He’s just into war reenactment and also expressing that his heart went out to him (/s).
It was literally the nazis who got centrists to “water-down” the word nazi.
Normalizing fascism.
The sooner we accept we’ve reached that stage, the sooner we can do something about it.
I’m not holding my breath.
Start calling them Nazis and Nazi sympathizers, to start.
Honestly, the simple act of doing that has calmed a lot of the dissonance in my brain.
There was no way we could tell he was a Nazi 😔
Who amongst us hasn’t mistakenly made what looks like a Nazi salute, twice, in front of a crowd whilst doing a speech, been wrongfully interpreted as an AfD supporter after having said “I support the AfD” or made posts claiming that Jews do bad things which were unfairly seen as antisemitic?
It could happen to anybody!
/s
Intentional Stonetoss expression at the end?
I was thinking the same thing
I’m glad I’m not the only one! It’s so good!
Right? The guy’s nose disappears, it’s gotta be intentional
This is every fucking conversation I have with my right leaning friends at this point.
I’m a little worried about the distraction this is causing, distraction away from taking real action that can help. Like, felon and nazi are real and useful predictive attributes, but we kind of already knew some of that.
I feel like a better focus would be on taking action - donation, volunteerism, things your class valedictorian would do - to counter actual harmful or evil changes that are made in actual legislation. It sucks to have to prop up things that make America actually great ourselves because narrow minded politicians cut public funding. But to keep these things alive, we have to step up.
We already made our predictions known. Deep down we already know this isn’t convincing anybody new. The next step is taking action. Local non-profits want to hear from you. If it’s a cause that you think might be threatened, and you care about it, you might be able to help.
My Lemmy blocklist has literally tripled since yesterday lol.
If we keep going, we can make this an echo chamber yet!
Kinda weird that its only an echo chamber when it leaves out the right.
I don’t know where you got that opinion from. An echo chamber is an echo chamber and I think it’s a shame regardless of which flavour it is.
I’m here for open debate and freedom of expression, knowing that will mean having to see and read things I don’t like every now and again.
If other people want to block other users up to the point there’s no one else that has a different opinion to them, then they absolutely can do that but I thinks it’s just being an ostrich that sticks it’s head in the sand.
Are we all still referring to the comic strip about Nazis?

Same, I saw the still image and thought, “oh this is like where they grab a still of them waving then are like ‘look! Obama doing the Nazi salute!’”
Nope. Video was one of the most emphatic Nazi salutes I’ve ever seen. Twice!
Gentlemen gentlemen that’s just a actor on his way to a show.
Turns out he was just playing in a WWII movie
what does this guy have against nazi’s?
The nazi’s what?
that’s what

I have changed nothing,
Yeah, it’s almost like this isn’t about you. It’s almost like it’s about a major world power openly embracing fascism and neo nazis.
Get off the internet if it bothers you.
Found the 1930s era German that said “it is what it is”.
I’m sorry, we’re you in DC this week knocking down the white house doors and throwing molotovs?
Right. Shut up. You ain’t doing jack shit either.
Discussion raises awareness. Awareness leads to action.
At least I’m not some loser entirely unaware of what’s happening.
Sometimes I can’t understand why I’m so joyless and cynical, then I read some of the comments on Lemmy and feel a lot better about myself!
