To me, all this smacks of nikkaz begging White folks to let us "in".

fukk these hipster mags. Only support real nikka shyt and keep it moving.

I thought people would get it , yet 2we're still getting threads made from these sites. Black folk still want to feel "accepted" by these people who already shown them what time it is. When I know if the tables were turned they would be hesistant to support us like that.

Read my article yall.

It did well the last two weeks, but I feel like it could do better. Not for me, but for the issue.

Not to mention I pretty much made myself persona non grata at many of the fragile publications I mentioned
:salute:

good stuff.

This is a good read, but I think there has to be some demand on the customers' part to make this change. What people gotta understand is readers/clicks/views is the only thing these companies care about. Same goes for the subjects of the articles. Chief Keef or Ludacris or Common are not gonna turn down a Complex feature. So either readers stand up to Ludacris or Ludacris stands up to Complex

You know vice founder Gavin McInnes is Alt-Right....right?

New York’s Alt Right (Part I)


Since being kicked out of Vice, the magazine he helped found, Gavin McInnes has been relegated to late-night Fox News punditry and writing for a blog founded by a Golden Dawn-supporting millionaire and formerly edited by Nazi Dork Richard Spencer. He’s an antique of the worst aspects of ’00s hipsters: bad fashion sense, irony covering for insecurity, and deeply reactionary politics.

In the last few months he has compensated for his fall from relevance by starting a personality cult comprised of man-children called the “Proud Boys.” The name plays on the “red pill” concept of convincing impressionable and narcissistic young males that they are somehow victims of feminist, queer, and POC liberation movements. These (mostly) white boys claim that their general deficiencies as human beings are, in fact, indicators of their “alpha” status.

Pitiful as the group is, and small as their numbers are, the Pasty Bootlickers are an experiment in bringing the prevalence of alt-right trolling to the streets. They served as a security force at the “Daddy Will Save Us” art show fiasco, where they smashed the phone of a lone counter protester, and bragged of beating someone up at a previous event. Nonetheless, much of their internal chatter is about encouraging one another to get over their fears of wearing Trump gear in public.

They are a politically diverse group, but have in common a love of Trump, a hatred of immigrants, refugees, and leftists, and a tolerance of neo-Nazism. Their blog hawks Western Chauvinism, anti-Semitism, and Islamophobia on a daily basis.

On election day McInnes hosted a “Trump Victory Party” at the Gaslight Lounge in the Meatpacking district of Manhattan. In attendance were:

Former British Nationalist Party member Jack Buckby, who maintains the Proud Boys blog and FB, and is running for the seat of Jo Cox, the British MP murdered by a neo-Nazi.
The disgraced racist shockjock/convicted girlfriend-beater Anthony Cumia.
Red Ice Radio personality Emily Youcis
Alt-Right comedian Sam Hyde
