depts.washington.eduGreat read, thank you! Not all in the past of course- see The Redskins.

At least Cleveland dropped Chief Waahoo this year in baseball.
Who downvotes this? You people are fucked. The smiling Indian head is way racist.

Don’t give the MAGAs any ideas, they’ll open another one in a “safe space” like Idaho

Seattle and Portland are some of the most racist cities, historically, in the United States. Also some of the whitest.
Highly, highly ironic.

Nothing ironic about that.
"I can't be racist, I voted Democrat" is just as dumb as "I'm not racist, I have a black friend"

Why are you so obsessed with this
Because he's a MAGA troll and a white nationalist/racist.
These trolls are flooding into city-based subreddits. It's getting ridiculous.
EDIT: And here come the downvotes. They've found this subthread.
Yeah I guess it was rhetorical but OP definitely is exactly as described.
This Seattle sub has always been pretty right-wing but it’s gotten way worse in the last six months and even way more worse in the last month.
OP’s post history is something else.
Wow, he's quite the bold racist.
It's happening in every city-based subreddit. It's only going to get worse leading up to 2020.
Just because you are tired of stepping over shit on the sidewalk in front of your house doesn’t mean you are right wing.
Says the brigadier from new york who has also demonstrated racism in this sub...
If we're going to use a metaphor to describe a thing, can we please keep the verb that metaphor uses consistent? How could a troll flood into?
Maybe instead "they're a MAGA shitlake flooding into" suits? Or perhaps "these trolls are turning city-based subreddits into their rutting zones."
Please don't get mad at me. I'm trying to help.
Trolls are not flooding city-based subreddits.
Sorry, is there a reference I'm missing?
The reference is within ourselves or something.
It's a great reminder of how far we have come. We can now be appealed that this shit went on any very few people cared.
Why are you so obsessed with him?
Oh, jesus christ. Now I remember why I blocked you.
I was called a racist so went down the Historylink/Wikipedia rabbit hole and found some interesting read.
I posted something I found interesting without an altered title (besides mentioning that it was not current). You still have to bitch? How the fuck do you even live life with such a defensive and upset disposition? Seriously, how do you even function? You are like a kitty cat with its neck hair standing on end and afraid of the world. You go to work and everyone turns their head and says "oh, godammit, please don't make me talk to them..."
You blocked me but are still responding to me?
Dude you seem to be projecting; are you sure you’re ok? Like in life?
Why are you responding to people you blocked? Don’t feed the trolls, they are festering in this sub like roaches.
And yet he got pavlovian upvotes for a lie and your thoughtful and interesting post got downvoted. It’s frustrating I know- I’ve dealt with the same problem. Nobody has figured out how to create an open publishing platform that rewards what’s interesting and informative.
No biggie. I probably need a troll account and a regular account because I am fine being a dick but also sometimes have interesting finds or shit to say. I could also just not be a dick, but that is not what the internet was made for. I also might be Krat. I notice I am usually blind drunk when he posts...
I first found this link at Historylink before finding the UW version. Historylink is awesome.
