Anti-Trump groups will hold Electoral College protests in all 50 states on Dec. 19

  • Hoping to stop Donald Trump from becoming president, a coalition of progressive groups are organizing protests in all 50 states on Monday.
  • They’re hoping to convince enough Electoral College members to reject Trump.
  • “We the people will come together at every state capital across the United States to call on the electors of the Electoral College to listen to the voice of the people and refuse to cast their ballots for Donald Trump,” the December 19 Coalition, which is organizing the protests, wrote on its website.

WATCH THIS: MAN SHUTS DOWN ANTISEMITIC WHITE POWER PREACHER

One of my friends in the Boston area took this video and gave me permission to post it. She writes: “ I stood there for twenty minutes, easily. Hitler Youth kept trying to preach about “the evils of the Jews” and the big guy barely let him get a word in edgewise. At one point, the big guy yelled, “I will be here ALL DAY” and the crowd cheered.”

I promise this will be the best thing you see today.

Where’s a goddamn bullhorn when you need it?

wow that preacher is probably shitting his pants low key with some big ass biker that close to his face 

Caption for those who need it– the guy in the suit is saying shit like “all races must serve us as put here by God” and a lot of racist/anti Semitic drivel.

Every time he opens his mouth to speak though, the biker yells “AHHHHHHH!!!” Until the man in the suit shuts up again. When the man in the suit takes a breath and opens his mouth, the biker doesn’t even let him get started and just screams “AHHHHH”…. This happens a few times.

The guy in the suit plows ahead but the biker screams and says “No no no no!!!”

I love biker dude

Make racists afraid again.

Um, sorry, but the guy in the suit deserves to speak his opinions. How’d you like to get screamed at everything time you spoke about what you are passionate about? I’m not saying I agree with his opinion, but that doesn’t make shutting him down like this right. Freedom of Speech. Just agree to disagree and walk away.

1) Freedom of Speech means you have the right to speak your mind without being punished or censored by the government. It does not mean other people have to listen to you, and it does not mean they can’t yell over you if you’re saying something disgusting and inflammatory. The Biker Dude has just as much right to do what he’s doing as the Neo-Nazi. Nobody’s right is being infringed upon here.

2) The guy is “passionate about” hating and inciting violence against Jews. I’m passionate about information literacy, candle-making, and giving snuggles to my pet rabbit. There’s a fucking difference, there. 

3) “Agree to disagree” is something you say when two people can’t come to a consensus over whether or not The Empire Strikes Back is the best Star Wars movie. It’s not something you say when one person is Jewish and the other person believes Jews are a evil satanic cabal trying to enslave the white race who must be stopped at all costs. That’s not an “agree to disagree” topic. We don’t “agree to disagree” over the issue of whether or not Jews are people. We don’t “agree to disagree” over whether or not black people, immigrants, Muslims, LGBTQ folks, etc. are deserving of basic human rights. These things are not up for debate, and there is no middle-ground to be had with people who think otherwise. 

“… easily. Hitler Youth kept trying to preach…”

are u telling me there is an organization in the US that calls themselves “Hitler Youth” which would be the exact translation of “Hitlerjugend” which was the organization that all boys between 10 and 18 had to be a part of during the third reich in germany

like wtf america

founding smth like this in germany or austria would be fucking illegal

We have a lot of this kind of shit hidden under the floorboards of our nation tbh. They’re not always as outspoken as this scrawny little shit, but they’re here. It’s legal to deny the holocaust here and form hate groups as long as you aren’t directly attacking people under its name.

Still not exactly a smart way to go about it, instead of yelling why not call him out and question his reasoning, dont just make it seem like you dont want him talking, prove why hes wrong.

To paraphrase Garry Kasparov, trying to “reason” with this sort of person is like trying to try to win a chess match where you’re playing by the rules, but your opponent is just pissing on the board. 

You can’t win a chess match against somebody who isn’t playing chess and you can’t “prove” things to people who choose to believe in violence-inciting, antisemitic conspiracy theories. 

Trying to debate him would only legitimize his views. 

Tear gas

Do not wear contact lenses if you are in a situation where you may be tear-gassed.  When I went through basic training, we were warned that there was a possibility the tear gas they were using could melt contact lenses.

BOOOOOOOOOOOST!!!!!!!!!!

Jesus christ.

also: if you’re asthmatic; get the HELL out of there. tear gas can cause and extreme reaction and kill you almost instantly. your inhaler will NOT do shit. just get the fuck out of dodge. 

Shit. Reblogging for more vital information.

^ ATTN: sickle cell anemia:

trouble breathing due to tear gas can cause a crisis if you have sickle cell anemia. I know this because Bahrain, which had protests, had several deaths and hospitalizations due to this. Considering sickle cell is prevalent in people with African heredity and no one’s mentioned this, thought I would share.

And don’t you ever forget it. 

Fat women of color have been leaders in almost every political movement to end oppression. Appreciate and recognize their labor.  

Also notice how Coulter is using fatness to derail the conversation away from the issues being raised by the protesters. Notice how she is using fatness as coded language to discuss the “problem” that women of color pose to the white supremacist establishment. Anti-fat bigotry is rooted in racism and white supremacy, and this tweet is a perfect example of that evil union.

In a later tweet, Coulter implies that weight loss would resolve the protests. This may be true. To quote Naomi Wolf: “Dieting is the most potent political sedative in women’s history.”

I thought she had run out of ways to be evil

And what the fuck is she actually trying to say here? ‘

That fat girls are organizers?

That fat girls are politically engaged?

Damn fucking straight Ann, without fat women, in particular fat women of colour, there would be no protests.  And we’ll never let you forget it.
