    The far right's christofascist hate screeds against LGBTQ communities continue to get worse. In this case a county in NC that was set to host a drag night instead was greeted to literal blackness, as three different electrical substations affecting the county were deliberately sabotaged to pitch the entire county into darkness. Sheriff's office says it is investigating this as an intentional act.

    Initial reports indicate that the substations were all attacked with gunfire.

    The majority of America told these caveman trash to fuck off in 2020 and 2022.
    The analogy I make, is the concentration camp guards who stayed to shoot as many prisoners as possible rather than just fuck off when the Americans swept in.
    Their little moment in history is dying, but they want to hurt as many people as possible on the way out.
    Doesn't make 'em less dangerous, but recognize them as the cowardly loser failures that they are.

    If it is the republicans they will want to brag like they did on Jan 6th. I do hope that when the locals hear them brag they report them to the police. This is not just going after GLBT people at this point. This is an open terrorist attack on the electric infrastructure everyone relies upon. It is terrorism o0n everyone to shoot up substations and cause power outages. This is the same sort of thing we expected from Islamic terrorists after 9/11.

    Maybe we should treat those who claim to have knowledge of this, like the traitor woman in the article, to a trip down to down to Gitmo and waterboard them like the righties claim was what we should always do to terrorists. I guess we do not do that to Y'all queda and the gravy seals.

    This is an escalation that the straights should worry about because you are far more of the population that is effected when the terrorist righties decide to attack electric infrastructure in an escalation to full on war in america. It isn't even the blue states that are suffering from this attack on america. Shoot up the red state republicans to get at the gays. See where that leads to.

    Attacking electrical substations is domestic terrorism and should be prosecuted as such.

    Someone made the observation that we shouldn't overlook the gun stores that were looted after the blackout happened.

    Anyway, NC aside, it was a big weekend for terrorism plans like this in
    Columbus, OH...

    Luckily they could call the cops...oh...wait...

    BUT less well reported was that a lot of the chuds either suffered lack of attendance or got more pushback than they expected

    Not sure why you're alarmed.

    Just some Americans exercising their second amendment rights.

    Yeah, what the fuck is that supposed to mean mr. The Boy?

    Do you want to start openly cheering for the deaths of GLBT people by your right wing heroes. Please do show the people around here that think you are not complete scum that any decency you show is only an act.

    The FBI would be foolish to go after me or Wordforge over my reference to a science fiction show, but sure, save the post and make yourself look like the moron you are.

    We're on a website full of geeks. No-one seems to have gotten your reference, so you might like to explain it, since otherwise it looks very much like the "jackpot" you're referring to is the deaths of LBGTQ+ people in a mass shooting.

    And the fact people here think you might be referring to that should result in some self-reflection, but it won't.

    Turdrun is a moron whose fantasies rival Trump. You should know this by now. The fact that this has gotten your panties in a wad is hilarious. @Nova knows what I’m referencing. I don’t owe you or anyone else an explanation.

    Oh my panties aren't in a wad, I'm loving this shit. We've known for a while what you are, and it would be hilarious to see you reported to the authorities for something unrelated to that, which you could apparently clear up in seconds, but won't because you don't owe anyone an explanation.

    No you really don’t know who I am. You think you know because you’ve built up this boogeyman in your head, but you really don’t know who I am. You’re completely full of shit and you apparently indulge in Turdrun’s fantasies even though you know them to be fantasies. You’re pathetic.

    In short, even if I thought FF had it in his noggin to shoot up a bar full of gay folk, I fully expect him to be wrestled to the ground by a drag queen before he can even unholster. And to get a rather confusing erection in the process.

    It is my fault that the guy who calls trans people child groomers and quotes us all the memes and rhetoric of the violent terrorist right is viewed as taking joy in the jackpot of an obvious escalation of violence against that community with his obvious comments. Then on top of it he tries to rope another trans person in to defend his piss poor supposed joke.

    I don't even give a fuck if there is a reference. You have been spouting trans panic bullshit here for a long time. So even if you did creatively have some sort of reference in mind to defend yourself, you clearly have made the statement to go along with your hate. In no way does @Nova have to come here and try and tell us all how you are not being a dick and intellectually dishonest about your clear dog whistle.

    You are rightfully suspected of hate speech because you do it all the time and you fool no one but UA at this point. But maybe some of your apologists want to come out and tell me how I have you all wrong.

    Fun thing is, the two major bigots here have been muted for...2-3 years now?

    Occasionally see half-a-conversation threads where y'all are lighting them on fire rhetorically but I've moved on from trying to be rational with irrational minds.

    Indeed.

    She's also big pals with the local sheriff who did a "going through the motions" interview with her, then they had a little prayer together and the next day he declared she was unrelated.

    My guess is that she at least knows who did it and why (whether the theater was the actual reason or a smokescreen) and he's going to end up with Uvalde on his face but we shall see.

    By the way - no relation.
