    Thousands of private messages reveal young GOP leaders joking about gas chambers, slavery and rape.

    Leaders of Young Republican groups throughout the country worried what would happen if their Telegram chat ever got leaked, but they kept typing anyway.

    They referred to Black people as monkeys and “the watermelon people” and mused about putting their political opponents in gas chambers. They talked about raping their enemies and driving them to suicide and lauded Republicans who they believed support slavery.

    William Hendrix, the Kansas Young Republicans’ vice chair, used the words “n–ga” and “n–guh,” variations of a racial slur, more than a dozen times in the chat. Bobby Walker, the vice chair of the New York State Young Republicans at the time, referred to rape as “epic.” Peter Giunta, who at the time was chair of the same organization, wrote in a message sent in June that “everyone that votes no is going to the gas chamber.”

  • I know this is a joke, but it made me think of 2024 and how I was genuinely confused by my multiple neighbor’s “Love Trumps Hate” signs in 2024 in a very liberal area. I legimately thought they were saying they love the level of hate Trump is spewing, because that’s how crazy those people had gotten. Also, why would you use a word that is the same as the guys name, in a sign protesting said guy. A few weeks later someone clued me in, but god damn, this timeline is so fucking stupid when i legitimately thought the Trump people were “just telling it like it is”.

    As a disclaimer, I’m fully aware of the phrase love trumps hate, and the meaning of the word ‘trump’, but in this over politicized environment it just didn’t dawn on me that was the intended meaning.
