He was banned? Missed that one. I just thought he was being a bit quiet. I don't think he had said anything particularly outrageous. There was the usual waffle but hardly the shit Tesla was coming out with.

Did anyone call out for a ban?

Yeah, same, I don't come here often but I just noticed the "banned" and 0 post count under his username (the posts are still there, even if the count says 0). His profile says "Last Activity: Yesterday 04:44 AM" (I guess that's my TZ). And I don't recall him saying anything worse than other posters either, but perhaps I just missed that too.

I didn't know it was going to happen, and I didn't ask the mods directly. I said it was what should happen, because lies are not "views", they're motherfucking lies, etc.

Maybe Lee requested the ban. That would have been truly awesome. :D

Five people dead, man. Five lives lost because of this third-rate Mussolini wannabe's butthurt. Sure, four of them were moronic MAGAssholes, but Trump sent them there as cannon fodder.

I don't care if the guy has just a week left in office - impeach the motherfucker again, use the 25th ammendment, SOMETHING. Please, This Shit Has Got To Stop.

Opinion
Running Out the Clock on Trump Is Cowardly and Dangerous

Forget the 25th Amendment. It’s Congress that was attacked and Congress that must act.

By Jamelle Bouie
Opinion Columnist


The most shocking thing about Wednesday’s assault on the Capitol is that it happened. A mob of Trump supporters, some of them armed, stormed and vandalized both chambers of Congress, sending duly-elected lawmakers into hiding and interrupting the peaceful transition of power from one administration to the next.

That this was whipped up by the president — “We’re going to walk down to the Capitol and we’re going to cheer on our brave senators and congressmen and women and we’re probably not going to be cheering so much for some of them” — makes it an actual attack on the separation of powers: an attempt, by the executive, to subvert the legislature by force and undermine the foundation of constitutional government.

Nearly as shocking as the attack itself has been the response from Congress. On Wednesday night, its members resumed their count of the electoral vote and certified Joe Biden as the next president of the United States. So far so good. But then they adjourned into recess. It was Thursday afternoon before the Democratic leadership — Speaker Nancy Pelosi and the soon-to-be Senate Majority leader, Chuck Schumer — called for the president’s removal. And even then, they urged the vice president, Mike Pence, to use the 25th Amendment to do it, with impeachment as a backstop.

This is backward. A physical attack on Congress by violent Trump supporters egged on by the president demands a direct response from Congress itself. Impeachment and conviction is that response. To rely on the executive branch to get Trump out of the White House is to abdicate the legislature’s constitutional responsibility to check presidential lawbreaking.

There’s also the question of those members of Congress, like Senators Ted Cruz of Texas and Josh Hawley of Missouri, who helped bring the president’s mob into fruition by backing the effort to contest and overturn the electoral vote, an effort they carried on even after the Capitol was breached and terrorized Wednesday. Even if it’s just a motion to censure, Congress needs to act.

The alternative — to go slow, or worse, to take no action at all — will only create a sense of impunity. And American history offers ample evidence of how impunity in the face of mob violence can lead to something much worse than the chaos and mayhem on Wednesday. As it is, five people have died as a direct result of the mob attack on the Capitol.

On Sept. 14, 1874, more than 3,500 members of the White League — a paramilitary force of ex-Confederates and Democratic partisans — seized control of the Louisiana state house in New Orleans, as well as the city hall and the arsenal. They aimed to depose Gov. William Pitt Kellogg, a Republican, and install his Democratic opponent from the previous election in 1872.

It almost worked. White Leaguers overwhelmed an opposing force of Black state militia (led by James Longstreet, a Confederate general turned staunch supporter of the state’s Reconstruction government), took control of the city and even held an inauguration for the man, John McEnery, who would lead a “redeemed” Louisiana. Within days, however, news of the coup reached Washington, where an enraged President Ulysses S. Grant ordered troops to New Orleans. Rather than fight a pitched battle for control of the city, the White League surrendered, allowing Kellogg to return as governor shortly thereafter.

There was no punishment for the men who planned this attempted coup. So there was no reason not to try again. After the 1876 election, the White League seized New Orleans for a second time, ensuring victory for Francis T. Nicholls, the Democratic candidate for governor, and effectively ending Reconstruction in the state.

Just as important, the White League became a model for others in the South who sought an end to “Negro rule” in their states. In 1875, “White-Line” Democrats in Mississippi began a campaign of terror ahead of an election for state treasurer. They targeted Republican officials for assassination, sparked riots where Black citizens were beaten and killed, and sent armed vigilantes to break up campaign meetings and drive Black voters away from the polls. “Carry the election peaceably if we can,” declared one Democratic newspaper editor in the state, “forcibly if we must.”

