I officially, by this internet message, demand that Neil De Grasse Tyson denounces white supremacy. With no official statement of his part within 72h, I will be left to assume he secretly endorses those horrible ideas.

That's been a thing for a while. I think stormfronters are actually more into new wave and really shitty industrial folk, but Taylor Swift pics with Mein Kampf quotes over them have floated around for a couple years now

This is just weird, but kinda makes sense in a world where a corporate as fuck movie like Wonder Woman is seen as a feminist icon.
We're in a time where defending corporations is somehow cool.

When every copy/paste marvel, star wars, and whatever fuck else expanded universe that without fail gets fresh ratings on that ridiculous aggregate site RottenTomatoes is defended to the death from these kids that think they're "woke" you know we are reaching critical mass.

Pretend "critics" don't even write movie reviews anymore. They write a one paragraph or so summary followed by a score.

That blog post about Taylor Swift is really something...

http://popfront.us/2017/09/swiftly-to-the-alt-right-taylor-subtly-get-the-lower-case-kkk-in-formation/

Quote
But the dog whistles to white supremacy in the lyrics of her latest single are not the first time that some have connected the (subtle) dots.

Quote
The song “Look What you made Me Do” evidently speaks to the lower case kkk

Quote
Later in the song, there is another telling line: “I don’t like your kingdom keys. They once belonged to me. You asked me for a place to sleep. Locked me out and threw a feast (what?).” These lyrics are the most explicit in speaking to white anger and affirming white supremacy.

Quote
It is hard to believe that Taylor had no idea that the lyrics of her latest single read like a defense of white privilege and white anger

Quote
So Taylor’s silence is not innocent, it is calculated

Quote
Swift is not one for politics. She did not endorse Hillary Clinton until November 8th, 2016 on the eve of the election.
(...)
When Katy Perry, Lady Gaga, and Beyonce openly campaigned for Hillary Clinton, Taylor’s political silence appeared to be a rejection of her peers’ support of the inclusive Democrat platform. And when one of the most popular female artists in the world declines to join the many in her field in voicing for progressive politics, it could well be construed as her lending support to the voices rising against embracing diversity and inclusion emblematic of Trump supporters.

:mindblown

It's silly to threaten legal action but I didn't expect the blog "analysis"  to be so adamant and crass about those claims.

She's been getting flack for the point in the last paragraph a lot lately, but honestly, given her lyrics, the last thing on earth I want is Taylor Swifts political hot takes. Jack Remington's whole posting career here is already the political equivalent of a whiny Taylor Swift song about the latest celebridude's not dating anymore

I don't know if it is "clickbait" (I've read sincere analysis equally bad or worse in the past, Marxist hacks routinely can churn that stuff out without breaking a sweat) and I don't think it makes a difference really in that case.

You were serious with the Taylor Swift stuff?

Taylor Swift is indeed alt-right. I normally use my left but when it comes to Taylor Swift, I alternate to my right as well.  :phil

People seem awfully invested in making Taylor look like a bad person.

This is of course after the witch hunters got BTFO demanding she just denounce white supremacy already without reading the statement entirely and missing this bit.
https://www.resetera.com/posts/614524/
Quote
The notion that Ms. Swift supports white supremacy is utterly fabricated and a reprehensible falsehood, and it attempts to portray Ms. Swift in a false light. Let this letter stand as a yet another unequivocal denouncement by Ms. Swift of white supremacy and the alt-right.
To which The Addler responded.
Quote
Wasn't in the post you made that I responded to.

Gee whiz, you mean after you realized she did say it you barely acknowledge it and it still isn’t enough? Shocking.  :doge

One thing I have to say in Reeee's favor is that their moderation team seems way more level headed than Besada and co. Like they just locked that thread because it's nonsense, I have a feeling it would have played out differently on old-GAF.

She has not. Her silence speaks far more than evidence ever could.

Well I think everyone agrees that functionally and aesthetically it's a much better forum. I haven't made a single post there because quoting everyone in the thread and saying I don't fucking care what you think is probably the best way to get a 6 minute ban.

It also surprises me that you have a spectrum of mods from lowest of low effort posters like Slayven and Bronson to sea lions like Morrigan who won't shut up. We'll see in a year who's licking who's unassumed genitalia for the void left by angry black man.

That said, the lack of raving cult personalities (Bobby emoji is gone) or a general all powerful figure head benefits the community in the long run.

Other than that, yeah, Gaf as usual.

I just wished someone would have made Mess a mod. That guy is two left swipes away from Buffalo Billing the girl that makes popcorn at the movie theater.

There's some sad as fuck mentality shit going on here.

Rushing to reserve the privilege to create an "OT" thread for a game. Doing some free work to advertise for a corporation lol

"Believe women. Believe the victims.". I think that saying is offensively sexist as fuck. It makes it seems like an unspoken designation that women are automatically less powerful and needs protection. I get that there's problems with women not able to speak out against their abusers. But that saying makes it seem that it should be default behavior to automatically believe them just based on their gender and role in a case. Which defeats the purpose of due process. Just in case someone wants to jump at me for being sexist or whatever, I respect them enough to acknowledge that they are also capable of being the aggressor.
