#MisfitMemo: 5/30/17

5/29/2017

Welcome to the #MisfitMemo, a weekly rewind of some of our best (worst?) tweets and post on the hottest* topics.
​Hope you enjoy!
*Sorry to disappoint the drama llamas, but a particular topic will not be recapped.


After the tragic terror attack in Manchester, the response from the media and the left was predictable.

The only defense against "Lone Wolf" attacks is a wary, alert populace.

A populace in the UK which is now restrained by hate speech laws.

'Well we don't want to be seen as racist or Islamaphobic so declare martial law I guess *shrug emoji*' https://t.co/U5KIjechyp

— CDP □⚾□ (@cdpayne79) May 23, 2017

This is the best response. Free speech is the real terrorism. https://t.co/8OUfkBC2Q9

 Now Congressman Gianforte lost his temper and body slammed a reporter. People on all sides presented takes so hot, everyone's hair was on fire. It mostly added up to: Punching Nazi not as bad as punching reporter. Also: DONALD TRUMP'S AMERICA, Y'ALL!

Politics today:
1. Assess who initiated violence.
2. Assess who is recipient of violence.
3. Decide whether to excuse violence based on 1&2

OK, I know this is hard for some of you, but I'll make it as simple as possible "DON'T PUNCH PEOPLE IN THE FACE."

— Alex F. Baldwin (@VerumVulnero1) May 25, 2017

Physically assaulting the press is unjustifiable.

— Dan □□ (@danieltobin) May 25, 2017

Assaulting a reporter is indefensible. People pearl clutching that have justified other assaults? GMAFB. It's all bad, y'all. All of it.

— J.R. Holmsted (@JHolmsted) May 25, 2017

I wrote a thing once for @MisfitsPolitics. I stand by it today.https://t.co/mxioYKCH2s

A local burrito business in Portland was shut down amidst cries of cultural appropriation and stealing. Because ya know, the owners are not Mexican and took notes on how to make tortillas!

These "food appropriation" types don't seem to understand that all food cultures appropriate from each other. https://t.co/gMG8y3TFNI

— Mo Mo (@molratty) May 29, 2017

Should white people even *eat* burritos? Should they visit Mexico, or buy Mexican things or even befriend Mexican people?!?? https://t.co/qmTToq3aiG

— Alex F. Baldwin (@VerumVulnero1) May 29, 2017

This is so idiotic. Portland, furry parks? Food appropriation? What the hell is wrong with you? https://t.co/WpQqFD2d45

— J.R. Holmsted (@JHolmsted) May 28, 2017

This is bananas. They forced a business to close because white people served Mexican cuisine. https://t.co/GCj1oHwBgF

— Andrew Lynch (@GentlemanRascal) May 24, 2017

A Minnesota bill proposed to outlaw the practice of FGM failed. We were all horrified & Mo made all the points.

You feminists make me sick. Standing by while girls are being mutilated. This is pure misogyny. LITERAL misogyny.

— Mo Mo (@molratty) May 24, 2017

Marching topless or with vagina costumes. Sending politicians your period blood. Whining like a bunch of fucking babies...

— Mo Mo (@molratty) May 24, 2017

You want to march for women's rights? March your pussy hats to Minnesota and do something useful for once.

Memorial Day had most of us in a patriotic mood, remembering and paying tribute to those that gave all.

On behalf of a grateful nation; to those brave citizen soldiers who were the first casualties in the war on terror, thank you.#MemorialDay pic.twitter.com/zt9uzo9kx8

1Lt Laura Piper, perished over northern Iraq, 14 April 1994. RIP my friend. https://t.co/3jVFfCEW6N#MemorialDayWeekend @jaketapper pic.twitter.com/ojomy20xUM

"Hurrah for the flag of the free!
May it wave as our standard forever,
The gem of the land and the sea,
The banner of the right."

— MisfitPolitics (@MisfitsPolitics) May 29, 2017

"Let despots remember the day
When our fathers with mighty endeavor
Proclaimed as they marched to the fray"

— MisfitPolitics (@MisfitsPolitics) May 29, 2017

"That by their might and by their right
It waves forever."

Miscellaneous Misfit musings...

We need answers as to why you think the government deserves to have such extensive documentation on citizens. https://t.co/TRen1dImpf

— J.R. Holmsted (@JHolmsted) May 24, 2017

Half this country is employed either creating busy work for the government or dealing with busy work from the government.

If policing speech and making accusations of phobias and "isms" is the new "pure conservativism", I'll pass.

— Dan □□ (@danieltobin) May 26, 2017

Fuck all the way off @voxdotcom. Marines and their masculinity are why you have the freedom to write this offensively useless drivel. https://t.co/EiShXAe4NB

— Kayla (@VixenRogue) May 29, 2017

This is all some mighty powerful horseshit. Do not listen to the crazies, folks. Fucking Iran? AYFKM? Hay-soos! https://t.co/9J0vmdSMm3

The Helenization of Rome, for just one example. Constantinople. All the importing and exporting of culture around the world.

— Andrew Lynch (@GentlemanRascal) May 24, 2017

When you're a leftist, racism is the nail to your hammer. If everything is racist (which this wasn't), then nothing is. Stupid leftists. https://t.co/bTfTZykk2L

— LunaticRex (@LunaticRex) May 30, 2017

Bradd Jaffy must've been horrible at the game "Telephone" in elementary school https://t.co/sPuvqbgtxy
