We need to make punching nazi's normal again.

IModern internet debate rule #1:

If they disagree with you → Nazi.

If they agree but not enthusiastically enough → secret Nazi.

If they agree too enthusiastically → definitely a Nazi trying to blend in.

Conclusion: Everyone’s a Nazi except me, the last sane person on earth.

Edit: so what, we cheering on school violence now? Guess it doesnt count because you dont like the person getting hurt. Heres how that turns out:

I hope the school took disciplinary action for that kid filming minors without consent

Nothing has ever made my boy pussy so wet.

[–] T00l_shed@lemmy.world 84 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

I doubt you will ever see this, nazi punching kid, but I am proud of you. Keep up the good work.

[–] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 hour ago

Yeah, man. What a fucking awesome kid. He gave him a warning and everything.

[–] betanumerus@lemmy.ca 6 points 4 hours ago* (last edited 4 hours ago) (1 children)

Protester was saved by real law enforcement, the kind that's trained not to overreact.

[–] modus@lemmy.world 1 points 46 minutes ago

They protect their own.

[–] GladiusB@lemmy.world 45 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

The kid with the ICE sign is a moron

[–] BlameTheAntifa@lemmy.world 29 points 4 hours ago

Worse, a fascist. His parents are almost certainly fascists, too.

Based kid(who punched the one who was holding the sign)

Schools in the US call the police for schoolyard fights?

That's crazy

[–] Snowclone@lemmy.world 1 points 35 minutes ago

they'll do a whole lock down and give ther kids ptsd for it too.

[–] mic_check_one_two@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 points 3 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago)

Schools in the US have officers specifically assigned to the school. Like the officer’s full time job is to patrol the halls. They’re called School Resource Officers, and they are a large part of the school-to-prison pipeline, as their entire job is focused on getting kids out of regular school and into the prison system. Kids get arrested for things that could be (and previously were) handled by school discipline instead. But since school admins don’t want to deal with it, (because it would require actually making decisions on a case-by-case basis), it’s easier for them to just default to having a kid carted off to juvie by the SRO. And SROs come with all of the same problems and trappings as regular officers; massive racial disparities, being trained for violent escalation as the default, etc…

The stats for SROs are actually pretty staggering. The idea started in the 1950’s, but didn’t really become widespread until the late 90’s when the government started funding specific SRO grants and initiatives, to make them more easily accessible to schools. Columbine (and the subsequent rise in school shootings throughout the 2000’s) poured more fuel on the fire. By 2010, around 45% of middle and high schools in America had SROs. By 2020, that number was nearly 70%.

Schools that invest heavily into SRO programs see a marked increase in arrests (and subsequent drop-outs as kids inevitably end up in the prison system) before graduation. But because no public figure wants to look like they’re soft on crime, politicians keep pushing SRO programs onto school admins. Because more arrests makes it look like they’re cracking down on crime. When in reality, the SRO’s primary role is turning minor problems and disagreements into life-ruining ones.

They only call the police for fist fights. If it's a true fight, a gun one, they call CSI.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 3 points 3 hours ago

the school police (SRO, formerly truancy officer) also try to stop you from ditching. i used to bribe mine with egg rolls.

[–] erev@lemmy.world 45 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

Schools in the US often have a police officer on campus known as an SRO — a School Resource Officer. They're about as useful as you'd expect from American police.

[–] TribblesBestFriend@startrek.website 31 points 7 hours ago (2 children)

They kill dog and beat their wife ?

[–] dream_weasel@sh.itjust.works 27 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

It's unclear how they even find the dog's wife, but yes.

[–] Deme@sopuli.xyz 6 points 5 hours ago

So that's what the huge budgets and the surveillance is for...

[–] Jankatarch@lemmy.world 7 points 6 hours ago

They do treat black and white kids differently depending on how south you are.

[–] elbiter@lemmy.world 8 points 5 hours ago (2 children)

They call the police for everything. It's the only public service they have left...

[–] thethunderwolf@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 5 hours ago

*Public disservice

[–] stressballs@lemmy.zip 1 points 4 hours ago* (last edited 4 hours ago)

Don't you think it's wise to educate children on what it's like to be incarcerated? Those camps weren't built just to house immigrants.

[–] MrShankles@reddthat.com 58 points 8 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago)

So where's this kid's GoFundMe? For like legal defense against suspension or whatever. Doesn't matter, but I'd throw $5 to buy them a drink

  • "Then you're gonna get in trouble for that"

  • "Ok"

I got banned from reddit for saying people should punch nazis.

On a thread about some dude wearing a nazi armband to a funeral for someone who got killed by cops...

[–] Lucky_777@lemmy.world 32 points 8 hours ago (5 children)

Hey! I got banned for the same reason. Together let's punch Nazis when we get the chance!

[–] helvetpuli@sopuli.xyz 6 points 4 hours ago

Seems like it's going around. I had that happen to me too.

The saddest thing about it? The kids that so eagerly embrace fascism don't realize that the fascists and tech-oligarchs they will help to put in charge don't give a fuck about them. Those kids are working hard to create a system that will oppress them. Just like MAGA farmers they will realize they're fucked once it's too late.

Not the best punch I've ever seen, but I love the spirit of it and we need more Nazi punchers for sure.

[–] draco_aeneus@mander.xyz 14 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

I'm sure he just needs some more practice. After a few more Nazis are punched, he'll be an expert, I'm sure.

[–] FlashMobOfOne@lemmy.world 3 points 5 hours ago

You know how you get to Carnegie Hall don't ya?

[–] Sektor@lemmy.world 22 points 8 hours ago
[–] CH3DD4R_G0BL1N@sh.itjust.works 72 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Ok now we need a benevolent mma or boxer with a media presence to reach out and offer to teach this kid proper technique explicitly for his future Nazi punching activities
