WMATA shut down DC train station to public. Only allow Nazis in.
- Thread starter Bandage
- Start date
That frontline propublica report led me to believe this would happen. Law enforcement, if not actively in cahoots with White supremacists, is more than happy to signal boost and ignore their many many crimes.
So management is self-scabbing.
Hopefully the whole system is shut down tomorrow. This is blatant.
As did I, I wasn't trying to play Gotcha, I'm local to DC and WMATA management considering this had blown up earlier this week w/ a union boycott threat. I assumed that wasn't known to most.
How can they tell who is "the public" and who is a Nazi?
If someone really has to get somewhere ASAP, that could make for some interesting interactions... "Yeah I'm a fuckin racist scumbag now let me on the train"
Maybe there was a separate but equal mass transportation option for everyone else?

Ah good, the people are starting to become more bold and show their true nazi colors. I can't wait to see who else can help and encourage this movement, its going to be sk hopeful to the growth of society. /S
Since advocating violence is against the rules here, I have nothing to add except my general disappointment that this is a thing. I feel like this is going to be all I can post in a lot of topics regarding this.
Wow, fuck you Paul Wiedefeld. Get the fuck out of the CEO's chair right now. I usually only run to work like once or twice a week at best, but I'm going to make it as much as I can physically bear now to never use WMATA services again. What kind of piece of shit do you have to be to hear the public outcry, make a fake-ass backpeddle, and then go back to your stupid-ass original decision at the last minute. Seriously, fuck WMATA, fuck Paul Wiedefeld.
You don't need a threat of violence to have the solid blue electorate of the DC Area petition your elected officials for a complete removal of WMATA leadership.
Incredible. If there end up being casualties during this Nazi offensive, WMATA will be one more set of hands stained with blood. If there's any justice, they will be boycotted out of business for this.
I mean. Putting your public transit system out of business isn't good for anyone. Those responsible need to be removed.
WMATA leadership has been doing a good job of doing that themselves. They'e been bleeding ridership for a while relative to other metro areas. It's not entirely on them, they've been underfunded by local governments and there are legitimate issues with the union (they're on the right side here, but there's been issues elsewhere with refusing to allow adequate staffing so that their people can get OT) but this decision is completely unacceptable and needs to be reacted to as such.
If you live in WMATA areas, contact your local legislative member (State Senate/State House in MD/VA, city council in DC). DC, MD, and VA each have transit authorities which appoint the Board in charge of WMATA. The public pressure on the state legislatures needs to be immediate.
I'll be doing this.
Fuck WMATA management.
Good on the union for doing what was right.
Does nobody understand the importance of DISRUPTION in order to bring about positive change anymore? Smh
Are you gonna cover my rent when I can't get to work cause of it?
I already called Jack Evans, blow up their voicemail.
I was confused reading the title and thought the train broke and they were only allowing the Nazis to get on a broken train as a joke to have them stand and wait.
Wtf
Wtf
