Iiiiiiiits NAZI PUNCHING TIME!!!!!
I oppose punching Nazis.
You might hurt your hand.
Use an object instead.
I enjoy the satisfaction of a broken hand after some nazi punching. Reminds me I did something good for the world.
Where do you even get a T-shirt like that?
China. Shipping is a little more but god damn they're cheap.
These days, and especially with the continuing shift to the right in Europe, I'm repeatedly asking myself what the attractiveness of these ideologies is, that so many people again fall for them. They represent destruction not future. They do not have a plan for the future, they are only "against" everything good.
It provides easy answers.
You're a good strong person. They're bad people. All your problems are their fault
Most people love feeling like they're part of a group.
Fascism preys on the ideas of regime change and stagnation. Physically, a government wishing to gather power through voters will promise new public works, a focus on workers, and the general embetterment of society. Ideologically, fascism promises a purging of those in power, those that lead the stagnation and bad working conditions that started the movement. They conveniently pin in on a group of people or a few undesirable groups to appeal to a large number of the population and then make a grab for power. Bad times and stagnation create fascism.
They construct an ideology where everything was great way back when foreign powers were jealous of our national heritage and destroyed everything. It's a very easy to grasp and convenient myth, since your nation becomes the main character of history.
Nationalism/patriotism is very succeptible to falling for fascist ideology. Therefore, everyone waving their national flag with pride is sus to me.
You don’t get to be a German and not feel pain - a lot of pain.
But not yours to bare my German brother from across the pond.
Germany has learned ( IMO) that while nazi party rose in Germany. Germany isnt the Nazi party. The United States never learned the lessons from this historical past.
Danke
