Postscripts on Roy Moore: Racism, religious bigotry and mindless jingoism.

Not to mention a tantrum from the failure himself.

Roy Moore: Battle Continues Against Those Who Would ‘Take From Us Our Country’
By Peter Montgomery | December 14, 2017 11:37 am

The defeated-but-not-conceded Roy Moore released a video statement on Wednesday in which he portrayed his failed Senate campaign as a “very important battle for the future of our country.”

Moore’s rejection by Alabama voters has not diminished his sense of his own importance. In his remarks, he appropriated language from Franklin Delano Roosevelt, Abraham Lincoln, the Declaration of Independence and the Bible to portray his campaign as part of a battle against spiritual forces of darkness and for the future of western civilization:

The worst part about Jesse Lee Peterson is he is black.
But since most blacks reject him, his racism and religious bigotry, he's throwing a tantrum too.

Jesse Lee Peterson: Roy Moore’s Loss Is Proof That Black People ‘Do Not Believe In God’
By Kyle Mantyla | December 14, 2017 10:42 am

Right-wing radio host Jesse Lee Peterson reacted to Roy Moore’s loss in the Senate election in Alabama on Tuesday by declaring on his program yesterday that the result was proof that black voters do not believe in God.

Peterson was outraged that black voters in Alabama overwhelmingly supported Moore’s Democratic opponent, Doug Jones, and declared that it was evidence that they are “brainwashed, dumbed-down, demoralized, corrupt people ” who “do not believe in truth at all, not one iota.”

And a genuine racist pig needs to weigh in, of course.

After Roy Moore Loss, ‘Baked Alaska’ Urges White People To ‘Have Babies’ & Form A ‘Coalition’
By Jared Holt | December 14, 2017 12:26 pm

Tim Gionet, who operates online under the moniker “Baked Alaska,” urged white people to have more children and to “form some sort of coalition” following Roy Moore’s loss because white people are “the ones that are picking the right people.”

Gionet, who had taken a brief hiatus from his prior status as an alt-right flunky to stream himself playing video games and preaching the gospel, returned to political commentary to provide real-time commentary on the results of Alabama’s special election to fill the
Senate seat once held by Attorney General Jeff Sessions. When news broke that Republican candidate Roy Moore had been defeated by Democrat Doug Jones, Gionet began ranting about black voters after one of his viewers posted statistics that detailed black voters’ overwhelming support of Jones in a Discord chat server.
