#cw Nazi

[mixterglacia]

I am pleased to report that G.I. Robot is helping modern day Nazi's accidentally out themselves on Twitter. As in "it's so sad he killed his new best fwend so twagic."

To which everyone is responding, trying to get through to this guy. Every time he tries to say "oh I'm not a Nazi, but- (the most obvious fascist rhetoric you've ever seen)"

Which is retorted to with:

Moral of the story, if you can't understand that being a Nazi in this day and age is a deeply shameful thing that could and should get your shit rocked, then maybe you are a Nazi. Anyone who would show up to a meeting to try re-start their political beliefs final solution deserves what they get.

Let this be a living example that knowing the beliefs of any individual who wrote any piece of text- be it literature, articles, or posts- can and should drastically alter your perception on what the text is actually communicating, even if that knowledge has, on its face, changed none of the actual printed words. This is how application of real-world context works, and this is how it applies to any recorded medium.

It reminds me heavily of a quote from video essayist Jacob Geller, regarding the 1938 film Olympia- "It's different when Nazis do it". Olympia is a film that, on its face, simply depicts an artistic documentation of the 1936 Berlin Olympics. But within the context of its production taking place during the Nazi regime, with its director being a well known Nazi propagandist... The way the movie fixates on the power and elegance of the human form and Ancient Greek statues quickly shifts from being completely innocuous appreciation to the worship of what is perceived as the ideal forms of the "Aryan race". Suddenly, you understand the movie not to be a pretty inoffensive documentation of a historical event, but a propaganda piece.

Understanding the time period in which something was made, as well as the setting it was produced in/for, and whatever ideologies an artist may hold and experiences they've had is absolutely critical to getting a full understanding of anyone's work. There are some things that are near completely anodyne on their face, but the revelation of what the author thinks and feels about other people and the world around them totally redefines every word on the page.

This image is such a prime example of why context matters. This opinion, laid bare, stripped of context, is both inoffensive and nonsensical. No one's ever thought it to be lame to create your own nickname... But on its own, that's a harmless kind of wrong. ... But with the addition of them being marked as Anti-Trans (red) on Shinigami Eyes, a browser extension dedicated to crowdsourcing keeping track of Trans Friendly and Transphobic creators... Suddenly, "Nicknames" doesn't mean "Nicknames" anymore. Suddenly, you realize that "Nicknames" is code for "Chosen Names of Trans People". Suddenly this isn't about thinking choosing your own nickname is lame, this is about thinking that trans people shouldn't have the right to name themselves. Suddenly it's about invalidating identities, thinking they're worth mocking. Thinking that people who identify as trans are "just trying to be cool", and that they're not actually what they say they are, because you don't get to choose your gender nickname, that's something already decided for you.

Suddenly, you realize, it's not about "being lame".

It's about Transphobic Violence.

This is why you cannot ignore when an artist, author, essayist, developer, musician- so on and so forth- is bigoted. This is why you can't ignore the context behind their upbringing. This is why you can't ignore the context behind their lived experience, their ideals, their goals, their message. Yes, it may appear innocent on its face. Yes, it may look fine stripped from the context of it being written by an inevitably flawed human being. But what's really being said here? What do those words mean... To the one who wrote them?

Context redefines Text.

Even if the words didn't change.

ive been out of the DIY loop for ages and google isnt helping, sorry for the ask. whats the deal with studs and spikes? they fash or something? that would suck ass.

No worries, ask box is open for a reason lol (my turn around time on answering is just extremely unpredictable and can be anywhere from a few hours to a few months)

Studs and spikes started selling iron crosses under their ‘badges and pins’ section. Iron crosses were a German military award under the Nazi regime. (Though they have roots in the Prussian military and a modified version is the symbol of the modern German military, though they are no longer an award). 

Iron crosses were at some point adopted by bikers in the US for ‘shock value’ but in punk spaces, they are still heavily associated with white supremacy.

What studs and spikes sells (in a few more colors too):

The modern German Military symbol:

Some more info about iron crosses and the ADL glossary of hate symbols:

So I see it every now and again and p sure that I might have a shirt with an iron cross (before We knew what it was) somewhere but just reminding y'all that this cross

Is Nazi insignia. It's called the iron cross. See someone using it? Probs a Nazi. They didn't know? Just inform them. No point getting mad at the oblivious. We all start somewhere. Okay bye.

I didn’t believe it until now when I was scrolling through AF about nazi ocs and fucking kkk and 9/11 ocs being on there😭😭😭 DOG I WAS JUST LOOKING FOR A CHARACTER TO DRAW THE FUCK YOU MEAN YOUR “TWINK” PARTICIPATED IN “A CERTAIN CIRCLE OF WHITE HOODS BACK IN HIS DAY”???????? REPORTING THAT SHIT AND I HOPE THE MODS ARENT SLOW AS SHIT BECAUSE WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK!!!!!!

I hate that the latest trad wife discourse fails to acknowledge that the idea originated with like...neo-nazis and white supremacists. Like it's not a new concept, it just was kept in the weirdo alt-right circles and not the mainstream. It's not, and has never been, a feminist move to identify with the label 'tradwife' because its alt-right shit.

[spc-rambles]

The Nazi allegory with steam v.s. diesel again urrghh is very annoying but hey, it was the first draft of this WWII movie, so let’s hope that parallel is removed or at the least tweaked to be less iffy in later drafts, whenever those will be revealed.

Anyway, what about the rest of Shane Acker’s Thomas world? Apparently Sodor is its own separate fantasy world from ours, and Edward leads the main character Richard into the world. God bless him, and while I’m not sure if coaches would be a thing in this engine world, if people would visit this place, I do love this concept of this Narnia like paradise.

