#73. Coming for your children
Big gay conservatives, mercenary coups, right wing e-girls with extremely divorced energy, nude man story hour, and more!
Welcome to the NRP. We are publishing the absolute best of those extremely online extremists known as the new right — “All the shit that’s fit to poast.”
Threads of the Week
> The left gives young, eager acolytes networked opportunities and resources, as long as they stay in line, while the right tells would-be footsoldiers to put on a suit and walk up and down Main Street handing out resumes with a firm handshake.
> Normiecon-identifying homosexuals like Spencer Klavan are saying that they basically want the LGB without the T, but weren’t they always accepting of transfolx, until it became politically untenable for them not to? Wasn’t it always about subversion?
> Willie Simmons went to jail for decades over $9. But in order to get that $9, he had to repeatedly attack people, so fuck ‘im. Sad that it’s gotta be this way, but it do. It’s not just about the $9, it’s the repeat pattern of behavior that will almost certainly continue into infinity if left unchecked. It’s not about you, or how safe YOU happen to feel.
> They are never going to let an outsider be president again, are they?
