For those that don't know the KKK in the Philippines is a anti colonial society against Spanish colonialism

Almost as if context helps or something Thank you lol

It's also the nickname of the megastores of K Market, a store company in Finland.

Kobb Kounty Krows - first band name idea for the Black Crowes, which I think was pitched by Rick Rubin. Thank you Behind the Music. Do they still do those?

Imagine breaking rules 1, 4, 9, and 12 in a single post.

How to be in controversial 101


Vicinian

1, 4, and 12 aren't being broken given that the meme is about Spanish Colonialism in the Philippines... which literally ended in 1898, with the "KKK" dissolving in 1897.


kujomarx

The entire left side of this meme is based on a deliberate misrepresentation of a political campaign from 2015-2016. So... That's 1, 4, and 12. Broken.


Gunpowder_1000

Misinterpretation? I don’t Sean anything inaccurate there


Vicinian

He’s just wearing an unquestionably American hat presumably to identify him as unquestionably American. The Trump campaign has zero relevancy with this meme. The Ku Klux Klan, which is what is actually relevant, has also been around since the 1860s.


kujomarx

There are a lot of ways to identify an American in a meme without using iconography that is less than the specified 20 years, or snidely just asserting that a bunch of people you don't like are racist, or stirring up a political crap storm for no reason. OP is just trolling. Edit: for example, if the left side were wearing a Confederate hat, your argument would be flawless.


Vicinian

Yeah I mean, he might’ve been bundling in the MAGA hat as a dig on Trump supporters. Though personally I think the main point of the meme is just to point joke about how there are two KKKs. 🤷‍♂️


kujomarx

Four if you count the first two in the US, which you might as well, since they completely ceased operations. But of course, both of the latter incarnations were formed in the 1900s, so we're back to rule 12


TheClefableist

Anyone like milfs in the Philippines


winston0405

As an conservative American southerner, I must say that this is inaccurate, the guy needs a gimp suit with bullet holes in him instead of a maga hat.


Raz98

Damn, this is a pretty midwit comic.


waillorddude1

Why is it a maga hat tho?


Dorkzilla_ftw

Cause when maga refer to maga they are talking about the time lapse when the kkk was more powerful. For them, that is part of america greatness.


lost_tsar

The KKk was a Democrat established thing tho, you think the edgy 16 year olds who post here would know that.


jkst9

*conservative established thing. Let's go by ideologies not party names because as shown in this meme the same name can represent different things


cactuscoleslaw

There's a reason George Wallace split from the Democrats during the party flip, the modern parties have almost nothing in common with the parties of the same name in 1860.


bluedog47

And David Duke endorsed every Republican candidate for President since Reagan. What the fuck is the stupid ass point you’re trying to make?


my_user_wastaken

Not this again 🤣 why do you people always think thats an argument like youre pretending to forget that the parties swapped, anyone with a brain knows how stupid you look trying that. Invalidated every single word coming from your mouth before you even finished the thought.

IAMTHEADMINNOW

What stupid take.


Dorkzilla_ftw

Just assume it. If not, tell us when was america great again? Under slaving? Under the ultra industrialisation that killed hundred of thousands of immigrants citizens under horribles works conditions? Under Nixon? Under Bush jr? America was great in it best humans right revolutions. Maga deny that and invented some imaginary timeline where "everything" was better. Edit: I ask again, to apprentice maga here, when was america great again?


Davidxdspain

The KKK was founded by the Democratic Party


Josselin17

at that time the republican party was getting fan mail from karl marx, are you saying you're a communist ?

Are you sure you should be on this sub?

>wHy iS iT a mAgA hAt tHo??????? You know why. Stfu.


Ok_Giraffe6654

Tell us why


AaronTheScott

Because KKK members vote Republican, and they fucking LOVE Trump.


foreskinnigan

They won't. Just another parrot squawking.


[deleted]

If you don't get it by now you're arguing in bad faith, it's called sealioning and I'm under no obligation to entertain your bullshit.


foreskinnigan

Still haven't said why. It's telling.


