Fun fact: Lemmy Kilmister, for whom these Fediverse iterations are named after owned the largest personal collection of Nazi memorabilia in the world for years leading up until his death. And just like every other person you've ever heard of who made Nazi iconography the centerpiece of their obsession, Lemmy was an entire piece of shit human being. Now you know. Fuck Lemmy.

FWIW,
Lemmy collected German military regalia; he had an Iron Cross emblazoned on his bass, which led to accusations of Nazi sympathies. He stated that he collected Nazi memorabilia because he liked the way it looked, and he considered himself an anarchist.[33][34] He spoke against racism many times.[35][36][37][38] Lemmy said he was against religion, government, and established authority.[39][40] In 2011, he identified as agnostic, saying: "I can find out when I die. I can wait. I'm not in a hurry."[41] Jeff Hanneman, the founder of the thrash metal band Slayer, befriended Lemmy due to their shared fondness for collecting Nazi memorabilia.[42] According to Keith Emerson's autobiography, Pictures of an Exhibitionist (2004), Lemmy gave him two of his Hitler Youth knives during his time as a roadie for the Nice. Emerson used these knives many times as keyholders when playing the Hammond organ during concerts with the Nice and Emerson, Lake & Palmer before destroying them. Lemmy defended his collection by saying that if his then-girlfriend (who was black) had no problem with it, nobody else should.[40]
Are you saying he was a piece of shit purely because he collected memorabilia, or were there other reasons? I know of no reason to say he was a bad human being.
Yeah everything I've ever heard about the guy shows him as beloved by fans and fellow professionals alike.
This person made the exact same comment about Lemmy a while back. He (or she) continues to talk shit and is not worth responding to.
Fuck that guy for talking shit about Lemmy!
If you're going to post this, you should really mention the full movie that goes with it. I watch it at least once a year, its great. https://youtu.be/3CZQkzoAUSo
