      You’ve got to be kidding? They’re appropriating Electric Boogaloo (a film about break dancing and the black community) as their slogan? That is wrong on so many levels.

        Not only that, according to the wikipedia article OP linked:

        “The boogaloo movement has created logos and other imagery incorporating [igloo] snow huts and Hawaiian prints based on these derivations.”

        If white supremacy was so “supreme”, why are these morons using Indigenous-based iconography for their movement I wonder. They’ll claim it’s to “fly under the radar”, but that just makes them look even more smooth brained.

        A few years ago Republicans were also dancing to System of a Down’s Killing in the Name Of song as if it was pro-them.

        Never underestimate the amount of stupid and innapropriate conservatives are capable of.
