I'm new to Lemmy, and this is my first time trying a video. If there's a better way to do it let me know.

These fuckers are cutting each other's throats for Clicks.

[–] livejamie@lemmy.zip 24 points 1 day ago

What could be more American than that

[–] Comrade_Mushroom@hexbear.net 97 points 1 day ago (6 children)

Knowing how fuckin' panicked this little idiot is right now between rushing to disavow and also wondering if he's next brings me so much joy, lmao

[–] VILenin@hexbear.net 72 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Setting a precedent for icing streamer nazis for not being nazi enough, and having the last name Fuentes probably has him hyperventilating in between frantically removing all his old posts about Kirk

[–] Comrade_Mushroom@hexbear.net 58 points 1 day ago (4 children)

I genuinely wonder if there's going to be Kirk fans out there who are going to seek retaliation when they come to understand this guy was a Fuentes-flavored-fascist. Are we entering white-supremacist gang war territory?

Probably not, but it's interesting to imagine.

[–] Justice@lemmygrad.ml 48 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Kirk's followers, the ones that weren't fake astroturfed numbers on paper, were all old people from what it seemed. Boomers that wanted to project onto him their own disappointing son or whatever. "Ah look at this nice tiny face man. He loves Jesus, he looks 45 at age 30, he respects his elders like our beautiful Mr President-Sir, and he doesn't constantly tell me I'm a bad person for being racist, anti abortion, and loving Israel!"

So I dunno. Maybe some 65 year old on their second stroke already will try chasing in a parking lot. That footage would be hilarious.

[–] livejamie@lemmy.zip 17 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Wasn't he the largest Young Republican organizer? Isn't that was TPUSA was all about?

[–] MolotovHalfEmpty@hexbear.net 14 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Oestensibly yes, but their online audience was always overwhelming older white dudes. It's the same for the UK offshoot here, they're mostly just a shell to funnel American money and contacts to violent old racists attacking drag story time hours and refugee hotels.

[–] VILenin@hexbear.net 27 points 1 day ago

No I think they’ll just keep saying it was a woke leftist college student and then shoot up an SJP chapter

[–] mendiCAN@hexbear.net 4 points 1 day ago

appreciate the alliteration

[–] Evilsandwichman@hexbear.net 18 points 1 day ago

also wondering if he's next

Someone apparently DID try and get him a short while back; took a crossbow to his front door.

[–] into_highest_invite@lemmygrad.ml 30 points 1 day ago (1 children)

i hate to say it but disavow is a meme for nazis. the shooter was one of his own. he's fortnite dancing on charlie kirk's corpse

[–] Comrade_Mushroom@hexbear.net 31 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I'm aware they weren't super best friends, my point is that there's a 0% chance Fuentes watched that dumb asshole's neck splurt all over the place and didn't wonder if he's next, especially after having been harassed at his house before already

idk what he would have expected "groyper war 2" to entail besides his rivals getting stochastically popped and him looting their corpses

[–] Justice@lemmygrad.ml 29 points 1 day ago (1 children)

We do deserve the transcripts or actual call logs between Kash or whoever at the FBI and Fuentes. As a treat. I bet it's fucking hilarious.

"You little fuckin' twerp! What the fuck is wrong with you?! Why were you encouraging this shit, dumbass?"

"Listen, ."

It's what they all deserve more than anything. Infighting that destroys them. Please god. Please?

[–] Evilsandwichman@hexbear.net 18 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

"Listen, ."

Gonna be real here, I think he'd be too terrified he's going to get arrested or going to have agents watching him 24/7 to be racist. Him quickly disavowing all political violence in the aftermath, that kind of clean and grown up language, is definitely a sign he's scared he's going to face legal backlash.

[–] Justice@lemmygrad.ml 3 points 1 day ago

I don't know if Fuentes has the self control to not call an Indian man with authority over him a racial slur

But we'll sadly never know. Well, maybe we'll get the "based libs!" podcaster fbi in about 3 years and they'll leak it

[–] AutoVomBizMarkee@hexbear.net 22 points 1 day ago (2 children)

It’s hard for me to imagine why he would be panicked. The entire federal government has decided this is a great time to crack down on “leftists” in the broadest terms. Even the most mild mainstream media ran the “pro-trans” bullet bullshit as long as they could. Nick has nothing to worry about. It doesn’t matter if the shooter has a manifesto saying Nick told him to do it. The system is captured and everyone is along for the ride.

[–] Comrade_Mushroom@hexbear.net 18 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I'm not talking about agents of the system, lol.

[–] AutoVomBizMarkee@hexbear.net 9 points 1 day ago

But like who then? His group is volatile and nuts but that just seems unlikely. The turning points people don’t seem like a group a willing Jack Rubys. The feds love the lesser nazis like him.

[–] Rom@hexbear.net 9 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

They're not gonna find the next shooter with the leftists lol

[–] BadTakesHaver@hexbear.net 11 points 1 day ago

"Your Body, My Prison" fedposting

[–] SummerIsTooWarm@hexbear.net 35 points 1 day ago (2 children)

How can anyone listen to such bad and repetitive rhetoric? You couldn't even pay me to watch an hour of this 'content' and yet people willingly engage with it? He took so much time just to say multiple times that he fucked TPUSA, what is so captivating about that? Is it just the edginess?

[–] livejamie@lemmy.zip 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Doesn't that describe all right-wing media? Trump included. There are various levels of vulgarity, but it's all inflammatory shit. I can't think of any wholesome or chill right-wing content creators.

