Here’s a list of weird/strange articles on wikipedia in no particular order for you to read and just add more useless knowledge in your puny human brain. General murder/death trigger warning for most.
The fucking liberal fake news media as at it again with their “pointing out when someone does a racist”. The leftist machine won’t stop cranking out their propaganda.
I hear one blogger called him a Swedish Meatball, where is the headline about that racism??
Its seriously irritating when I’m talking to someone with an interest in VC/taxidermy who doesnt know about the MBTA and then laugh it off when I tell them about it
“Well I’VE never been caught, LMAO!”
“Oh, well I’ve already been collecting these illegal birds for a while, too late now I guess lol”
“Um the mbta isnt real I would know because my dad is a certified top biologist state trooper lol”
Like I really don’t want to seem like a jerk for going on about laws, just trying to be helpful and educate! But have fun laughing when you get a huge fine I guess, lol
It’s annoying too because even though I myself don’t like theMBTA it doesn’t mean I’m just gonna willy-nilly break the law, like just because you didn’t know or you didn’t agree it doesn’t change the fact that it’s a real thing
I had to inform so many people about the MBTA
People are stupid
Exactly. I don’t like it either, and tbh it would be nice if it could be improved so that people won’t get in huge trouble for picking up fallen feathers and things like that, but the law was made for a reason and its saved many bird species from going extinct.
And I don’t blame young newbies for not knowing about it, hey even I didn’t know it was a thing at first, but as soon as I found out about it I corrected myself and disposed of all my bird parts instead of being like “lawl whatever I wont get caught rofl lolol xD”
One of many things that Molly and her friends observed while Andy was with them in LA this summer was that he was nasty and just plain weird toward the men in the group. In particular, he told well-known science YouTuber Kyle Hill’s girlfriend that he’d thought Kyle was just her “pretty trophy boy”. Here are screenshots that she shared on Molly’s public Facebook post about Andy:
Those would have been sent on June 8, the night that Gather Your Party did #GatherYourSciFi.
Aside from that being a shitty thing to say about anyone, it was ridiculous. Of course Andy knew who Kyle was! He’d thoroughly checked out Molly’s and her friends’ social media, adding many of them before they even met, and it was vanishingly unlikely that he hadn’t noticed Kyle at all during that process. Besides, Andy is (or was) a member of Project Alpha, which streams Because Science, and Kyle is sometimes featured in their other content as well. It seemed evident that Andy was playing mind games with Kyle’s girlfriend, which another FB commenter described as, “The ol’ ‘hey your boyfriend doesn’t seem like your boyfriend really hahahahaha he shouldn’t be your boyfriend just saying! 🙃’”
They couldn’t be 100% sure about that, obviously. “Vanishingly unlikely” doesn’t mean “impossible”. There was a minuscule chance that Andy honestly didn’t know who Kyle was when he made that rude comment.
He did, though. And here’s proof. On April 24, a little over a month before he went to LA, Andy recommended Kyle’s show to Meg:
I find it hard to believe that over the next seven weeks, Andy completely forgot about this guy such that he wouldn’t recognize him when they were in the same room together. Just saying.
It’s my opinion that like if a white supremacist/Nazi is going to be reformed. They need to do so willingly. The only times I’ve heard of successful rehabilitation of fascists is when they made the conscious decision to no longer be one anymore and seek atonement. People who try to like hug and change fascists that don’t want to change are fucking morons
Correct. I was crypto-facist for a few years, and the people trying to hug me didnt change me because at that point I wouldnt have listened. It was only when I started to see the movement for what it was that I was finally able to listen.
I’m not derailing your addition but I’m horrified you’re only 18. When did you become a fasc?
Yeah trust me it *is* horrifying. I’m ashamed of who I was and I think my only atonement is to talk about how damn easy it is to become one when you’re young.
This is gonna be a long post.
For a little bit of background, I am a mixed race person, half brown and half white. I was raised in a Muslim family and am still closeted around them.
