“Dogpiled” “dragged” “slammed”
These are not consequences. I feel like Americans see these headlines and think “well that’ll show them”, but the reality is this reaction is exactly what they want. Consequence-free social media b.s.
As it turns out, there are tens of thousands of WWII veterans who are still alive. World War II has not actually passed out of living memory.
How did we get to a place where "Hitler was bad" is no longer the default in mainstream US politics?
This is not okay. This is not normal.

Horrible parenting
And worse education. When the richest country in the world has only 50% of the adult population reads above a 6th grade level, you might suck as a country.
What a fucked up scene. Who owns the limousine service? Yep, fuck them too.
worst circle jerk sesh 😬
Sticks hand down friend's pants Hey bro... Where is it?
"Far" right
And these are your typical Republicans in the 2000's AMD are accurately representative of the Republican party.
I honestly wonder if it's too late to stop the Nazi party from being a major party of America now without a lot of violence.
Not to nitpick, but I believe the term you're looking for is "Neo Nazi". The Nazi party ended in 1945. Though you're right. If the US government was completely taken over by Neo Nazi's, it would almost definitely cause WWIII.
We just call them nazis because it's shorter and there aren't many original nazis left, the nazis at the time never called themselved that anyway, it's always been a colloquialism. Though it would be more accurate to call the modern Republicans Neo-Nazis or at least in general fascists. They have taken over the US government and are attempting to start numerous wars which could potentially be seen as a precursor to WW3.

They are called Republicans.
Don't know what AMD have to do with this but yeah fuck these profligates.
Yes I know it's a typo from all capsing and.
I think he meant to say "and".
Make Nazis afraid again
Yeah, they shouldn't feel safe to do this shit out in public. It should result in an immediate ass beating. The fact that it doesn't is a failure of society.
Fear is a tool of the enemy. We don't use the tools of the enemy. We need to turn them into something good.
Make Nazis Compost
Had me in the first half.
Not with those diets
Make Nazis Ballasts
That final paragraph is a real chef's kiss:
Fuentes has openly praised Adolf Hitler, called for a “holy war” against Jewish people, and championed a “whites-only immigration policy.” Fears have also grown among critics that he’s gone on to become a replacement for slain right-wing influencer Charlie Kirk as a thought leader on the right.
Tate is half black. He's only second in line for these people and he's too dumb to realize it.
Enrique Tarrio also talks about white pride. He's a coconut.
Kanye, the Heil Hitler song artist, is full black. He’s definitely a stupid piece of shit.
I've heard that at a certain point of being rich, you no longer identify as being black and rather identify as being rich. Makes the most sense to me.
I knew Tate was a ln insecure woman hating, probably closeted, human trafficking rapist. I didn’t realize that he’s also a Nazi.
I thought that was fairly obvious
Walks like a nazi talks like a nazi
But you sure as fuck can't call them out on BS without getting banned on mainstream websites. Maybe they should stop fucking behaving like one.
What's really stupid about many of these assholes being mixed race or nonwhite is that they think they will thrive if they side with the white supremacists, and for a time, they will. But they either don't realize, or completely ignore, that hate and bigotry are never satisfied. Eventually, there won't be enough "undesirables" to despise, and that pool will have to expand to eventually include them, resulting in the loss of their wealth and protected status, if not their outright demise. It's never "if", only "when".
First they came for the Communists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Communist
Then they came for the Socialists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Socialist
Then they came for the trade unionists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a trade unionist
Then they came for the Jews
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Jew
Then they came for me
And there was no one left
To speak out for me
Eventually the racism gets so bad that whites will actually turn on other whites and accuse them of not being white. They did it with the Irish and the Jewish.
“A collection of rapists, pedophiles, con artists, racists, antisemites, and meth addicts,” wrote X user “AG,” who writes about politics on their Substack and has amassed more than 214,000 followers. “Perhaps the biggest group of losers I have ever seen in my life.”
Literally true and I couldn't have said it better
If Hitler came back to see this group of mixed race young gay men chanting his name he would immediately kill himself a second time
I'd not dive into Hitler's headspace to confirm this, but in my opinion that is a completely misguided take. Almost in a territory of anti-gay people with internalized homophobia or something.
No, like, stop. Don't even indulge in what Hitler would do to this guys, because it makes this imaginary Hitler somehow valid. Don't point on how they are unfit in a fucking Nazi Germany.
Instead, I propose you another route. How they are now unfit in the current times as failures as persons. How their current ambitions are not fit with the better world that may be built without them.
Don't come down to call them f-word race traitors. Call them grifters and liars, and stay at that. I don't feel like going into nazi ideology to find their incompatibility to it is the right course.
It's a joke that simply points out how stupid they are. I don't think it's trying to suggest they're race traitors, nor is it validating Hitler's ideology.
Yeah. Also fascists are notoriously hypocritical. Their leaders in particular don't actually believe their own propaganda, they will approve and condemn whatever is conducive to their politics and propaganda. Why would we take their horrid worldview more seriously than they do.
"If Hitler came back to see this group of mixed race young gay men chanting his name he would immediately kill himself a second time,”
Say what you will about Hitler…
