You could've just made a screenshot of the youtube clip @erodedthoughts
Hey @Haejin, do you think @Sneak flagged me because I'm part Asian and not completely white?
Some people can't even digest the MEME? lol😱, what's the purpose of @blacklist-a anyway? I tried to ask a similar question to others also but nobody could give me a straight answer because they don't have any idea about this account. Hopefully,I'll get my answer rather than downvote for this question.
thank you!
If I'm not mistaken, it basically puts you on a list that blocks autovotes being cast on your posts and comments in the future. So, @sneak judged and flagged me because I placed a meme, in a meme contest post, without taking a proper look at my earlier published posts, which are despite the Jerry rant, almost exclusively content contributed on the Steemit platform.
I was searching about the purpose of this account because it noticed it was flagging some of the accounts I am following and there's no way they could be spammer or abuser neither their posts that get flagged from sneak and blacklist-a, and I follow very few user here. When I asked them they didn't know the reason for the flag made me more curious.
Thanks for this info..
Hmm, interesting. I don't know the exact reason why he flagged me, but he is certainly abusing his rep on this one. You can also just remove a flag afterwards, but the bot flagger need to be removed manually as well. Damage has been done anyway.
I read that one of the blacklists was essentially a blackmailing scheme where they forced you to "reform" and pay some absurd amount of internet moneys to even be considered for removal from the blacklist. A bunch of bullshit if you ask me.
The account looks like bullshit to me as well x) self-centered people these days... damnit!
Sneak wearing skinhead boots explains so much.

Maybe I can clear that up for you: fuck nazis
Is that in your audible range?
See how such accusations feel and why someone would respond with "veiled attacks" about pea-sized brains or something?
I am using their ammo about the Nazi boots to further make my point in my responses, but trust me ... I don't think you are going to curb some Jews just because you wear Nazi boots.
Show me a nazi that wears docs with red laces and not just some urban legend that claims such, and I'll permanently stop wearing them (sadly). Black with red accents have been my colors for years.
Fuck nazis.
I don't know any Nazi's myself but a quick internet search turned up this. Took Google .03 seconds.
Sure it's on GIS, but you're going to need to provide some context. Is this a thing that actually denotes the thing that GQ article claims? You can find anything on GIS. I'm not going to stop because like 0.1% of nazis did it at some photoshoot.
If indeed this is a fairly common nazi thing, then I'll stop wearing them. I don't want anyone to get the wrong message.
I don't know, in a world of fake news where would you like my information to come from? You pulled your information from wikipedia for fucks sake. You know the site where anyone with 10 minutes can write what ever they want.
But here, I took another 3 minutes to find you the info.

If you don't think Pepe is a racist symbol, in both active and widespread use by white supremacists today, you haven't spent much time on the internet in the last few years. The fucking frog is in Gab (nazi twitter)'s logo, ffs. It's irreparably tainted.
See my other comment below.
I had never even seen that frog face until Donald Trump started putting the wacky old lady in her place he was running against.
You are correct, I do not spend much time on the internet looking at the news. I hate SJW and fake news the same. I have a life outside of steemit and this is my only source of toxic news.
So how about those shoes? You wearing them tomorrow? I have seen them in real life on low life Nazi's. I didn't need the internet to know facts I have seen in life. I have never seen that frog outside of trolling internet images.
Then why bother about the 0.0001% that thinks Pepe is racist if you think this photoshoot is just for show?
You're missing my point. I can do an image search for a cat with a CD spindle cover on its head and find one in a split second; this does not mean that cats commonly wear CD spindle covers on their heads.
I have heard rumors about nazis wearing red laces, but I have never witnessed it myself. For example, a GIS for "red laces charlottesville" turns up no evidence. I'm skeptical that it's a common thing.
I don't think it's very widespread, and I've been wearing red laces for decades because I think it looks cool as an accent color (I also always wear all black and have a red watch band and red hair)—nobody has ever come up to me and treated me as a nazi as a result.
If you can demonstrate to me that this is a consistent thing that nazis actually do on the regular (e.g with 2 or 3 recent news service photographs showing nazis doing this) then I will abandon it, but I'm not giving up a fashion I've worn most of my life simply because oft-repeated urban legend has it that "nazis wear red laces!"
Red laces are cool. Fuck nazis.
I apologize, but I am surprised that you did not know about this very common Hate Symbol. It dates back to the late 20th century, where it -all- started and is still known for its symbolism. I'm not going to Google it all for you but here are some links. Also, I would appreciate it if you would lower your flag in percentages and not flag the troll-post for the full 100%.

