Nazis are a threat to everyone. We know this, we understand this. HOWEVER. Goyim, non-Jewish people, I'm asking you to think before you speak on Elon's actions.

Yes, the people trying to insist it was just a "Roman salute" and meant nothing are infuriating, but I have seen responses to it that do nothing more than encourage neo-Nazis and their sympathizers. I've seen "comebacks" where people say "Go do a "Roman salute" in a crowd", "go do it in front of a Jewish person". I just saw a video of someone saying, "Better yet, find yourself a synagogue, and go do the "Roman salute", and see how that goes... bet you won't."

You are putting Jewish people in danger. You, leftist who thinks you're being so smart and witty with your comeback, are encouraging neo-nazis to threaten Jewish people. "Better yet"? Go find a synagogue? Go find a synagogue, go there to do the Nazi salute, and that's the better option you're suggesting to them? What you're doing is telling a Nazi that they need to actively harm Jewish people to prove their beliefs to you, and I can tell you that encouragement is embraced by them.

Jewish people are already going to be one of the main targets of any Nazi or white supremacist group, but half of you are actively offering us up for your "gotcha" moment. Y'all don't think before you speak, and you need to examine why you would ever think to give specific ideas on how to harm Jewish people to neo-Nazis who have just been emboldened to a level we haven't seen in decades.

I could write a goddamn essay about how the "Nazis are inhuman pure evil monsters" logic has actually helped Nazis but unfortunately saying "Hey Nazis ARE people, choosing a group that you don't like and deeming them subhuman and okay to treat as such is not only nazi logic but also makes it easier for Nazism to rise" will probably just have people claim I myself am a Nazi because there are way to many idiots who think that dehumanization is ok when they do it to those who "deserve it"

tumblr is a site that taught me its ok to be racist as long as youre trans or autistic in any form

[doritofalls]

the homelander trump analogy stuff is such a tragic writing choice but I'm more just pissed they are trying to claim this was always the planned angle with homelander's character when it's Very obviously something they came up with writing S3. like why not just admit that. why you lying to me. about something so dumb too.

I feel so man yelling at cloud when I say this, but it is so frustrating seeing the way we would rather twist facts to support our ideologies instead of allowing our ideologies to be shaped by facts

[verseziam]

why do i still see people following/liking/interacting with a blog who literally defended elon and trump.......

[chussy]

god last names are such a. thing. such a stupid and emotional and complicated thing

another interesting thing is that fascism warping perceptions of artistic beauty in the regions where it flourished was and still is a very real phenomenon, but if you think that fascist art was just soooo good intrinsically and that that made it useful for indoctrinating people you've very much got it backwards (as op of that post pointed out). read Rhinoceros by Eugene Ionesco for free online

I open TikTok for the first time in a week and, oh holy fuck.

Non-comprehensive list of words that are not dehumanizing to call someone:

racist

colonizer

zionist

Islamophobe

antisemite

Karen

Trumper

antiblack

homophobe

misogynist

TERF

transphobe

incel

Also, because it apparently needs to be said, *do not*— I repeat: DO NOT— in any way equivocate being called something like “colonizer” with the dehumanization that Jewish people faced under Nazi rule. Do not say, “This is the same rhetoric the Nazis used to justify killing Jews,” when someone calls you a racist. Do not claim that you are being oppressed for being called something like “incel.” And DO NOT tell people that being called out on your bigotry is “exactly like the Holocaust.” It’s not. And claiming it is is nothing short of antisemitic.

just pulled a awesome bigbrained W autism move (took the assignment i was supposed to do three weeks ago and finished it in one night)

you ever watch an entire video essay and come out of it literally not knowing what the conclusion was meant to be, and find yourself yearning for like 2017 when it didnt feel like everyone and their nan were making video essays?

Since it appears to have made that dipnut angry I just wanna say that Jordan Peterson is in fact a Nazi, or at the very least thinks they are really cool and great (and he's a real expert of them!)

It's pretty easy to prove he's full of shit because he loves to tout the idea that trans identity is some new thing (and also the fault of "Cultural Marxists", I'll give you five seconds to guess what that's a dog whistle for) when the Nazis burned the first trans research clinic in Germany to the ground.

Either Mr. Lobster is aware of this and knows he's lying, or he simply isn't aware and lied about being an expert on Nazis simply to praise them under the guise of a wise centrist.

It's an entertaining game to take anything Peterson claims and then see how long until you find proof he's either wrong or lying (shout out to when he claimed to not defend the patriarchy only to use the words "that's partially why I defend the patriarchy" within a minute of saying it)

me purposely commenting literal facts on a “famous” influencer’s fb posts, then reporting his page

The reason people are against pirating the game is that the storyline is heavily antisemetic. I think that it'd be fair to talk about how it's more important to discuss how it is than to demand people not playing a game, but many people have been talking about that. The fear is that people who refuse to recognize that are just absorbing the message without understanding it. In general I think that talking about things, actually having critical media discussions, is more valuable the demanding people not play or not buy something but it's a problem that so many people just refuse to even consider that the criticism holds any weight because some people are being shitty about it.

I’d agree (that talking and potentially educating people about the issues is more valuable than demanding people consume or not consume particular media as purely symbolic shows of ‘support’) but I’d additionally add that many things are more important than critical media discussions. ‘Are people are safe going to the synagogue?’ is orders of magnitude more important a question than ‘is a computer game doing something offensively reminiscent with a ram’s horn in its lore?’

I don’t really know what is supposed to happen if people absorb the message without understanding it. tbh. all of the ‘harm’ here is extremely nebulous, especially if we’re assuming an audience that doesn’t get that any of this is about anything non-fictional!

like ig i don’t literally not understand it it’s just… people made fun of feminists treating shopaholic talking Barbie as if it was a Big Ass Deal for a reason and this is way more abstract than that. and it isn’t that this stuff definitely has zero effect but it’s absolutely uncertain and hard to measure and a lot of the causation likely goes the other way*

and yeah - it does seem the sort of thing that could cause some people to stop listening. because if all people seem to do is whine about what media people consume you’d be forgiven for thinking they didn’t have real problems (and normies struggle to differentiate between e.g. ‘people making a fuss about antisemitism’ and ‘Jewish people’).
