I figured they'd go there. Honesty isn't really their thing.

Can't wait to see what they say when anyone dares to challenge the renaming of Tulane University

Dicky Spencer was out there earlier. Reasonable to assume that some other white nationalists were dispersed amongst the crowd of non-WN garden variety idiots.

You've got a white nationalist with a bunch of white dudes protecting a fricking statue of Lee with LITERAL torches and you fail to grasp how this might not be a good look?

Kindly frick off.

I mean... if you squint your eyes really hard... the statue does kinda look like a giant KKK ghost hovering in the background of that pic.

'White Nationalist'

Such a slippery concept.

No one seems to know what it means.

The protesters did a pretty good job or writing the story themselves. Sure didn't help that they invited Mr. Spencer.

Funny. We just did a thread on it. It has a specific connotation. You not knowing (well pretending not to know) doesn't speak for the rest of us.

Except that black people who have a functioning brain and an understanding of history have been protesting against removing them as well. That will never make the fake news though.

Ah yes, in droves. What percentage of the resistance do you think they represent? I'm sure you'll have no trouble finding scads of examples.

Makes zero sense but ok. Bring some facts or shut the frick up, yes that's a challenge and no you can't.
