Lynching LOL!!!

[pitbullgirl1965]

Edited to add: if I do post a diary about this on the Daily Kos, it will NOT be naming names, or this site.

It'll be generic and vetted by admin.

Why write one at all? Revenge? Anger? No: Because too many people think we live in a post racial society.


Yep you read that right. It was regarding a girl getting rape and death threats whose last name is Lynch.
Here is the text if you don't want to click.

Fourth My respone

Aren't you classy?

It's nice to know you thinking lynching is something to joke about.

#strangefruit

This also applies to Jimmyjoebob and joncryer.

this isn't twitter

FYI

Me
No kidding

I thought you'd maybe look up what strange fruit is, instead of me linking it. It's graphic, but anyone who jokes about lynching wouldn't really care amiright?

His response to me
snooper2
sounds stupid, now, SUPERFRUIT is awesome

it's a YouTube channel by two members of the awesome band that is Pentatonix
Check this GREATNESS out! (by the way, you did catch that her last name was Lynch right? LOL )

Bolded mine.

I am thinking about posting a diary on the Daily Kos about this.


I never, ever expected to see a joke like this or anti choice rhetoric on here. These men aren't progressives: they're Libertarians.

1. I have a pretty dark sense of humor but those jokes are in poor taste

[pitbullgirl1965]

3. Yes, I did too, but some things are so evil it should never be mocked.

Unless of course you approve of it.

Trigger warning!!!!!!!!:

black people weren't just hung: sometimes they burned them alive, gutted them ( a pregnant woman from one account had her 6 month old baby ripped out. Yes she was alive too when they did it.) castrated men, skinned them alive on and on..
White people would make it a family affair. Picnics, men women children et al.
Strange fruit refers lynch victims hanging in the trees.

I had to stop reading about it because it is so horrifying.

[Arcanetrance]

4. That little paragraph really is about all i can take

I do sometimes wonder about the people who post here

[pitbullgirl1965]

5. I know I'm sorry

I don't even have words for how ugly it is. I force myself to read these things and (view the pictures)
because we need to know the real history of America.

And of course there have been other atrocities just as bad against Native Americans et al.

[Arcanetrance]

6. Don't apologize these are things that need to be seen and read in order to keep our world in context

[pitbullgirl1965]

7. Thank you. n/t

2. but it is not white men so we are cool.... right? change definition of lynching and then it is fun

attitude here

8. I really do have all the right people on ignore.

What pigs. And I don't care if a jury hides this - they'll see my post anyway. EVERYONE reads hidden posts. So fuck it.

PS - I got your reference to hidden fruit. It's a shame that so many people don't get it, but would instead choose to ridicule that which they don't understand.

[pitbullgirl1965]

9. I know, I know.

No he may have gotten it, and chose to make fun of it.
I'm waiting to hear from Admin then I'm leaving. ( It's ridiculous when people threaten to leave, write a Good Bye Cruel World! post and they still hang around.)
I just wanted to clear that up.
Also, I wanted to post this before I left, just b/c it was so over the top.

President Obama has been threatened with lynching so you'd think it would be verboten to joke about it.

[Sheldon Cooper]

10. You're not going to hear from Admin.

He skipped your question but answered everyone else's, so that should tell you something. You're not the first one that's happened to, either.

[pitbullgirl1965]

12. I was semi expecting that. I messaged the Admins @ the Daily Kos

to see if it's appropriate to post a diary regarding this. Are you a member there?

[Sheldon Cooper]

13. I am not a member of Kos.

I think I'll look into it, though. It might be nice to be around men who don't feel the need to defend to the death their right to jack off to absolutely any disgusting thing they like.

[pitbullgirl1965]

14. If I *do* write it I'm not naming names or places

It'll be generic as possible, with the intention of showing people that we do not live in a post racial society

It's a sane site. Not perfect, but a great place nonetheless

[ismnotwasm]

11. Fuck

Oh, I knew about the Libertarian infestation, they're very obvious, but that is racist bullshit. I get update I use FB from DalyKos, but haven't posted there.
