anything posted on that Twitter account. Their sin was even looking at it in the first place.
 
Learn to code motherfucker! Then you might be able to parse/debug/decompile/disassemble that sheeit!! (and make sure you're using 'Linux for Niggers', while you're about it...)

Ok, that's enough fun for now. Back to work.

Remember that poor soul that had his car hammered to death with his pitbull doggo in the back scared half to death?

Well, his name is James Klug and here is his twitter: https://twitter.com/realJamesKlug

He's a 'political commentator' and 'frontline debater', apparently. Not sure what his politics are. I don't think he's antifa (see video to follow), but then again, I don't see him anti-trump (might be wrong). Someone said he was an anti-trump protester, but the fog of war and all that. Anyway...

View attachment 1609595


I really don't know what he did to piss on their chips, but he seemed to upset them over something.

Antifa were in a foul mood because they had been duped by the Proud Boys apparently, who said that they were holding a march, then didn't turn up.

They were FURIOUS.

SEETHING.



Proud Boys Promote Fake Rally to Expose Violent Antifa Lunatics — and it Worked (Videos)




The Proud Boys advertised a fake rally in West Philadelphia’s Clark Park on Saturday, causing Antifa to flood the streets.

When the Proud Boys did not show up, they attacked conservative independent media instead.


As the Gateway Pundit reported earlier in the day, the militant leftists attacked two conservatives who were filming the protest. They also attacked a vehicle they believed to belong to the conservatives, but actually belonged to someone who was there in support of their cause. There was a frightened dog inside while they smashed the windows out with hammers.

So it's not just small children and women that these cunts like to bully, it's small animals as well. Funny how they are nowhere to be seen around the biker bars innit? Love how they project calling others 'cowards' when demonstrably they are the biggest cowards of all. Their time will come.

Read the archive - it renders better for some reason compared to the main link.



BREAKING: a protester comes alongside creator @realJamesKlug with a bat and hits the ground next to him with force The crowd then turns on the man and confuses him for being a Trump supporter, calling him a Nazi

View attachment 1609609















The video I posted yesterday of the girl in the pinkish top who antifa assaulted, was actually with him in this vid.

I still can't work out why they targeted him. Maybe because he had a camera? Maybe because he doesn't look like a spiteful mutant reject from humanity? Fuck knows.

He holds his own though, when this pissantifa screams at him YOU LOOKING FOR TROUBLE?

Top fucking KEK. I'm actually starting to like this bloke and I'm sorry his wagon got fucked up with his cute little doggo in the back.

I think he may be one of us. Well he fucking will be now after that shit anyway. LOL.

I'm picking up some serious (((cosmopolitan))) vibes with these names, don't know about you. I think the jews might be revolting!
But not as revolting as that fat nigger covering him in half a bucket of saliva.


Anyway, I've taken a shine to this boy. He handled himself with aplomb and even if he isn't on our side, he does a good job of pretending to be neutral and an impartial observer. But remember you have to take a side in this war - there will be no neutral observers - you are either with us or you are against us. This might have made things a little easier for him to make that oh so difficult decision. I like him.

Still don't know what sparked the zombies off, but I think we kind of get the general gist of what happened.

Shame that that vicious fucking pitbull didn't leap out the back of the wagon though and rip seven chunks of soy out of some antifa's noodly appendage. When those little bastards clamp down on a piece of meat you can beat the living shit out of them and they won't let go until a piece of actual flesh or muscle drops off on to the floor. They do it for fun!

Maybe next time...
Non left forces have been doing the fake parade tactic for years now. They set up multi places and never show up. Or they show up in one place whole announcing they will show up else where far away.

It causes chaos with antifa. With no one to fight they turn on themselves quickly. Or bystanders.

Its very effective.

It give momentum to counter crowds. Of antifa shows up and no one is there?

Thet can be easily mocked and made fun of.

Haha, look at the dumb asses. They showed up and no one did. If they spread their forces to get at right wing protesters? Then its easier to bring down a larger crowd to beat their ass. If antifa doesnt shown up. They can be mocked for not showing up.

Pretty much this.

Liberals will decry the Senate and electoral college as "undemocratic" because it doesn't go with the popular vote.

Now, if you point out that we are supposed to have ~10,866 people in the house of representatives, (329 million divided by 30,000 as per the formula in the Constitution) Liberals heads explode. Suddenly that is TOO MUCH DEMOCRACY.

