WTF are they thinking..?????

[uncleg]

So the Anti-Racism Coalition wants to have a "Black Shirt Day" in Vancouver and wherever anybody will get aboard to promote BLM etc....

I wonder if any of them know or bothered to research the history of Black Shirt movements. Can just see the Anti-Racism crowd call for a Black Shirt rally and all the fascists show up.....

I guess I’m old the first thing that came to mind was jack booted Nazi’s goose stepping through downtown Vancouver

 

[carvesg]

Yep first thought = Italian black shirts

If they go for brown shirts would be as ridiculous awakening the memory of hitler's brown shirts.

Can you send the link ?

I could wear my New Zealand All Blacks shirt

I'm guessing most of these folks have a terrible grasp of history. They mean well, but simply don't have a clue

All they needed to do was google "blackshirts in history" to see the irony!

 

[masterpoonhunter]

So my general wardrobe is black.
Will I be mistaken for a supporter? An oppressor? God help me a fascist?
I for one can't keep up with all the shirt colours.

Really ?????

Yeah, wow!!! It seems a lot of posters are as out of touch with the anti-racism movement as they are with other progressive social movements.

My 90+ year old mother is more current, informed and progressive than most of the commentary I read here and she experienced life in Nazi Germany.

Maybe educate yourself, google black shirt day and see the response and support it is getting before you shit all over it!

And maybe the terminally woke should read some history before they just assume that putting “Black” in front of something makes them paragons of progressivism.

Please ask your grandmother if she recognizes this Nazi.

Whenever I get a reaction from the black and yellow Fred Perry polo crowd I know I am on track. It must suck that not only has your horns and fur shaman been arrested, but with Parler and Tree of Liberty shut down you are now stuck ranting on a escort review site with all the bravado of a pimpley incel.

And I don't know what you think, but I take being called a woke social progressive lefty as a compliment, it is too bad you can't embrace your narrow minded, racist alt-right/far right identity with the same enthusiasm.

The movement has a well intended purpose that is long overdue, as I understand, its a movement thats been embraced by elementary school aged children. And a bunch of old bulls on an escort forum are buddying up to rip it apart. Not even giving the movement itself credit for intention. The commentary very distasteful, IMHO! Racist and entitled. I would have just left it where it was but you wanted more hey Uncleg? Need the woman to justify her actions?

Happy Birthday Martin Luther King!

...seemed to me that many of the old boys were only voicing a concern for calling it Black Shirt Day. Hell, it was only a decade or so ago that our fearless trust fund sock boy PM thought Blackface was fun and donned the look a minimum of 4 times, at least that is known...i knew that almost 30 years ago

You know nothing about me you woke moron. I have run my own business for over 35 years and have employed Black, brown, Asian, Caucasian, LGBTQ and every other minority your heart bleeds for. I have, and will continue to, treat them all equally. The terminally woke with their slogans and empty platitudes disgust me though. Just like their ethics violating, blackface wearing, groper, strong woman cabinet minister firing, sanctimonious hypocrite Justin Trudeau

Racist? Pointing out history of a term is racist? Only the terminally woke could come up with that. Have you ever seen the Saturday Night Live Skits with Dan Ackroyd and Jane Curtin .... Jane you ignorant ...
