‘I love Hitler’: Leaked messages expose Young Republicans’ racist chat

NEW YORK — Leaders of Young Republican groups throughout the country worried what would happen if their Telegram chat ever got leaked, but they kept typing anyway.

They referred to Black people as monkeys and “the watermelon people” and mused about putting their political opponents in gas chambers. They talked about raping their enemies and driving them to suicide and lauded Republicans who they believed support slavery.


I'd love to say this surprises me, but it does not in the slightest.

I used to be an internet edgelord, until I recognized that it doesn't matter if you aren't actually a bigot when you act like one online. The impact is the same, it makes the real ones feel more comfortable in their views.

I also came to this realization around age 16, and it sounds like these guys are in college...

The thing about being edgy is that it shouldn't necessarily imply a particular political bias but if it always goes One Direction that's indicative

Yep. I don't know about similar communities on Lemmy because I avoid them like the plague, but I've been on reddit long enough to know that r/conservative is famous for preemptively not allowing anyone who doesn't agree with them and immediately banning anyone if they go against the grain even a little bit, accusing them of being leftist infiltrators.

It's the only way they can maintain their hateful bubble and their persecution fetish.

It makes for a very predictable pattern whenever something happens that MAGAts would be expected to dislike. They stay silent about it until someone higher up shows them an acceptable response or viewpoint and they all fall in line for fear of being ousted.

lemmy.world

One thing that snapped me out of that phase was a psychology professor saying your actions define what you are.

I don't think there are as many edgelords anymore anyways. Since the Trump MAGA era nobody pretends. It's all out in the open now. You either are or you aren't. Nobody hides behind the "it's just a joke bro" stuff like in the older internet eras. The bigots aren't hiding their power level anymore.

Same story for me as well and changed around the same age. It’s all fun and games until you realize most of these guys are not in on the joke.

I’d love to say this surprises me, but it does not in the slightest.

100%. These assholes have been trained to gaslight and trot out nonsense about Robert Byrd being in the Klan like 100 years ago, or that Democrats were the real racists because of shit that happened before the 1960s, and completely ignoring (or lying about) things like the Southern Strategy and how the parties completely re-aligned since the Civil Rights era.

Thing is, I'm a white guy and I know how these motherfuckers talk when they think they are in a safe space. I grew up in an area that was overwhelmingly Republican, deeply racist and nearly 100% white.

They ain't fooling me, I can tell you that much. This ain't my first rodeo, I've heard all this shit before, and I've seen these mofos in action online since the BBS days, and shortly after that, the USENET days. I don't care what kind of rhetoric they try to dress their "movement" up with and it doesn't matter what protocol or platform they are on....their methods and tactics like employing the Gish Gallop should not fool anyone, either.

Same! I have the added pleasure of being a big, bearded, "straight-passing" gay man. I get to have really fun moments were the Republicans around me say despicable things about gays, I tell them I'm actually gay, then they trip all over themselves to explain how they're actually totally cool with the gays. I call them out for being racist when that happens too. Making them uncomfortable by calmly shining light on their own words is one of my favorite group activities.

I'm bi, but straight passing. I got that southern boy look and draw in my voice. I do hard labor and I'll jam out to some red dirt country music...and boy when I speak my.mind to folks like that, they don't know what to do. I understand how you feel. It's funny, but also annoying. Just cause we share the same pigmentation doesn't mean we share the same views.

4

Now that I'm an adult and in not such a red area, I do notice times when I'll get what I think are probably a few trial balloons. When I don't bite, they don't go any further. For example, some comment about "men in women's sports". Or how they will say they "identify as an attack helicopter". Or how they should "put on a wig and a dress" so they can go into the women's bathroom. That last one always amazes me, and I think I've heard it way too many times for it to be purely anecdotal. I do think the trans stuff is the go-to for this kind of thing as attacking trans is still considered mostly okay, and it's the gateway drug for the rest of it...

But back when I was a kid/teen/adolescent - in the 70s/80s/early 90s - wow, some of the stuff just said casually, nearly all the time - unbelievable, even back then.

and how the parties completely re-aligned since the Civil Rights era.

"Completely" is wrong. The economically progressive policy on one side and crony-capitalist on the other have not shifted places.

