I did an advanced search and it came up zilch. I'm guessing privileges were revoked? If so, too bad.

Edited so the thread will load for everyone.

What happened?

ChitownKev, you're a great guy.

I happen to agree with all five posts that got hidden.

There's some seriously racist bullshit going on with that Catherina poster, on that twitter post. Some posters keep supporting her even though they appear to know about it. I have no idea what they're thinking, nor can I even speculate on it accurately. I don't know what the hell else to say here about it without getting this post hidden. I hope our buddy is back soon. I hope you & everyone can keep saying what they feel without getting hides.

Or a song. Beautiful Boy... John Lennon


More than that I will get a hide. Actually I may still get one.

I think that's what I'm going to do when I see an inane post.

Just type -- .

By the way, I love that John Lennon song.

I hope C K is reading here and see (and hear!) how much we appreciate him.

That song brings tears to my eyes and hope to my heart. Daddy helped make the monsters gone. He is on the run.

ChitownKev is a beautiful boy. Yes a man now. We have your back here Kev.

We can help Kev here.

lovemydog.

identical, all 3 hidden, so i will be silenced soon

I don't want to see anyone here silenced.

Is there a way to say the same thing without getting getting it hidden?

Like instead of saying 'Fuck Off!' say 'Freak Out!' or something like that?

All my hides are when I point out racism on DU.

Each time I have been hidden that has been why...

America is controlled by white people, white people dont like to hear they are racists.

For you ChitownKev. Hope to see you back soon.

I hope Kev likes it

I look forward to his contributions and links are always relevant and researched backing up his point. I've learned quite a bit from reading him.

He tells it like it is so good I find myself just nodding.

impossible not to.

Can you post a link to what happened??

it is! Kevin being honest as hell.

and her (rapidly shrinking number of) "supporters."

That thread was hands down the most epic thing I've seen this year. Started out as yet another "honor" thread (I swear the Honor dude must think he's Elton John or something. Did somebody appoint him to be the official "Honorer" of people?? I hope the next Honor thread he does turns out just like this one. It was one HELL of a read) and wound up being pwned by Troll Busters Inc.

And it's so funny how many different reasons people had for hating the sick, sad individual. The ridiculously over the top anti-Obama sentiment, the frequent fellating of Vladimir Putin, how s/he has come and gone as at least 3-4 different posters over the years -- every last one of them caught up in some epic bullshit drama. And just being an overall nasty, repulsive excuse for an individual.

Side note: (did you see that shit about her pretending to be her own sister??!!! That's some shit right there).

But because she spewed the correct amount of hate and "leftist" bullshit at the appropriate people, so many were so willing to overlook her really blatant, beond obvious and psychotic trolling and pat her head with how "valuable" she was here. But I guess her friends here had to swallow alot of crap so that they could say that they had one genuine, actual black person on their team. Sad. So very, very sad.

I cannot believe the hoops people are willing to jump through to convince themselves that this person is some type of my victim. You did see the thread this moring, I take it. Ahhh! Our Dear Brother Ivan came to tell us that Death Threat Guy has found her and threatened her after she posted the link to her twitter for us to see. Right before her diatribe she posted there on twitter. My oh my. After I trashed gdp, another came up in gd. Had they not locked that I would have been forced to trash gd as well. Cannot take the discussion of that person.

I once was attacked by this lady on here about someone calling her a self hating something or other. I wonder what she thinks about this here, since she was sooooo offended for her.

The pretending to be her sister was a revelation as I had known nothing about this person ever nor had I had any interaction with her. Imagine my surprise when I was called out as being her reason for leaving. Then the twitter. Too much focus on me by an absolute stranger for my taste. I barely knew she existed.

group propped her up as some sort of goddess is probably the funniest thing I've seen all month.

Where is the Brother Ivan post?? Is he back now??

PLEASE TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK.

Gone for months and comes back just to get caught up in that woman's drama. He should have just stayed gone.

And saw that EarlG had to come and lock it. That's embarrassing. He really should have just stayed gone.

It's in my trash can even though it's locked.

and apparently have been so for years.

I think sometimes admin deletes them from my box before I can see them. Mirt bans them and the messages dissappear. He hates me. Do does FYWM (fuck yeah white men). He send me messages all over the internet. Everybody in mirt knows about DTG (death threat guy). I hope he gets caught by somebody soon. He needs extra help.

Look below me.

house niggers!

The same qualities for which we are reviled and tried to made to feel ashamed for, she is being LAUDED for by a clueless little clique. Because according to that "Catherina is a beautiful black woman" OP, it's all part of some grand Negro tradition to call black people house nigger. EVEN WHEN YOU HAVE FAR MORE MONEY THAN THEY DO.

I've never seen people so full of it. It's okay to be rich as hell and live in another country and have just found out you were black a few years ago as long as you hate all the appropriate people (which apparently includes every single Democrat that exists) and all the appropriate causes (including BLM). But if you are black and have always known you were black and hold views that are ENTIRELY consistent with large majorities of black people, somehow that makes you the house nigger.

DU Bizarro World is a fucking TRIP.

I do not fucking believe this shit. I keep laughing.

to refer to other black people using the N word. specifically black people who support the black president .

and these people have no idea how fucked up all of this is.

glad it was hidden right away.

I do not feel bad.

Uncle Ruckus shit right there. The same ppl that will applaud the use of the white power analogy in that OP where throwing a fit when the woman brought up the rampant white supremacy within the political & justice system.

