I don't get it. Leftists generally do know that, and don't like the FBI or Hoover, since they killed or imprisioned leftists and wrecked our orgs. How does this make sense in the chud mind?
The tweet seems to be based on a weird misconception that leftists love the FBI
Libs love the FBI and anyone who isnt a right winger is automatically a lib
They think the left loves the FBI and other law enforcement because chuds can't stop getting arrested and investigated for obvious crimes
They also think "the Left" is Pete Buttigieg and Kamala Harris splitting a latte at the trendy new Soy Bean pop-up.
They aren't entirely wrong. The FBI recruits almost exclusively from universities. Advancement is heavily predicated on your educational credentials. Numerous top officials hold law degrees and float in and out of top-tier white shoe firms in the big cities between administrations. I can't blame the failson clout-chasing shitkickers for feeling like FBI Director Christopher Wray and Deputy Jeffery Sallet aren't on their side. It's a Big Club And They Ain't In It.
These reactionaries are upset because they bought into the ambient hype. They really did believe this was a race war and not a class war. That they'd be immune to any kind of prosecution or interference because they had the right bloodlines. So they're seeing all these people as Traitors to their cause. Just like they see someone like Bernie Sanders or Joe Biden or Bill Clinton. Its all filtered through the lens of white nationalism.
Chuds hate the FBI because they raided Donald Trump
"The Left" hates Donald Trump
Ergo, "The Left" must support the FBI because the FBI opposes Trump and because the right only knows projection, they assume leftists just mindlessly follow the arbitrary idiot chorus like they do
They think that because they think the FBI might hold Donald Trump mildly accountable for having classified documents. (Or more specifically for not giving them back when he was asked to.)
If you read the letter it doesn't say anything about suicide, it just says something along the lines of "You know what you must do"
Clear reference to Lenin's work "What is to be done." Woke FBI strikes again.
No, but does anyone else remember that movie where Leonardo DiCaprio played J. Edgar Hoover and spends half the movie in a fat suit while crying?
This just reminded me of that
I don't think its any worse than the average American expression of style. Its a variation on the Preppy Ivy League vibe that's been going strong since the 60s, except its increasingly adopted by people who want to burn down their local community college for being part of the Cathedral or whatever.
We've departed from the roughnecks and skinheads with a dozen weird tattoos look, because these are increasingly bourgeois reactionary failkid types who need to suck up to their elders for cash and clout. All these goons are constantly online. They're always appealing to people who are constantly online. The image they're projecting has to be of someone in middle management who works out on the weekends. Neither liberals nor conservatives want to be visibly associated with anything resembling working class. Everything has to be about looking upwardly mobile in a culture where that's increasingly difficult.
In an overly financialized society, I wouldn't call it good or bad so much as a sign of the times.
it’s as mismatched and tryhard as the old “fedora and trenchcoat with anime print tee and katana”
no, it is far worse
So to the chuds the FBI is leftist now huh? I fuckin' hate this timeline :rust-darkness:
Same account immediately goes on to imply vaccines are causing mass heart attacks in young people. Also he literally had a 22-month long legal battle to get his account reinstated on Twitter, imagine that level of stupidity.
Fuck, as a Communist I'm really re-evaluating my positive opinions about the FBI now...