The next year, in South Carolina, white Democrats used a similar approach — violence, fraud and intimidation — to “redeem” the state from Republican control and to try to deliver its electoral votes to Samuel Tilden, the Democratic nominee for president.

The toppling of Reconstruction was not the inevitable result of white racism. It was contingent on any number of factors, with uncontrolled violence near the top of the list. The vigilantes and paramilitaries — the White Leagues and Red shirts — operated with virtual impunity as they beat, killed and terrorized Black voters and their Republican allies. They demonstrated, again and again, that the state was weak and could be challenged and taken.

Despite its violence, the mob on Wednesday was, in many respects, very silly. Once inside the Capitol, they took selfies with police and posed for photos with each other. There were livestreams and a few people even wore costumes. They also took the time to grab souvenirs; a podium here, a letter from the Speaker’s office there. It was a big game, a lark.

But a lark can still have serious consequences. This particular mob successfully breached the Capitol in an effort, however inchoate, to install Donald Trump as president for a second time, against the will of the majority of voters and their electors. The mob failed to change the outcome of the election, but it showed the world what was possible. If the mob and its enablers — the president and his allies — walk away unpunished, then the mob will return.

Again, five people are dead who were alive when Wednesday began. Next time, it might be dozens. Or hundreds. Next time, our government might not bounce back so easily. Here, Congress doesn’t need courage. It just needs a sense of self-preservation.

This Is Who We Are: The Capitol Riots Are a Mirror We Shouldn’t Turn Away From

By Joyce Chen | January 8, 2021 | 2:30pm

On Wednesday, President-Elect Joe Biden tweeted, in part, “Let me be very clear: the scenes of chaos at the Capitol do not represent who we are.” And while he is right that the vast majority of American citizens do not believe that donning arms and storming the Capitol is an acceptable way to act, there is actually something harmful about denying that these rioters are the direct products of America’s lasting legacy of white supremacy. The sentiment of “this is not who we are” is one that gets used a lot after terrible things happen, ostensibly to boost morale and promote a return to common decency. But downplaying reality and pretending that our nation has always been one that promotes all things civil, just and equitable, is wrong. It is whitewashing the history of violence that has very much always defined America for anyone hailing from any marginalized community in the States.

Make no mistake about it: White supremacy and racial violence are ingrained into the marrow of our country’s bones. Lest we forget (and as a nation, we sure do try hard to), America was founded on the genocide of millions of Indigenous peoples. Manifest Destiny depended upon the death and destruction of existing societies and ways of living. Race itself is a social construct that came about after the Black Death wiped out an entire class of white indentured servants, so as to justify stealing and enslaving people from Africa. Remember Jim Crow. Remember segregation. Remember the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882. Yellow Peril. Vincent Chin. Japanese concentration camps. How white people living in the parts of Mexico that are now California and Texas straight up seceded from the country. Because they could. Remember Puerto Rico, because the U.S. so often chooses not to. Of course, this is only the most cursory of lists of all the ways white supremacy has dictated our history. And, importantly, this is only what’s taken place on our soil—this doesn’t even begin to touch upon the problematic issues of missionaries, the white savior complex, and neocolonialism, which continues to peddle lies in order to give old white businessmen access to resources in less well-off nations.

This is who we are. As a nation, this is the legacy our forefathers left for us. America as it exists today came to be this way because of white supremacy, not in spite of it.

Think about segregation again. We now know, in hindsight, that there was nothing “equal” about the “separate but equal” way that our nation was divided at the end of the 19th century. And yet, our schools are still segregated today, more than 60 years after Brown v. Board of Education. Think about the prison system. Redlining. Voter suppression. Women’s rights. Unequal pay. Boys’ clubs, Ivy Leagues, discrimination within hiring practices and the language with which we speak about these inequities. This is not the past we’re talking about here. This is present-day, current-policy, proud-to-be-an-American America. We define who we are by how we talk about ourselves, and what we choose to leave out or distance ourselves from.

White supremacy is still who we are.

It’s baked into the fact that Trump’s supporters were given wide berth when they forced their way into the Capitol Wednesday, while peaceful Black Lives Matter protestors were tear-gassed, shot at and manhandled last summer. It’s obvious in how plenty of liberal white folks were appalled by the entirely predictable actions of the conspiracy-theory-wielding mob. (Because willful innocence is part of white supremacy, too.) And it sure as hell is present in the accusation that anyone who dares to criticize America’s white winner-take-all mentality is “unpatriotic.” White supremacy is not just people in white hoods and angry rioters with guns. When we assume there is a “them” to deal with versus an “us” to fix, we perpetuate these cycles of harm.

