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.”
Nobody should be surprised by this. Every Republican I’ve ever known on this planet says these exact same things when they feel they’re safe, every last one.
A highschool friend of mine is of the Republican peruasion, or whatever equavalent my country has. Some weeks ago he was having a game night with his footbal friends. During the night he was sending pictures in our group chat. We could see mount beercan growing in every picture, but it all looked like a fun night so far. Until some point when the picture of the next board game didn’t show a board game, but it showed a copy of mein kampf on the table. And he was making inapproriate jokes about it. One of our group is jewish and he took offence. The drunk, republican friend than quickly deleted the picture and appologized. But the damage was done. He had shown his colours.
Mein Kampf itself isn’t an issue. I think people should read it so they understand how absolutely stupid fascism and Hitler were.
Holding it in anything other than complete disdain after reading it though, that’s a paddlin.
The people that listen to trump speeches and think they’re anything other than batshit insane won’t find anything wrong with Mein Kampf either. From the parts I’ve seen it’s similarly incoherent, just with better grammar.

Well, there’s plenty of people who believe Jordan Peterson’s ramblings speak of a superior intellect, so I’m not so sure that would work.
Personally I’m glad the stuff is pretty much illegal where I live.
Why are these libruls so offended lmfao? All I did was praise ethnic genocide
/s
Yeah, I would say “confirm” is more appropriate than “expose” here
It’s always the one you expect
Once again, it is not hyperbole to say that Republicans want to kill you.
Once again, if you are physically and mentally able, you should be arming yourself to the best of your ability for the day when they are emboldened to act out their violent delusions en masse. And that day may come sooner than you think, as it has with every fascist milestone thus far.

Nothing, nothing at all will happen to you.
Sad thing is: this doesnt mean shit. They dont even need to feel bad. This is the new normal and every new incident with no consequences normalizes it further.
I have read this story so many times over last few decades, that this party is the moral majority just disgusts me.
Their leader is a guy who just grabs them by the pussy….
If that was the only thing, he is a fucking pedophile and likely was not Epstein client but a partner.
Everyone that votes no is going to the gas chamber.🔥
I’m ready to watch people burn now
When do we start bullying dude?
Are you going to do whatever it takes?
Boom - they’re dead.❤️
When do we bring that side out?
He also hates the Jews❤️
It was rape
They love the watermelon people💩
And everyone that endorsed but then votes for us is going to the gas chamber.🔥
Also … we are officially under consideration for a Trump endorsement. 😁
I’d go to the zoo if I wanted to watch monkey play ball
Great. I love Hitler😁
Yoooooooo
This girl is fully r------d
Kick the b—h
you’re giving nationals to much credit and expecting the Jew to be honest 😆
Stay in the closet f----t
If we ever had a leak of this chat we would be cooked fr frBenefit of the doubt asks me to look at this as some form of edginess, but it’s all just too bad and obvious.
MAGAts - even the young ones - have only one sense of humor: to demean and insult and hurt others. And that’s not funny at all.“C’mon, we were just fucking around” - nah, that statement alone tells me that you’re callous, dumb and ultimately dangerous.
And it’s nothing new. The Young Republicans group at my university were all equally shitty people. The only difference now is that they don’t feel the need to be as cautious and guarded.
Sooooo they moved from 4chan to telegram? Other than that, this isn’t news for anyone that’s ever interacted with a Republican when they feel comfortable.
Yes we know the GOP party is the Nazi party in America.
And journalist still won’t call the Republicans a racist party.
Quick! Get them into White House positions STAT
Imagine what the old GOP leaders were saying when they were young. Bet you it’s a lot like this.
‘Expose’?! BS this is not news they all feel this way
It really bothers me that Politico doesn’t make it clear whether the censoring was present in the chat, or something they added
the members of the chat slung around an array of slurs — which POLITICO is republishing to show how they spoke. Epithets like “f----t,” “retarded” and “n–ga” appeared more than 251 times combined.
Really seems to imply the people in the chat self-censored, and at no point did Politico state they were the ones censoring. The inconsistent censorship also means either the group was self-censoring, or Politico is doing a poor job (“r—d” is censored, but “rape” was repeatedly not censored)
I highly doubt that group was self censoring. It’s just inconsistent censorship by politico. “Rape” is not a commonly censored word, like the slurs are. I would have no expectation to see the word “rape” censored, it would be like censoring the word “murder.”
