Shouldn't block out the number and address, maybe we would like to spam them

23
- They usually use the information of other people they want to harass. The last time I saw one of those flyers, the number was to an elderly black woman.
  
  1
- Exactly. Nazis aren't human and don't deserve privacy.

Who tf privacy-blocked the info? That's a public poster of the fucking KKK I shpuld be allowed to harrass them on the phone as much as I want

16
- I didn't want them getting recruits with it. But enough people have asked, so 606-301-8149.

  Hold up. They often use the number of someone they want harassed

KKK: Claims to be the Master Race.

Also the KKK: Too soft to do any field work.

These fucking morons think $2 million is even a drop in the bucket of a state's budget...

The Klan should try to recruit a graphic designer first.

Oh suuuuuuure, NOW you wanna wear masks over your face. Now that you're up to some racist shit. But in 2020 it was all "I can't breathe with a mask on"!

103
Honestly confused why they blacked out the contacts there... usually that's done to protect individuals from things, but I'm pretty sure "fuck the kkk" is pretty well and good.

- Not gonna give out their recruitment number for them.

  Fair, and sad that is a real possibility

  Ah recruitment, touche. I was thinking more malicious.
  
  24
- Someone more talented than me could probably recover the phone number via edge analysis.
  
  There's a good chance it's more for their post to not get taken down. That said this is from Twitter, so... IDK

  The original wasn't censored so I did it.

  You can find the uncensored version on Twitter fairly easily

"Third world countries bring third world diseases"

Yet their Supreme Leader's inaction allows them to spread and fester unchecked. Who is to blame? Certainly not Supreme Leader!

I hate Ohio klansmen

Fucking racists need to stay away from the cool fonts, they're ruining them

62
- It's a tradition as old as fonts itself.
  
  Look at the fucking Nazis. Say what you will, those motherfuckers had style. It's too bad they completely ruined the swastika for the rest of time because it's kind of dope looking when you strip away any context. And those uniforms, goddamn.

  the swastika is a cool ass design, it's pretty low down on my list of reasons to hate Nazis but it's for sure on there
  
  1
- That and Celtic or Viking iconography.
  
  31
- Let's shame racists into using only Comic Sans
  
  19
  
  "All fonts were made by foreigners, only the true Comic Sans is full blooded American."

The first film ever shown in the White House was Birth of a Nation. That's how fucked up this country is.

Things are going great, everybody. Just great. /s

Isn't the klux an illegal organisation?

27
- According to the Ku Klux Klan Act of 1871? Yep.
  
  The 1871 Congress really tried to fix things only to have at least one other law illegally changed, which caused Qualified Immunity.
  
  https://www.nytimes.com/2023/05/15/us/politics/qualified-immunity-supreme-court.html
  
  21
  
  For anyone stumbling across this comment: qualified immunity isn't a bad thing. It shields all sorts of public employees from civil liability only while doing their jobs. It does not shield them from criminal liability and the civil liability is transferred to their agency.
  
  This means that if a mail carrier opens your mail box to deliver your mail and the lid falls off in their hand, you have to use USPS for damages, not the mail carrier as an individual. You still get compensated for damages, but the government employee can do their job without getting personally bankrupted. If they genuinely did something wrong (as in breaking procedures, not breaking the law) they'll get disciplined or even fired.
  
  Because cops get qualified immunity and it has the word "immunity" in it everyone with a beef against police ignored the word "qualified" and started screaming that it was evil and means government employees can get away with felonies. That's not true. If the aforementioned mail carrier rocks up, decides you suck, and hits your mailbox with a baseball bat, then threatens to beat you to a pulp they're going to face criminal charges. Qualified immunity simply does not apply for crimes committed regardless of if they were done on the clock or in uniform.
  
  Before a bunch of brain-dead people off their meds start bringing up specific cases where cops weren't charged for specific actions that were either possibly or outright illegal please look at those cases for issues with the prosecutors handling them. They are always because a grand jury failed to indict, not because of qualified immunity.

