Oppression of ethnic and religious minorities in the USA -2016

Post by Rudradev »

Ok, you know why this thread is here! The US election is over and there is a treasure trove of emerging articles for us to collect and archive for future use.

It is a matter of when, not if, the psyops about Hindoo India's treatment of women, Dalits, Muslims, Christians, Khalistanis etc starts up again in full spate.

When that time comes, let's ensure that we can counter those atrocity-lit fabricators with well-documented reams of psyops that they are now busily spewing against political opponents within their own country!

Keep them coming, folks. This is not about being pro Trump or pro Clinton or whatever... only about keeping our powder stocked and dry for whenever we might need it in future (new USCIRF bowel movement regarding Hindoo fundamentalists, for example).

There are no guarantees with any GOTUS and the only safeguards we will have are those we take the trouble to build for ourselves.

US Elections are over, now think only of Bharat Mata!

Some graffitti stuff..some allegations of taunts that probably cannot be verified ever, and are suspect because the person making allegation is very active in SM for one side -

But it’s not just sieg-heiling Nazis and cross-burning Klansmen who should trouble Americans concerned about what a Trump victory portends. It’s also the more polite, suit-wearing extremists who move in mainstream political circles and already have their nose under the Trump tent.

They’re people like Kris Kobach, the Kansas secretary of state who birthed the viciously discriminatory, unconstitutional anti-immigrant laws enacted by Arizona, Alabama and other states several years ago; and Ken Blackwell, the former Ohio secretary of state who is now a senior fellow at the rabidly anti-LGBT Family Research Council. Both are reportedly serving as key members of Trump’s transition team.

As is customary, Trump has pledged to be a president “for all Americans.”

If he truly means it, he must first boot the extremists out of his tent and tell them in no uncertain terms that they will have no voice or place in his administration. If he does that, perhaps he can begin to stanch the bleeding from the wounds he ripped open in our country.

Openly White Supremacist Steve Bannon named by Trump as Policy Architect. This is the guy who wants to do away with ALL H-1s, and who has immense taqleef that 2/3 of Silicon Valley CEOs are non-white:

https://www.splcenter.org/news/2016/11/ ... on-must-go
Montgomery, Ala. – In response to President-elect Donald Trump’s decision to appoint Stephen Bannon as his chief strategist and senior counselor, Southern Poverty Law Center President Richard Cohen released the following statement:

“Stephen Bannon, a man who led a media empire into becoming what a former Breitbart editor called a ‘a cesspool for white supremacist mememakers,’ simply has no business in the White House.

“In July, Bannon boasted that Breitbart News was ‘the platform for the alt-right.’ The alt-right, as we know, is simply a rebranding of white nationalism and is the energy behind the avalanche of racist and anti-Semitic harassment that plagued social media platforms for the entire presidential campaign. Once the news of Bannon’s appointment hit white supremacist websites last night, forums like Stormfront erupted in celebration.

“In his victory speech, Trump pledged to be the president for ‘all Americans’ and to ‘bind the wounds of division’ in our country. Appointing someone like Bannon, who will have the president-elect’s ear every single day, makes a mockery of that pledge.”
In a past interview on Breitbart (which Bannon once headed), DT pushed back on Bannon regarding H1s, even citing Kunal Bahl (founder of Snapchat) as an example of someone who could have created jobs in the US if he had received an H1 and had a chance to stay and work. Bannon did not agree and did some :(( about white guys having to train dirty brown DOOs who replaced them, etc.

However DT's present actions (appointing Bannon as chief policy advisor) speak louder than past words!

They made Obama's suffer with 8 years of noncooperation and racial abuse. Calling him a foreigner, muslim and a terrorist sympathiser. Geez they never deserved him. This guy did everything which Trump now claims he will do or fix.

While they fully support their Orange orangutan who is a text book man baby, xenophobic, and huge huge ego problems. But he is their orangutan.

All these hidden resentment and xenophobia was unlocked by Trump.