I started to have issues with Islam at around 12 or so, when I first started to get the idea that I might be gay. Now I never would have admitted that was my reason. If you had asked me I probably would have said “logic” or something. Because of that I went hard into atheism and atheist circles.
Now people hate to admit this but ex-Muslim spaces are predominantly right wing. Ex-Muslims often see the left as “too tolerant” towards a religion that hurt them. This was the only community I had though, and I read through everything. I was 13.
The other thing that people hate to admit is that, especially when you’re young, being mixed race is so damn hard. If I acted “too white”, following my mother’s German/Austrian traditions, I was accused of hiding my true nature. But if I acted “too brown” I was just another camel jockey. So I hid my “Indian” customs from others and tried passing as white. Especially online.
So I’m not saying this is all youtube’s fault or anything. I was raised to believe that the brown half of my family was lesser and stupid. And with my hatred of Islam, I believed it doubly.
Then came Anita Sarkeesian. I was watching pewdiepie and from there my recommendations were all set. If I’m remembering the pipeline it was pewdiepie – Philip Defranco – Chris Ray Gun (sp?) – Thunderfoot – Sargon – etc. But I was pretty much acquainted with all of the right wing youtube of the day.
Funnily enough, I found her through Thunderfoot. That got me into antifeminism, and more specifically, GamerGate.
I was primarily on the subreddits KIA (Kotaku In Action) and TIA (Tumblr In Action). Both made fun of the SJWs. I kid you not, I would gleefully wait for “Sanity Sunday”, where the people would talk about how feminism is disgusting, cultural appropriation is fake, the wage gap isnt real, etc. I would scroll through this tag for hours.
I got most of my youtube recommendations from those subreddits. This led me from GamerGate to more fascist lines of thinking, such as watching videos about why BLM is a terrorist organization, why all muslims were evil rapists, and why I was fundamentally right to reject my Indian heritage and follow my “correct” heritage.
From here I delved into “race realism”, and I believed it all. I had to. This was the only community I had felt safe in. One of the fash guys even offered to shack me up at his house if my parents kicked me out for being atheist. I was 15.
To say that again, I was 15 and believed that white was right, blue lives matter, “we wuz kangs”, etc. I never would have called myself a fascist or a Nazi. How could I? I used my brown skin as a token, so that people could point to me and say: “See, we aren’t misogynistic and racist! We have this brown girl right here.” But I believed in all the things the Nazis did. I’m not going to pretend I didn’t. I will never pretend I didn’t.
But then something happened. I admitted to myself, and to a few others, that I was gay. And suddenly, the homophobia that I had molded myself in, it didn’t fit right. I happened to, by accident, click on the reddit thread of GamerGhazi, the opposition to GamerGate. And after a long bout of introspection I found out that they were accepting of gay people, that the things I had been experiencing were common, that maybe, just maybe, we didn’t need a white ethnostate.
I don’t want to be dramatic but that accidental click saved my life.
From there it was a road of recovery. I deleted all my old accounts, made new ones, and started to read leftist theory. I found better friends, cut out old people. So now, just about two years later, I’m healing.
I think that’s everything. I probably got some times and dates wrong because I’ve been trying to move on from it. But if you need more info or anything like that, please let me know.
Reblogging for anyone who’s struggling with being an ex-fascist. Feel free to message me as well, I know how scary it can be.
I’m glad you made it out.
I assumed you were a guy until like the third paragraph.
Honestly? When I tell this story to people they get so confused.
“How could you possibly join that movement when you’re everything they hate??”
But the truth is, the alt-right needs people like me.
You can’t talk to people about the 14 words without someone obviously calling you racist. And rightly so. So what facists do is they actively recruit LGBT and POC people, because we are amazing shields.
But dont ever forget that they will be nice to you upfront, but the deeper in you go the clearer their message becomes. At that point though, you’re so full of self hatred that you either agree with them or are too afraid to speak out.
And if they got their way, the shields are the first to go.
Star Trek can make as many new series and movies as they like, and still nothing will ever truly beat the golden awkwardness of this one shining minute of dialogue.
