#GOBALDFORBLM: 4Chan Dupes White Women Into Becoming Skinheads to Show ‘Solidarity’ with Black Women
A hilarious troll.
The trolling collective at 4Chan has struck pay dirt yet again, this time with a troll job duping white female allies of Black Lives Matter to shave their heads.
“Get #goBaldforBLM trending on Twitter and Instagram,” the 4Chan post reads. “The idea is to get women, particularly white women, to shave their heads for BLM. Guilt them into getting rid of their straight “white” hair to show “solidarity” with black women.”
This ridiculous idea took off immediately and the hashtag was trending on Twitter as of Friday.
The only thing I care about today, tomorrow and in the future is #blacklivesmatter. #goBaldforBLM #ChicagoProtests pic.twitter.com/KaVQTppr4d
This may be 4Chan’s best work since convincing the world that the “OK” symbol was a gesture promoting white supremacy.
That troll job was so effective that people have had their lives ruined by...
Felon Charged with Murdering Retired Police Captain David Dorn in Riots
A convicted felon has been charged with murdering St. Louis, Missouri, 77-year-old retired police captain David Dorn during riots in the city last week.
The St. Louis Police Department announced Sunday that 24-year-old convicted felon Stephan Cannon has been arrested and charged with first-degree murder, first-degree robbery, first-degree burglary, armed criminal action, and unlawfully possessing a firearm after he allegedly murdered Dorn.
On June 2, according to police, Dorn was guarding Lee’s Pawn and Jewelry in St. Louis while riots, fires, and looting broke out. Surveillance footage, police said, shows Dorn arriving at the pawn shop, which had already been looted by Cannon and other men.
That is when Cannon can allegedly be seen on the footage approaching the corner of the pawn shop with a gun, and it is at this time that Dorn was shot, killed, and left on the sidewalk bleeding.
While searching Cannon’s residence, St. Louis police officers recovered a TV that had been looted from the pawn shop that night. Cannon is currently being held without bail.
Dorn had served nearly 40 years with the St. Louis Police Department before ...
University agrees that black students should be graded differently
Students at the University of Washington are demanding that black students should not face difficult exams and time constraints because they are too “busy fighting for [their] rights to sit down and study”.
And the university thinks it is a good idea: It is currently advising professors to pass black students on the basis of race after an online petition gathered more than 26 000 signatures.
“You need to encourage and demand professors to accommodate their black students during this time. If UW truly understands our pain, UW will be a part of alleviating it,” the petition states.
Nicole McNichols, UW Psychology Professor told Campus Reform that she supported the move. “Obviously, I support the petition and absolutely believe the accommodations it requests should be honored by all faculty. Students need all of the support and compassion we can afford to give them right now.”
The email sent by McNichols to her students reads: “First, the remaining homework chapters are being put into review mode. Everyone will receive full points. Second, I have decided to drop everyone’s lowest exam score. This means that you may opt-out of taking Exam 3 if you just don’t feel up to it, (or if you [are] happy with your scores from exam 1 and 2).”
UW Senior Director of Media Relations Victor Balta said that all staff were asked “to consider...