Something about Sodor being a real place to the mainstream general audience film demographic, delivered more maturely than the most overt references to the war in the franchise (which by the way was just mentioning Sir Norramby fought in the war while Duke was left in his shed) feels somewhat right. Like fanfics have done Thomas + war well, but those are mainly aimed at hardcore adult Thomas fans, and some try being too much. And anyway, how would you feel if in Narnia, we saw the animals of that world fighting in trenches, doing the jobs animals did IRL, just speaking as well? Like what? Would fucking Aslan be fighting a tank or some shit?

Now onto the character concepts, I adore the new characters. These war ships being characters are fun enough but two being a husband and wife is adorable, and this snowplough trucker girl engine sounds like a fun concept. Loading gauge restrictions doesn’t seem to be a big problem in this world so why not?

Oh and Gordon being a hero that disappeared from the public eye because of a conflict and returning near the end of the film just sounds just out there to work for a grand design as Gordon. If this Gordon’s anything like Gordon in RWS/T&F canon, he might just have done it due to being put out of action due to failure at saving the community or something.

And about Richard being mistaken for Thomas’ father, is this implying in this world that these engines were taken to this fantasy world? After being brought up by drivers and firemen, who drive them onto the tracks to adulthood, so to speak? Sounds like a cool concept, but I don’t know if I’m reading this right either.

Whatever, this early draft is just that. With most of what we have it’s fun.

Telling you about 2 vkei bands

This is experimental goth vkei duo called romantica😁😁 made up of members karen fox and sada. Formed in 2004 in argentina, then disbanded in 2007. Their first song was called yaoi. They're both nazis. The ends

To recover from the shock of the knowledge i have just bestowed upon you. This is another band called Silver Ash, they have been active since 2000. They make gothic music and are from china. They have gone through 20 different lineups, very gorg my favorite was their old member Lucy. They are not nazis. Happily ever after😊

Twitter: "Pipkin Pippa is a Nazi!"

Me, a moderate leftist: Pippa is not a Nazi. She has not been shown to support Nazis nor does she display any traits that would indicate that she is a Nazi besides you thinking using 4chan is an indication of being a Nazi somehow. Also, Phase Connect is a Canadian company. I'd highly doubt that they would let an actual Nazi be a member of their agency.

It's especially hilarious that idiots on Twitter call her a Nazi, unaware that she is very blatantly anti-authoritarian, anti-state, and anti-censorship, which is the complete opposite of what Nazis are. Accusing people of being Nazis when you have no idea what they are actually like and you just get your information from Reddit or Twitter or some shit actually waters down the meaning of Nazi. Please educate yourself.

Those idiots on Twitter should just admit that they are just calling people Nazis for clout. I blame Vaush for starting this. That asshole I also hate for other reasons, too.

Sorry for being more political on here than usual. I just thought my Pippa blog would be a really good spot to defend her.

This is what made me make this post:

TW: Mentions of N*zis and m*rder

Plural Culture is watching a 60's sitcom about a WWII POW camp and making the joke "haha what if we got X character as a fictive" and ending up both with said character AND THE FUCKING N*ZI.

Not to mention that we got a factive of said character's actor... who, in 1978, was apparently un-alived in an apartment complex less than a mile from where our progenitor lived when we were a kid.

Oh no

I want to preface this with that this isn't blorbo apologia this is criticism for the creators of the batman movie. Don't be weird on this post, k. I'm not saying "Riddler was right" I'm saying that "The Batman (2022) has really weird politics and I don't think it got enough heat for the weirdness of it's politics" This is film criticism, leave your white boy simping at the door please and thank you.

One thing I did find deeply weird about the batman movie is that they had the Riddler be like this alt right 4 chan board denizen and then they had him target Bruce Wayne for being rich. That feels like some horse shoe theory nonsense to me. Like they had a whole black woman politician running on AOC talking points, and like I certainly don't want to see violence against her we stan of course, but he said very little about her until she got in the way and he didn't accuse Bruce Wayne of being jewish or anything he was just kind of like "Wayne family bad." Like I just don't think we should be letting alt right terror cells pretend they have class consciousness. I think that's A. very dangerous, and B. the exact kind of thing you would see in a big budget movie. Like the alt right absolutely takes underprivileged white boys and directs the rage that they have about their station and redirects it from a class analysis towards hating women and poc. So why is the underprivileged white boy that your portraying as having gone down that pipeline targeting the wealthy white man? That was such a weird choice if you were trying to portray the alt right as it exists.

but if you were trying to argue that class consciousness is as bad as naziism that choice actually makes perfect sense. Like if you were trying to argue that people who say "eat the rich" are just as much of dangerous terrorists as people who say "blood and soil" having a 4 chan board core terrorist whose a white boy with a sob story target a rich guy for being rich would be the way to do it.

Anyway The Batman (2022) is not as based as you think it is basically. Like if you're gonna portray the alt right portray the alt right. If you want to shy away from portraying bigotry on screen, don't portray the alt right. And for the love of god, don't let the target be rich people. Rich people fucking love the alt right. Trump (billionaire) is the alt right's guy.

Bullshit that mods get rid of offensive ocs fast. I've reported several Nazi uniform, Soviet uniform, and Imperialist Japan ocs and attacks with the rising sun and none of them have been taken down. It's been MONTHS. Mods have taken down attacks for making people "uncomfy because w-we're not fwends anymore uwu" faster than literal hateful ocs and art. Then if you dm the mods about it, they tell you to let the mods EVENTUALLY get to it.

Now one of the nazi ocs got 3 new attacks of them in the uniform. 🗿 Joy.
