The white supremacist neo-fascist BANA is running http://www.iamamotherfucker.com/ (http://www.anonym.to/?http://www.iamamotherfucker.com/) and trying to make money for their racist homophobic cause by selling t-shirts inspired by "Epic Beard Man"

I can't make out what they were saying in the beginning of the bus video. How did that altercation really start?

Anyway, anyone with proper training could've picked apart that old man with his wide ass, looping punches. While he did bloody up that guy, I can't really place fault on anyone because I can't hear the very beginning, but if the old man was saying racist stuff (or being a real arrogant asshole), he would've deserved getting his clock cleaned. If not, you can't really justify following him up to the front of the bus and grabbing him.

Well heres the interview with the guy. (http://www.spike.com/video/epic-beard-man/3345915) He did walk away though.

Where in the Bay area are they? I'm in Oakland so I don't think they'll be in my city.

I'm going to be all over these guys. Thank's for posting this. I'm surprised I hadn't heard of these idiots. I've been spending a lot of time refuting anarcho capitalism and I'm willing to bet these idiots were born out of the anarcho capitalist movement. Frauds, racists and revisionist quacks. All of them.

Thing is with Ancap, you've got the "national anarchist" crowd, the Austrian crowd, and the Ron Paul teabagger crowd.

The EBM video was actually relatively funny, but Scumfront's obsession with it also illustrates the nature of their ideology's focus on pointless anecdotes. It's not as though these videos are going to convince them of black supremacy:

And yeah, it's a meme on /b/ because there seems to be a lot of the "angry white male" crowd behind the dark humor that defines Anonymous (try taking a look at Encyclopedia Dramatica's race articles, lol), but it's also interesting to note that these other videos never became Internet phenomenons the way that the EBM video did. Is it because of a taste for a black man getting beaten because of stereotypes about them that doesn't exist in the case of these other videos?

They were based out of Dublin.
