    you're thinking they would have burned the house down instead of leaving such a polite note?

    Apologist.

    Yeah I bet black people who went around in the South and ran into racist violence in the 1950s were just asking for it, weren't they? They should have been smarter.

    Those women who wear revealing cloths in Europe who get raped and groped by refugees should have also known better. They chose to dress that way and probably even knew what they would get. They should be smarter.

    There is a website called "Unicorn Riot" that ripped posts from a bunch of crypto-Nazi discord servers right after the Charlottesville murder. One of the big tactics you see suggested repeatedly is to put on a MAGA hat and start a fight with a liberal and get it fillmed to get the "alt-light" and mainstream conservatives to "swallow the red pill".

    A: that website doesn't sound credible and looks super politically charged. B: I haven't seen this proven in a legit way.

    Sounds like something to discredit victims of political violence. It is possible though, but really not going to trust that source. They could have sock puppeted or just made up the info entirely.

    Just want to make sure of my facts. It was you that was still convinced that Elizabeth Warren had a "little black sambo" cookie jar, right?

    The blurriness of the original video makes it hard to say what that was ultimately. However, that is not the topic. You are pulling info from a group that has a clear bias. So maybe you can link us the story and we can see it at least?

    It's not a story. It's a search engine of posts from discord servers. No interpretation involved. Horse's mouth, and all that. You can go to "discord leaks" and search "MAGA hat" though you'll have to wade through a bunch of false positives.

    Alternately when I'm not driving in town in a few hours I'll get on my desktop where it is easier to do a database search and pull a few examples.

    OK fair enough. I am actually curious to see more about this. Yeah I don't discount such assholes existing. Very much likely actually because there are some real bad people on the far right.

    I mean, I don't get why MAGA hat wearers are so confused. MAGA is about getting rid of brown people, so if you wear that hat, yeah, people who like brown people aren't going to like you.

    I mean, at least MAGA hat wearers can just take off their hat. It's not like a religious requirement for them, and it's not the color of their skin. So I don't feel a whole lot of sympathy.

    If you want to wear racism on your forehead go ahead, but don't whine about people judging you for it.

    Donald Trump's policies are dog whistles against minorities

    let's review Trump's MAGA:

    White nationalism
    1. Accepts endorsements from hate groups
    2. Retweets posts from hate groups
    3. Use white nationalist talking points word for word
    4. Defends white nationalism from the left

    African Americans
    1. Blame blacks for being a criminal mind culture more likely to commit violent crime
    2. Cut benefits and programs to minorities (namely blacks)

    Mexicans
    1. Labels Mexicans as drug users more likely to belong to gangs
    2. Fabricates crisis at the border when Mexicans are net net leaving the US
    3. Denies dreamers
    4. Tars immigrants from Mexico even though both illegal and legal immigrants are less likely to commit a crime than citizens
    5. BUILD THAT WALL

    Muslims
    1. Muslim ban
    2. Fear around extreme vetting even though extreme vetting was the norm before he became president
    3. Attacks on Muslim countries and Islamic culture
    4. Believing that Obama was a Muslim

    Others
    1. Limiting legal immigration from countries like India and other non-European countries


    So yes, Trump has a discriminatory agenda and given that MAGA is what encapsulates his policy against minorities, it's fair to say that MAGA hats are a symbol of discrimination and attacks on the brown people.

    The number of factual inaccuracies you post is amazing. You must spend 99% of your time in an echo chamber.

    Your ad hominem attack demonstrates that you have lost the debate and can not address the content of my post. I'm sorry you are angry and feel the need to lash out. I hope you find peace in your life.