[–] SummerIsTooWarm@hexbear.net 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I mean to a large degree sure, but this video excerpt is 65 seconds long and he manages to say effectively nothing. It may be my rotted brain, but watching this was actively boring. I just don't understand why you would chose to listen to him if there are others that are just better at nazi agitation. (Not that I mind rightwingers getting even dumber)

[–] livejamie@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I just clipped the relevant context. He streams on Rumble if you want to subject yourself to it, but I assume he's been scrubbing any of this content that shows how inflammatory he was.

This clip is taken from a 9-minute summary of the stream from one of his fans if you'd like to see/learn more.

[–] HexReplyBot@hexbear.net 1 points 1 day ago

I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:

[–] stink@lemmygrad.ml 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Ngl I'm guilty of enjoying that slop. Not fuentes but Badempanada has a similar cadence and sometimes its funny to just turn your brain off and watch someone get roasted

[–] SummerIsTooWarm@hexbear.net 6 points 1 day ago

I mean I occasionally also put BadEmpanada on, but he does much less sloppy content. At least he makes coherent arguments and can explain his positions, even when I don't agree with them. But this dude is just like a racist and vulgar Magic 8 Ball.

[–] happybadger@hexbear.net 54 points 1 day ago (1 children)

With Ben Shapiro buying TPUSA, I'm curious to see what an organisation full of violently antisemitic groypers becomes.

[–] corgiwithalaptop@hexbear.net 16 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Wait when did Benny boy buy them?

[–] MolotovHalfEmpty@hexbear.net 11 points 1 day ago

He said on a stream that he would "pick up the bloody mic" and continue the work, possibly even having the Daily Wire buy TPUSA.

[–] Dessa@hexbear.net 37 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Good god, the right is a mess. Trump is the only thing holding them together.

[–] segfault11@hexbear.net 56 points 1 day ago

it’s a good thing for them that he hasn’t had any medical incidents like a stroke recently! 😊

[–] Sickos@hexbear.net 2 points 1 day ago

That's what happens when an entire "ideology" is based in great man theory.

[–] livejamie@lemmy.zip 18 points 1 day ago (4 children)

His body seems like a ticking time bomb too.

You don't think they'll follow JD Vance or Don Jr?

[–] Dessa@hexbear.net 17 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Vance doesn't have Trump's charm or instinct. He's a toady chosen for his loyalty amd will to completely submit to dear leader. What does he have to offer the.base as a leader? He'd do his best to run Trump's playbook but powerful Republicans will vie for influence, and this could put them in conflict.

Fascism, especially when young, needs a strongman that can leverage respect or fear. Maybe Vance is capable of stepping into that, but I'm not convinced.

[–] livejamie@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 day ago

When I see that base get excited about him tweeting stuff like "I don't give a shit what you call it" regarding war crimes, it seems like the same old shit to me.

[–] darkcalling@hexbear.net 14 points 1 day ago

People here seem to forget the right has a whole media ecosystem. If they don't follow Vance or Don jr it doesn't fucking matter. That just means they follow what Fox News or the other reactionary streamers now stealing Charlie's audience say instead and they all echo broadly the same thing. They all get on the same page to say you know that trans people should be killed or you know the dems are communists and make america great and China is bad and be racist to asian people. Some slight differences but they're all tentacles of the same broad tent of funders and though there might be some brief struggling the bourgeoisie know how to coalesce around some core red meat issues to keep the hogs marching to their tune until the next big thing comes along to steer the ship totally.

[–] DragonBallZinn@hexbear.net 6 points 1 day ago

Despite reactionary’s big dream of “the normals” being the only people in an eternally stagnant neverland (with the rich and their elderly politicians being the self-appointed gods), they are arguably better at passing the torch down to the next generation of fascists. So I wouldn’t be surprised Trump has a protege.

Thank fucking God Corbyn seems to be creating a protege in Zarah Sultana in the UK.

[–] corgiwithalaptop@hexbear.net 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Vance? Probably. But I dont think Trump is starting a family dynasty at all.

You'd be better off using a site like tankie.tube to host the video and then post the link. Posting a video works but its not ideal.

[–] livejamie@lemmy.zip 18 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Good to know. Is tankie.tube preferred over catbox.moe for any particular reason?

[–] TankieTanuki@hexbear.net 33 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (2 children)

Both sites are optimized for streaming video, unlike Lemmy. It just comes down to user preference.

TankieTube is more niche, because it was created for leftists. It's also more social media oriented, because PeerTube is modeled after YouTube; you can create publicly browseable channels, and like, comment, subscribe, etc.

Thank you for hosting and maintaining tankie.tube fidel-salute

[–] livejamie@lemmy.zip 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I didn't know it was made by somebody local that's cool!

The main difference seems to be TankieTube is more of a YouTube replacement and Catbox is more of a Streamable replacement for temporary/disposable videos.

[–] TankieTanuki@hexbear.net 6 points 1 day ago

Yeah, that's a succinct way to put it

[–] purpleworm@hexbear.net 28 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

You can tell he's king of the groypers because he is here boasting about figuratively "fucking" a "baby".

Hasan was right about him just Sephirothposting, going even beyond the vice-signaling that Kirk held so dear. He's like how RATM depicted their enemies ("I'm deep inside your children/ They'll betray you in my name") but to depict himself.
