So I've had a fake white supremacist Facebook alt for years. I use it mostly to befriend them and report the racist shit they post and get their accounts deleted. I was hugely successful at doing so for a long time, but since the latest political climate in the US Facebook has decided they're absolutely fine with all of this and won't remove anything at all.

However I still hold onto it because sometimes I give information to journalists who cover white supremacists, and sometimes I get enough information on the person to tell their workplace, etc. Basically I just use it to collect information.

Anyway oftentimes some of the men try to hit on my (female) alt, so I end up delicately fending them off sometimes in messenger. Thankfully that's something I'm good at, but let me tell you the conversation is not scintillating with Nazis. Even these young Patriot Front guys are dumber than bricks, even though many have higher education of some sort. Several men have messaged me from contraband phones in prison, and several have been military members.

There is nothing funnier than a member of the Klan trying to sext though. I've had conversations with people with acquired brain injuries that were far more intelligent.

Just what Texas White America needs, more inbreeding.

The Whittakers

Makes the original comment quite distasteful when you know who they are

WR5@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 207d

Why is it distasteful? They are indeed an example of an inbred family, albeit not from Texas.

“just like Hitler imprisoned Gypsies, Jews, communists, you know, all of his political rivals, we have to do the same thing with women … They go to the gulag first. They go to the breeding gulags.”

Fuckin hell

Yeah, Fuentes really hates women.

quick_snail@feddit.nl · 22 pts · 208d (1 reply)

The average number of children per family in Texas is around two.

Jesus that's bad

In Texas, more than 10% of White Date users said they wanted four or more children.

Jesus, that's really really bad

Hey, little sister. Who's your super race?

Treczoks@lemmy.world · 13 pts · 208d (6 replies)

Those are exactly the people that should not breed. At all.

The only moral eugenics is my eugenics

Treczoks@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 207d (2 replies)

I never suggested to kill them. Just to remind you.

Bgugi@lemmy.world · 11 pts · 207d (1 reply)

Most eugenics programs are focused on breeding rates. When you're directly killing existing people it's usually called genocide.

NocturnalMorning@lemmy.world · 0 pts · 207d

I don't think saying they shouldn't have kids is meant to imply any kind support for eugenics.

They should only be allowed to hump rugs, like dogs.

The Barbed Wire used tools like TruthFinder (an online background check service), PimEyes (a photo facial recognition tool), and osinst.industries (an open-source intelligence platform) to identify members of neo-fascist groups, active duty members of the military, doctors, public employees, and more.

Nice

Interesting article. Wrong comm. This seems like a good fit for a Texas comm.

gAlienLifeform@lemmy.world · 23 pts · 209d

I definitely think it would be a good fit for other comms but I also think it fits this one. The fact that a bunch of dipshit white supremacists in Texas trying to get laid actually does give a lot of insight into our politics is something that feels to me like it could have been a bit on a sketch comedy show in the 90s but here we are.

Should have known it would be CCC.

Cool.

limelight79@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 208d (2 replies)

It shut down after they exposed it? That's great, but I'm shocked the site owners cared about the exposure. (I haven't watched the video yet.)

quick_snail@feddit.nl · 14 pts · 208d (1 reply)

No, she found exploits in the site and brought it down herself. Live. On stage.

By the way she described the incompetence of the admins, I don't think they had the brainpower to bring it back online.

limelight79@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 207d

Oh that's amazing. I have to watch that video.
