Crashing the ‘Crashing the Tea Party’ Meme.

I can’t speak for whether or not the ‘Crash the Tea Party’ thing referenced here is real, or just some dweeb on the West Coast who’s trying to sell t-shirts to liberal racists who don’t want to admit that they’re racists.  Honestly, I could see either; one of the gratifying things about the Tea Party movement has been to see demonstrated that the Left’s vaunted prowess at organization and activism largely depends on having no standard for comparison.  They’re really pretty lousy at this.

That being said, the advice found here is pretty good:

Plants have already happened, just not organized ones. Regardless, perhaps organizers (or attendees) need to have a few signs that say “Liberal Plant, not a REAL TeaPartier” and be on the lookout for these double-secret spies. When one is found, then pull out your signs and stand next to the plant. No violence or physical actions, just isolate and embarrass.

And make sure that you get it on the record that you’ve done this.  I will keep harping on this until the end of time: a camera is an indispensable tool for these things. Without cameras they would have been able to get away with lying about Congressmen being spit on and called racial epithets*. So get one.

*Yeah, go ahead and burn that account. Over a failed narrative, no less. [Yes, this taunt makes much less sense over here, since I have both control over who gets to comment, and no interest in letting idiots abuse my bandwidth. But I’ll still get whining hate mail, particularly since I used the word ‘whining’ just now.]

  1. The local lefty group I counterprotest in Studio City every week tried to “infiltrate” the Van Nuys Tea Part rally last April 15. I just followed them around introducing them to everyone they tried to talk to.

    They got peeved, the poor dears…

  2. Notice there’s nothing on the web site–no blog, no blogroll, no way to form or encourage a community, no way to organize…

    Just one link so you can buy the t-shirt. I’m sure this guy is pleased as punch to have an instalanche today…
