People keep pestering me about how Republicans aren’t literal Nazis when I compare them to literal Nazis.
I don’t want to be judicious and exact about Nazis. I want to freak out and notice when a group starts seeming like Nazis.
So due to the fact that they’re probably going to kill us all now that we hesitated too many times, I’ll say it at last: it’s morally correct to punch people who aren’t freaked out about Nazis.
not helpful. childish acting out, really. i’ll agree that it’s justifiable to be scared but it’s rarely helpful to act scared and hit people because you can’t make your point to them. regardless if whether your fucked up morality tells you it’s okay, it’s still not helpful, it’s still clearly about your own emotional needs and not about making the world better.
Your opinion is really not helpful, and the only people you’re defending want you dead or subjugated. I’ll agree that it’s rarely helpful to be violent, but fascists aren’t party to any social contract, regardless of your fucked up “pacifism at any cost (to others)” morality. Calling people childish is clearly about your own emotional needs, and not about making the world better.
People who say “they aren’t as bad as the Nazis” always only think about the time after 1934 or even 1939. This, right now is the before-time. Of course they aren’t as bad as the successful, established, in control Nazis yet. But if you look at the time between 1920 and 1933, when the NSDAP wasn’t in power yet, the parallels are terrifying.
