The complete takeover of the #ProudBoys hashtag is the greatest thing on Twitter right now. https://t.co/SqxiaFTZku

Man in shorts.
We JUST finished a long binge of "Better Call Saul" - I am more amused/amazed at a Twitter account named Kim Wexler's Ponytail. Viewing it a second time, I believe the Ponytail held certain symbolism. It had a perky curl at the end of it for some scenes, but some scenes the curl is not present - do not believe this was accidental. It means something and I'll have to watch a third time to really get it.
Ah, the Rainbow, the symbol of selective exclusion, exclusive of brown, black, and takes gay pride in the shredded remains of white.
Both groups really should hang out sometime.

Get a life, people
I love the assumption that a group headed by a black man is white supremacist. It's more multi ethnic than BLM.
From old Guild:
--Dick Nixon made sure America will always be America and China will always be China.
China figured they had a problem with our little deal.
We will annihilate any threat, except COVID 19 which can like the Devil run carefree wildly, as long as the people don't understand Dick Nixon, because of their hatred.
Well played China. You got the worst of us.
Hope you tiny cunts are ready for the best, which God guarantee's you will get.

Isn't this what twitter was invented for?
Another reason to be proud of Western Culture, gay people are not persecuted for being out.
I have no idea what this is trying to accomplish at all, and I feel better for it.
I'm surprised the clip of Gavin McInnes hasn't made the #PrideBoys tag yet. If you want to know what I mean, you know what I'm talking about. Hopefully you'd rather remain ignorant.
Still, this is NOT the way to drive down public interest in a group. What the hell is the left so afraid of?
I thought homophobia was a bad thing?
There wouldn't even be a Proud Boys if Democrat mayors and governors didn't let Klantifa and Black Lives Murders burn, loot, riot, assault and murder other Americans.
Sure--they get in fistfights with the Klantifa nightriders. Big deal.
Have they shot policemen? What cities have they burned down? Who have they murdered? Whose businesses have they destroyed? Have they dragged anyone from their cars for not saluting? Have they burned courthouses and churches?

Trademark dilution.
Descriptive fair use.

Progessives' Diversity dogma is founded on a belief in color judgments -- that is a denial of individual dignity, denial of individual conscience, normalization of color blocs, color quotas, and affirmative discrimination -- that are sometimes correlated with skin color. So, it's color supremacist as in Hutu vs Tutsi, the lynching of black people in post-apartheid Progressive South Africa, and excess deaths and dysfunction under Some, Select Black Lives Matter (e.g. Planned Parenthood protocol, redistributive change, retributive change). The term "white supremacist" is merely a cudgel and leverage to be exploited in a particular society.

Isn't there a Philippine resistance group called MILF ? Now, that's an group ID that's been diluted !
Gay Pride ONLY.
All other prides will be struck down. No pride in boys, traditional manhood, or masculinity. That is not allowed.
**I will grant that the rainbow dude is having fun. Rainbow pride is a full state+twitter sanctioned activity.
An awful lot of people are indifferent to,or actively applaud, the harms that will follow from the impending loss of freedoms and the death of equal protection. So let's all just yuk it up. Dopes! They will deserve what they get. I won't.
It's one thing for Twitter to deactivate a hashtag of a group that it wishes to silence.
It's another to then immediately hand it over to someone else. That's not neutral administration of terms of service.
Klantifa... I am SO stealing that.
Drag is gay satire of women. One of the organizing forces of the Proud Boys is male chauvinism and reverence for western civilization, of which gay men have been important contributors. Likewise, the values of western civilziation have been able to give gay men unprecedented freedom to pursue a life of their choosing. The incongruence of the video and hasthtag are not as great as supposed. Or intended.
There is an element of misogyny that runs throughout the gay male world. Gays and lesbians don't really get along and were mostly pushed together by homophobia. As homophobia has weakened as a social force, gays and lesbians have moved apart and occupy different space. Camille Paglia has lamented the demise of the old gay bars in which gay men and lesbians used to coinhabit. Ann has detected some of this strain in the writings of Andrew Sullivan.
Watch the proud boys start to use the rainbow flag as a symbol of proud.
Woke society is at risk of the unwoke people adopting the Nike symbol.
These people are just sneetches. Referring again to the great philosopher Dr. Suess.
Nikes upon thars.
Mental illness and/or attention whores...let's celebrate it!
Remember hashtag diplomacy?
Some people continue to think Twitter is real life when it's just the latest Tamagotchi.

