Some more good news.

You may or may not have heard that the incoming president of Oxford's Union Debate and Trust was caught in WhatsApp celebrating Charlie's death. That was bad enough, but what makes it worse is that this guy, George Abaraonye, debated Charlie a few months ago. Charlie was nice a respectful to him too. Yet this DEI hire (Seriously, he apparently has subpar grades and "somehow" still made it to this important role) could not help himself and had to gloat about how funny it was that he was dead. Someone being in charge of debates at a prestigious university that seemingly can't handle a debate is not a good look.

People complained, and Oxford eventually put out a really weak statement, basically saying that what he did was bad, but they weren't going to do anything about it.

Here are the developments:

James Price resigned due to inaction and wrote a scathing letter about it:
I have resigned as the honorary secretary of the Oxford Literary Debating & Union Trust, the charity that owns the
@OxfordUnion
’s buildings, and dispenses its charitable responsibilities onto the Union as its delegate.The callousness of the Union’s President-Elect has shocked me, but I also can't accept the lack of intervention on the issue.The trust is full of the most incredible people. I hope this ultimately helps, in a tiny way, a great British institution that I care so much about.

But wait, there's more. Someone did some digging and found out if they get enough signatures by October 12th, they can force him to be removed:

1757719098602.webp

As of this writing, he's 23 signatures short. He believes they will make the goal.

Charlie's death was not in vain. So many leftists in high places are getting fired. He's fucking over these leftists from beyond the grave.
 
I am trying to think of what kinds of memes the public at large would be exposed to if this shit was happening back in 2005. Like esoteric shit they would need explanations for. Probably shit I have completely forgotten.

Certain users are allowed to shit up whatever thread they go to because they have seniority when it comes to account age. Those users know they can get away with almost anything under the guise of "trolling", but if an account made 2 months ago did the same exact thing they would be permabanned. Null IS correct that you should just ignore them, but why the fuck should they be allowed to habitually shit up everywhere they go with impunity? Newer users that haven't encountered them before ARE going to take the bait because they are naive to the trolling tactics.

Also, some moderators, you can guess who, will gunt guard their favorite users if you disturb/insult them when they shit up a thread on green/purple/blue boards with off-topic politisperging.

It's blatant favoritism.

.... or maybe Null would rather people here act like adults. Use some self restraint, and just put the fucking troll on ignore and move on instead of shitting threads up with 20 replies to their one comment. But people seem incapable of just scrolling past HHH's comment about letting an obese pedophile penetrate you.

HHH isn't the one in the wrong in Null's eyes. Everyone who falls for the bait day after day after day after day is.

If you can't handle seeing HHH's posts, put him on ignore instead of whining and crying about him as though anyone cares.

Oh God, the HHH summonings are ludicrous. Theres this persistent ritual that people do to tag him into a thread just to squeal at him. It contributes absolutely nothing to discussion whatsoever. It's like this bizarre tribal bush-man scapegoat ritual. Then people act like they appreciate him for having a different opinion or some kind of weird comraderie or something, but i always feel like he's a tired uncle stopping to play peek-a-boo with the toddlers on his way out.

Time will tell but my prediction is even if Asmongold or Fuentes want to appeal to Kirk's audience they'll both fail for different reasons. Asmongold has little to no real political history, he didn't vote in the 2024 election, questionable conviction and doesn't have much in common with the Christians among Kirk's supporters. Fuentes is generally politically schizophrenic, has a habit of insulting potential or existing allies every other week, is often too "extreme" for the mainstream (even if it's performative) and only provides lip service to religion.

Kirk was a wholesome family-man. No online shit-stirrers can take his place, at most they're hoping to pick up any crumbs that might fall off the table from all this.

The issue isnt that he does his shtick thats fine and livens up the place.

The issue is you want to do it back on his stomping grounds. You get banned from at least the threads he rules and maybe the jannie gives you a more global timeout. Especially if you made a sock to do it.

I don't bother with HHH's broken record, Tommy Wasserberg ass. The only winning move is not to play.

Null-chan brings up a good point, with Kirk gone younger people might move to Fuentes
Presiona para expandir...
Hopefully not much. TPUSA fans know Fuentes as the asshole who crashes their con every year because of Israel. They aren't primed with a good opinion of him. My impression was always that Kirk was good at convincing idealistic liberal types who had no interest in a Fuentes or even Sam Hyde for that matter but might listen to someone calm and normal.

Doing that about someone you've engaged with in real life is weird. I've had to work alongside many insufferable leftoids. If I saw footage of any of them getting shot in the head, my reaction wouldn't be gloating or laughing. It's not about whether they deserve it or not, it's that when you know people, they're humanized for you; them being snuffed out should be disconcerting at least. If you're normal.

... again. A problem solved by just reporting his shit, ignoring it, and moving on. Lots of people figure that out here. There's apparently 108 people who don't on a consistent basis. HHH has and does, get banned when people just report him and don't shit up the thread for 20 pages.
 
I got it, I got some memes from 2005 people would have to WTF over
