He’s just into war reenactment and also expressing that his heart went out to him (/s).
This kind of reminds me of this old skit https://youtu.be/PxS1H7oqrSI
heart went out
That cold, shriveled, thorny accessory organ flew across the room at match speed and took someone’s eye out.
It was literally the nazis who got centrists to “water-down” the word nazi.
They’re still working on it.
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.
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.
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
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.

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!
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.
Enlightened centrist?
I consider my self a lefty, but I think it’s important to consider all points of view, especially when I disagree with them.
That is good, but what value do they bring?
If nothing else, it’s practice for the next time you hear it, you can workout your arguments against it.
I also find it quite fascinating to try understanding other people, I already understand the reasoning behind my beliefs and already know what I know. Talking to someone different from me is much more interesting than talking to someone very similar to me.
You can consider the nazi point of view (do you really need to though?) without defending nazis’ right to spew their bullshit.
And let’s face it, even if lemmy was 100% leftists, the rest of the world is fascist as fuck so it’ll never be an echo chamber.
The only speech I don’t defend is hate speech. Everything else must be fair game, no matter how much I personally don’t like it or how much I disagree.
Someone with the privilege of not belonging to a group that fascists wants to exterminate from the planet, apparently.
Are we all still referring to the comic strip about Nazis?
Meanwhile bro on his way to a reenactment of The producers: Springtime for Hitler: The musical
