Shout them down in every space, make them embarrased to think the stupid shit they think.
If we don’t embarrass and correct them now we will have to kill them later when they come for our friends and families.
They already took Doge
I love how butthurt they become when you call them fascist. They’re perfect fine invading spaces they don’t belong in, but the moment somebody labels them correctly, they lose their shit
I guess we can let them keep Tesla…
Yeah don’t let them have the swastika either.
Wait… I’m hearing it’s too late for that. Damn.
Will forever hate them for trying to take Pepe the Frog.
feels bad man
I’m just relieved they didn’t succeed for long
norse mythology: the bisexual dude who has a meathead son and an adopted genderfluid kid. doesn’t go anywhere without his horse-grandson. knows everything will go wrong when they get a dog.
Plus they associate war with masculinity and magic with femininity, and their main guy is the god of both. Women fought and men learned magic. Clearly gender was a pretty flexibly concept. (Not to even mention that we found what appears to be trans masc viking burials.)
I didn’t know that about the trans-masc viking burials! I had been wondering which ancient cultures had explicit evidence of trans guys.
What buried site was that?
Birka grave Bj 581
For a second I feared Lemmy didn’t have the “Save comment” function yet.
This is why gatekeeping is actually important. But you’ve got to be sure you’re keeping out the people who want to change the group, rather than people who want to join it.
I have a Celtic knot tattoo on my forearm (actually it’s the album cover of King Crimson’s album Discipline).
My British friend told me I shouldn’t display that in public in the UK because people might think I’m a neonazi.
I’m like fuck no, Celtic symbols don’t belong to Nazis and I won’t let them have it! Also, it’s a prog album cover wtfRespect for having Discipline cover tattooed on your forearm
Yeah, prog rock’s not very popular so most people won’t recognize it as what it is, unfortunately… However, I wear band tshirts like 80% of the time and by far the best reactions were to my Rush Tshirt. Followed by Riverside and KGLW.
Anyway, fuck nazis !
There’s a specific breed of online Nazis who insist that it’s ‘punk’ to be Conservative.
Those idiots wouldn’t know punk even if it headbutted them in the face.
I say we put this to the test as often as possible.
fascists are even trying to steal the identity and word of conservatisim.
conservatives of 12-15 years ago are liberal by todays standards.
Nazis are cultural parasites.
They already took flags in multiple countries.
It’s always iffy when you carry the flag of your country because the people who do that tend to be assholes. Let’s not let them get anything else.
And take the flags back too.
Yep. 100% true in Sweden. They’ve been doing it since the 90s.
I’ve read all the comments here and I’ve concluded that we don’t really have an effective way for dealing with this problem, although we all recognise the problem.
We do have effective ways, but libs would rather spend their time shitting on communists (the ones who historically and actually fight fascism)
I will forever curse Milo Snuffaluffagus or whatever his name was for Gamergate.
Especially since incompetent Games Jouranlism is and has been a problem for a long time, and now nothing will be done about it because any attempt to reform or shake up the industry is poisoned by the spectre of that bigoted sham.
Would you find comfort, or discomfort if i told you I’ve been a “gamer” since 1984, and I’m still not fully clear in wtf gamergate was?
I’m aware it involved journalists and devs. The adhd kinda prevented anything beyond that.
The sneakiest thing about it is the issues it brought were geniune, but its desire to solve them was not.
It was a movement that wanted to target game journalism acting in political interest more in gaming one, hiring journalists who were blatantly unqualified, giving games terrible review scores either for being “too difficult” or for not being “politically correct” enough
Some infamous examples include a time when a game journalist was
The problem? Gamergate was always a scam, the people behind the movement had no interest in addressing these concerns, but rather using them to indoctrinate gamers into the far right, and sadly it worked as we’re still having to fight off bigots in gaming who shit themselves whenever a rainbow shows up or god forbid anyone have a skintone that’s any darker than the quiet kid who hung out at Hot Topic loudly praising the Columbine Shooters back in 2005.
And the actual problems Gamer Gate wanted to address continue to go unsolved, especially as we see remasters and remakes that are heavily censored compared to their original counterpart (Dead Rising 2006 Vs. Dead Rising 2024 is a good example) or worse, we see games that actively remove content for being too raunchy (Skull Girls basically lost its playerbase overnight by censoring out all of the fanservice in their fanservice game, which even went as far as removing fanart from the art book that they charged money for, falsely accused the original creator of being a pedophile, and claimed the fans upset about this change were also pedophiles… weirdly that didn’t win them back and the game has entered something of a dark age.), with games journalism carrying water for such atrocities.
(You can say what you want about the morality of selling a game where you see the women’s panties during high kicks, the fact that the game was sold as a fanservice game for the better part of two decades and then suddenly EVERYONE’S COPIES were patched to remove that is wrong, it’s been rightfully compared to George Lucas breaking into your house to steal your VHS copies of the original trilogy and leave behind Special Edition Blu-Rays. While one of these characters was canonically 16 which is usually the defense for that, this only covers one character and even then her age came up so little in the story that I didn’t know until it was given as a reason for the change, but counter-point… Why draw attention to it instead of just quietly upping the age of an animated cartoon of a woman who doesn’t exist who is only ever given a solid number for her age when you check the wiki anyway?)
There was also the infamous debacle of a game journalist who was mocked for giving Cuphead a bad review calling it too difficult, when the same journalist while filming himself trying to play it couldn’t pass a tutorial with literal written instructions on screen, he later was terrible at Doom Eternal and gave that a poor score too.
So the company he worked for, instead of reprimanding him and teaching him to get good went “The gamers are to blame!”, and wrote slander articles trying to portray Cuphead as being racist. A claim that was basically laughed away from the fandom and quickly walked back.
I was with Gamergate when it originally launched, but left when I found out the truth. Thankfully I’m a transwoman so it didn’t take me long to figure out that this wasn’t worth my time as my particular faction of it actually banned me for being a woman. I was told by some incel chud that I “Likely was just pretending to be a gamer to get a boyfriend” and that “Sorry honey this aint your dating app.”
Then Gamergate as a whole tried to tell people that Mortal Kombat X wasn’t sexy enough and was trying to indoctrinate people into being gay, the latter of which was based on a single character having a single throw away line in the storyline not even said by him that implied it. (Same story mode also has the game being brought to a screeching halt so Johnny Cage and Sonya Blade can scream in each other’s faces about how they totally used to fuck, meaning ironically it’s heterosexuality that’s being shoved in player’s faces.), the former of which was based on the fact that the women are in their underwear but in the last game they had more revealing underwear.
Thanks for the response, and the examples. I appreciate you writing that all out.
I had to stop wearing my Mjølner pendant because of those fucks. So I fully agree.
We just watched one do a nazi salute twice, on national TV, in the seat of government and not a single member of the “opposition” had the balls to walk up there and punch him in the face.
The Nazis have won. People care more about civility than fascism.
The fascists will lose. They always lose. They might seem to have the upper hand right now, but they can only fool the people for so long until they fight back.
Nazis are a bit like cockroaches. If you stomp a couple, the rest will run away and hide.
I agere. Sadly they hurt a lot people untill they get stopped or destroy themselves.
Unfortunately it takes too long for them to lose.
For as long as men die, liberty will never perish
Be ungovernable
Boy, you give up easily. They’ve “won” already?
Culturally at least, they have. Not a single Democrat did anything except whine about the very public displays of Nazism.
Luckily for us the courts and other countries are actually providing some checks and balances, but if we get a Reichstag-style event in the next two years, the Democrats will absolutely fall in line with whatever form the dictatorship decides to take.