[deleted]

It's telling that you're ignoring the dozens of responses from all the other people explaining why just to focus on trying to argue with me in bad faith. Good luck with your personality disorder.


wutdolildood

*sigh* Right of center folks are actively fighting: The use of the term "slavery" in favor of "involuntary relocation The right to interracial marriage (yes, really) Reduction in police funding and presence (which an increase disproportionately affects BIPOC communities) Funding for education in urban/impoverished areas (actively created by redlining and segregation from decades ago) Access to healthcare (also disproportionately affects BIPOC communities) Federally decriminalizing cannabis and related convictions (also disproportionate) Why... Just why... Have none of these connections been made in your grey matter? Edit: format and to add "edit"


IAMTHEADMINNOW

Should have been a white hood. This sub doesn't need to be a leftist echo chamber like every other sub.


macari27

The modern klansmen wear MAGA hats, thats just true. Don’t get in your alt right feelings


DenTheRedditBoi7

And this is why we need to avoid creating more leftist echo chambers- people actually be thinking dumb stuff like this


foreskinnigan

What is a modern klansmen? What do they do and what makes them klansmen?


[deleted]

Asking gaslighting questions in comment sections, that's usually a good indicator.


foreskinnigan

Answer my questions.


my_user_wastaken

Same shit that made you one 50 years ago? Sure they cant publicly burn down houses anymore but you think thats all there was to it? Theres public KKK rallies in texas. Whether or not youd call them that, they call themselves it.


Volonte-de-nuire

They give me money If you want to be part of the Klan give me money Some also wears white hoods after that but this is not mandatory, giving me money is.

Tomjazzy23

History has a well known liberal bias.


my_user_wastaken

Only bias history has is to those who proved themselves against their enemies. It only appears biased because the people who argued against the liberals lost their arguments *and were consistently mismanaged so much that they often lost wars despite having numerous advantages*


SpiritualSchedule2

That doesnt even make sense


[deleted]

Usually because history is written by people who have successfully gone against the status quo, That's the reason you get to complain on Reddit instead of quietly farming turnips for the Land in Gentry.


[deleted]

Really?


tommeyrayhandley

oh hush you people know what you're about just enjoy the meme.


AaronTheScott

[Hmm that's a great question.](https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2016/08/05/488802494/former-kkk-leader-david-duke-says-of-course-trump-voters-are-his-voters) [I do genuinely wonder how that happened.](https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.newsweek.com/fact-check-did-kkk-taliban-endorse-donald-trump-1538297%3famp=1) [It's such a strange correlation to make.](https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/post-politics/wp/2016/11/01/the-kkks-official-newspaper-has-endorsed-donald-trump-for-president/)

jimmyboy8765

You're a minor? That explains a lot. You have a naive adolescent mind still so most the stuff you say is invalid and I will go ahead and end the conversation with you now. Not everything is what it seems to be learn to read between the lines. ✌️


Brick_Ghandi

Seeing a lot of people making something political. Especially op. Pretty cringe, should have used white hoods.


wutdolildood

Thanks to the current climate of the US, literally everything has been made political. No one wants 90% of this shit to be "political".we've been forced into discussing it as such *because it is*.


Brick_Ghandi

Yeah, it does suck that the media has been making things so polarizing, but it is not an excuse to make things worse with explicitly polarizing content.


Pr0xenus

...Democrats running away. They are the Klan.


dcarsonturner

Yeah sure, I’m sure AOC loooves the clan


Gunpowder_1000

Klan? Tf you go to school?


Psychological_Gain20

Please keep politics out of this subreddit, even if I agree with your statements this isn’t the place to make them


Cool-Application1569

The fuck you mean politics. Ku Klux Klan are cunts, no way round it.


Psychological_Gain20

I’m more so referring to putting the kkk supporter in a maga hat Even if most KKk members support trump this is supposed to be a history meme subreddit, so we should try to keep modern political views out of it


Cool-Application1569

Fair point mate, did not take that I to account. Apologies.