Sports are huge in America—and around the globe—because we want to have something to root for, to rally around. We thrive on competition and winning and teams. We want to believe in people, things, ideas and possibilities. This is who we are, too. But when we accept the false claim that this “isn’t who we are” when it comes to white supremacy, we’re distancing ourselves from ourselves and inevitably failing to do the hard work of examining our own complicity within an unjust system. No one likes looking at themselves in the mirror after a rough night, but maybe we have to start to do that in order to learn our own limits.

We as human beings are primed for an “us vs. them” mentality; it’s how we’ve survived thus far as a species. But when fellow American citizens have in fact been dying at the hands of white supremacy for millennia, hearing politicians claim “this is is not who we are” rings false. It’s the same as white people standing on their soap boxes to say “hey white people”—it’s well-intentioned, but you can’t separate yourself from who and what you are. Doing so places the blame on outliers and individuals, and ignores the systems and foundational beliefs that continue to encourage white supremacy rather than combat it. And if we don’t first acknowledge this fact, then we won’t ever actually take the steps to address our societal ills. Just ask anyone who’s been through a 12-step program.

So instead of retorting that “this isn’t who we are,” maybe what we can proclaim instead is that “this isn’t who we want to be.” Because as much as we want to distance ourselves from the rioters in DC, they are the product of the very systems and policies that have given rise to America in the first place. History is holding up a mirror to us as a nation again and again, and we have to stop looking away.

As the late and great Dr. Maya Angelou once said, “When someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time.” White supremacy is who we are as a society, and it’s time we stop deluding ourselves so we can actually, actively, get to work dismantling it.

Exactly. Perhaps the difference is that Bytor has been an “active member” of this board for years, and his contribution to other sections of sy gossip somehow balances his posts here, dunno.. I don’t necessarily wish/demand for BP’s ban, just to make things clear, but a word from the mods could help understanding their choices and be a useful reference for the future.

New SY Youth Against Fascism Tee available for a limited time via our webstore

also via our EU store here with funds going to United for InterCultural Action (the European network against nationalism, racism, fascism and in support of migrants, refugees and minorities.)

Food for thought: the upcoming election is a serious pivot point for the U.S. and it is alarming how many past lyrics remain timely, including those from “Youth Against Fascism”. […] All net proceeds from the sale of these shirts less manufacturing costs will be split between the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee and the “Get Mitch Or Die Trying” fund via @votesaveamerica . Both of these funds are focused on trying to push the control of the US Senate back into Democratic hands in an effort to better control judicial nominations and legislative priorities. We will be donating once a week during this sale period to get funds into the hands of these entities as quickly as possible during these important races.


etc etc.

To be clear, not once in all my years here at SYG do I recall receiving word from a moderator concerning any of the content I posted. I would hope such a warning would find it’s way to anyone’s inbox before taking the drastic measure of shutting someone down. Also, on the few occasions when I reported rude and harassing behavior, I never received word from a moderator that they had received my complaint or that they even addressed the subject with that SYG member. However, I suspect the mods did address it because symbols stopped following my post in other threads (what are you listening to/last album bought) with Nazi imagery, people taking craps and pigporn.

My obsession with quotes and dates is to focus the attention on what was said. Addressing the narrative and not making it personal by attacking the individual. I have no doubt this is reflective in my SYG posting history. As I’ve stated numerous times in the past, it’s okay if we disagree!

You can think anything of tis poster but as long as he's not promoting an ideology that's preaching harm to others (nazism, racism, etc.), I don't see a reason to ban him.
Sure, we can argue that Trumpism is literally alt-right and alt-right is nowhere far from promoting racism and hate speech, but I haven't seen any comments in this regard from Bytor whatsoever.
He's a good-natured dude who is a bit confused and believes in the wrong guy.

Anyway, letting him speak his mind and not banning him is, for me, the fundament or liberal democracy, which is the set of values that I promote all my life.


Fuck no!!

Regarding the Christmas Morning Nashville Explosion

Quote:

AT&T got a contract to do forensic audit on Dominion voting machines and those machines were being moved to Nashville this past week.

The former owner of the AT&T building in Nashville, William Kennard, is a board member for Cerberus Capital Management and AT&T.... He also was Bill Clinton’s FCC chair, and Obama’s Ambassador to the EU.

