Predictably, racists aren't happy that a white cop didn't get away with murdering an unarmed Black man this one time.



The online angst among white nationalists and other far-right extremists was neck-deep Tuesday following Derek Chauvin’s conviction for the murder of George Floyd.

“God help you if you’re a white male in this anti-white country,” wrote Andrew Torba, founder of the white nationalist-friendly chat site Gab, to his 3.2 million followers.

Many of the reactions were collected by Chuck Tanner at the Institute for Research and Education on Human Rights, who noted that “the response across the far right and white nationalist movement demonstrated its base lack of compassion and lack of mooring in reality.”
.......................

Scott Greer, a speaker at the recent white-nationalist America First PAC convention and a former writer for the Daily Caller, tweeted earlier in the day that “White boy summer starts with Derek Chauvin's acquittal,” but then updated that: “Uhhh... it appears white boy summer has been postponed.”

“Why even remain a cop?” Greer added. “This system hates you and only needs you to enforce mask regulations. Get a job that won’t send you to jail for doing your job.”............................

poor little snowflakes, their racist, murdering hero is now a convicted murderer and headed for prison.

I do hope that he's segregated to keep him alive, I want him to have to think about where he is because he murdered George Floyd.

Andy Torba's response should settle any possible remaining doubts about the real purpose of Gab and the rest of these "free speech" Twitter-alternatives.

Scott Greer's reaction is also hilariously revealing. "Why even remain a cop (when you can't get away with murder, which I believe is a cop's job)?"

Some even make millions for spouting hate. It pays well if you are good enough at being evil.

Hope for these people. If they cannot see the crime chauvin was convicted of there is no hope for them. I am guessing if it was their neck that had a mans knee pressed into it they would see the issue very clearly.

Almost every Fortune 500 CEO and their top executives, almost all Repug Senators and Congresspeople, electoral college and Senate system giving Montana and other white areas much more power per population than other states, white guys losing the popular vote for decades yet still retaining power, gerrymandered districts........

Its easy to see why these white guys feel victimized....give me a dang break.

Some of them even have the word in their group's name. You'd think their in-your-face style would make them visible enough that they could be countered, but they Just. Don't Care. The inmates are gaining ground on their takeover of the asylum.

Alerted on for being an analysis piece rather than late breaking news, and the forum hosts agree. Ok to repost in GD.
