Thanks. How do y’all do that? I can’t figure it out

There's a new left/old schism that has some bearing on this, namely that the pre-68 left was much more focused on economic class and the post-68 crowd adopted an ideology that based its ideology more on race, indigenous status, and sexual identities.

Not that either one are particularly persuasive, but it is true that most of the hardcore revolutionary left from the late 19th-mid 20th century would have taken one look at Karl and the brutality crew, called them faggots, and had them shot.

Looks like their “high desert brutality” match isn’t going to be well attended.

$400 a go and 85 spots left…

Makes sense though. Wasn’t a lot of the post modernist intersectional bullshit adopted by leftist and taught in the 50-60s era?

That tool right there

They realized that “the worker” in the US was upwardly mobile and had to find a different vector for their cancer

Even Marxists admit that Marx's great failing was that he supposed economic class loyalty would trump nationality, hence an international workers' uprising. This did not happen, and Marxists took notes. National identity beats class identity, so they have aimed their wedge at the most basic characteristics most likely to elicit tribalism. The Soviets recognized race as a natural point of cleavage in the American social fabric, so they hit that angle hard. They are still hitting it from beyond the grave via the true believers.

They came to this realization before the failure of communism in the US, but otherwise you are spot on. One of the interesting things about Marxism is how useful it is as a blank template, a version of political Mad Libs. "The evil ____ are oppressing us, the noble _____, so we must throw off the chains of the _____ and have our glorious _____ utopia." Ready made to tap into the resentful and tribalistic psyches of the stupid, the lazy, and the alienated.

Thanks I’ll try it

Yup

I’d love to take credit, but this guy nails it.

In on 87 for posterity

Thank you for that. He very much summed up all my thoughts from current readings I have been delving into.

I haven't seen it posted.  

I did see it, but not sure of what to make of it.

The Brutality matches seem to be increasing.  The entry fees are reported to be some of the highest match fees around.  

In the ABW2A podcast Karl talked about covering expenses from range rental and insurance to feeding and billeting ROs.  

Russell flat out gets a salary for his role as Match Director and the 2 to 3 1/2 weeks total hours administration for each Brutality match (01:32:45 in the ABW2A Woodland Brutality Podcast).  This is time off from his regular job that he is paid for.    

2023 Brutality Matches:
Midnight Brutality
Handgun Brutality
Woodland Brutality
High Desert Brutality
CQB Brutality

So the Sales and Marketing guy from KE Arms draws a salary to replace the time off from KE Arms so he can be the match director and also compete?  And he has to take half to three quarters of a month off 5 times a year to be a match Director?  

A female connected to Russell with Brutality related "job" titles, does she also draw a check?

We've got to sell product to pay lawyer fees, so buy buy buy.  

But no one ever gets to hear the sales numbers, the actual amount of patreon bucks taken in, merch sold, or the match fees collected vs expenditures.  Karl may be hurting for cash.  Then again he might be stuffing his mattress with it.

Slightly tangential, but this came across my suggestions and found it an interesting and insightful video.
Might be of interest here.

f I had to guess, I would have guessed that the brutality matches were paid out as a percentage of whatever the total match fees were. It really surprises me that Russell is on salary. So maybe the matches are making more than I assumed. But I absolutely believe Karl’s patreon is looking light these days. It seems like on a weekly basis he’s telling someone who claims to be a patron to go to hell. Any minor complaint or criticism is enough for Karl to say well I don’t want your money go away. Next time I see him do this I’ll put it up here

87 pages in, Russel is still fat, and Karl is still a godless, commie, loser.
Parenting could have fixed this, sadly - Karl hails from a line of godless losers

Thank you all for keeping this thread alive and well. It's important to shine a light on scumbags like Karl and Russel so people know exactly who they are giving money to.

Karl is doing so well on InRange that he posted this on twitter earlier:

And posted it to Facebook too:

And when you go to the video on youtube, you find out:

It was originally posted 6 years ago.

Complete with a closing mentioning if you like the content consider supporting him on patreon and subscribe on both youtube and full30.  

Funny thing is, his old west vignettes were some of the InRange content I enjoyed.  He's capable of putting out interesting, non-insane content if he wants to.  Or at least, he used to be.

Yeah I used to like this old west stuff

He’s working on a feature about how Big Nose Kate and the girls at the BirdCage Saloon were actually polyamorous wiccans, and how they were oppressed by the cisgendered white male proto-police Earp brothers.

