Locking this post because it’s a constant stream of rule three violation reports. Don’t be a jerk.

Ehhhhhhhhhh. It's more the picture of Charlie Kirk.

To put this in the context in which I imagine the Right would see it, they don't believe Kirk was a Nazi, that's a slur the Left uses. If someone had a picture of a drag Queen getting shot and had "Pedophile lives don't matter" (common meme on the Right is the lgbtq community are pedophiles etc) on the Left, we'd probably say they want to kill us, even though (hopefully!) none of us identify as pedophiles.

While this is true, he was an open white supremacist, so, mild nuance.

Still nuance, but mild.

I would take exception to the pedophile accusation too though. Libs of tik tok is a Jewish woman. You'd think she'd want to say, "Im not a nazi either."

Prepending the tweet with "I'm not a Nazi but..." wouldn't make it much better.

Hatred of jews isn't what makes someone a Nazi. That was always more of a Christian thing in Europe. Cult infighting. It's unfortunate that education on the rise of the third reich is so focused on the killing of the jews. Maybe we wouldn't be in this situation today if people actually knew what a Nazi/Fascist is.

Thank you for making this comment. There are enough moments where right-wingers legitimately do out themselves as fascists that we don't need to be elevating these silly gotchas.

[–] turdcollector69@lemmy.world 12 points 1 week ago

This is the sort of rational and well balanced take that would get you perma'd on reddit.

He wasn't a Nazi, but he was a fascist agitator. All Nazis are fascists, not all fascists are Nazis.

The Nazis were very much into public works projects and pretending to be socialist, both of which are anathema to contemporary American fascists.

I think you're missing the main parts of being a Nazi that people dont like about Nazis.

I'm not sure anyone would accept the pedophile label or rush to defend pedophiles. She obviously didn't object to the title of Nazis and she rushed to defend them as "us".

Did World War 2, Indiana Jones, Wolfenstein, and Quintin Tarantino not explain what we do to Nazis?

Looks like the KMFDM album art

Says the bitch who regularly doxxes people so the right can harass and make death threats.

Libs of TikTok is a domestic terrorist and proud of it. She needs to be in jail.

They don't feel they're Nazis but they feel they align with Charlie Kirk, who they think was unjustly labeled as a Nazi

That "Libs of TicTok" woman is an incredibly stupid person. Even if you explain this to her, she still won't get it.

That “Libs of TicTok” woman is an incredibly stupid person.

She found the feed bar that you need to hit in order to get oligarchs to give you money and promote you into their social circle. And she's slapping the fuck out of it.

Idk if you can call that "smart" or "dumb". But if I knew that I'd get a $100 bill slipped into my G-string every time I waved my tits at a conservative mega-donor and shouted "Liberals don't have a pair like this", you know I'd be on stage wiggling and shouting until my knees buckled and my throat was horse.

It's dumb that you can make a career this way, but I'm not shocked to see folks out there grabbing the bag. Say what you will of Anna Nicole Smith, but it was one hell of a way to make a living.

I was told the bullet didn't exit his body.

Yep, his holy super skin kept it in to save the innocent bystanders
