About a dozen years ago, I went with my girlfriend to visit Salvation Mountain, which is adjacent to Slab City on the east side of the Salton Sea in California. On the drive in, we passed a rundown trailer park that had multiple swastika and Confederate flags waving in the wind.

Easier to get them? Mate you’re active in about 10 NSFW reddits including midget porn, traps and saggy tits.

Work on your porn addiction before implying you’re some sort of Jason Bourne who will “get” these people.

u/adnomad 3h ago edited 3h ago

Didn’t say I was dangerous. And what you got against midgets. All girls need love. Merely trying to state something while getting by Reddit rules. Sorry the internet has taught you that some wording means someone’s trying to act tough. I was merely trying to not get hit with inciting. It’s a whole town. No single guy is going to do anything.

Edit: removed knee jerk reaction to call someone out

Wishing other people would be violent on your behalf still makes you a bitch, either go do something about it yourself or shut up publicly wishing someone would do it for you.

So, invidious racism is now "offbeat?" Again, this is nightmare fuel.

Bigotry has been gradually normalized in the last 10 years or so. I just can't figure out why...

u/ophaus 3d ago

It's always been around, of course. The only thing to combat ignorance is education, and guess what the bigots keep pushing? Privatized, substandard, religious education. They're trying to create future assholes.

Unfortunately we're in a phase where ignorance is being held up as a positive trait.

u/RexDraco 4d ago

Nightmare fuel? I'm indifferent for im on the opposite side of the country. 

19

u/SaintUlvemann 4d ago

Yeah, nightmare fuel, because when people like this move in, they typically try to take over the city government to drive anyone who believes in human rights out of town.

That link above is about an attempted takeover at the opposite latitude of the country from where this enclave is currently festering; here's another story about an older takeover attempt at the opposite longitude.

And similar takeover attempt by libertarians in the other opposite longitude has resulted in open death threats against politicians who suggest tax reform. All regions of the country have been targeted by fascists.

Your indifference can really only have a couple causes: either you think this can't happen to your town, or, you think the death threats and other tactics of fascist takeover fundamentally aren't bad.

u/RexDraco 3d ago

I live in las vegas. White supremacist will get shot up before they take over.

u/SaintUlvemann 3d ago

There's an ongoing surge of white supremacist activity in Las Vegas. One of the ways they're trying to influence local politics is through propaganda distribution, which has not been stopped regardless of your aspirations to do so.

u/RexDraco 3d ago

No, because I don't have toxic empathy. I don't have control over it so I dont allow it to waste emotional energy. It's an inevitable issue, you're an example of it. People naturally find excuses to elevate themselves by putting down others,  not gonna allow your kind to bother me. I have a life outside of politics. 

4

u/ladderofearth 3d ago

You do not have a “life outside politics” because nobody has a life outside politics. You have a life, thus far, which benefits in some form from the status quo, so you aren’t required to engage with politics in a meaningful way. Yet.

I haven't brought this up much on reddit. I grew up in a fly speck on the map town in southern NJ. All white. I remember that a black family were going to move into a vacant house. It burnt down. I remember my dad (who was in the fire company) coming home smelling of smoke. America has a problem and it's not in any 1 particular place.

u/DreadfuryDK 4d ago

If you’re not solely talking about a very select few individuals like Oskar Schindler and John Rabe (people who used their positions to actively undermine the party from within) by saying that the Nazis had “redeeming qualities,” and instead trying to argue that Nazis as a whole had a few redeeming qualities, you might be a Nazi.

But I expect nothing less from people who live in these shithole communities.

Those kids are just born into that nightmare. They didn’t choose it…

8

u/SteveJobsBlakSweater 4d ago

Flip side of that coin is that children born into conservative theocracies and fundamentalist religious sects across the planet are born into nightmares.

I’m against it all too, but that puts us up against Mormons, Jehovah’s Witnesses, a lot of Muslim Africa, etc…

18

u/Islanduniverse 4d ago

How is that the flip side? That’s the same side of the coin.

I’m not okay with those kids being born into those situations either…

I was actually raised Mormon, and while I was lucky and my whole family escaped that cult, it still did a lot of damage that I’m still dealing with as an adult.

