TIL throwing a Nazi swastika in the bin is anti white

[–] givesomefucks@lemmy.world 43 points 2 weeks ago

Nothing new...

"The Negro Holocaust: Lynching and Race Riots in the United States, 1880-1950" states that, contrary to present-day popular conception, lynching was not a crime committed exclusively against black people. Between the 1830s and the 1850s the majority of those lynched in the United States were whites. From 1882-1968, some 4,743 lynchings occurred in the United States (not all lynchings were recorded). Of these, 3,446 or 73 percent were black and 1,297 (27 percent) were white. In other words, whites were the victims of more than one-fourth of all lynchings in the United States.

White supremacists don't just use violence against minorities, they use it to make non-racist white people conform to the racist culture.

Like, we've literally been thru this already, there's no excuse to be surprised by this stuff

It's saying the quiet part out loud, they see Nazism as a "pro white" ideology.

[–] h3ll3rsh4nks@ani.social 14 points 2 weeks ago

I have a patch of that on my jacket. It has a ring of text around it in German which translates to "put garbage in its proper place"

[–] BigMacHole@sopuli.xyz 63 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

How DARE People say PUNCH NAZIS!

-The Party that Arent Nazis?

[–] sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com 20 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I feel it is hard to imagine the mask could be any more off at this point.

[–] Tiger666@lemmy.ca 5 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Mask off is when they start disappearing all the political opponents.

We are a few weeks to a few months away I bet. They have their Reichstag fire moment finally so now they need to blame the scapegoat. After that is the purge of the opposition. Just look at the late 1930s Germany for the playbook on what is happening.

[–] piccolo@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 weeks ago

Why do you think they are pushing hard to label 'antifa' as terrorists.

[–] sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 weeks ago

Yep, agree.

I have also posted elsewhere that they literally are just following the Nazi playbook.

This shouldn't be surprising to people broadly, but... well, it is, because almost no one actually knows that precise period of history, that playbook.

[–] Treczoks@lemmy.world 40 points 2 weeks ago

So the established anti-Nazi icon of throwing a swastika into a trash can is "anti-white"? Well, at least we now know which kind of white this councilman represents.

[–] markovs_gun@lemmy.world 36 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

"This picture of a guy throwing away a swastika is targeted against me!" is a fucking wild statement

[–] TonyTonyChopper@mander.xyz 13 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

It's incredible how little self awareness these guys have

[–] Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 12 points 2 weeks ago

No, they know. They feel safe claiming it.

[–] givesomefucks@lemmy.world 35 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

My LGS already knows my politics...

Over COVID they had put up 5-6 red hats behind the counter and I called them out on it. Didn't get into politics just told them it was fucking stupid and they should get rid of them.

Haven't seen anything political since. They're still probably rightwing, but they're not dumb enough to advertise it. And it's a very low bar to be the least shitty LGS around.

Local Gun Shop/ Store

[–] Godort@lemmy.ca 14 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I know this as Local Game Store. The place where one goes to buy Magic cards, D&D books, and Warhammer stuff.

This reminds me, if you've not seen the amazing Ralph Bakshi film "Wizards" from 1977, you should go watch it. It's great.

[–] JetpackJackson@feddit.org 5 points 2 weeks ago

Possibly local gun shop?

[–] Adulated_Aspersion@lemmy.world 31 points 2 weeks ago

You have to love the image dropping a swastika in the trash being labeled as "anti-white".

[–] CubitOom 30 points 2 weeks ago

Fuck yeah, keep at it guys. Not only are they starting to shake in their boots, but they are also exposing themselves.

[–] deadbeef79000@lemmy.nz 24 points 2 weeks ago

Can... can the US (goverments) not be evil for just one day?

[–] abbiistabbii@lemmy.blahaj.zone 22 points 2 weeks ago

Remember kids: the only people allowed to use guns to defend themselves are the people who want the government to go after other people. /s

[–] TacoButtPlug@sh.itjust.works 19 points 2 weeks ago

The holes in these people's brains must be filled with necrosis. They live in the stupidest fantasy that makes zero sense.

[–] piccolo@sh.itjust.works 19 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

"We must attack racial minorities"

"We must attack lgbt+ minorities"

"We must attack any one that disagrees with us"

clutches pearls

"Why are the leftists arming against us??"

[–] RFKJrsBrainworm@sh.itjust.works 17 points 2 weeks ago

So Republicans are arming themselves got it

[–] Zirconium@lemmy.world 17 points 2 weeks ago

Get these stickers and put them on the bumpers of cars at LGS

[–] thermal_shock@lemmy.world 15 points 2 weeks ago

This is an advertisement for me to sign up. Thanks for the notice!

[–] Confused_Emus@lemmy.dbzer0.com 13 points 2 weeks ago

Of course this shows up the day I start seriously considering getting a firearm. Thankfully my town has a “Pink Pistols” group I could train with.

[–] altkey@lemmy.dbzer0.com 12 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)
[–] explodicle@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I like to imagine a leftist just screaming this at the top of their lungs - at nobody - before unloading an entire clip at the range.

[–] altkey@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

You are reading my mind.

This meme image depicts a couple of armed uniformed soldiers saying they are The Pretext, and a desperate person cornered with a rifle saying 'Fuck, I'm not going under!'

[–] apotheotic@beehaw.org 12 points 2 weeks ago

"Anti-white" -> picture of a Nazi symbol going into the bin

[–] Adulated_Aspersion@lemmy.world 8 points 2 weeks ago

You have to love the image dropping a swastika in the trash being labeled as "anti-white".

[–] sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 2 weeks ago

Nobody tell 'im about angry kitty cats.

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 5 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

It's crazy that these people always were the kind that would want another world war but I never would have guessed they just wanted to try playing as the other side this time.

[–] kadaverin0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 2 weeks ago

This man has the mind of a child.