Wonder what his (new) target audience/associates/fellow travelers/etc. think of the Polish resistance fighter vintage operator shirt they did a few years back:

lMFAO

Yeah, and he just happened to hide out in the pedo capital of the world.

Oooh, Karl got "Brutality" trademarked.

Gotta make that money by taking "Brutality" on the road.  
Stoplight Brutality
Family Reunion Brutality
Fathers Day Brutality (in honor of Karl)
Colonoscopy Brutality

Wonder who is the "Match Coordinator"?

Wonder how mad Karl is.

Lynx Brutality

YouTube shadow banned my ass.
Ya done fucked up boy and bit the hand that fed ya .

Did I miss anything good?

It's pretty quiet over there sadly.

I have half a mind to organize a LARP match.

Advertise it as such. I have some trepidation due to the fact that there seems to be only a few matches in my area ( nw florida )

Maybe I can enlist the woke genocider Deathsantis and we can get the RWDS LARP matches going.

I believe there's a minimum post count that you might not be past yet.

Basically to keep people from creating an account and spamming pictures.

Maybe us Arizona guys can start a match where everybody is extra nice and we can call it Desert Congeniality.

His video on Earp killing Currly Bill Brocius claimed that Earp murdered him. That's a bold false claim based on any known account.

The account of the gunfight was told by the Earp faction, and make it a clear case of self defense. The cowboy faction claims it didn't happen, although there seems to be no record of anyone seeing Brocius after that.

Earp had actually protected Brocius from lynching after he killed Fred Write. He even let Brocius keep his revolver while in the jail, for self defense.

Exactly. Picking a side in the Tombstone mess is historical naivete at its worst and blatant partisanship.
I watched several of his Western videos because that's an area of interest and it hasn't been done much from a serious firearms user's point of view. But very quickly it was evident that he was going off the rails bigly. Then all this stupid shit...

Uh oh, Karl gonna be mad. Ian and Admin just did a video together.

Oh boy.

I wonder what Karl's Juneteenth heroes like "Dread C. Scott" (sic) would think about his trans advocacy.

I can't seem to find any historical evidence that any of them were down with that particular struggle.

I still find it both ironic and sickening that Karl posts this content.

Karl writes this:

And this is the playlist he put together and linked to:

A link to his own videos.  A Juneteenth playlist created by a white guy, who has all of  youtube to collect material to remind us legal emancipation was only the beginning.  And all the content he chose was his own.  He could not find any other content on youtube to use other than his own, let alone any from any content creators of color?

You know what Karl, you are the one who appears to be profiting off of exploiting other peoples suffering.  You make videos.  Some you make in your back yard, some in your living room, some via linking via video with others and some you travel for.  In all of these videos you have never had a black person, a person of color as a guest.  But you explain in all your spotlight robbing whiteness about it.  You have made yourself the darling of the armed LGBT radical left by promoting the Second Amendment is for everyone because they are a targeted community while wearing and displaying "Death" patches to anyone who does not agree with you.  You cater to them in your content, have them as guests and shoot matches with them.   You also ask for their and anyone else's monetary support to live off of.

But you talk about race in America.  You talk, you don't seek out anyone that can actually tell us what it is like as a person of color.  No, you just talk.   What is ironic is you make this post about this topic and while you haven't had a person of color on your channel, you did have a trans shooter who worked security at an occupation zone that's self appointed security and policing apparatus shot several black men and killed a black teenager.  Shot by people who molested the crime scene and have never been identified.  I wonder Fred Hampton would think that black men being shoot and killed by masked men?  Probably the same thing that John Brown would think about a man saying he could have sex with other men and be pregnant or a man going through a mid life crisis standing on stage with a bad haircut and wearing a muumuu saying Hail Satan while a woman tore up a bible.  Your very good at pulling well known people into your cause that are dead and not here to reject it.  
 
Oh, but let's make sure that your not leaving any money out there that you can pull on peoples emotional strings to collect.  No, you choose to capitalize off benefitting from Juneteenth, sickening.  

I look forward to the day you have a person of color actually in or contribute to your content.  I will make some claim to pressuring you to do it.

Bro he TRIED to have people of color on the channel. He wanted people of color with every fiber of his being. But those evil whites were chasing his potential guests around with a noose so they refused to come on

Karl the edgy little 17 year old going on 50, just having to find a way to flag a bird at middle America.

What a fucking clown.
