I have to admit that I'm fascinated by white supremacists. Everything about them, really, from the patchwork adoption of various European symbologies (Nazism and Odinism are two obvious standouts) to the arbitrary definition of race itself. Sprinkle in some Christian Identity goofballism (white people were the REAL Israelites the Bible talked about, as one example) on top and I just can't stop gawking at the trainwreck.

My current favorite conspiracy are the kosher marks on various food products. ZOMG TEH JOOS I WONT BUY ANYTHING MARKED KOSHER EVAR.

cue the gay black jewish clansmen

What does this have to do with bacon?

They were going to use books by a black supremacist, but Dreams From My Father was sold out.

I clicked the link expecting to see pictures of said art and instead I found pictures of people insulating some walls with books.

That's actually really cool. If I were in the area, I'd go check it out. But with me as far away as I am, I just wish they put up pictures of some of the other pieces.

Vodka Zombie: I'd personality like to find out the thoughts of various white supremacists on the branding of President Obama as a Nazi by this nation's far right.

Well, it seems that we have few in attendance at this very moment.

Wow, you're not even American and you still went straight to retard. What does Obama have to do with this? You're pathetic, dude.

In related news, a racist publication hit a sales record of 4,005 copies sold, beating the old record by more than 3,000 copies.

Man, so many Farkers seem stuck on "overly serious kill-joy" today.

I suppose if I made a joke about Palin I'd be getting high-fives, since the humor agrees with your ideological bias.

They didn't buy them.

I hate the art, too. Yes, the concept is neat and I like the message, but I was hoping for a better presentation.

You admit you get joy from trolling. Enough said.

Actually, no. You would still be threadjacking, you attention-starved cocksucker. And Obama doesn't "agree with my ideological basis" in any case.

THIS!

If THAT is art, my toolbox must be worth a friggin` fortune! Have stuff crammed in there so the lid will barely shut.

this should have been a photoshop entry.

Thread-jacking? Introducing another subject? How could these things happen on Fark? Lamentations and grief!

Crawl back under your rock and try out your well-worn schtick in the next Politics thread, you piss-ant.

I get that. I love me a good conspiracy theory. Not that I believe them, it's just so amazing to me how many people can buy into the delusion. If you have TruTV, then I highly recommend a show called "Conspiracy Theory with Jesse Ventura." It's hilarious how quickly he's 100% sure that the Bilderberg group is sterilizing us with asparatame to reduce the world population to 500 million because a few nut jobs said they heard that. It's comedy gold, Jerry.

Please stop feeding the troll and just set him to ignore. Starving them is the only way to kill them.

You have angered me greatly, and I am typing a response to voice my outrage!

Congrats to all the artists. Both the writers of the literature as well as the people that turned it into somthing else.

Swampthing in Korea, you magnificent bastard.
Fark is so predictable.

He's 100% correct about the Palin thing BTW.

I agree that the art presentation itself looks kinda lame. But I just thought that the idea was really cool, and even better to imagine the reaction from the author(s) when they see their hate work desecrated in such a way. That warms my heart.

/submitter

Swampthing in Korea: Man, so many Farkers seem stuck on "overly serious kill-joy" today.

No sh*t. The butthurt is rampant all over this place today. Hangovers, perhaps?? Or a little residual bitterness from spending the last day of the old year and the first day of the new year alone and coated in cheeto dust?
Fark 'em, Swampthing. Fark 'em all.
/Today's hangover has been brought to you by the letter ow and the number Rumplemintz.

qwertypoo: He's 100% correct about the Palin thing BTW.

Joke: "So how did they get so many copies of Going Batshiat by Sarah Palin?"
Response: *crickets*

I hate to break it to you, but 'unfunny' is fairly universal. Unfortunately, wingnuts don't know what 'funny' is to begin with. Social retardation has that affect.

White men can bang black chicks as often as our white couterparts but they just too scared
/Us black men are also scared

If by "agrees with you ideological bias" you mean "doesn't represent a particularly paranoid and creepy undercurrent of racism", then yeah, maybe. Do you have a specific joke in mind?

I like the idea that it's being used in a way contrary to their intent, but a white supremacist filters just about everything they see as justifications for their beliefs. They would believe that the paper is ran by jews and that this is just proof that the "race traitors" and "zionists" are afraid of this group and author because he's supposedly speaking the truth. And it was that supposed fear that made them do this.

Racism? Where the hell did you actually get racism from? Do you actually think I believe Obama is a black supremacist?

What did the 0 say to the 8?

I like your belt.

Yes, oh yes, Farkers ... I will tell that stupid joke over and over again until somebody gives me a courtesy lol. Then I will let it die a quick, painless death.

By the way, did anyone else have We Built This City by Starship stuck in their head all day yesterday?

Swampthing in Korea: Do you actually think I believe Obama is a black supremacist?

I notice you have a nice way of dancing around that without ever actually admitting anything.

FTA: All that the impoverished defector asked in exchange for the books was a bus ticket out of town.

Ha Ha! The "defector" totally scammed them! Here was this "White Power" dude who was stuck with a truckload or two of unsold books and storage fees every month. So instead of having to spend an afternoon cleaning out the storage area and trying to find a place to dump the books, he calls up this lady. He then not only gets her to solve both his problems for free, he actually gets her to front him some cash "for a bus ticket".
Pure genius.

Obama is NOT a black supremicist, black militant, Muslim, secret muslim, communist, ex-communist, terrorist, nor does he read X-mean or prefer the second Star Wars triology.

Hit up the retard alt who does the second-rate Borat impersonation. He's up the thread a bit. You should should bond nicely.

So.. burning books you disagree with (albeit with a good reason this time) is bad, but turning them into art is good?

Yes, the guy that arguably scammed a bus ticket ranks up there with Newton and Einstein.

I don't think he scammed a bus ticket, but if life has brought you to a point when you need to make up an elaborate story to scam a bus ticket, I don't think "genius" belongs on your resume.

Copies of the books are still available to people who might want them.
