This is a public notice to all of my readers. Reports are coming in that The Backlash™ was spotted near the internet safe zones of the University Illinois. Reports are still coming in, but it appears someone associated with the university may have said some mean things on Facebook about rampaging black students on that campus.
A Facebook page ostensibly created for an audience at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign called “Illini White Students Union” has drawn fire after it characterized the national Black Lives Matter movement as “terrorism.”
Created Wednesday after a protest sympathetic to Black Lives Matter, the page declared itself “for white students of University of Illinois to be able to form a community and discuss our own issues as well as be able to organize against the terrorism we have been facing from Black Lives Matter activists on campus,” as the Daily Illini reported.
The page did not last long in its original incarnation, but was taken down after three hours. It has since been revived here.
“We recognize the right to free speech, and we encourage you to exercise that right when you see examples of racism, discrimination or intimidation on our campus,” Interim Chancellor Barbara Wilson, who called the page “extremely disturbing,” wrote in a message Thursday to the student body.
Got that? When blacks go bananas on campus it is the most beautiful thing in the world. When a honky posts mean things on Facebook, well, they need to be stopped because they are extremely disturbing.
In an anonymous message to the News-Gazette, the page’s administrator discussed Black Lives Matter.
“We feel they disrupt student daily life and activity far too much,” the message read, saying that movement “marginalizes” white students. “… We are in the United States and not Africa and we don’t desire to have an African flag on campus.”
Given that there’s probably a 10-to-1 hoax to non-hoax ratio on campus, it is a good idea to assume the anonymous administrator here is a black guy, probably a professor at the university. Check that. Probably a black female professor. For some reason they are the most common perpetrator of hoaxes on campus. Even so, it is pretty tepid stuff.
A recent post was a clip from the 1998 film “American History X,” in which Edward Norton plays a white supremacist. In the clip, billed as “revelant to all Ferguson news,” Norton’s character denounces the 1992 riots in Los Angeles.
“It’s a bunch of people grabbing any excuse they can find to go and loot a store, nothing more,” Norton says. “… Lincoln freed the slaves what, like, 130 years ago. How long does it take you to get your act together?”
The amusing part here is the quote is not actually on the page. Instead the WaPo reporter fished it out of the interwebs. If I were Steve Sailer, I’d assume that was not an accident.
While this was certainly eyebrow-raising, the original page was even more provocative.
“Feel free to send in pictures you take of any black protestors on the quad so we know who anti-whites are,” one message read, as FOX 55 reported.
According to a student reporter, protesters were particularly concerned that they were being targeted.
“One of the parts on the page particularly concerning to students is that they were taking pictures from the rally of the main quad and identifying students in attendance to identify the ‘anti-whites,’” Marijo Enderle, a 20-year-old senior at the university, said in a telephone interview. Enderle also pointed out that “there hasn’t been any indication that it has been a university student” who created the page.
My recommendation to the black lives matter types is they start wearing masks at their riots. Maybe dress up as the old Black Panthers and carry fake guns. That will scare those honky oppressors!
I like this closing bit from the WaPo story.
And in 1991, the New York Times discussed a similar group at the University of Minnesota.
“I have no desire to harm the non-white races,” senior Thomas A. David, who founded the group, said at the time. “I simply think it would help everyone to separate.” He added: “I don’t want to be a mud race in this country, and I will fight to the death against that.”
Again, If I’m Steve Sailer I wonder if this is code to let people know the reporter is not as batshit crazy as it would first appear. It’s the magic signal to let the outside world know he is being held against his will. If that last time The Backlash™ showed up was 1991 – 25 years ago – one has to wonder if maybe it really even exists. But, that’s crazy talk. We all know the greatest threat to humanity is The Backlash™. We have always been at war with The Backlash™.
I don’t think the webpage is a hoax, because it is so tepid. The “I’m going to kill all blacks” stuff was a hoax though, tweeted by a young black guy. I’m still waiting to find out about that Muslim in Florida whose house was shot at.
Anyone wonder how all of a sudden, the Black Live Matter Nazis are all over the place and very active on college campuses? Anyone wonder how there is are many demonstrations by SEIU funded and led “workers” to raise the minimum wage for everyone to $15/hour Do NOT think for a moment Obama does not have a claw in all of this. He has somehow communicated to his black Nazi storm troopers – the Black Lives Matter Sturm Abteilung – the BLMSA – to raise hell and go on their book burning, hate whitey campaigns. It is no coincidence this… Read more »
Mark Twain’s advice for raising teenagers: “When a child turns 12, he should be kept in a barrel and fed through the bung hole, until he reaches 16…at which time you plug the bung hole.” “Why do children want to grow up? Because they experience their lives as constrained by immaturity and perceive adulthood as a condition of greater freedom and opportunity. But what is there today, in America, that very poor and very rich adolescents want to do but cannot do? Not much: they can “do” drugs, “have” sex, “make” babies, and “get” money (from their parents, crime, or… Read more »
“Blacks go bananas”, ehhh??? That’s clearly raciss!
I saw the first “backlash” headline in my daily paper, the Daily Hampshire Worker…err Gazette this morning. Such delicate flowers.
Yes, we have Backlash here in the UK too. Following the deaths of 130 (and probably more as the badly injured don’t make it) in Paris, the local BBC news channel was quick to tell us that a muslim woman in a supermarket was approached by another female who nudged her arm and said she was “a terrorist” and another, surprisingly unbearded muslim male told the camera that people had made unkind comments about his friends which hurt his feelings. So out of a region of some seven or eight million people, two muslims had been slightly offended. Not killed,… Read more »
Seems like the entire concept of sending a bunch of nineteen year olds to live together and learn some things has seriously jumped the shark. Maybe it is time to just lock each one in a separate room, slide food, an I-pad, and an X-Box under the door, and be done with it. Demonstrated good behavior means one can come out of the room for an hour a day and mingle with others, go to the animal shelter and pet the dogs and cats, or hit the nearest Starbucks.
