Vacationers have long known that Miami group chats can be a force for evil. Friendship-ruining, relationship-destroying, and, in the case of the Miami-Dade County’s Republican Party, a national scandal.
The Miami Herald reported this week that the local Republican chapter’s recently established Whatsapp group chat for young conservatives was quickly overrun with racist and misogynistic posts. According to the Herald, users threw around racist slurs against Black and Jewish people with abandon, including hundreds of instances of the n-word.
In one instance, College Republicans Recruitment Chair Dariel Gonzalez wrote that “you can f–k all the [k***s] you want. Just don’t marry them and procreate,” leading Florida International University Turning Point USA chapter president Ian Valdes to reply that he “would def not marry a Jew.”
Another user, William Bejerano, sent a long list of violent acts he encouraged against Black people. The n-word-packed message included acts like crucifixion, dissection, and beheading. The chat also went through several rounds of renaming, including “Uber R****d Yapping,” and “Gooning in Agartha,” a reference to Nazi esoterica associated with SS head Heinrich Himmler.
But we’re totally not Nazis.



I don’t know why this would be surprising to anyone. These people will try to spout this shit in spaces that aren’t specifically catering to them, why would the spaces that are not be completely inundated?
