"But transportation issues are social-justice issues. The toll of bad transit policies and worse infrastructure—trains and buses that don’t run well and badly serve low-income neighborhoods, vehicular traffic that pollutes the environment and endangers the lives of cyclists and pedestrians—is borne disproportionately by black and brown communities."

SFW, but it's worth reading the text and paying attention to the logo.

Hey, I've got that as my website in my profile!

I'm so glad that penisland is getting the exposure it deserves.

That website is VITAL to teaching young students the value of spaces between words. I have used it on at least three kids. Works every time. ;)
My son makes me laugh. Maybe he'll make you laugh, too.

I guess this is where this goes?

So, SCP turned their logo rainbow, or something, for Pride Month.

4chan/reddit homophobes got all offended, and created their own SCP ripoff, the RPC Authority:

Because creativity is not their strongsuit

But...that's not all, because...

OF FUCKING COURSE THE SYMBOL IS A TECHED UP VERSION OF A NEO-NAZI GROUP SYMBOL.

However, the hilarious thing is their rules:

Neo-nazis from SCP have created their own SCP-rip off safespace.

I haven't been to SCP in a while, so I missed that. I'm going to have to go throw a few hours of my life away opening tab after tab of entries...

So, what the fuck is the homophobe's plan? They're going to create their own SCP clone, and spend countless hours writing a bunch of (probably shitty) articles about supernatural things that likely rip off SCP?

I guess I'd say "cool", and let them leave and start their own insular community. Hopefully, since SCP is pretty well established, Google puts hits for that type of thing higher, and RCP remains a fairly tiny, stagnant group of assholes.

So? SCP the fictional organization isn't exactly Medecins Sans Frontieres, they're an unaccountable militant conspiracy that routinely purges its staff and at least one of the characters who run it is a neo-Nazi.

This makes sense. They don't want their (international) creative community to get involved in (Amerocentric) real-life politics and champion (a selection of) IRL causes. Did SCP put up a sign to support (e.g.) the Irish abortion referendum?

That said, neo-Nazi evaporation is always good.

To be fair, one of the SCP admins did "pre-emptively" ban a lot of people for the assumption that later they would say racist/sexist/transphobic things. Said admin was removed from his post rather quickly once it was investigated, but good luck convincing people of that.

That being said, it wasn't like SCP wasn't shit to begin with. I'm not sure that making a new one with a veiled neo nazi symbol as the logo would make it not shit.
In this moment, I am Ur-phoric. Not because of any phony god’s blessing. But because, I am enlightened by my int score.

I mean, fair point about SCP in-universe.
