The question was for left wing women, I already know what you people think.

@Dynamo Frokane

what do you mean, "you people?"

Well it's only recently, like the past year, that I really even looked. A few of the shows actually did good for awhile though.

'member that time Jimmy Kimmel got in trouble for not hating trump enough?

@Penny

Here's a new topic, why are left wing women so uncomfortable when it comes to this part of race relations?

A lot of them cant get over the fact that they 'hate' racism but then they let that same racist mentality rule their dating lives. Everyone else just seems to either accept it or ignore it.

My theory is that it comes down to simple hypocrisy and idealism, they want to preach to other people how they shouldn't judge, but they dont want to a put a quarter of that effort into confronting their own biases, so it leaves them in this awkward position when they have to explain why they don't date asians/indians or whatever.

@Dynamo Frokane

My theory is simpler -- that's not racism, any more than being gay is sexist.

Wow this is eerily similar to that time Obama and Hillary hired those guys from Bengazhi to fake the Angolan Civil War...

@Penny

That was the lizard people.

......unless...... wait, are you saying Obama and Hillary are, themselves, lizard people?

There's quite a few roleplayers-for-hire that were sent as well, unsurprisingly all from out of state.

@The Harbinger of Ferocity

Veritas even got one of Hil-dog's campaign managers to talk about how easy they are to find and hire.

TBF though there are plenty of loonies on the right. I have no doubt that the, you know, actual murderer/domestic terrorist, for instance, is a real cunt. Lots of known-factors were, in fact, present, several of them also real-actual racist dicklickers. So let's not get TOO tinfoil-y. I'm just saying it's worth looking into provocateurs. All the signs are there.

interesting if true: I'm reading (caveat: on that ebil T_D site you all hate) that the guy who organized the whole "hate rally" in Charlottesville, Jason Kessler, is/was/whatever an "Obama/Occupy guy." Soon as he organizes an event, we see a shitload of fresh-out-of-the-box nazi and confederate flags, and people murder people. I have no inkling if that assessment or any implications thereof are true, but... well wouldn't that be interesting? I mean up until now AntiFa has been starting all of the shit, minus that one rando nutjob who tried to assassinate the entire GOP congress at a baseball game.

@mdkWell that part just entails that you have the right to protest and assemble together. It has nothing to do with associating or not associating with people you don't want to. Unless I'm confused on the question somehow...

@POOHEAD189

I might be doing a poor job of presenting the question. It might also be a stupid question. In any case I take your meaning.

Frokane's Mildly Politcal Hangout Thread

It really shouldn't be hard to make those distinctions in the majority of cases.

@Penny

Well sure, but unless we have a guiding principle the distinctions are arbitrary. Simply agreeing that this group or that one is horrible, that's not really enough -- we need distinctions, lines in the sand you cannot cross; else, we're just playing bizzarro-favorites.

I have a clause in my contract which allows for my termination if I act in a way which is inconstant with my organisations values. It is a pretty broad sort of a thing. As a result I don't imagine they would have any problem firing me if I showed up covered in swastikas.

And I mean that's the real-life answer that works pretty well on the whole, which should just about short-circuit the conversation. But the balance of freedoms is a very interesting topic, says this guy -- if we pretended there was no code-of-conduct or contractual obligation on your part, where would you THEN draw the line?

I am even careful when it comes to things like the Women's march which I would very much like to have attended.

Ugh, I know I shouldn't say it, I really shouldn't... uh.... how much do you know about the speakers and organizers? They put a real actual murderer and rapist on stage, and Linda Sarsour is preeeeettty ISIS-y once you get to know her. I only bring it up because you mentioned ISIS in your fireable association list.

Im really not sure how this would play out with an actual federal employee. What would be the legal standing of a State Department employee if they showed up at a pro Nazi rally?

I'm not sure what the rules are for State Department, but I imagine they're similar to those of the DoD. Basically you can believe what you want, you can rally for what you want -- but if you in any way imply, even in a minor sense, that you're endorsing this thing "as a member of the DoD," for example by showing up in uniform -- that's a grievous offense. The principle being that the institution does not take a side. But again, that's DoD, which has all those military-coup-ish implications.
