    This is your regular reminder that the Proud Boys got their name from Disney’s Aladdin, 2011 stage musical adaptation. A fact that continues to make me laugh.

    Oof. I can’t imagine the self loathing it must take to try to pretend I’m something I’m not. And not only that, betray who I actually am. There was a guy in college who had a confederate flag in his window with the words “heritage, not hate” dudes last name was ramirez. He was clearly Mexican but claimed he was native American and it was like, dude, that would be even worse! The simple fact that you don’t understand the implications… Just wow. I sometimes wonder what ever became of that guy, just out of curiosity.

        Pride for being LGBT isn’t about being proud for being LGBT. It’s about being proud of being yourself despite living in a society that usually tells them not to, or even persecutes them for being themselves. That is an action, an act of rebellion and truth in the face of adversity. That is what they’re proud of.

          Pride for being yourself openly despite others negative pushback and reactions is certainly something I can get behind! Just important to not confuse it with pride for being LGBT+ though

            Maybe you should worry less about providing negative pushback and worry more about minding your own goddamn business you sack of shit. Who somebody else fucks doesn’t affect your life one bit, so maybe just leave them the fuck alone.

          This. Even coming out when people are supportive is rough to say nothing of a huge portion of the world hating you for no reason.

          Also, pride is more about visibility than actual pride. About showing each other that we aren’t alone and that it’s ok to be open.

          It doesn’t take work to be LGBT+, that’s something you’re born as. You could definitely argue that for many people in our current society it takes sacrifice to be openly LGBT+ though

            It certainly does take work to be gay when it’s societally unacceptable. Either you do work to hide it, or you do work to convince yourself that you’re not.

              You’re right. In this society it takes work to be LGBT+. And if you do something based on that, it also takes effort, which can make you proud. But it’s still not a choice to be LGBT+, and in other societies it would not be anything to be proud of, just as you shouldn’t be proud to be white, or straight.

                Lots of people think they should be proud to be white - so much so that we have the very post under which we are discussing this topic where someone is falsely claiming to be such. THAT would have made far more sense to use. It seems to me that you’re telling yourself that you’re making a valid point, but instead you’re merely revealing your own bias.

      This photo doesn’t really help and to be fair most of the pictures I found of him online are shot in such a way that he could look like a person of anglo-heritage with a heavy tan. Adding more stubble, a baseball cap, all black clothes, and sunglasses in 9/10 pictures can do that.

      Here is a picture of him in normal lighting. Also his name, Tarrio, comes mostly from the Spanish Peninsula and he claims to be afro-cuban.

          Hitler had blue eyes, for what it’s worth. He was definitely not tall (173 cm, about average for his place and time) and had brown hair. So he only missed on 2 out of 3 of those criteria.

        Anything mediterranean isn’t white in traditional American Racism™. In fact, even Irish people weren’t considered completely white for the longest time.

          That’s so utterly bizarre that I don’t know how to deal with it, especially the implication that South America then never was colonized by white people.

            The thing about the whole “us vs them” mentality is that you can always go more specific about who “us” is until you’ve got like 5 superior human beings and everyone else is subhuman.

            It never made sense and never will. That’s racism for you.

        Which I find funny as I recall there was some crabbing that he posted that white incels couldn’t get the pussy like he did 'cos he was part black. Then that sprung forth an entire bitchfest that included photos of his crotch and size comparisons.

        It degenerated fairly quickly from that point on…

      Except Hitler was blue-eyed, according to people who met him (including non-Nazis who had no reason to lie about it).