- Terrorist acts are illegal, but being associated with domestic terrorist organizations is not illegal in the United States. Affiliation with hate groups has been found by our courts to be protected under the 1st amendment. That being said any radical group not associated with white supremacist ideology is going to get be actively pursued by the US intelligence apparatus extrajudicially.
  
  13
- What? They have had periods of high interest and low interest. It has never been illegal to be a member lol
  
  Being a member of the kkk being illegal in America, pfft, who would arrest you? The cop in the hood next to you? Lol

  Some of those that work forces, are the same that burn crosses

While you would think that they would have figured out that would be a good idea to rebrand by this point, I'm really glad that they're too stupid to actually do so. It's good to be able to identify which ones are the assholes on sight.

12
Why hide the details at the bottom? Seems like they're asking to be doxxed

25
- Not gonna recruit for them
  
  52
  
  That's a tough call, on one hand recruiting (obviously). On the other, we could set up a bot to spam the number to hell and back so they can't get any actual calls

- Listen, if your name is associated with the "Klanline" phone number I don't think you care if people call you a racist online and post your home address.
  
  23
  
  I'd argue that it wouldn't even be doxxing to show it, personally. They put out the flier with their number on it, how is me posting a picture online any different from posting the flyer for a local pizza place with the number visible? Seems to me if it's on the flier it's now public info.

- The details at the bottom show Kentucky address and numbers.

Lol. The Proud Boys. When I first heard it I thought they were talking about a gay porno....

34
- If you refer to them as boylove enthusiasts, they lose their goddamned minds.
  
  2
- I always pictured them being really proud of having shit themselves. Just waddling about, pants full of shit, with big smiles on their faces. Happy boys, who reek of shit.

Am burning that paper and reporting this to the police

If I were in charge, I would fast track citizenship for every Haitian in Springfield that wants it. In 7 days you could be a permanent citizen.

22
- I've been wanting a democratic president to do this my whole life. If fuckers wanna pretend the democrats are turning the country over to immigrants, let's play ball.

  Lifelong resident here, majority demographic, I'm game letsdoit.

  Fuck yeah, let's do it. We are a country of immigrants, it's time us white folks take a backseat

Seeing this makes me sad.

I think we may be about to see an endorsement of the kkk by a major republican politician.

21
- It’ll likely be another “good people on both sides” type of endorsement. The type of thinly veiled support without outright stating that he supports them. Weasel words, so opponents can’t say he outright endorsed them. Because if they try, he can just go “that’s not what I meant” and dismiss it.
  
  3
- Good people need to stand by?

"these beast of the fields"

Fucking dimwits

16
Didn't know that the KKK considered Haiti part of the USA. Since they specifically named them as not foreigners.

Yeah yeah, I know that it's just them being dumb, but it still gives me amusement how dumb they are.

15
These LIES (as JD Vance Said) have NO RESPONSIBILITY for this Quiet town now being Overrun with Racists! In fact it's the DEMOCRATS fault for allowing this in Far Right Ohio!

1
Shitty if true. I hope they fuck around and find out.

12
- It's astounding that nothing prevents them from fucking around in the first place
  
  17
  
  I remember in the 90s when I was 14 I had a petition I was trying to get people to sign, that would push for a bill to allow for legal violence against the kkk and nazis. This was 1997ish.
  
  Literally everyone thought I was joking. Some laughed. Some scolded me. One old man said he killed nazis in the 1940s, and it was disrespectful to mock his efforts. I said "I'm not mocking you. I want to kill any nazis that may arise in the 1990s." He still didn't believe/appriciate me.
  
  13
  
  They have enough men, in the streets, in government, in law enforcement. We don't.
  
  5
- And also completely expected.
  
  We'll likely reach German Nazi levels of hateful sentiment this century almost ten years ahead of them. Our 1935 will be somewhere around 2025-2029. They're not going to go, "Oh, nevermind, we're actually okay with the immigrants now. Forget all the mass deportation, back the blue, and returning lynching threats. We're good."
