> You have to be someone who identifies with your European heritage and ancestry. Meanwhile I, an American living in the Netherlands, encounter black people on a daily basis that speak better Dutch than I ever will. I mean, of course these people are fucking morons, but it's also pretty telling that their view of what is European is insanely whitewashed.

Who had "Whites Only" and "Arkansas" on their instant-win bingo card?

I had never heard of this place before Dan Cummins talked about it on the Timesuck Podcast like 2 weeks ago. Good listen if you want to learn more.

> To live in the community, Orwoll told CNN: “You have to be someone who identifies with your European heritage and ancestry. You have to celebrate traditional European values and we get those values from our religious documents within Christianity, within Norse paganism.” Wait, Norse isn't christian. Wait a minute, the Norse were burning christian churches in the 90s! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Early_Norwegian_black_metal_scene > “We value our heritage, not just because that’s our race and we’re all about skin color, but also because we care about traditional European music and art and European history, and we want to raise our kids in an environment where all of that is celebrated, not attacked.” Your religion is from the fucking desert in the fucking middle east, my guy. It was spawned by a jew who went against the establishment in Rome. I'm an atheist and I promise you that I know more about the history of your religion than you do, you stupid racist fuck. Also, Jesus was probably brown, dickhead.

Having grown up in Arkansas, the thing that surprised me the most was that this wasn't near Harrison. But it's in the Northeastern Corner near Pocahontas, yup, still makes sense.

Apologies for double-post, but I got sidetracked when I read the article. What really needs to happen is a targeted campaign of harassment. Violence is not something I advocate, but I understand it.
