Also, it was originally posted a few weeks ago on a white supremacist site.
Ok, wow, the Trump campaign makes it really hard to give them benefit of the doubt.
Let me guess. We're in a hurry.

They've retweeted things from white supremacist Twitter accounts before. Ones that were obviously neo-Nazi from the name or profile pic, not even ones where you'd have to go and look at older posts to figure it out.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I stopped giving the Trump campaign the benefit of the doubt on anything a while ago. they don't deserve it.

Isn't a high percentage of Trump's retweets from white supremacist sites? I feel like I read that somewhere.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
More-or-less normal day after the 4 day weekend. Felt like a Monday...

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
NPR has a story this afternoon about Trump and white supremacists.
You'd think, even if by some insane chance it was an accident, that realizing you have goals the white supremacists agree with, maybe it's a sign that your goals are BAD.

I suppose one would have to have an awareness of how white supremacists relate to the larger culture for that realization to sink in. Seen through the lens of total narcissism, groups of people agreeing with you probably look right-minded and sensible despite their odd sartorial choices of white robes and hoods.

I saw an article about a white supremacist convention, where all the people there seemed convinced that Trump is really one of them, but he just can't say that stuff openly while he's still campaigning, but as soon as he's elected, he'll acknowledge it. (At least one of them also though that Taylor Swift was a closet white supremacist, and that, after Trump is elected, she's going to marry Trump's son and be the perfect Aryan couple. I'm not sure which son they meant, but he's got three sons, and two of them are already married, and the other is nine years old.)

One of my friends tweeted a joke about a cat that ended up going viral, and her Twitter account is in her real name, which is a pretty clearly Jewish name, and a whole bunch of white supremacists -- several with Twitter handles that reference Trump -- started tweeting all sorts of garbage at her.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Ugh, the internet is the worst.