One can rather describe it in the "Nazi bar" terms, racists jumped from the Democrat "bar" to the Republican "bar" and changed it for their ideas, but only where the racist categories were not orthogonal.

Stole this description from the other post about this.

Thousands of private messages reveal young GOP leaders joking about gas chambers, slavery and rape.

Leaders of Young Republican groups throughout the country worried what would happen if their Telegram chat ever got leaked, but they kept typing anyway.

They referred to Black people as monkeys and “the watermelon people” and mused about putting their political opponents in gas chambers. They talked about raping their enemies and driving them to suicide and lauded Republicans who they believed support slavery.

William Hendrix, the Kansas Young Republicans’ vice chair, used the words “n--ga” and “n--guh,” variations of a racial slur, more than a dozen times in the chat. Bobby Walker, the vice chair of the New York State Young Republicans at the time, referred to rape as “epic.” Peter Giunta, who at the time was chair of the same organization, wrote in a message sent in June that “everyone that votes no is going to the gas chamber.”

I thought that at some point, but after encountering many real people in my life (doing all the human things, like breathing, eating, walking, sleeping, not an alien at all) I don't anymore. It doesn't fucking matter which consistent ethos a person has, all of them are fundamentally inconsistent due to human psychology or conflicts with the complexities of reality. And some of those suck donkey balls. Like National Socialism.

It's a quote, from a very popular movie.

And nihilism is not healthy, it sounds like you should talk to a professional, but all they're going to tell you is to get a hobby. Check out the library, lots of free/cheap starter hobbies.

Catching all sorts of strays lately.

Nihilist doesn't mean "is cool with murdering people"

2

On it's own, nothing really? As long as you don't let that nihilism justify making life worse for others.

Combined with racism and the rest of the bigotry on display in these leaked exchanges, I think it's useful to distinguish between someone whose ignorance has allowed them to be co-opted by bigotry against their own interests, and someone who justifies their bigotry because "nothing really matters". I also think it's useful to accuse them of not actually believing in anything when they're running a political movement. Especially if the target audience for that movement does have a belief that some things intrinsically matter (be it democracy or, more likely here, the christian faith).

I'll readily admit I was mainly trying to go for more than just "racist pieces of shit", while having a clear impression from the tone and content of the leaked exchanges that there is an undercurrent of nihilism that is, if not fueling them, then at least lubricating them. If you have a better suggestion I would love to hear it.

That's always the goal. If everyone is oppressed, but they get to participate in the oppression of others, they'll jump at the chance.

It's the fucked up social contract that fascist supporters have with their dear leader, support dear leader unconditionally and dear leader will declare a new group of people to be below the supporters in the social hierarchy. This giving the supporters license to oppress that group.

While the supporters don't like getting shit on from above, they take great pleasure from shitting on those below.

Fascism seems to require an "other" to work. Once you've destroyed all of the existing "others", the only thing left to do is to look inward and see whether those people who seemed like they were on your side were actually "others" all along.

11

And this is why fascism is inherently untenable in the long term - it becomes an ouroboros. It’s always a short-lived political philosophy as the reins keep getting tightened on who qualifies for the in-group until, eventually, those who supported it become part of the out-groups.

That's just it though. They hide the worst parts of their beliefs until they are in their safe space. In public they obfuscate their true beliefs with pandering and cliche language.

That's some serious mental gymnastics there - the fascists that keep showing their hand are going to end up fascists because the meanie smarty-pants liberals called them fascists, and that's the only reason they are fascists. Well, that, and most entertainment and universities and science and culture really are not overly friendly to the far right, and even might have - gasp - not attacked the already-marginalized. Those monsters. Yep, it's entirely the fault of the "woke" mind virus that the fascists became fascists who voted for other fascists. No other reason. Some blue-haired trans with too many face piercings stole their masculinity or something.

I don't think it's possible, within the context of a private chat, to take any particular string of words and declare them verboten. What matters is the context and meaning. If it's ironic or sarcastic? I don't really find it especially problematic personally.

My larger concern is more with the gradual erosion of irony which happens in some groups. I think this happens more on public forums and in large groups, say 4chan, than in private chats, but I don't have access to large numbers of private chats, so I can't know.

