Leave it to a place called Mystic to have it's own Grand Wizard.

[–] RootBeerGuy@discuss.tchncs.de 16 points 1 week ago (2 children)

That's a lower wizard at best!

I heard the pizza is pretty good.

The guy in the klan robe is a youtuber who trolls, mostly, Trump stuff. He is there, doing this, because the KKK literally endorsed Trump

+100 points each for hitting them, Deathrace 2000 style.

I don't normally pick at the physical appearances of people just for the sake of it, but I've noticed that Trump attracts a certain type of follower. Take a look at the people in the background of the next Trump rally and tell me what you see.

Those people and these people are the same. Just a bunch of trashy hillbillies. These klansmen are not the fringe supporters of Trump's cult, they're the ones down in the front. Like wax statues melting in the sun, their eyes glazed over enraptured as word salad pours out of Donald Trump's mouth.

And don't say "well that guy wearing the klan outfit is just a troll, the other people there are not associated with that!". If you've got one Nazi in a bar full of people, you're in a Nazi bar. If you've got one klansman at a Trump rally, you're at a klan rally.

Remember that every single one of those creatures are going to vote.

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago (1 children)

But they're not going to exercise, apparently.

[–] Jiggle_Physics@lemmy.world 11 points 1 week ago

They are going to exercise... their right to vote!

I'll be leaving now. You can stop throwing things.

I'm not sure what's worse - the KKK member or the person standing unashamedly next to them showing their face

[–] OpenStars@discuss.online 19 points 1 week ago

The problem with "normalization" of extremist beliefs...

Bet those robes are flammable.

If they aren't, that can be rectified.

Most normal Trump supporter.

[–] Steve@startrek.website 22 points 1 week ago

Possibly the most honest

Do you think scientology is jealous that they’re getting beat by MAGA?

[–] HawlSera@lemm.ee 7 points 1 week ago

I know some former Christian Scientist is laughing his ass off knowing that no cult lasts long if it remains tied to their leader.

[–] Commiunism@lemmy.wtf 16 points 1 week ago (6 children)

That's weird, I thought klansmen don't have to hide their faces behind hoods anymore after Trump. Someone should tell the guy to get with the times

Come on folks. Do you think the actual KKK would have a sign saying: "Trump: Endorsed by the KKK!"

I mean Trump took an avowed white nationalist Laura Loomer to a 9/11 ceremony. We don't need to find evidence out there that Trump is racist, he's out there telling everybody himself.

[–] Lux@lemmy.blahaj.zone 13 points 1 week ago

Wish,com-ass kkk costume

[–] Tin@lemmy.blahaj.zone 12 points 1 week ago (3 children)

I'm pretty sure that's this guy: https://www.youtube.com/@ProfessionalDouche

Trolls Trump events like this pretty often, he's an entertaining watch.

I'm swerving. I won't even think about it. It's an involuntary reaction.

[–] pop@lemmy.ml 11 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The "great" times, half the US fantasize about, but then most of them will argue its always been the greatest country ever.

So yeah, not at all surprising, this runs in the open.

To be honest, attending that “event” in a KKK robe would do great to show Trump voters who they caucus with lol.

[–] Jiggle_Physics@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago

That is what is happening here. That is youtuber professional douche.

about 10 minutes from my house, there is a house that has had a red take america back flag flying for so long it's faded and kinda blown out. their neighbor had 2 small BIDEN HARRIS signs put up about 2 months ago. then the shitty neighbor put up a yard sign for the orange turd and his couch fucker running mate. it wasn't until about 2-3 weeks ago when the HARRIS WALZ signs finally started making their debut, that this guy put up a 3x4 sign with a couple more smaller yard signs.

now there's a life-sized cardboard cutout of "thumbs up" facing out the front door

I get the feeling these people would be out yelling at black people in cars even if it weren't for Trump.

Didn’t some guy Sherman make it really clear that it’s legal to kill people dressing and behaving like this?

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago

Drove through New Hampshire a month ago and the road was littered with yard signs for Trump. Funny enough, once you got off the main road they became significantly less common. But someone definitely spent some time and energy absolutely littering I-93 with pro-Trump propaganda.

[–] OpenStars@discuss.online 6 points 1 week ago

Also our top terrorist threat as well.

What is the person on the right attempting to display in their hand? Is that like a crack pipe or a half eaten sandwich?
