    why not call it the klancilium instead and keep the klan prefix? god reactionaries are so dumb even when aesthetics are all they’re (sometimes) good at they fuck it up

    also klonvokations is just lol

    how did rural crackers ever take any of this shit seriously it sounds like it’s ripped from Dungeons and Dragons, I literally read this shit to my GF and she zoned out and thought i was talking about some isekai anime

    edit: nobody needs to tell me the reactionary cracker will go to any length to debase himself if it will mean harming minorities but like it’s just wild to me that that, in this case, meant calling a bunch of nerds “exalted cyclops” and “great titan” at their weird cult meetings

          It’s okay, er, klokay. Because the klan will be be publicly stupidly again and we can try our puns again.

      Serious answer: it was the fashion at the time. A lot of fraternal organizations have goofy ass titles and a lot of Klansmen were also Elks or Rotarians or whatever. It’s dudes being bros but instead of appropriating Muslim/Ottoman/Turkish aesthetics and supporting children’s hospitals like the Shriners, the reincarnated KKK went with nativist spectacle instead.

      Maybe they didn’t and it was like a high fantasy for them. Obviously it’s only policy that actually matters and in this case it’s harming minorities but admittedly having silly titles like that is such a good parody of the legal system and civil religion that I kind of want actual government titles to be like that now

          My sources say that would significantly improve on the current title of “poopoo head”

    More confirmation of my theory that humanity would have been better off if every generation of fucking nerds had access to Warhammer 40k. You don’t need to do a crusade, just play Warhammer 40k. You don’t need to join a racist LARP group, just play Warhammer 40k. Oh so you want to restore the purity of the Germanic people huh? Aryans are nothing compared to space marines. Shut up and play Warhammer 40k.

      Walter L. Fleming stated in a footnote to Lester’s text that the contemporary (early twentieth century) Southern college fraternity that most nearly mirrored the early Klan was “known as Alpha Sigma Sigma”

    Part of the reason they do this is to make their evil look cartoonish and harmless to liberals.

    I’m convinced the Coen Brothers got the seed of the idea for O Brother Where Art Thou by learning the klan had a title called “cyclops”
