Anti-emo pogroms rage throughout Mexico – Boing Boing
Via the Austin American Statesmen, several postings on Mexican social-networking sites, primarily organising spot for these “emo hunts,” have been dug up and translated. One states: “I HATE EMOS!!! They are not even people, they are so stupid, they cry over meaningless things… My school is infested with them, I want to kill them all!” Another says: “We’ve never seen all the urban tribes unite against one single tribe before… Emos, their way of thinking is for crap, if you are so depressed please do us all a favour and kill yourselves!”
Never happened before, huh? http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/england/lancashire/7316601.stm
Awesome. Hating people for being different than you is SO COOL.
Almost enough for me to start pullin for the emos.
No, hating people for being ANNOYING LITTLE TWATS is cool.
Hmph. Methinks we need a dose of Niemoller here.
Y’know, the post-Columbine overreactions weren’t that long ago.
What strikes me as inane about this is that these Mexican pogromists are about 10 years behind the curve.
“if you are so depressed why don’t you do us all a favour and kill yourselves”
Sounds like they’ve just discovered the emo phenomenon, which makes the whole thing just a bit laughable.
