K, CHARLIE DEVOTEE … to be continued

 This is what a troubled, soulless youth looks like.

I had the extreme horror today at an Arlington VA metro station plaza to be confronted by a pathetic charlie k devotee.

My first time engaging in person, face-to-face with such a fucked up by turning point young white man.

I had been returning from an inspiring march through Columbia Heights DC, a largely immigrant neighborhood heavily and violently targeted by ice and cohorts. So when a young white guy sprung up in front of me, cell phone held aiming at me, asked me in a somewhat normal voice, why I was carrying my sign, I was willing to answer.

My sign said “Keep Immigrants: Deport Racists”. Within seconds I realized he was no more interested in why I was carrying this sign than a legislator is interested in standing up to fascism.

He immediately began yelling at me various tRump inspired fucked up – I can’t even say lies but horrible slogans to incite bigotry to the fullest.

His first prolonged shout was the statement that 100,000 immigrants are raping children! CHILDREN! And don’t I care about rape and about children.

Here is this young early 20 year old barely adult white (appearing not so much) male screaming at me, an old lesbian womon, about rape and children as if he could teach me anything from his outside position flanked with hatred about what I and most all womyn have experienced in life.

He switched to claiming it’s his birthright to be in this country. Over and over he shouted his birthright and refused to tell me where his ancestors were from. He certainly wasn’t blond and blue-eyed and no matter how hard I tried, he wouldn’t budge on admitting his ancestors were immigrants.

I tried every thing to attempt to get him to calm down and dialogue. He was not having it and I wasn’t handling this very well. I know how to and am experienced in dealing with angry white men who appear to be kkk’ers, white supremacists, devoted evangelists, and even the most conservative republicans.

But never someone totally immersed in the cruelty, filth and anti-human rhetoric of this charlie character.

I tried asking him why he is screaming at me. I tried answering his question about why I am carrying this sign. I tried responding to his totally insane ‘facts’ he was throwing at me.

Finally, he screamed at me “are you a jew? You must be a jew. Jews don’t belong in this country. YOU need to LEAVE!”

At that point, I whipped out my phone and pretended to video him, as I shouted to the bi-standers what this kid just screamed at me.

He immediately slunk off and disappeared into the jowls of the metro.

Later, thinking about this ‘interaction’ I decided I must find a way to project 5 second sound bites only into his feed, whether speaking them or holding up flashcards with facts countering his venom.