They are fine with Oligarchy as long as it is their oligarchs who get in.



I wonder if GPS could be programmed to avoid these check points. Or if a text alert system could be set up.

Coordinating a counter response would be a way to go.
GPS journalists. I think this is a service people would gladly pay for.
 
The fact that the Portland riots have died down during the Kenosha riots and during this supposedly White House Siege, nailed it for me that these assholes are traveling across the country to start shit everywhere with Portland being their base of operations.
Even though the thread moves quickly, people here have documented social media posts directing "comrades" to travel to various locales across the US to support local protest efforts. I believe the most recent example was the recent brouhaha in Lancaster.

Black Futures Lab has gotten support from not only Black Lives Matter but also the Chinese Government, which actually praised the Marxist uprising agains the police.
China has a vested interest in seeing infighting within the US. It wouldn't surprise me if China's support went beyond mere words.

He also just dominated Tyron Woodley who answered every question at a pre-fight interview with "Black Lives Matter"
Nonsense like this is what's driving normies away from watching or supporting their favorite teams/athletes. Woodley could have reasonably made his point by answering the questions properly and wrapping up with something along the lines of, "And remember, black lives matter," without presenting himself as being struck in the head too many times during his career.

There's a blind person at tonight's Portland protest.
WTH does #FTP mean in her bio? I have a feeling it doesn't stand for file transfer protocol.

Look at this absolute fucking joke of a guillotine. It looks like a fucking prop from a Halloween attraction. God these stupid fuckwits can't do shit right.
NGL, shit-tier, low effort Halloween/haunted house prop guillotines look better than that.

Blm/ antifa are setting up check points just like death squads in Syria or iraq.
> BLM/Antifa speak out in favor of open borders and defunding police
> BLM/Antifa create an autonomous zone with physical borders and checkpoints in/out.

:story:

This is terrorism plain and simple. America shouldnt allow for this behavior to continue. Its no longer a parade but a low key insurrection.
I agree; this is a textbook example of domestic terrorism.

As much as some of the stories over in the pit bull thread are horrifying :cryblood: , I wish that would have happened as well.


All these forced changes they want to put in law enforcement just reminds me of the subplot of Robocop 2 (if these people can make a bunch of references to pop culture so can I) where OCP flooded Murphy with 300 new directives to make him marketable and family friendly.
A lot of the speeches they give about how the police should behave or how these new "violence interrupters" would function just remind me of some of the Directives Murphy was give. Movie showed how well trying to follow them worked out with Robocop being super ineffective at doing his job.
in the film OCP was covertly trying to keep Detroit in a constant state of crime as way to justify its Delta City project. The extra directives were intended to keep Robocop from properly enforcing the law and hindering those secret plans.

The real life parallel is Antifa/BLM's efforts to defund the police so that they and their goons can do anything they want with impunity while everyone else suffers from the diminished abilities of the nuPolice.

Kiwi Farms was down (for me) for like half an hour.
Perhaps unrelated, but Dreamhost had some abrupt DNS issues overnight (Eastern US Time). Combine that with the dDOS reported on the front page, and connectivity issues wouldn't be that surprising.

I can't post a link or archive because the editiorial is behind a paywall, but the Detroit News' Editorial Page Editor wrote an op-ed piece titled BLM is squandering its movement. The first sentence is a perfect TL;DR summary:

Nolan Finley said:
Support for Black Lives Matter is dropping as the movement fails to pivot from endless protest to positive action.

A few other key quotes from the article:
  • "Americans are growing weary of endless protests ruining their downtown and straining resources without a clear end game."
  • "A poll from the Hill last week measured BLM support at 55%, down 12 points from June. It will drop further if the movement continues to be more about revolution than reform."
  • "Real change can't be forced."
  • "BLM as an organization can't work within the system because its founding purpose was to destroy the system."

Not sure what to make of this one. Just throwing it out there -

Black Lives Matter co-founder teams up with pro-Chinese Communist Party group




A “trained Marxist” founder of Black Lives Matter has teamed up on a new venture with a pro-Chinese Communist Party organization.

Alicia Garza is now behind the advocacy group Black Futures Lab, which is backed by the Chinese Progressive Association, according to the website.

The group says it “gathers information about the ways that policy affects black communities” to educate and challenge lawmakers.

On a page soliciting donations, the group is described as a “fiscally sponsored project of the Chinese Progressive Association.”