You don't need be worried if they have enough free speech and personal lee way to make off colored jokes while they build the machine to kill YOU with.

Oh, don't get me wrong. For these particular people, since they're my political opponents, I am glad that we can pounce on this slip-up that they made and get them cancelled. I just don't think there's anything objectively wrong with making politically incorrect jokes, and it'd be a double standard for me to think it'd permissible only if they were politicians I liked.

Of course, in 2025, we don't really have the luxury of trying to apply a consistent standard to our opponents. These days it seems like we have to take what we can get when it comes to political warfare. (/genuine, in case there was doubt.)

He then denied that I lived under communism or that I was even brown. I then told him I also hate capitalism for commiting genocide on my people, but the communists weren’t much better to the indigenous. He then told me I was again lying and that communists wouldn’t hurt natives.

I called him out on the racist view so I got banned

Edit: as an indigenous person I’ve seen the most racism out of the left these past two years than anytime and it’s concerning. Downvoting me as if it’s not real isn’t helping. Be better than MAGA.

Lord, thank you for our martyred friend Charlie Kirk. He brought truth to young folks dying of starvation of truth. We dont know why you let such evil befall such an undeserving person, but your ways are higher than ours. Bless his family and let his message be even louder than ever and reach more young folks than ever. Bless the shooter. Open his eyes and let him see his errors and may he become a new creation in Christ. Thank you Lord for your love. Amen

Dear Lord please punish Charlie for his sins against humanity. You may not exist, but if you did you would rain hellfire down upon the diseased organization known as Turning Point. An organization that created right wing hate propaganda dividing God's people along imaginary lines. There is no greater sin as to other and dehumanize people.

May Charlie's children learn the truth about their hateful mother and father and disown them before God. Only then can they join the imaginary kingdom of heaven.

May you turn the hearts who have been poisoned against their fellow man, in particular the hater and propagandist Soktopraegaeawayok. He knows not what he does and there is still time to save his soul from eternal damnation. I ask these things of you in the name of our made-up lord and savior Jesus Christ.

Lol, multiple times you admitted that you dont believe God, and mocked Him. Your empty words are only that, empty.

But I do sincerely pray that God will move in your life and that you will see truth. Amen.

Dear imaginary Lord, I pray to you to intervene right now in this hateful troll's heart. He denies you are imaginary and all your made-up glory. Please help him see the truth that you do not exist.

He knows not what he does because you never gave him the ability to think critically or examine his own beliefs. This is clearly your fault imaginary father. Every time this poor human prays they are only praying to their own empty ego.

I do sincerely ask that you work on their heart. Just as you did on mine helping me to see everyone has lied about you. The truth will set him free from the shackles of his own creation. Please imaginary lord and father do this so that they may find peace. Amen.

Another fuck nut neo-Nazi. The vast majority agreed it was wrong the racist bag of shit croaked. However he wanted sacrifices for his interpretation of 2A to continue and became part of his wish. As you know, Heinrich Himmler and Joseph Goebbels had families too.

None of them. OP is projecting, misinformed, suffering psychosis, or all three. Democratic politicians said that violence is wrong, and that they mourn for Charlie's family.

OP might be confusing reality with their own head canon, and should seriously consider going to a psychiatrist.

I'm asking for that exact reason. If that can't come up with actual names I assume they are trolling.

I'm assuming they are trolling. My thing is - even if you can find some actual Democratic politician that did....it doesn't even matter. It doesn't relate to this.

We also celebrated Hitler dying as a country. Fuck that nazi bitch, died in a school shooting like he needed to.

If I had to choose between a group who made fun of death of someone because of his extremely bigoted, sexist and racist views vs a group of people who have fun with the idea of sending people at large to gas chambers because of their race, I think the choice is clear. Next time come with a better "what about".

I’m afraid it would be too difficult to explain to you the difference between being a bigoted fascist, and “celebrating” the death of a bigoted fascist.

Not difficult for complexity (it’s really pretty simple), but difficult like explaining Norway to a dog.

No they didn't lol. Far leftist nuts did. Every federal democrat that made a statement said they hoped he would pull through and that political violence is never the answer.
