people talking abt the juggalo shit aren’t woke enough to know about when the ICP were investigated for “gang activity” because they were mobilizing too many indigenous teenagers.. one of the dudes in the band is cherokee and they’ve been making what’s essentially violently antifa music this whole time………. like obviously they’re a weird band but just because something is weird or a lot of poor people like it doesn’t mean it’s a complete writeoff or a joke

like you’ve got a massive community full of people who are ready and willing to combat fascists and ur first response is “looooooooool” because….. idk they’re into very tame shock music edgy stuff and u can’t get over that?? like aside from being shallow and mean u all truly are normies …. smh

The whole reason they’re marching in Washington is because the F.B.I. and Department of Justice listed Juggalos as a “loosely organized hybrid gang” in their 2011 Gang Task Force report.  They (the FBI and DOJ) have used this designation to target anyone with band affiliation, and a lot of people who got into being Juggalos  were poor and already disenfranchised by the system (I don’t have numbers on queer or PoC members, but I’m willing to bet it’s higher than average because those categories tend to overlap).  ICP’s legal team has testimony from thousands of people who  have lost custody of their children, been fired from jobs, denied access into the armed forces, and the most common consequence — being officially labeled as a gang member by law enforcement agencies for wearing Juggalo related clothing or brandishing one or more Juggalo tattoos.

They’ve challenged this designation twice and twice it’s been thrown out before it even got to a court.  So yo, support your local Juggalo, they’ve been fighting for you the whole time, and it’d be kind of nice to return the favor, ya?
