Fuckin' Nazi fuck

The real headline should be "CPAC audience cheers Bannon's Nazi salute", because they totally did, and it leaves no doubt that CPAC is full of Nazis.

Meh, that was a pretty weak nazi salute. I care less about that stuff and more about thier actions that affect actual policy and such. Those actions are usually worse anyway.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 day ago

To be fair Bannon was/is....pretty not good.

Most people have muscle memory of like normal wave or maybe a clenched fist pump for "fight fight fight" right? It's not supposed to be difficult to avoid nazi saluting. Like I've never ALMOST sieg heil'd, you know? fuck sakes

look there was no plausible deniability when Elon did it. He pretended like he was a weirdo autist the night of with his weird head bobbing and his exaggerated gestures to try and give plausible deniability. but the Nazi salute was putting the toe in the water. feeling the room

it seems that the wannabe Nazis felt like the water was warm enough and they're gonna start descending the staircase into the pool

It's almost like the capitalist media has completely normalized and apologized for fascism.

[–] [email protected] 30 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

And even when reporting on it they link to the neo-Nazi site X for the video.

You'd think it would be easy to avoid doing this, but watch as the MAGA scum come out of the woodwork to rush to the defense of another guy who totally didn't mean it, honest.

[–] [email protected] 90 points 1 day ago (1 children)

So at this point, the leaders of both major political wings of MAGA have openly done the fascist salute.

Maga America needs to be denazified.

MAGA Americans need to cease to exist.
