Please tell me that nobody actually believes this stuff....

This rather, um, interesting website came to my attention via a LiveJournal community I'm a member of.

I would be most gracious if someone would reassure me that this site doesn't actually represent anyone's actual opinions.

Please?

Well, it must represent the opinion of the owner.

Seriously, an attempt to incite violence and hate is vey strong. I'm just not sure who is really promoting the hate.

Oh, dear. I was hoping to say otherwise, but I definitely know some people who believe such nonsense.

BTW, DON'T click on the message board link, unless you want to be scared S-less!

Now I'm going to be looking over my shoulder all day.

Ahhh! Scary pic!

I really do hope that site is a joke, but I get the feeling it isn't, kind of like the abortion fetish, and the AIDS chasers.

I thought this pic from the site was a bit ... unusual.

Apparently that sites been around for a while, but it's so over the top it really does read like a spoof site. I wouldn't be shocked if it turns out to be hosted by some white guy poking fun at black people.

You can't very well take a website seriously where the words DAAAAAMM and DUH appear numerous times...

Wow, I was about to make a post saying how gullible you all are but now I'm not so sure.

According to a Whois search, the site has indeed been around since 1998; something I thought was a lie.

Now obviously, by looking at pages like this, we can infer that the site is at least somewhat tongue-in-cheek. I mean, those pictures are meant to be funny.

The site, however, is registered to one

Warning too little too late. I was going to go to bed soon, so much for that. So much for getting sleep for the rest of the week. That's the most scary thing I've ever seen!

As for the site...the ignorant are obviously still out there.

I think it's real. I've seen some of the freak site pics of incredibly fat people and that's about what they look like. Why he/she is on the sidewalk I have no clue.

Mmm.
I was clicking through, taking it as a weird, over-the-top joke, and right after the page with the "new book" The Failure of Black Feminist Women they go on to talk about school shootings and there is a very graphic picture of the bodies of Eric Harris and Dylan Kelbold. I completely wasn't expecting it, just thought I'd mention it so no one else was surprised like that.

Almost as good as www.lesbianstudies.com

It takes a while to figure out if they're serious.

Fake. I first saw it a few years ago in a magazine for the British advertising industry. If I remember rightly, its a sculpture done as a promo piece by an artist who specialises is weird objects for advertising photography.

And yes, these lesbian Feminist witches first recruited and used black women to promote the Feminist "attitude" the same way black women have been used as lactating mammys since slavery days!!! AMEN?
I protest - I never have, and never will recruit a lactating mammy. Our policy is an all-volunteer lactating mammy corps.

I found it odd that the father of Venus and Serena was responsible for their tennis prowess, but Tiger Woods AND his dad were responsible for his golf game.

Hmmm.

White male here, checking in. I feel We are being unfairly slighted in our dominating role of Keeping Down the Black Man. Why is it that women -- both Black and White -- are getting all the credit from Blacktown?

AMEN?
