Sarah Beth Clendaniel, who pleaded guilty to trying to attack and destroy the power grid in the Baltimore region, was sentenced to 18 years in prison with lifetime supervision post-release.

Prosecutors said Clendaniel, 36, from Catonsville, planned to blow up power stations around Baltimore to destabilize the government in a white supremacist plot

According to prosecutors, the attack would have resulted in $75 million in damages and caused power outages for much of the state. 

This sentence comes after Clendaniel accepted a plea deal and ultimately was found guilty of the crimes in May.

since when are nazis so against electricity? or is it that she personally prefers gas?

They think the only thing holding us back from a race war where we kill all the non-whites is our access to electricity.

I think it genuinely doesn't even cross their minds that the vast majority of all the other people aren't violent, racist monsters.

This is key. It's why they tend to message on virtue signaling so much, there's kinda a fundamental belief that all people are shitty deep down, and they're just more "real" about it. All the rest of us are just pretending so we look good, but we're all just as bad as they are, and they're just the courageous ones.

It's pretty twisted.

If anything it should make everyone want to go after the bloodthirsty terrorists. You know, the ones who made everyone's lives worse by knocking out the power grid?

But reaching that conclusion requires reasoning not addled by lead poisoning and hookworms I guess.

They also believe that everyone else is too stupid to put it together. They think they're such geniuses that they will be able to cover their tracks and convince everyone that it's the brown people's fault.

They were right for a while but now they're literally the first suspects when a sub station goes down.

Are they wrong? They've been moderately successful so far.

[–] captainlezbian 3 points 3 days ago

Sociopaths often think themselves brilliant for violating social contracts and getting away with it while we figure out how to rebuild social cohesion. That doesn’t make them smart, they’re just doing pvp on a pve server

[–] NABDad 2 points 3 days ago

Their success is not because people don't see through their bullshit. It's because the people opposing them have to follow the rules.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 days ago

There's an important aspect to this: they think all or nearly all whites are just as racist as they are, but the Liberal Media censors them to make it seem otherwise. All they need to do, in their minds, is unshackle everyone and the Master Race will sweep out all the untermenschen.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Maybe because they think we marxist, socialist, environmentalist people prefer electric rail guns to defend from them? Dunno, I don't really like weapons.

"Yeah, OK. But is it vegan though?"

[–] AngryCommieKender 6 points 3 days ago

It doesn't eat animals or animal byproducts. So, I guess?

Runs on wireless electricity, which is created with ~~vegan dinosaur bones~~ vegetable oil.
