  1. It’s “young man” if a teenager is left-leaning or a minority, but “kids” for thirty-something GOP edgelords.

  2. Anyone have the actual ages for the people involved…?

    I know the Vermont state senator was 28 (which is absurd already on so many levels) but one thing I do know is that he definitely wouldn’t qualify as a “young boy” (as JD Vance so eloquently put it).

    Oh come on. They are kids until they die. Then they are revered Grandpa. Anything to escape middle aged responsibility.

    I get that the headlines are focusing on the racism. It is horrific, of course. But for their comment about rape of their political foes, may I just say this: I hope the dildo of consequences is visited upon every one of these little assholes someday.

    Just Nazis defending Nazis for doing Nazi shit. But “Antifa” is the problem. Lmfao. Our government in the US is currently a third trimester abortion

    Between this and the flag caught in the meeting… Nazis and Nazi apologists have gotten so comfortable. What a disgrace.

  7. “By scanning public records and media reports, Mother Jones determined the ages of eight of the 11 participants in the chat: They appear to range from 24 to 35.”

    Lest we not forget:

    Thomas Fugate, 22, is the Department of Homeland Security official tasked with overseeing the government’s main hub for combating violent extremism.

    So if the 24-35 year olds are kids by Vance’s definition, why did we appoint a 22 year old one year out of college to the DHS?

    Funny how a liberal college student can speak out against genocide and get called a terrorist sympathizer and thrown in prison, but the vice president sees pro-rape racist republicans in their 20’s, 30’s, and 40’s, and calls them kids who shouldn’t have their lives ruined over it. It’s almost as if some of these republicans love genocide *and* racism. Oh, and rape. They defend rapists the most.

    Some of them did get fired.

    * **Will Hendrix:** The chief of staff for the Kansas Attorney General, Kris Kobach, was fired from his position. Kobach stated that the comments in the chat were “inexcusable”.
    * **Peter Giunta:** The chief of staff for New York Assemblyman Michael Reilly was fired. Giunta, who was vice-chair of the New York State Young Republicans, reportedly sent a message saying “I love Hitler”.
    * **Joseph Maligno:** A lawyer for the New York Young Republicans group, Maligno reportedly vacated his post.

    Of course they’re not kids, they’re 4th or 5th generation Nazis. And they’re raising the 6th or 7th generation of Nazis.

    Or like that Republican Congressman in Ohio Dave Taylor, he’s representing 268,211 Nazis (based on the last election). Most everyone knew this years if not decades ago, but now we see it every day on the streets of the USA as directed by Trump and the entire GOP.

    p.s. Hey Dick Durbin, can we call them Nazis yet?

  11. JD Vance is literally 1 or 2 years older than some of the Young Republicans in the group chat.

  12. The only reason why they’re called “Young Republicans” is because the majority is just ancient.

  13. There’s a big difference between these 35 year old “kid” nazis and the kind of kids that Donald went to see on Epstein Island