THIS...I have something to flip at the little lying Progressives, and it isn't something they would like.

Not as fun?
Antifa Ringleader poly pansexual leftist activist rioter.
Is there any meme from the left that is not based on a lie?
It as if their whole purpose is to deceive you. What a strange and evil calling.
Blacks didn't show up for Hillary and now we all must pay.
Crap like that is how you guarantee groups like the Proud Boys... or much much worse.
Why is it OK to be gay, but not OK to be straight?
Why are traditional masculine attributes so frowned upon by the collective left?

That. 100% that.
I'd love to see the Proud Boys official twitter account retweeting this and thanking their LBGT members and allies for their support.
It must be an inside joke. I don't get the meaning or the point, except that this seems to be the go-to way to supposedly piss off or insult mainstream America. I don't think they realize it just hasn't for decades now, if it ever did. That stupid gay stereotype crap has been a joke for centuries including on TV my whole life. One group it probably does piss off is gays who don't consider themselves defined by their sexual preference, which is most of the ones I know.
Speaking of "trademark dilution", what are the Democrats really about today? What is their defining principle?

It's all about the love.

Maybe Lebron James can try doing this rainbow dance with a BLM shirt and a Red Chinese flag. Synergy, man!.
Because they've been so much in the news, I looked up the Proud Boys. Appeared to be a nationalist, but not "white nationalist" organization. Didn't see anything about "white" on their site. In fact, they explicitly identified "Anti-Racism" as one of their core values.
I saw people posting the photos with the hashtag yesterday. The comments they were making with the posts made me think they were expecting all Trump supporters to be very upset by it all. It felt like they were vastly overestimating the number of people who would care.
I would not be surprised if they alienated some of the more "traditional values" groups who usually have tended to vote democrat.
Nice decor. Non descript low key pastel, nothing on the walls. Screams Xanax.
What a lame load of nonsense to associate with the idea of "pride"...it reminds me of "doth protest too much, methinks", and "Gay-Pride Parade Sets Mainstream Acceptance Of Gays Back 50 Years"

For once I agree with you. Tik Tok would even better plus it's Chinese.
I don't get it. Did the rainbow folks just turn anti-BLM? Good on them.
I am picturing someone who is out of the loop just now hearing about Proud Boys via the debate.
'Why did Biden want Trump to disavow the Proud Boys? I'll look it up online.'
Google leads to Twitter with #ProudBoys trending.
'Ah-ha! Found it!'
Sees photo after photo of gay men.
'Why did Biden demand that Trump disavow these gay men?'
Yeah, that should garner Biden some votes.
That is some sick shit right there.
This is like in the comment section here when someone makes a subtle joke, and someone else then makes the same joke but more obviously. Maybe they get the original joke or maybe they don’t. I. This case, the proud/pride thing and the boys thing was an allusion to begin with. Trump condemning them the way he did is the best thing to happen to Proud Boys in a while. They jus went big time.
@Laslo Spatula, if you’re around. Is Rhea Seehorn (Kim Wexler) the model for your girl with a pony tail?
HAHAHAHA, @doctrev. I had forgotten about that! Sigh. A more innocent time, which seems strange to say.
The squares gave up caring about whatever this is supposed to be a long while back.
"Leave us alone" is now the threshold question.
“Trademark dilution.”
I guess the proud boys intellectual property staff will have to send them a sternly worded letter.
So Twitter allows one to be proud to be a homo, but not proud to be an American?
Once again they prove that flamboyant gay men are all flash, no substance. Why do we want to normalize Sparkles the Boy Rapists? How does this benefit humanity?
I love how the Dems think this helps them. I mean LOVE.
I’m from Portland. Proud Boys were the only outfit that stood against BLMantifa. God bless and keep them
