    Reminder that Anti-fascism is so Orwellian that Orwell himself said that every fascist should be shot.

    Back when I went to bars, (like 2011), the one I frequented had some anarchist bouncers. Since it was located near a Greyhound station that dropped off the releases from the state prison: there was a regular stream of shit stirrers coming in still stuck in the prison mentality and struggling to adjust.

    Negative gauge lip and ear man with Freddie Mercury stache would materialize. Just deadlift the nazi and walk him out of the bar.

      Nommies. Nom nom nom. Eat them or feed them: Bill the cat’s or Opus’ plan?

      Wondering:

      OP’s picture’s reversed? Nazi swazi rotates the other direction. Extra message? Easter- NaziSwazi-egg?

      Manji’s robe’s (Blade of the immortal - 無限の住人) yin yang swaztika goes the direction shown (with a black/white halves background) in original manga.

      Don’t worry, I punch right often. You’ll forget about this incident too as soon as it’s convenient for you to do so, though, just like you’ve forgotten every other time.

        I mean, OP’s talking about literal nazis here.

        Is that only a tiny disagreement from your positions?

          I think the problem he’s referring to is that some people are naming every small racist prick a nazi and that that devalues the meaning of the word.

          Kind of how comparisons with the holocaust are very strictly regulated in Germany in order to not shift the Goalpoast.

        Not everyone, they could be tankies too.

        Liberals are desperate to keep things the way they are, so they have no patience for leftists or conservatives, and actively shun both, then blame leftists when they lose.

          Tankies aren’t leftists and conservatives are not the opposite of liberals. Conservatives oppose progressives, liberals include conservatives and progressives. The DNC and GOP both have a lot of conservatives in their ranks. The GOP has fascism and bigots and the DNC has social democrats and (probably some stealthed) democratic socialists.

            Tankies desperately want an American Communist party to be the only party, they don’t like the way the US is run, and want more change than anyone is comfortable with.

            That they shun the others is about the only thing you got right there.

            My apologies, I assumed it made sense in the context, but I guess not.

            I was basically trying to answer your question. You called the guy a fascist, and I was just saying that more likely, people like that aren’t actually fascists, just useful idiots for the fascists that will end up being disposed of once they’re no longer useful.

            Yeah so basically the word “fascist” here is being used as an opening to allow violence. What Arcade is doing is threatening me with violence, by showing me that he can get others to agree that I’m a fascist.

            It does actually prove my point quite nicely, because Arcade‘s reasoning for why I’m a fascist is … drumroll please … he doesn’t like me and wants me to shut up.

            His next comment will double down on this “you’re scum” thing. It’s contempt coding. Demonstrate contempt for me, applying the frame of “gross thing, to be removed”.

            This whole thread is bait for my comment of course. The baiting goes like this: Make an open-faced declaration of war against a category vaguely defined as “people we’d like to hurt but need a label for in order to justify it”. Then, when someone objects, on the grounds that “hey don’t you guys tend to just use that label as a dog whistle to mean people opposing you?”, you can threaten them with the label itself.

            “Remember buddy, this is a room where we’re smashing fascists. We wouldn’t want to put your name on that list now would we?”

            This whole sequence of moves is being played out again and again. Always the same message: get in our way, speak up in opposition or question, and we turn the violence on you.

            Tactic as old as time. Arcade is playing an ancient role here.

              Parent was pointing to what you wrote because Nazis literally say “everyone one I don’t like is a Nazi” when people call them such. Seems like you’re trying to disarm people who are crying wolf. That doesn’t make you a wolf, just a tool.

                Yes. Given I am not a wolf, I am opposed to being called a wolf.

                Glad you can comprehend that. Not sure why you think it makes me a tool.

              Well said, that’s a good explanation of the pitfalls of this tactic. I’ve enjoyed many of your previous comments as well and I think you’re a cogent independent thinker, which is increasingly rare to find.

              My only quibble is that I don’t quite agree that you’re being threatened with violence in this situation. It raises an interesting concept, which is that the internet allows us to essentially act out these debates and conflicts without the implicit threat of violence that has historically accompanied them, due to our anonymity.

                Yes it’s true: I do have anonymity here and so any threats of violence are not that alarming.

                But I am being threatened with violence here, given this thread contains two things:

                1. A call for violence against fascists
                2. A claim that I am a fascist

                If you don’t see how those two things add up to a call for violence against me, I don’t know how to draw the connection for you.

              i don’t like you and i want you to shut up, so i don’t see what the problem is.

              remember folks, the winner is whoever wins. put your enemies in the fascist bashing room before they put you in it.
