A lot of the takes in this thread were pretty bad 9 years ago, but holy fuck did they age poorly.

I appreciate Alien Workshop. They’ve got great, intelligent art direction. Not to mention great wood, shapes, and team. It probably just goes over most people’s heads. Kinda funny that people are getting butt hurt over it.

Memory Screen? Photosynthesis? Mind Field? that Cinematographer edit? they get a forever pass for pulling together the teams and artists they did.

i'll say it again -- carter/hill/castrucci = lifetime pass. they can make rob/big and alex jones boards from now til 2070 and it won't undo what they did

I never really developed any romantic fillin for this brand.

I liked the skateboarding but I was buying mainly Guy boards my whole life.

I definitely never would fuck with anything political in skateboarding besides stickers.

This graphic is shit and is no where close to anything I believe in.

Fuct has always been wack. It came off as tryhard even in the early 90’s.

Wow just bumping this so a few people can eat their hats when it comes to talking away ultra right fascists and the threat they pose. The lengths people go to in this thread to argue that Infowars and Alex Jones aren't essentially the Proud Boys breeding ground is mind blowing. Fast forward 9 years and an assault on the capitol and the one positive I can take away from this is that finding out about this collab has cured me of my nostalgia for the days before the Sect's unravelling. Although on the other hand it's insane to think the guys responsible for creating these decks haven't been ostracised from the community. And does it mean the riders I look(ed) up to from that era like Heath and Jake Johnson were OK with this?!

The fuck you searching for that made you find this thread? Info wars skateboard? Kinda suspect… :-X
personally I can only hope to be remembered in a slap post three years after my death, with my name spelled wrong

I don’t really think most people knew how dangerous Alex Jones’ reach would become at that point (Jan 2013), but, you know, go off king.
For someone w.no signature ur awfully hostile, & that is why I do this

Actually a really good article: https://thebaffler.com/outbursts/a-crime-and-a-pastime-ohaver

Another thing the article made me find out that's really cringe is Jordan Peterson likes skateboarders.

I don’t really think most people knew how dangerous Alex Jones’ reach would become at that point (Jan 2013), but, you know, go off king.

While I didn't know he would peek his head into the mainstream and have a future president on his show... It was widely known that he had dangerous/hateful views and that he was pushing them on an impressionable audience of people, many of which suffer from serious mental health issues like paranoia/schizophrenia.

SecularTalk (Kyle Kulinski) got his start making content pushing back against Alex Jones. InfoWars has always had concerning far-right extremists on.

Clicking on the first video that popped up when I searched "2013 Secular Talk Alex Jones":



Hmm... who is Larry Pratt?

https://www.splcenter.org/fighting-hate/extremist-files/individual/larry-pratt

From this page:

Quote
Larry Pratt stands at the intersection of guns and Jesus, lobbying for absolutely unrestricted distribution of firearms while advocating a theocratic society based upon Old Testament civil and religious laws. A pivotal figure in the rise of right-wing militia, or “Patriot,” groups, he spoke at the notorious 1992 “Gathering of Christian Men” in Estes Park, Colo., where 160 neo-Nazis, Klan members, anti-Semitic Christian Identity adherents and others arguably laid the groundwork for the militia movement that would explode in 1994. He believes that white Christians must arm themselves for self-protection in the inevitable social implosions and riots that are soon to come.

Later on...

Quote
The gathering was organized by the late Pete Peters, a pastor of Christian Identity, which posits that Jews are biological descendants of Satan and people of color are subhuman. Among the 160 Estes Park attendees were Aryan Nations leader Richard G. Butler and former Aryan “ambassador” and Ku Klux Klan leader Louis Beam.

I didn't pick and choose, it was literally the first video that popped up with that search.

I'm not posting this to call you out, but to inform. I don't see the need for the condescending "go off king". Its okay if you didn't know he was all about at that time, but many of us did.
Skateboarding is the ultimate challenge.

No offense but necro'ing this so you can try to use the power of hindsight to dunk on shit people said 9 years ago is probably the most cringeworthy thing I've seen in the entire thread.

No one could have predicted this in 2013 or trumps presidency until he got elected in 2016. During the process of his presidency, Trumps patronizing and lying ass gaslit all the republicans and hate groups to come out of the woodwork and expose their dumbasses to riot and loot the capitol. Trumps last horrah until he is fully and legally cancelled in the history books i hope..

I wouldn't count our chickens before they hatch. We are an economic depression away from SOMETHING happening. Probably something really bad.

That’s called misdirection.


Probably told Cooter and his Groop Kooks he’d make them all the new Political Guard if they got this and that done.

Sit and wait it ain’t over yet.

20-30 years from now after the people got full control of the government well know exactly what actually happened beneath the surface of this Culture war they orchestrated.

I’m no sheep. I know what they do with they power

Ima go complain about it in not stoked on rn.

To those saying we shouldn't apply modern perspective to criticize our past: this was only 9 years ago. I read the first page of this thread without realizing it was from 2013.

It's one thing to give Teddy Roosevelt a hard time for shooting elephants 100 years ago since most people now would agree that it's a shitty thing to do. The difference is that there's probably even MORE people agreeing with Alex Jones now than there were 9 years ago.

I love Fuct and I still rep it, I think for the fact it was maybe the first “streetwear” tshirt I had as a kid and I have fond memories… I also just love the whole 90’s vibes in general and what the brand represented for streetwear as a whole (as a fan).
But I have to agree that Erik comes of as an idiot on social media and it bums me out.  :-\ I do look at him as the senile uncle and try to ignore it… At least he’s been kinda silent lately and I wish he stays like that.
