Apparently posting pictures of Nazis being punched in the face on r/pics is ok, but saying this Nazi loving pos should be punched in the face isn’t… Apparently that is encouraging violence, and is a problem, but showing violence isn’t promoting it and isn’t a problem…

Cool 7 day ban, I just won’t be going back.

    Trump is not a nazi. Fascists subjugated corporations to serve the state, this is the other way around.

      Different strategies, same endgame. Focusing on semantics doesn’t stop monsters.

      Arguing whether fascist oligarchs are somehow radically than historically correct fascist is a waste of time and energy.

      People doing Nazi salutes in Trump gear are just the modern day equivalent of Germans Nazi citizens in the 30s & 40s. It just says Maga instead of Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei .

        I think it’s important to recognise the role of capital in how this particular tyrant was brought upon, otherwise people might get the idea that voting for Democrats could solve anything.

        I don’t like Trump but I like words to have constant meaning so that we can keep communicating efficiently. There is no way to honestly argue that man is a nazi unless you stretch and twist what this term stands for. If you’re doing that just so a different kind of capitalists can win then that’s doubly insulting.