The Black Futures Lab didn’t immediately respond to requests for comment on the partnership.

Black Lives Matter co-founder Patrisse Cullors once described herself and Garza
as “trained Marxists.”



"Trained Marxists"

As opposed to untrained marxists.


We are super-versed on, sort of, ideological theories.

Oh really?

I'm super-versed, sort of, at spotting bullshit from 200 yards.



Years ago, when I first heard of the free helicopter rides that used to happen in South America, I honestly wondered to myself how man could be so inhumane to man. And I never really did answer that question. However, this particular new [CURRENT_YEAR] has schooled me, now I'm SUPER-VERSED, on how it all went down. I realise that it wasn't inhumanity at play, it was a taking out of the trash that needed to be done after probably years of pent-up over-boiling emotions not given sway. The groundwork is being laid again it would seem.
 
They have one thing they haven't tried yet. Assassination.

Oh boy am I looking forward to the results of them trying THAT. If there is anything that would make the independents flock to Trump in droves, it would be an attempt on Trump's life and the INEVITABLE defense by the left.

Dont mind me. Im just here to watch the violence.
Googling FTP gets me this site: https://fuckthepopulation.com/ Or you know, Fuck the Police.

For the people?
 
idk if i said this before but im surprised nobody has gone full siege mode and went to one of these protests to mow them all down yet

It's because /pol/, Gab, and the Stormfags all more or less agreed to just sit down, lock the doors, and let their enemies self-destruct in their own frenzy. The "Scenario B" meme, if you will. So far, it's worked.

The actual alt-right learned their lesson the hard way after Charlottesville and Tarrant's rampage more or less solidified it. They're hunkering down, although there were rumors of actual action after Kenosha Kyle, but then he got railroaded so they're going to wait until the election is over and the Rittenhouse court proceedings are done.

Wow, these German commies look suprisingly normal compared to their US counterparts. It must be far more mainstream there.

Considering their commander-in-chief was a Stasi collaborator and the country has collective self-loathing written into their very constitutional laws, I'd say Germany is more or less okay with this type of commie bullshit.

Antifa gets government funding under the Merkel regime.

Two cities I lived in had one of those embarrassing coffee house/music venue/free love and peace and poetry and shit kind of places.
Mid to late 90s. Most of them dressed weird like these antifatards and spouted jargon like cryptofascist and pussy shit. The day Hot topic finally opened at the "better" mall they were walking around glassy eyed and stunned they finally had a place. It's so manufactured.
The temp agency sent one of the these 90lb chinless goons to my plant and he spent most of his time avoiding work graffitting band names onto the bathroom stalls.
I wonder if he's rioting now, I should look him up.
I guess I saw the dry run or prototype for the tremendous amount of fucktard useful idiots back then.

Weak pussies fell into this culture.
It's been going on longer than most people have noticed.

I know I've said it many times but punk culture was a mistake and punk was never good.


Someone should put some pronouns and pride flags in their Twitter bio and then tell them about Lenin's persecution of LGBT people. Or Stalin's. Or Mao's. Or the Kim Dynasty's. Or Castro's.

If anyone is a fucking group of zealots in 2020, it's the left. This intersectional bullshit is a new religion, though honestly outside of Islam I've never seen, in modern times, so many people so dedicated to their religion that they would beat, kill and destroy over it. Therefore I would compare it more to a cult. It's like The People's Temple except very unfortunately it seems none of them are going to fucking kill themselves and spare us all the aggravation. Well, except the trannies, but that's a given. And not only is this a cult, but it's a dangerous one as well. It might even just be a terrorist cult. Using direct violence, threats of violence or implied violence to accomplish objectives or bend people to concede to their agenda. That's fucking textbook terrorism. And when you do consider the fact that this is indeed a cult, look at what happened to right-wing cults or even just communities. Until recently, this Intersectional Cult was treated with kid gloves.

How about Waco? "Well Koresh might have fucked some kids so we went in with snipers and tanks." How about the Weavers, which wasn't a cult but rather a group of people who wanted to live their own way and weren't bothering anybody? They sent sniper teams after them, too, and entrapped Randy Weaver on bullshit charges to boot. Even going back to the old People's Temple reference, they treated those assholes with kid gloves too, until Leo Ryan was killed and then finally they thought "maybe we should do something about this" but by the time they arrived it was too late to hold Jones accountable and everybody was fucking dead.

