Idk about y’all, but I like it when the fascists are stupid enough to out themselves to the world.

My thoughts exactly - I want my enemies to have a uniform to be pointed, named and shamed at.

remember in world war 2 when the Allies defeated the nazis by naming and shaming them?

[-] NephewAlphaBravo@hexbear.net 91 points 1 year ago

I love how everyone's like "I like knowing who the nazis are!" and absolutely zero ideas on what to do about them

Wait for a chosen one to show up and defeat their leader, like in Harry Potter. galaxy-brain

voooooooote them out! whats that? Hitler won with 33% of the votes bc liberals enabled the fascists and would rather form a coalition w them than with the communists? nah, hitler won bc the communists went to far actually and were trying to restrict freeze-peach very-intelligent

[-] tactical_trans_karen@hexbear.net 34 points 1 year ago

They're not the most perceptive bunch, they actually need people to seig heil in order to differentiate from themselves.

[-] FunkyStuff@hexbear.net 66 points 1 year ago

isnt the point of outlawing it that now you can do something about fascists outing themselves to the world? ffs liberals are so spineless

[-] ZoomeristLeninist@hexbear.net 61 points 1 year ago

frfr. they secretly love the fascists bc who else would kill the communists?

[-] FunkyStuff@hexbear.net 39 points 1 year ago

objectively the left wing of fascism, capitalism in decay, the oppression of imperialism turned inwards, etc etc.

[-] ZoomeristLeninist@hexbear.net 38 points 1 year ago

naw theyre the mainstream wing of fascism. social democracy is the moderate wing of fascism

there is nothing “left” abt fascism, hence the Stalin quote abt social democracy

ik what u mean tho, these ppl def think that they’re left wing

[-] FunkyStuff@hexbear.net 20 points 1 year ago

whoops my bad. my brain is incapable of remembering quotes.

There is hardly anything liberal about tolerating explicitly anti-liberal/anti-democratic forces.

That's... the most liberal thing imaginable.

heartbreaking

[-] keepcarrot@hexbear.net 40 points 1 year ago

I think the most liberal thing imaginable is a universalisation of property rights (of a particular cultural pedigree) and a fetishisation of markets (unless inconvenient to those with lots of property).

[-] YouKnowIt@hexbear.net 30 points 1 year ago

You forgot about the key factors of claiming credit for any social progress accomplished by socialists and acting really smug about it

You do realize that free expression requires that you permit things as reprehensible as racism, transphobia, homophobia right? You're literally doing the "Well I dislike it, so I'm revoking their rights" thing. I frankly don't give a shit what they "call for" unless they're trying to incite imminent unlawful acts. The crutch for the weak-minded and stupid is asserting yourself as the only moral and political authority and pretending that this will not immediately blow back up in your face. If being an actual liberal with principles is right-wing, then I guess I'm right-wing. It's better than being a spineless succ with no principles and who thinks liberty is removing the liberty of others.

they just SAY it!

They would have absolutely zero disagreement with a Nazi putting minorities in death camps so long as it's the law of the land.

They might start getting a little uncomfortable after the first couple million or so are murdered, but up until then it's freeze-peach baby!

i truly could not give less of a shit about 'liberty' in the sense of political freedoms.

[-] Tankiedesantski@hexbear.net 22 points 1 year ago

I frankly don't give a shit what they "call for" unless they're trying to incite imminent unlawful acts.

Damn that's what we've been missing. Instead of saying "Shoot the landlords (in minecraft)" we should have been saying "shoot the landlords (at sometime in the non-imminent future)."

holy shit am I tired of 'free speech absolutists' showing up to defend Nazis and literally nobody else

[-] polskilumalo@lemmygrad.ml 21 points 1 year ago

Turns out when you are a free speech absolutist who defends communists just as much you might just end up one yourself.

"First they came for the Nazis" LOLZ

[-] Lochat@hexbear.net 43 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Neoliberals know they're next on the Nazi spectrum so it does make sense they'd be concerned once Nazis are targeted.

I mean, statistically the closest thing you can get to sending people to labor camps based on race is doing it by the socioeconomic status you were born into, and that's their idea of utopia.

i actually don't support these laws because they historically always just get used against the left and never against the right. fascism isn't defeated by the government banning it, it's defeated on the street. Also from a long time back, one of the proposed amendments to this bill was the following text (i dont know if it was in the final bill)

all other extremist groups which seek to promote fascism, communism, anarchism, bigotry and violence in our community

we also know that in places like germany where nazi symbols are banned they just invent new more obscure ones anyway

[-] Tachanka@hexbear.net 40 points 1 year ago

they don't need a legal mandate to oppress the left. blow up every nazi statue with public money.

I bet some of these people will do a quick 180 if it came to something related to the Taliban or ISIS, since I don't think I ever saw a liberal defend someone right to like, I dunno wave the taliban flag or something? but it also just really shows how much they love nazis

The lame-ass libs in the comments checks out, but I also looked at the article and it gets bizarre. Feel free to correct me if I am misunderstanding. But the fascists might have been showing up to support the event that was "gatecrashed". As the person giving the speech and the event itself seem to have been anti-trans anyway. But the TERFs get completely glossed-over and the lawmakers are pissed about the hateful fascists only. "These laws are part of our unwavering commitment to challenge antisemitism and hatred whenever it occurs." Just an amazing level of contradictions being shown by liberals/conservative-liberals.

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
