The issue we run into is that he may verbally denounce it at times but then goes on a spree of doing or saying things that put it into question.

The proud boys aren't a white supremacist group though, kind of a crucial detail. Their "leader" is afrocuban and they have many non-white members.

A hint that your ideology is going off the rails is when you think black people can be white supremacist. What in god's name are you talking about? There are many reasons to criticize them, but you're taking troll bait so insanely hard when you genuinely think they are "white supremacist". Again, it's a buzzword. Actual white supremacists all live in like kentucky or something and there are like 20 of them.

100% of the White Supremacist who vote will vote for Trump. So if you want to vote for the guy whom is universally supported by White Supremacist vote for Trump.

Back on topic.

There are no employees. They are volunteers.

Your name is awesome. It is also in violation of the naming rules.

You didn't lose your friend list or hotkeys. It's simply in your EQ directory. Find the files with "Americafirst" and open and copy those over to whatever your toon is named now.

Yeah, guys. Completely ignore all the other issues at stake and get offended that a widely unpopular fractional (read marginal even) segment of the American population might vote for Trump so make sure you don't vote for him. Cuz, you know, if they vote for him and then you vote for him, that makes you just like them.


While we're at it, lets also try ... Hey guys, 100% of all the pedo celebs and child molesters that vote in America will vote for Biden. So if you want to vote for the guy whom is universally supported by pedos and child molesters vote for Biden.

This thread was already so bad to start it doesn't deserve to be re-railed. By page 8 I think anything constructive to the conversation regarding the OP has been said.

Gays will vote for Trump... but guys will vote for Biden.

Oh my, if you don't vote for Trump you're not pro-gay, but you're also anti-gay because you don't vote for Biden since some gays will vote for him.

Yeesh, you're in a pickle. You have to 100% align with everyone person that votes for your candidate, but if some group votes for another candidate, you obviously don't support that group.

If you don't vote for Trump, you obviously don't support law enforcement - they are almost all going for him

Where is Gary Johnson when ya need him?

What is this pedo celeb molester group called? Or did you just make that up? I feel like you made it up.

Fact is ProudBoys support Trump explicitly because their views align with his

To be fair to the people who run this, this thread has definitely gotten hijacked by politicking. I consider it emergent content though, which is part of what makes everquest interesting. And let's not forget, we are all gigantic nerds who play everquest. I think this can unite us.

They have a lot to come back from if you've read anything that came out of the founders mouth for the last, what, 15 years? And just to put this into perspective for anyone that doesn't do their own research, we are having HUGE national conversations of about a group that consists of at most 300 members according to the most recent statistics I could find. Again, not representative of our society as a whole or in any large part. I believe Trump really didn't know who they were when asked by the debate. Out of all the things the president is constantly briefed on, I wager the Proud Boys specifically were pretty low on the list until after he was asked at the debate.

It's called Hollywood? That statement was in jest at your line of thinking that if you vote for someone that a small marginal group supports that you think is bad, then that makes you bad by association. If that was the case we wouldn't be able to vote for anyone, because there would always be someone you don't approve of voting for the same candidate. I invoked the pedo/molester theories because there's more and more people claiming (I think mostly from the Qnon folks, but there's a lot of folks that believe it - I've got an aunt that is unhinged about Tom Hanks being a pedo, but I'm not up on that theory) that Hollywood celebs are a bunch of pedo's and child exploiters so I drew a bad comparison to make the point that your line of thinking was bad. I could have used another example but I took it to the level of ridiculousness that I thought met the level of ridiculousness of your statement. I personally claim ignorance on the validity of the pedo accusations, but as we see more and more sexual exploitation being exposed in Hollywood, and the child star becoming a sane functional member of adult society seeming to be exception to the rule of child stardom, I could see how people could believe the conspiracies. I personally think determining your vote on whether or a not a miniscule group of society's dregs is voting for them or not is a terrible idea.

In truth in regards to the white supremacists voting, if they vote at all, they'll vote for Trump simply because he doesn't endorse the BLM organization. And his stance on BLM most likely has nothing to do with race, and everything to do with Trump seeing them as Democratically back instigators trying to ruin the election for him. I'm pretty sure the only color Trump sees is green.
