Arrogant Ex-Rifle-or-Artilleryman - pretend it's an excerpt, ok?

[ButThreeLeftsDo]

Huh?

[Technocrat]

No worries, the individual in question has been suppressed :)

[tired&retired]

Very well written.

I feel so bad for Joey Gibson of Patriot Prayer — nicest person you will ever meet in all likelihood — ordered to jail by corrupt DA today after bypassing Grand Jury using a legal trick (basically jailing Joey for being a victim! of antifa attacks), while known antifa scum run amuck supported by Portland mayor.

It is far better to hold your cards close and not show your hand until it is absolutely necessary.

Exposing the individual identities is the Oath Keepers can subject them to individual harassment, limit their ability to gain knowledge from the opposition, and potentially cost members their jobs or career advancement.

Your on Your Own,
Oathkeepers.

Just as Good.

Oath Keepers has a zero tolerance policy for white nationalism
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

They bought the Ministry of Propaganda’s line.

If you are white and love America, you are a white nationalist.

“Patriot Prayer is a far-right group that attracts white supremacists and has engaged in violence.”

So utterly ridiculous is this statement from the article I linked. The only possible way to correct the explicit lies in the sentence is to change it to “Patrot Prayer is a ...group...”.

When I attended one of Joey’s rallies I commented to my kids it seemed most like a Protestant religious service and he seemed as a minister. I saw not the slightest sign of “white supremacists”, nor have I ever encountered one in daily life. And if you wanted to see violence or be encouraged to commit violence this was not the place you wanted to be.

[Dalberg-Acton]

Exactly.

[BatGuano]

Good for the Oath Keepers!
Portland, Oregon is such a sh!thole, I would not attend a Sun rise or a Sun set there! Never again to the wilted Rose City.

My take on it as well. I think he explained it as clear as it can be explained. I am White. I love the Nation of America. Hence I am a White Nationalist. To be shunned by Oath Keepers. O.K. by me.

[Dr. Sivana]

When did the term change from "White Supremacist" to "White Nationalist"? I am white. I am also in most ways a "nationalist" in that I prefer the nation-state organization over the globalist or empire approach in the world we live in right now.

Because it is unclear whether nationalist is an object of "white" or part of a longer term, the phrase is hopelessly confusing.

"White Supremacist" is clear those who are "White Supremacists" believe that the white race should be running things. For being white. You could theoretically be a black white supremacist, because the term doesn't explicitly state anything about the race of the person holding the view. I think the expressions were changed on purpose, as Marxists are inherently globalist (The Red Chinese are Marxist heretics). So the term is an attempt to make all nationalism appear to be racist, leaving globalism (for westerners) the alternative.

Christian persecution notching it up a full step in Portland and Multnomah County

[BatGuano]

Portland, Seattle, why go there? “Amuck” is not the word.
I submit the word, “Scumuck,” to combine the crap that floats in those cities.
Amok is the preferred spelling.

[steve86]

Looking it up: about a 50/50 preference split in dictionary and word usage entries. Not worth much of a discussion.

And Joey came to visit my rural community; I avoid Portland and Seattle these days.

[Halgr]

Portland is an ANTIFA HQ....these folks are asking for trouble.

[a fool in paradise]

How many of the 3,000 klansmen still in America are really just FBI agents playing ‘pretend’?

How many of the “unite the right” folks are really Obama voting Lefties doing the ROLCON thing their party encourages them to do?

[freedomjusticeruleoflaw]

I’m white, and can’t change that. I am not a globalist, and won’t change that. By default I’m a white nationalist. Demonize away, I have big shoulders.