Classic projection. These motherfuckers are the true zealots in 2020 but they still want to try and beat the public over the head with the "evangelical right" bullshit that died off sometime around 2008 or earlier. And what did the evangelical right really do? Yeah, they were fucking annoying, trying to ban video games because Eric Harris liked Doom, or bitching about heavy metal and D&D because it was Satanic. There was that whole "attack planned parenthood" chapter too, I'll give them that. But did the evangelical right reduce entire city blocks to rubble? Did they continue doing so for THREE fucking months? Not that I can recall. The evangelical right zealots were a bunch of old church ladies bitching about Marilyn Manson for the most part, with a few more radical fucksticks going postal every now and again. This isn't fucking 1999, the only "evangelical right" people that still make any trouble are the Westboro people and they mostly just troll the shit out of everyone.

Eh, if you lived in the Bible Belt, it could get pretty bad but the issue was that it was all regional and never went national outside of the West Memphis Three trial (and that eventually became a death knell for the fundies) and most of the national outcries of the fundies and neocons were either lone nutcases attacking abortion clinics (who were quickly denounced) or typical "think of the children" attempts at media censorship.

Any genuine control of secular government was all at the local level and any national influence the fundies had was entirely because of the neocons bankrolling them as useful idiots.

The same is happening with neoliberals funding the Woke Left but the Woke Left emerged more or less from the ashes of the hated Religious Right. Keep in mind that the reason women tend to get alienated by any attempt at anti-progressive rhetoric is entirely due to the fundies more or less being associated with anti-progressivism for multiple generations. Nobody except Boomer rednecks and internet traditionalist faggot Zoomer edgelords like The Distributist want us to be a Christian theocracy or have a society based on those morals.

The coalfields of central Appalachia was more or less a de facto Calvinist theocracy in many places back in the 80's and 90's, but if you didn't live there you'd have no idea. The only actual cult-like control of authorities from the Religious Right that got national attention was West Memphis Three, and that eventually boomeranged on the fundies and more or less made the rest of the country hate the Bible Belt with a searing passion.

If the 2020 Election goes well for Trump and we see a wider backlash, then the George Floyd riots would be like the West Memphis Three and Charlottesville combined in terms of how it will affect the Woke Left.
Is she implying the Weimar republic was a good thing? Are they really that retarded?

A lot of people forget that the only reason why the Weimar Republic had all the prevalent open homosexuality, drag queens (not transgender, unless they were a rare dysphoric), and a cabaret culture of drugs and prostitution being de facto decriminalized is not because Germany was a liberal progressive country under the Weimar government but because it was a dysfunctional basket case of a failed state where nothing could get done. All those things were illegal on the books under German laws but the authority of the Republic largely existed only on paper in most places, even in the capital of Berlin.

The Freikorps, the Bolshevik gangs, the Iron Front (who were liberal social democrats that hated the communists and anarchists every bit as much as the fascists), the anarchist mad bombers, and the like were all more or less the raiders from Mad Max or the gangs in The Warriors but IRL and you even had gangs of "Wild Boys" who were gangs of gay teenage boys who were more or less the homo version of A Clockwork Orange.

The Weimar Republic was a low-functioning basket case country in the best of times and a total anarchist dystopia in the worst of times. We did get a lot of cinematic landmarks like Dr. Caligari, Metropolis, and Nosferatu and breakthroughs in architecture and music but they happened in spite of the Weimar Republic's government, not because of it.


The left using the words "deplorables" unironically in 2020 is like a right-winger unironically quoting Ben Shapiro and Sargon in 2020.

Yes the Senate (well congress as a whole) is a "problem for Democracy" but we are not nor have ever been a Democracy.

Imagine going though 12 or 13 (for Kindergarten) years of school hearing "... and for the Republic for which it stands..."
Imagine going though prelaw which includes a bunch of political science classes
Imagine being a "Civil Rights" lawyer which requires knowledge of constitutional law, and most likely read the papers of the Founding Fathers and the Federalist papers
Imagine going though all that and then getting up to talk in front of a bunch of people and calling America a Democracy.

Its a fucking Constitutional Republic, as far as I am concern any lawyer who calls the US a Democracy is a quack

IIRC, they often use "democracy" or "democratic republic" as a shorthand since a Constitutional Republic (or at least the American model of it) uses representative democracy to distinguish it from the aristocratic republics like the ancient Roman Republic or the merchant republics of medieval Italy and the Netherlands.