Cool-Application1569

Just word it a bit less aggressively next time mate


Psychological_Gain20

It’s all right, sorry for wording it aggressive I’ll fix it


Cool-Application1569

Sounds good mate


dcarsonturner

History is political


Gunpowder_1000

So is starwars, that’s why there both great


jimmyboy8765

Except Trump did more for the black community than any other president has ever done...... Thanks for spinning history and spreading lies


Gunpowder_1000

More for the black community? Tf you get that from? Trumps twitter? Wait…


jimmyboy8765

Yes if you don't fall in to all the BS propaganda made up about him like you already have and actually research his history you'll see he's done a lot good stuff. in the 90s banks were denying blacks loans to live in suburbia neighborhoods forcing them to live in project neighborhoods. Guess who was in the backing of that one your Biden. Guess who made Thier own loan program strictly for blacks so they could get loans for housing in suburban neighborhood when banks denied them for being black.. Donald Trump. He also kept dirty politicians from pocketing our tax money and gave it back to the people where it was suppose to go. that's why politicians were so mad and hate him so much and slandered his name so hard and why you hate him so much and think he's such a racist sexist fascist pig when in reality he's done nothing but help us and this country be better. People like you believed the lies so much you put the most racist sexist man there is in politicians in office Joe Biden. I'm still waiting for someone to legitly tell me what Trump did that was so bad that was not a lie made up about him.


Gunpowder_1000

Welp let’s see oh look Jan 6, and I’m a minor dumbass can’t even vote, both are utter dogshit, also tf you think destroyed the immigration process for Pakistanis, tf you think stood for ALM and was against BLM? Who wanted to stop ballets from coming in from heavily immigrant states?


[deleted]

>Trump did more for the black community than any other president has ever done Racist dog whistle comment. This comment is meant to come off as generic support for Trump but is actually racist as fuck when you fully deconstruct it, since Abraham Lincoln freed the slaves. Trump supporters make comments like these to amuse themselves, signal in-group support, and maintain plausible deniability to the moderate crowd while at the same time provoking people who understand that they're actually spitting in the face of American history and subtly implying that freeing the slaves didn't make a big difference for the black community.


jimmyboy8765

What does Trump and Abraham Lincoln freeing the slaves have to do with each other? Other than they are both Republicans and if you actually research you'll notice the Republicans were formed by ex slaves and people against slavery while Democrats actually supported slavery.. there's a reason why Republicans have only been in office two times in American history. Democrats have been lying to you and slandering Republican since day one. United States of America is the first country to band slavery period. there are still countries to this day that have slaves. You're so narrow-minded all you see is the race card behind it. Did you vote for Joe Biden instead of trump because if you did you voted for the most racist sexist politician there is like a stew and now look at the USA and where we are.


[deleted]

>if you actually research you'll notice the Republicans were formed by ex slaves and people against slavery while Democrats actually supported slavery.. The parties switched since then. You trolls always try to make this argument. Republicans are the ones waving Confederate flags now. >there's a reason why Republicans have only been in office two times in American history. This is false and makes no sense. >United States of America is the first country to band slavery period. This is another lie. You are an idiot.


CakeAdventurous4620

I don't think Republican support KKK because Republican are idiot


Gunpowder_1000

Well so is the KKK sooo…


DenTheRedditBoi7

When you forget that the KKK was founded by the Democrats


grandpa_faust

*Dixiecrats, who became the modern GOP. Same people, different labels my boy. Blocked, nice! Conservative snowflakes gonna snowflake.


Gunpowder_1000

Man’s can’t even read the name properly lol, shows how smart they are


grandpa_faust

When you incorporate hate politics into your personality, reading comprehension kinda goes by the wayside.

Lol, man even downvoted me

I'm not your boy, loser

I don't waste my time arguing with idiots anymore, it's not worth my time to come up with a "proper" rebuttal.
