VOAT Containment Megathread of Trash People for Trash People

Remember when I mentioned Teen Vogue earlier this week?

Teen Vogue has been killing it recently. Forget WaPo and NYT, everybody needs a TV sub.

Thread locked way too soon, no fun allowed

[clothedmacuser]

benji, will you please ask these people where they are seeing this narrative that liberals are blaming black people for Trump's victory?

Trump is simply engaging in a centuries old American time honored past time of blaming blacks, it's as American as July 4th really. Or in this case he's thanking then but the left will start the blaming soon enough.

Hee. He's not doing anything that so many so-called-liberals aren't doing right now, and what white America has done for centuries. Throwing any blame that can be mustered at the blacks to reignite that old status quo, and shift the blame to adjacent targets. Never mind the show of numbers that came to oppose him. Nope. It wasn't white Americans that didn't show up and to keep fascism in check. It's always anyone and everyone else.
Same people that aren't going to do a damned thing about the militarization of the police forces across the country, or lift a finger to preserve the national reserves.

Operation Blame the Darkies is in full swing. Blacks were the front line of defense as per usual. The numbers were there. In particular black women put in the work. This scapegoating bs is not just sad, it was completely predictable.

Yup. It's always fine to blame black people; it's so normalized because it's part of America. Now the moment you question/blame the white vote or even suggest that racism/sexism/Islamphobia/homophobia were huge reasons Trump won…you'll get essays from people talking about empathising and reaching across the isle, seeing things from their perspective and to get off our high horse, coming together as one.

Slayven of course with the insight.

Do hurt them with the truth

Almost too much truth

Thank god we have to slayven add that.  He thinks so critically and has such original thoughts.



I read liberal news pretty much exclusively and I'm not seeing, "It's the fault of black people that Trump is president."  Not even on The Root are they suggesting that this narrative is being pushed.  What the hell are these posters seeing that I am not.  What liberals are blaming blacks for Trump?

Stop Blaming Black Folks For Trump’s Win
[Opinion] Despite an overwhelming number of white voters supporting Donald Trump, African-Americans are being blamed for his win. This writer sets the record straight

[Great Rumbler]

The only blame I've seen being thrown around is going towards the GOP for all the ridiculous voter ID laws that got pushed through over the past couple of years.

You say that now but think how much worse the voter fraud would have been without those laws protecting our election.

[clothedmacuser]

Ebony, of course.  I forgot that was a thing.  Thanks for that.


And do you really think RT does some good reporting besides the propaganda stuff?  I've never read them before but now I'm thinking of checking them out.

[benjipwns]

I never said reporting, I made sure to say interviews and guests/roundtables.

They simply have on people who wouldn't get a regular audience elsewhere. And I don't mean Gary Johnson and Jill Stein, though those (and their lesser party foes) of course are two prominent examples. But writers for more out of the mainstream magazines and such.

Democracy Now! has had essentially all the same views (and guests) as RT for years but nobody seems to mind them much.

RT has picked up the propaganda in recent years compared to say 2010 when I don't think the homeland was paying as much attention to the US broadcasts. All those anchors quit over it rather publicly.

But mainly I was arguing against shooting the messenger and destroying the message without ever knowing what even the headline was. That was how al Jazeera was treated for years.

This has been a thing for far too long with many sources.

[benjipwns]

It was admittingly a bad case to make the point with. "Russia Today says Samantha Bee segment about Russian hoaxers was hoax." That part is totally on me.

Oh good. Then Slayven gets modded.

That's silly he'll never help them get the Breitbart money.

[benjipwns]

Who the hell even unbanned you?

I was only unbanned early for whatever reason probably operator/modbot error, it wasn't a perma in the first place. Or even a perm warning, and was only as long as it was because it was like the day after the election or whatever.

When Jefferson spoke of the Tree of Liberty needing to be refreshed periodically with the blood of patriots and tyrants he wasn't only talking about civil disobedience, he was talking about revolution.

We went 71 years the first time before the Tree of Liberty was refreshed. Its been 156 years since then, too long an interval it seems.

Welp, they've become the Tea Party officially I guess.

Okay, so actual state-sanctioned propaganda. Good stuff. Good stuff. I mean, Bannon is a perfect fit.

Evilore, you gonna come say that we need to not overreact to this topic, too? I love what you made of this forum, boss, but the outcome here seems pretty fucking obvious and you can't deny where this one is headed.

Excuse me?

I just found out Trump will be in command of a giant militia with planes, boats and hundreds of thousands too ! Is there any end to this madness ?

There's a difference between "America is great" propoganda, and "these American citizens are dangerous and this foreign power is amazing" rhetoric

But without proper market penetration you have no real chance at brand building and expanding the franchise.
But then, I guess I can't expect GAFers to understand much about penetration though...

Revenue should probably be adjusted by review scores to properly account for the value of each dollar.

China gotta be shook at this point. We should park a carrier fleet in international waters and wave at the next Chinese bomber that flies overhead. They need reminding who has the deepwater Navy round these parts.

[Nola]

Excuse me?

I cast no shade.

Evilore, your recent posts in political topics look to make us see reality and come together as one, and not fall into hyperbole regarding the terrible things that may come.

But what I'm saying is you cannot refute any comments as to how horrible this may be. It is a bottomless well of terrible garbage, of state-endorsed trash views.There is no positive outlook as it comes to state-sanctioned televised propaganda, no upside to this; no way of saying "but if we just love and/or tolerate each other" here. This is going to be a net negative for the country and probably the western world as a whole.

That's all.

LOL.

This IMO is why you don't cull out all your dissenting POV posters for wrong-think.....Or allow your mods to do it. This is the sort of shit that often gets somewhat self-policed when you have opposing viewpoints lurking around but just invites a compounding of ignorances and dialing everything to a 10 when you don't.

....Benji and Numbers can't do it all.

[Shuri]

Yeaaaah that video of Assad supporters torturing and executing syrian civilians that was posted in the "Battle of Allepo" thread............

 

I wish I could unsee those images and remove the sounds of the cries of pain out of my head.

I honestly didn't think NeoGAF could go any more off the deep end, after the post-election meltdown.

The place is actually radical now. EviLore fucking knows it too.

 

[railGUN]

My African American History professor told me that I will never graduate from college because I told him I could piece together my essay the day before the due date.

He then pointed at his degrees and told me I would "never have these."

I'm not even mad lol.

Now, I'm just thinking about how big of a cunt you have to be to say that to a student.

Well, look in the mirror. You see how big of a cunt you are for saying you could piece together your essay the day before the due date? That's how big.

You're not even mad, you just need ass-pats from your cyber crew on NeoGAF.

TRUMP INSIDE TRADING
*goes to the tweet*

You're right in that someone sold 669 shares at 8:08:17 at $260, but that's a pretty small sum of money

The volume is relevant because Lockheed is a stock that is consistently traded, so selling stock does not a conspiracy make

As Newsweek is hinting at a new article (apparently suggesting Turkey is using Trump holdings in their country to pressure him) :

Obviously the best time to investigate and report on a Presidential candidate is after they've been elected. Unless it involves emails, but that goes without saying.
