I can't be the only one that's a little bit sad that the thread title wasn't literal, am I?














(Excuse me if that joke has already been made)

Understand that there are literally MAGA hats that are older than Candace Owen's "conservative principles".

Her background and political flip is very interesting reading. She was a hard anti-Trumper until she stayed a doxxing site to take on internet bullying. She, of course, was immediately doxxed herself, and blamed it on the GamerGate movement. She was immediately supported by the right-wing influencers (Milo, etc al) and saw the writing on the wall. She flipped immediately.

She's just a person with bad faith politics. I don't really expect much politically from other black folks. There's a large liberal segment, but an appreciable conservative segment. Also, liberal and conservative don't map onto black politics in the same way as they do for other groups. In simpler terms, not all skinfolk is kinfolk. But we could say that about anyone. I think she's well aware that her political value is derived from her being racialized and I guess she's shrewd to play that card, but so many of her takes are more tied to being an influencer rather than whatever she's supposed to technically be. She's more similar to Milo or Ben Shapiro than she is to most black conservatives. And she's also just not very good at having a cogent ideology.

I just read part of the first page, where did those wise sages go? Why aren't they still here now that their opinions didn't age so well?

Damn this forum used to kind of suck for a while there, after reading some of the first posts.

People fell for that shit hard at one stage.
I remember the OG.
It was around 50/50 untill the lockdowns started then it went to about 95-5.
There was a whole thread about people apologising for how they were wrong.
There was about 3 people that didn't buy into it and were getting hammerd for being grandma killers.
touch @touch was one.
It wasn't until later in 2020 when opinions started to change back.

I didn't even bother calling it out at the time because people were so far gone it was a waste of time. There were probably others like me.

I didn't ever fully fall for it.
I remember listening to Luke thomas and he was taking the piss out of it and I fully agreed.
Then there was a couple of day's where I thought. " well at least the government is letting us know, which is the opposite of what I expected ". Then I listened to him the very next week with this massive apology on how he was wrong and thought. This fucking idiot fell for it. ( this was prior to lockdowns )
My opinions that it was bullshit only ever got stronger from there.

As much shit as he gets. You know who else was good on covid the whole time ?
Fucking Brendan schaub of all people.

I can assure almost none of them have changed. They're all terminally liberal and will go down with the ship.

When TMMAC split from UG/OG, a lot of the refugees left there because they felt disenfranchised by racism and hatred. When they nestled themselves comfortably enough in their new home, they let their true colors fly, and we got the opposite end of the spectrum, anti-racism and hatred.
