For anyone who doesn’t know, Free Republic is a right-wing news aggregation/commentary site (read: they reprint the writing of people who actually do work on their own website). It’s similar in effect to DailyKos.com, which leans left, only far less well designed, and with rabid xenophobia and rampant plagiarism.
I usually try not to link to rabid wingnut sources, but a recently frontpaged “commentary” — or whatever you want to call it — at Free Republic was just too nutty not to publicly object to.
It’s basically a short ramble about how the author thinks Nazis are generally gay (and perhaps that gays are generally Nazis?), based on a totally un-gay trip he once took to Knott’s Berry Farm. Here’s my favorite part:
The first thing that came to my mind was– “awwww… a little gay couple, how cute.” But when they got on the ride, before they were shot into the air, they gave Hitler salutes and yelled “White Pride!” There was a black lady behind me, and she was as surprised as I was.
So my point is this– My gaydar is pretty well spot-on, so I’m wondering if white supremecy has less to do with blacks in general, and Obama in particular, and more with gender confusion, rosy cheeks, white tuxedos and hello sailor.
Less to do with blacks, more to do with gender confusion. And speaking of confusion, the fella that wrote this clearly has no experience categorizing and rejecting entire groups of people based on superficial attributes, so I think we should take what he has to say about racism being a non-issue among Neo-Nazis seriously.
The rest of the thread, including comments, makes fun of the two skinheads and their plans to go on a killing spree as not nearly manly enough. Please don’t visit the website.

Yeah, anyone with passing experience with Freep could have told you this was what they’d do. Freepers are pretty much all neo-nazis, bigots, hatemongers, and belligerents. They’re ignorant of even the most basic standards of journalism, fact-checking, and human decency, and they’re not afraid to show it.
Personally, I’m of the mind that we need to rile Freepers until they riot after Obama wins. Then the problem will solve itself, if you know what I mean.
