I can not imagine writing this and not seeing the contradiction, what point does she even think she is making? Like, obviously the KKK is advocating for horrible unjust violence, no one could believe they aren't. To tolerate them because they do it politely, following social norms, but to not tolerate pro-Palestinian activism means you care more about politeness than violence.

To tolerate them because they do it politely, following social norms, but to not tolerate pro-Palestinian activism means you care more about politeness than violence.

That's cause they do! Well, I'm sure they don't see it that way, but to them violence is saying mean things that disturb them during their commute or besmirch the front page of the New York Times. If you do violence quietly and civilly such that they aren't forced to hear about it, you're in the clear.

That plus us-foreign-policy

"The white moderate"

Letter from Birmingham Jail is the most relevant document.

[-] Angel@hexbear.net 80 points 2 years ago

he-admit-it A great example of a scratched liberal moment

"They never openly called for violence"

They're the bloody KKK, they do all the time. BTW you know Gamergaters aren't going to apologize to you, right? Oh yeah, Gamergate was a time when the actual KKK called for violence on YOU specifically, now you're all buddy-buddy with them?

[-] CthulhusIntern@hexbear.net 42 points 2 years ago

She still sometimes says some things about Gamergate, and all of her newfound followers try to politely defend Gamergate to her when she does.

[-] Frank@hexbear.net 21 points 2 years ago

I do not like the revisionist history of gamergate that is emerging.

But also like, when have Pro-Palestine protest movements in the US called for violence?

[-] SoyViking@hexbear.net 36 points 2 years ago

Stone of them have probably made statements in support of liberatory violence against the apartheid regime. That cannot stand as it would disturb the status quo.

[-] DragonBallZinn@hexbear.net 26 points 2 years ago

Don’t be silly, we all know that making the rich feel uncomfortable also counts as violence.

[-] ICEMAN@hexbear.net 21 points 2 years ago

When they insisted on pretending that "From the river to the sea" or any other call for basic human dignity for palestinians was a call for genocide.

[-] Frank@hexbear.net 29 points 2 years ago

Right? Their mere existence is a call for violence, for the establishment of a white supremacist status quo. Ffs Brianna.

[-] Rojo27@hexbear.net 54 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I prefer my calls for violence to be made using dogwhistles and will judge things completely devoid of any contextsmug-explain

[-] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 53 points 2 years ago

Brianna Wu is the most scratched liberal.

The scratch on her head is so deep I can see the bone. It's white and pointed.

Riddle me this, fascist, what the fuck else was the literal klan advocating for?

In a just world, you would get taken out back and shot for saying this. I am shocked that I am saying this, but the gamergaters were right about this individual (derogatory).

[-] Frank@hexbear.net 39 points 2 years ago

Gamergate was never right about anything but with the benefit of hindsight let-them-fight

They were right about her for the absolute worst reasons

Brianna Wu has been locked up in a lab, and she can't leave until she has synthesized the world's purest worst take.

[-] Infamousblt@hexbear.net 43 points 2 years ago

Does...does this person know what the KKK stands for?

[-] Erika3sis@hexbear.net 24 points 2 years ago

Depending on which KKK you're referring to, either Philippine independence from Spain; Cypriot independence from Britain as a socialist state; or the violent maintenance of white supremacy throughout Anglo-America.

Only one of these groups was active in Mississippi in the 1990s.

Well she's a well off white woman from Mississippi so the answer is probably yes, but she's been trained in manners and social violence by some of the best monsters in the world so also no.

Does the KKK stand for anything that is not a direct call to violence?

[-] Lovely_sombrero@hexbear.net 24 points 2 years ago

It does if you are a white person working for a Republican, as Brianna Wu was at the time.

[-] Philosophosphorous@hexbear.net 41 points 2 years ago

it would be illegal and a call to violence and terrorism for me to say 'brianna wu should be hanged'

[-] SadArtemis@hexbear.net 34 points 2 years ago

Personally, I think she should be treated just like the Palestinians are being treated right now. She doesn't see anything wrong with how the Isntrealis and the US govt. are behaving after all, right? Surely everything will be fine and agreeable by her standards?

[-] SoyViking@hexbear.net 23 points 2 years ago

But if you add "... once the correct paperwork has been filed" it suddenly becomes much more acceptable to liberals.

The KKK? As in the Ku Klux Klan? The premier homegrown American as apple pie terrorist organization? Responsible for many murders, torture and terror?

Curious.

The collection of words in this tweet were formulated in a lab to make the worst possible pro Israeli appeal to morality of all time.

[-] anarcho_blinkenist@hexbear.net 31 points 2 years ago

Also the buried admission of "and we let them" among the on-the-face-bullshit nonsense this lady is spewing

[-] HelluvaBottomCarter@hexbear.net 28 points 2 years ago

They didn't have to openly talk about doing violence because they were openly doing violence.