To give you an idea how widespread the interest of the term 'pepe nazi' is over the last 5 years:
https://trends.google.nl/trends/explore?date=all&q=pepe%20nazi
If it’s very common as you claim, you should be able to link me to 2-3 news service images showing it happening in the last ten years (and not just some random websites repeating urban legends).
FOR THE LOVE OF GOD MAN.
These images are all from the same LAW site.
Or here post on the ADL

Irrefutable evidence. The Hate Speech Database is the only reason Pepe is a "hateful" image. So it is very fitting the red lace Nazi boots are there.
I don't know. I figured I was done beating a dead horse if the ADL was incorrect and twitter and Wikipedia was where we learned from.
And about the no search results about Charlottesville:
https://www.atheistrev.com/2017/08/too-many-nazis-not-enough-reason.html
Most people who wear red shoe laces aren't nazis, most nazis don't wear red shoe laces. I guess the hitler salute is the dead giveaway in this image, not the shoes. So, maybe @sneak shouldn't use his shoes as his logo because people could misinterpret it, but wearing them is perfectly ok.
This right here is the correct answer.
"I want to shoot things" put on an image of a video game shooter is not hate speech.
"I want to shoot things" put on an image of a school, church, hospital, etc is hate speech.
It is the INTENT that makes it different

Everybody who knows me knows that my sunglasses are clearly the logo, not my shoes.
NO-ONE said @sneak was a Nazi. He pointed out pepe, I pointed out his red laces in his doc's. He said prove it and the shoes were gone. So I did and he keeps dancing around not getting rid of the shoes, regardless of the information shown. Just trying to figure out if he is an honest guy or not.
I sure as fuck hope he was implying the owners of decent memes were racist using pepe as that is how his post read the way it was written.
No you didn't prove anything, you just linked a lot of sites regurgitating the same urban legend that supports your point. (I'm also not a skinhead and I don't straight lace them, which is the other thing all these sites say I have to do to be a nazi; we could go on all day.)
I suppose that because my hair is now super long and is making me look like a crazy person, the fact that I'm going in for my thrice annual buzzcut tomorrow is just more fuel for your imagination's fire. Believe what you will, my viewpoints have been rehashed more times than I wish to count in this thread. (PS: Fuck nazis.)
Pepe being used by nazis isn't an urban legend. It's in active use for that purpose today; you can see it for yourself on the internet in five minutes.
If you read the rest of the thread you'll see that @acidyo's use of Pepe was by accident, and the racist connotations are why he's getting rid of it as the logo. He cleared it up.
I also said above no-one or at least not I was calling you racist. I don't see the frog or laces in my everyday real world life. I have seen the laces in the past but in the real world in which I live I do not give symbols the power to make me feel a certain way. I don't care if someone else says it means this or that, they don't really matter in the scope of the real world. I mean come on, I have a purple unicorn with a rainbow horn tattooed on my leg. I've had quite a few people on steemit make gay jokes, fuck them. They don't matter.
It's 100% the scarf that makes you look like a crazy person :)
I don't spend all day looking for hate symbols on the internet but when I do I expect you to buy new shoes.
Carry on @sneak getting flagged by @starjuno makes you better than most.