Dominion voting is owned by Cerberus Capital Management.... Cerberus is run by Staple Street Execs. Joe Bidens Brother in Law, Steven Owens, is the cofounder of Staple Street Execs along with William Kennard (mentioned above).

Super Computer in TN was connected to the AT&T internet in NASHVILLE.... yesterday evening the Cumberland river cooling system was compromised due to internet outage and Supercomputer fried.....

If you don’t know, “Kraken” is a reference to a supercomputer former prosecuter, Sidney Powell, has been talking about.

So, the explosion “just happened” to be at the AT&T location where they “just so happen” to control the cooling system for the super computer and house the dominion voting machines and drives for forensic audit...

Does it make sense now why no lives were lost? Does it make sense now why the FBI task lead couldn’t even put together a coherent sentence in the press conference yesterday? Does it make sense why the mayor was making light of the situation, almost laughing yesterday?


There is so much to choose from!!

In the above Byteme quote (which I had to copy and paste because he didn't link his "source"), these are the things he chooses to post regarding the explosion on Christmas Day in Nashville.

Apparently, the whole thing is a conspiracy led by the Dems.

Someone died. Others could have died.

But the Dems did this!! You see?

Does this not qualify as the kind of bullshit that I believe Byteme should be banned for?

I'm putting him back on ignore. There's 10min that I will never get back.

Speaking of Pence, perhaps it was lost in all of this that Trumpence is truly broken, mostly because Pence followed the law. Trump tweeted nasty things about Pence, but nobody noticed. And of course, the mob (and Byteme) call for Pence's head.

This is hugely significant. Trump's most loyal lapdog is no longer there.

Will Pence do the right thing and take Trump's place at the Inauguration?

Shocking article from CNN with many links to other reports by other media outlets. Only read the NYT piece so far. Imagine you're a female photographer and you're hunted down by an angry mob after they've seen your press ID!!!

Antagon 01.09.2021 08:27 PM

^ Watched a video talking about this particular incident with the photographer earlier. This is absolutely sickening. The second impeachment can't come soon enough. Under no circumstances should this bigoted, narcissistic terrorist-enabler be allowed to hold any office again. That's the very least that should happen now. As for the atmosphere of mistrust and anti-demotratic sentiments being rampant amongst the people: Fuck, it's gonna be a long journey from here on out.

Clearly you didn't read or don't remember the times he split hairs between the neo-[insert revolting racist organization here] and the neo-[insert another, and so on] which marched in the deadly "Unite the Right" rally in order to prove that Trump had condemned white supremacy. As I argued then (and this wasn't any stroke of genius from my part; it's fucking evident), let's say Joe Schmoe, conservative dude from Charlotesville, read there was gonna be a unite the right march. Guy goes, yeah, I dig small government, I'm not a Roe v Wade fan, I think I'm gonna check it out. If he is in fact "good people", Schmoe's automatic reaction the INSTANT he gets there and sees SWASTIKAS is to say FUCK THIS, I didn't sign up for NAZI SHIT!

Skunk's defense of Trump was sheer racism covered in overwrought horseshit, utterly unacceptable anywhere but particularly in a site devoted to a band like Sonic Youth. So yeah, PLEASE let's clean house.

It turns out that Lin Wood is too much even for Parler:

(Isn't this yet another good reason to ban Byteme?)


And Parler has been banned from the Google Play Store

As I argued then (and this wasn't any stroke of genius from my part; it's fucking evident), let's say Joe Schmoe, conservative dude from Charlotesville, read there was gonna be a unite the right march. Guy goes, yeah, I dig small government, I'm not a Roe v Wade fan, I think I'm gonna check it out. If he is in fact "good people", Schmoe's automatic reaction the INSTANT he gets there and sees SWASTIKAS is to say FUCK THIS, I didn't sign up for NAZI SHIT!

Skunk's defense of Trump was sheer racism covered in overwrought horseshit, utterly unacceptable anywhere but particularly in a site devoted to a band like Sonic Youth. So yeah, PLEASE let's clean house.


I honestly had to stop reading anything posted by him because I'd be utterly bored shitless after the first twenty line sentence regarding some random auld act: circa 1652. And general nausea inducing discriminatory spiel.

You can say how dangerous the stuff they've been posting is but the fact is that not a single person on here has fallen for it (demo was on his own trip I think. A fallen comrade. Thoughts and prayers.) and gone "oh yeah...maybe they DO have a point." They're posting on a tiny forum that has about 15, at the most, regular posters. If they're posting the nonsense they post on Facebook, twitter etc then yeah that's a bit dry but here? Nobody's listening. The last thing I want is this place to turn into an echo chamber.
