I mean, yeah? You could maybe make the argument that some dumb bastard in 2006 joining the corps was too stupid to know better and just liked the aesthetic, but if you genuinely had some sort of 'political awakening', you're telling me you still wouldn't know what it means? Fascism is intertwined in history with basically all forms of left wing politics. And you KEPT it on?? If you don't treat it like a malignant growth after your 'awakening', you're either:
Ed: Jesus I didn't realize how 'controversial' this had become today. If you have a Nazi logo tatted on you and you claim to be politically literate, YOU CANNOT BE TRUSTED. The circumstances of getting it do NOT matter, especially if it is still on you.
Somehow the threads where a social fascist does some social fascist thing always get 200+ comments and become like this
In a perfect world, they would have like 6 comments of people clowning on the social fascist and we'd all move on
Option 2, it’s around that time for a psy-op, chestnuts roasting round an open fire and whatnot.
American "left" try not to fall for it again challenge. Hexbear users NOT immune.
I had a disagreement with a lib colleague of mine that even if the Nazi heads of NATO were telling the truth about having been forced to join the Nazis, it's still an extremely powerful position to put someone who was a former Nazi.
I also tried asking him a very basic question, "If the former Nazis HAD joined the Nazi party willingly, are you saying you believe they'd admit that?" He didn't want to answer that question and just kept reiterating that they said they were forced to. I told him regardless of what he believes, you don't put people with that kind of awful background in major positions of power, that you don't take that kind of risk (I would've pointed out that it's because they were former Nazis that they were given their positions but that would've been delving deeper into history than they were clearly prepared for).
On top of all that, June 9th 2020 was maybe the most socially unacceptable white supremacist revisionism has been in amerikkka in its entire history. Like anyone caping for this shit on that date is irredeemable except through a reeducation camp.
I didn't even think of that
He was really out here nazi posting (including the "I know a black guy who committed genocide with me") right before, during, and after George Floyd's funeral
