Unite the Right 2 rally 8/12 Wash DC

I think elements of the alt-right have figured out that Charlottesville hurt them rather badly & that the message can be better controlled on the internet than in person. So they try to discourage such events & discredit the organizers to better maintain the camouflage. You know- poor oppressed white boys vs the real racists, or something.

I sense a bit of a retreat back into the fucking holes where they belong.

What's funny is that Kessler's story is virtually identical to GamerGate kids stories.

What started as resentment for hiring practices that hired a woman over him, slowly morphed from basic misogyny into into full fledged racism.

Yes, Kessler used to be on the left side of politics when he was younger. But what started as a case of resentment driven misogyny became a bigotry for anything he felt held "special" or "protected" status. He fell head first down the racist, anti-semitic conspiratard rabbit hole while trying to feed his new found misogyny.

I've seen a LOT of this from the gamergate and Jordan Peterson crowd too.
 
But he explicitly says its just about promoting white people, nothing against people who aren't white. Accusing them of racism is wrong. That's just tearing down without building up, it so negative. This is a positive celebration of white, kinda like Sound of Music but with swastikas!

Hopefully the people who come out to protest do so with mockery, silliness.. Not violence. These idiots are desperate to be taken seriously. Don't. Get Taco trucks, vegan bratwurst. Get the raging queen commandos out with cross-dressing Hitler cosplay. Violence by these so called antifas wouldn't scare them. Violence is what they want. It only takes a few black masked ninja's to allow the this narrative of oppression to continue They would like nothing better than masked people attacking them. Mockery is what the deserve. Being mocked by Ru Paul wannabes in SS drag? They might bail.

A full-on performance of Springtime for Hitler would be a great counter demonstration, but I'm afraid some of the Whites' Rightists wouldn't realize it was a parody.
 
Violent protestors should be immediately shut down by fellow protestors. Only fascists benefit from violence.

That's what's so disheartening about what's going on. I work to not feed resentment and regrets in my life because that is a sure fire way to embrace hate, victimhood and just an all around ugly spirit. I keep saying it because it's true, I am heartbroken by it... and very angry.

This Conspiracy/Trump Era is so accommodating and such a Siren's call to the worst in people. I'm not a bothsiders kind of person but at the risk of sounding like it I have no tolerance for it in anyone. Of course I have only my own gauge to call upon so my glasses may be a bit rose colored looking upon progressives. I judge people by their character. If it's disgusting, I'm disgusted.

I'm well aware that I come across hard left and I am but I honestly do miss the days of being able to respect a conservative even as I disagree with them. Agree to disagree has become a joke and nearly impossible with this new flavor of right. I am also well aware that I come across as very angry because I am but it's not about fundamental disagreements (those are difficult enough on their own) it's how low the right has stooped to fight tooth and nail to hold on to something that doesn't even exist in America and can't. Women are not going to go backwards. Minorities are not going to go backwards. Homosexuals are not going to go backwards. The Environment can't afford to go backwards.

And so, the "party" works (with their fringe group support) to crush them, debase them, degrade them and make them feel helpless and/or overwhelmed in a desperate move to get leverage. They want that leverage to make all their fears and insecurities go away. It won't work... because they're feeding the worst parts of themselves and that hunger can never be satiated. Where that "party" is headed it's absolutely toward Handmaid's Tale, segregation then racial cleansing, reinstating slavery. America will not stand for it. It can't, it doesn't even know how to any more in fact I don't believe the majority of the Trumpverts/supremacists have the stomach for it... But they're ignoring that because they're having fun causing as much damage as possible while they figure it out. They are giving so much power and energy to the ugliest parts of themselves because somehow individual Americans have become so entitled they believe their individual problems are unique and should be treated as such but because they live among other humans the emphasis on it can never be what they think they want it to be. Supremacists and Trumpers share in their need to indulge themselves at others expense. ...

Ok I'm finished ranting. I know I could go on and on but I think you get the gist... I'm agreeing with you.

Says the guy that posts every single little tidbit of shit he reads and rails on and on about it in a drama filled frenzy. You're giving me an actual belly laugh this morning comrade holier-than-thou.

The rally has been organized by Jason Kessler, who was an Occupy Wall St. activist and actually functioned as an on-site correspondent for CNN. He is also an 0bama supporter. His motives are highly questionable and in fact, he is widely being suspected of being a progressive plant. The word, it's out.

It's been said that politics is a dirty business. This is a prime example and Alinsky would be very proud.

But, don't let me stop you guys from slapping your boners around in anticipation of a bit of the old ultra-violence.

Heh. There were a couple of dozen white rights victims & thousands of counter protesters.
So oppressed! Persecuted! Skeered to show up!

The rest seem to have crawled back under their rocks & into their holes, never a bad thing.

I think that was bound to happen. The last thing they want is people paying close attention to them and putting their real identities out there. There is a Canadian web site that outs Canadian Neo-Nazis. It seems to make it much easier for the site when the Neo-Nazis appear in public.

The mighty whitey rally part 1 gave them a good opportunity to do so and they used it. Unfortunately for the Nazis once employers etc. become aware of their far right leanings it can cause them serious problems. So it's time for them to hide behind their computer screens again. While spewing white hate, misogyny etc. All of the things that make them look like well rounded individuals.