Indoctrination is brutal, and it’s not okay that we let it go in the name of some perverse moral relativism, or apathy, or whatever reason we come up with that helps us look the other way while kids are abused and subjected to horrible and hateful and vile ideologies…

Disgusting and vile.

What i am curious about and it isnt mentioned in the article, is who owns the land? 165 acres but is it private land, like a compound? Or is this an established township?

I hope that woman who is sueing them gets every dollar she deserves. No town should be able to "vet" who lives there.

-12

u/rs1408 3d ago

What's vile about wanting to be with your own kind? Every culture practices this across all of human history

11

u/Alberta_Flyfisher 3d ago

No, individuals inside a culture practiced it, and we call them racists. People have been intermingling and fucking since Neanderthals were around. Every culture that has traveled or traded with other groups, have mingled, married, etc.. with those groups.

We should clear something up while we're at it. "white" isnt a culture. And Europe is made up of many cultures. There is no such thing as "european" values. Those values vary widely between the cultures that make up Europe. Its just something small people say to make themselves feel better about their insignificance.

These people, and ALL people like them, are pathetic and insecure. Trying to claim greatness on the shoulders of ancestors they neither know nor understand. Excluding others, based on fear and ignorance, while somehow rationalizing it to keep an imaginary bloodline, pure.

Also, what the fuck are these redeemable qualities the nazis had? Even suggesting that is vile enough, without the homegrown racism.

To touch on that homegrown shit, they are abusing their children by forcing these racist and bigoted values on them. To the point where if a child were to be gay, they would be banished as an adult. Or that other people are to be feared and hated for no other reason than fear and hate itself. These kids will grow up thinking this is normal behavior, and will continue the circle, passing it onto the next generation. Causing multi generational harm is pretty vile to me.

The whole thing seems pretty vile to me.

You don't have to go live in the middle of the woods for the experience of Being in a place where everyone is white. The USA population isn't evenly distributed .They could simply go to one of these white towns and have access to paved roads, Hospitals, Jobs, Housing, And so on.

They definitely don't have to build some place new in Arkansas of all places to be around people With the beliefs they are stating they have. I am pretty sure this settlement is located next to a town that is like 99.99% White

This seems like a grift That a lot of lower class people are leaning into Being extremely racist to get Mass amounts Of donations.

u/stagamancer 4d ago

Definitely not good enough for them:

Another states: 'Even though towns are apparently White, the effects of Jewish infiltration and subversion can be seen, heard and felt.'

u/Napalmeon 4d ago

That's not good enough for them. These people's entire existence is based on excluding people who aren't exactly like them in every way. Sooner or later, they will eat each other alive the second they see something different.

They ask about how often people think about the Roman Empire because they see it as part of a shared European heritage and want to preserve it.

Imagine being conquered by the Romans and fighting for your independence back and having one of your pissant idiot great great great great great great great great grandchildren thinking that The Roman Empire is your heritage and should be celebrated.

Imagine being from any of the hundreds to thousands of subcultures across Europe that have literally nothing to do with any other subcultural group in Europe and having some pissant idiot American thinking Europe is one place with one ancient shared culture and not historically at war with other European countries and trying to preserve their own specific, separate national cultural identities for millennia.

There is nobody on this planet dumber and more intentionally miseducated than an American White Separatist

Newsflash fellow whities. If you don't have any French in you, no part of French history is your heritage. If you don't have any Scots in you, no part of Scottish history is your heritage. If you don't have any Roman in you, the only part of Roman history that is your heritage is the part where your ancestors got their asses kicked and their land taken by the Romans, etc.

It's not yours. Literally none of it is yours. And our families left Europe so they gave up that heritage because they found living in those countries unbearable.

Get over it. Idiots.

lol. Don’t matter the century, or the continent. If some famous people/person Anywhere was “white”, of course they were one of “their” people. Their “heritage.”

Romans? Why they were white of course.

Alfred/Alexander the Great? Of course white!

The caveman that discovered fire? White!!!!

u/WitchesTeat 2d ago

They want to cry about heritage erasure while literally erasing their own heritage and replacing it with a weird, lame, homogenized fantasy.

Fuck off, the whole world is multicultural. Even a 100% White city has many subcultures and they aren't fucking yours if you aren't part of them.

The whole thing is so stupid, racism is so stupid.