I don't care who you support for President, that is just nasty, racist, hateful shit.

and she pretended to be tinoire's sister. but it was the same person.

there was a big thing during that huge earthquake/tsunami about 10 years ago . she was posting about how US weapons testing or something caused the whole thing. it was printed in some paper and the admin had to write a response to it about how they do not believe in the conspiracy theories.

The more I learn the more HAPPY I am that I never interacted with her.

when she came back as "her sister" . so all the stuff with putin is nothing surprising to me.

but the twitter and attacks on others do show how hateful and angry she is with others. and yet people think they are defending black people when they defend her calling others the N word.

You know, this is just the stupidest and most hilarious thing I have ever seen here. Everytime I think that it cannot get any stranger, IT DOES!! The very next day. I vow to stop talking to any and all of those people who support this nasty. Ignore function will be used in a major way just like I am trashing any and all stupid groups filled with CTs and idiots.

makes me feel wholly humbled ... ChiTownKev is one of them ... and I don't have a problem with that!

... he captured my attention - and apparently I was not alone.

He is incredibly well-spoken, and expresses his thoughts with strength, style, and a sense of purpose.

Back in DU's better days (when this actually WAS a site for Democrats), he would have been lauded for his insight and ability to initiate meaningful discussion. As things now stand, he is just another poster who needs to be sent to the proverbial corner in order to atone for the "error of his ways" - i.e. speaking up, speaking out, and speaking the truth.

What DU has devolved into is truly tragic. What was once a site that would have embraced a poster of ChiTownKev's caliber is now just a place where only group-think is tolerated - and anyone failing to fall into lockstep is "alerted" on until they are exiled to TimeOutLand.

I hope ChiTownKev will return - but if chooses not to, I can't say I disagree with that decision, or his reasons for leaving this cesspit behind.

Well how about one Chicago song that doesn't suck?

Come on back Chitownkev

I look forward to seeing him back here December 13.

As others have said, he's one of those posters where you just immediately like him. Whenever I see his posts I kind of jump up and go 'Now that's something I want to consider!'

Of course, I feel that way about the posts of everyone in this group.

Sweet Home Chicago. Sweet!

And, JT style.. Way back when we lived in Asheville, North Carolina~

song for Kev~

I've seen him around the interwebs for years. A poster of distinction, but of course he'd be sanctioned here in DU.

https://m.

warning him that he'd be on vacation if he didn't stop expressing his legitimate feelings as a liberated black gay man. And he didn't listen. He needs to learn to be "more respectful."

For ChitownKev:

I know he is brushing off his shoulders....

for fear of pissing off the wardens known as my peers (fuck it. I haven't had a hide in more than 10 years)

It is just a shame that there are so many, "not nice to Blacks" posts here on DU and then when people get called on it, they alert stalk.

I no longer question what they do. I just submit and hope fo better days. Sho wish I was a field hand. Least I be a little free then.

being a plantation mistress, I read recently that contrary to popular belief, both of us were the ones most overcome with that disease massah dreaded so much, drapetomania, and had more opportunities to run away. No way would that old Stockholm Syndrome overcome us house negroes

Like the British House of Commons. They're hilarious to watch. They say stuff like 'It's natural that the right honorable gentleman from Surrey is concerned about sewage given that our colleagues from the other side of the aisle are literally wading in it.'

For example instead of saying 'You fuckers...' say 'Some of our esteemed colleagues...'

He was just being real. You know there's a price for that!

So I have to get caught up on what'd going on, plus I avoid GD-Pizza like the plague.

Much better. I almost trashed gd too. Too much.
This stuff. I put the link to his hide in the op. Read that thread. You'll see what they did.

That way we can concentrate on the REAL enemy, the GOPers.

I don't know how to post a video (it might be bc I'm on my phone). But I think this song speaks volumes about our country right now & Trick Daddy always keeps it 100.



Amerikkka

Even here up close & personal.

One of the realest songs out there but I hold him up there with Pac, Nas, & Jay Z & Jeezy is workin on it. Jeezy brought it with My President is black, but he even says in the song they aren't his words. I play that one for my boys when shit starts getting really crazy. It's a hype song.
They're slips are showing something serious.

bravenak - why is it that relative to YOU - that this old geezer (me) had to post a Q-Tip song while you are sitting up there posting Elton John? And another thing - do not! I repeat - DO NOT raid Barry Manilow's closet for your husband to wear!

The before my time stuff is really doing it for me. Love me some EJ!

here is Muddy in a live performance, as probably the most famous bluesman from Chicago.

I was listening to him while commuting this morning!

Shhh - I'm trying to be down with the millenials!

and all y'all in this incredible group

I know I went on a tear, but I tried to keep it out there. But I watched the trolling of this group and lost my cool. This is the best place on DU, best people, best everything.

But you got to do what you got to do. You've got the patience of a saint. And the beautiful part is you on the side of what's right have already won. Thanks, Bravenak, for always trying. Like Maya Angelou said you can't always be the catcher but have got to pitch a few, too

Niles Rodgers and his buddies couldn't get in to Studio 54. They wrote a song where they sang 'Fuck Off!' They changed the words to 'Freak Out!' and it was a hit.

Ah Huh!

I feel younger now, lol!

Funny you should post this thread for ChitownKev ... I was listen to PRT this morning on the way to work!

Well you knows we does love to dance ... Maybe Fiddler is available?

So we're limited to Hope Jacking music and negro spirituals.

Nice!

and Geek Tragedy, who tell it like it is.

Yay!!

And btw, why should I believe some stranger who calls me nwords is a black person? And why should I permit that even if true? This shit is mind blowing.

You shouldn't.
It is.

Keep on bringin' it Kev!

When your dealing with these kinda people, just remember.....kick old green teeth in the knee!
