Where are the people saying that just because they're fascists doesn't mean we can call them Nazis? What do you make of this?

[–] DicJacobus@lemmy.world 8 points 20 hours ago (2 children)

aukshully, you cant just throw the name Nazi around because Nazism is a very specific form of german national socialism. and this is not germany.

When it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck...

The trumpnazis are literally taking signs, symbols, gestures, modus operendi, et al from German nazis. It's not wrong to label nazis, "Nazi." If you wish to be pedantic then by all means, trumpnazis would be completely accurate.

[–] cheesemoo@lemmy.world 5 points 20 hours ago

This is just sparkling fascism.

Can't just stay low for one day so we can catch out breaths?
He's like a duracell bunny.

Remember, a chief goal of propaganda is to exhaust.

[–] Twig@sopuli.xyz 4 points 16 hours ago

And distract.

I've lost track of the main, worst things we should be focusing on with this guy. If someone asked what the worst things were, I'm not sure where to begin (because there's so much).

[–] LonstedBrowryBased@lemm.ee 11 points 1 day ago

Doubt Melania would agree

It's the Steve bannon playbook

[–] KeenFlame@feddit.nu 4 points 1 day ago

When nobody does anything he can continue so it overwhelms everyone by the sheer amount of robbery. During the aftermath the spoils will already have been distributed amongst the oligarchs and a bail out is our only option, at which point the heist is complete and class war is won. Then the killings will begin, and at that point no power is left to the lower and middle classes to resist

Wake up new low achieved by the trump 2 administration

[–] dojan@lemmy.world 26 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Whenever you think they can't bury the bar any lower, they somehow manage to fucking find space under it.

[–] Linktank@lemmy.today 7 points 1 day ago

Drill baby drill!

[–] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 15 points 1 day ago

Fucking scumbag.

[–] blackberry@midwest.social 36 points 1 day ago (3 children)

wait, did he share the triangle or just the Washington post article?

[–] AbouBenAdhem@lemmy.world 59 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It was the right-wing Washington Times, not the Washington Post.

[–] catloaf@lemm.ee 41 points 1 day ago (2 children)

To be clear, the Washington Times, Washington Post, New York Times, and New York Post are all right-wing, just different flavors.

[–] AbouBenAdhem@lemmy.world 22 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (2 children)

Yes, but so far the Washington Post (unlike the Times article Trump shared) isn’t openly advocating for purging gays from the military.

[–] pdxfed@lemmy.world 3 points 19 hours ago

No, Bezos is just saying opinion writers should only publish articles supporting free markets and uncritical of fascist dystopian reality we're entering. A huge leap to say he would put money before ethics and throw a minority group under the bus if it helped his personal profits or company.

[–] takeda@lemm.ee 15 points 1 day ago

Give them some time.

That's like saying that eating broken glass, rotten fruit, spoiled eggs, and enriched uranium are all really bad for you.

While technically true, the difference in HOW bad for you is significant and important.

[–] SuperIce@lemmy.world 25 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

He just shared an article that had the triangle in its thumbnail. This article is dumb.

[–] kamiheku@sopuli.xyz 9 points 1 day ago

BREAKING: return2ozma shares anti-LGBTQ+ Nazi era ‘Pink Triangle’ insignia on lemmy.world

[–] iAmTheTot@sh.itjust.works -4 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

He shared the Washington Times article.

Edited to add, correction it was the times not the post.

[–] thallamabond@lemmy.world 29 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Not the first time for this. They posted the red triangle back in 2020 in an attempt to label antifa with it.

[–] dan1101@lemm.ee 5 points 1 day ago

Hmm I wonder what people are upset for? No matter, just charge them as domestic terrorists or deport them if you can. Forget due process these people don't deserve it.

[–] earphone843@sh.itjust.works 17 points 1 day ago

But he's totally not a Nazi, right brainwashed cult members?

[–] Bellingdog@lemmy.world 14 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It lets us know the truth. It lets us knoooooow the truth.

[–] one_fot_mon@lemm.ee 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

He's dumb with the lesbians

[–] cmoney@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Let's dip him in honey.

[–] MyOpinion@lemm.ee 9 points 1 day ago

Of course he does his father was a Nazi and he is a Nazi.

[–] lupusblackfur@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Pfft...

Did anyone truly expect differently??

🙄

[–] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 13 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Honestly, yes. I thought he would do stupid shit like last time, but the economy would still be okay. Shakey, but do alright. Also, I didn't expect concentration camps in the first week either. Now he's selling off our national parks to his tech bro friends and dismantling every social service we have. I didn't expect this.

I don't get why the millionaires aren't giving more pushback. They're not going to be safe either from him.

[–] grue@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

I'm pretty sure you should have expected it because it was all in Project 2025.

[–] PugJesus@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I don’t get why the millionaires aren’t giving more pushback. They’re not going to be safe either from him.

Because millionaires are just as fucking stupid as the rest of the population.

[–] CherryBullets@lemmy.ca 2 points 17 hours ago

It's because millionaires can leave easily at any time, so they don't care.

[–] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 day ago

Apparently, or they think someone else will do it.

[–] Sanctus@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

Just blatantly open about the Nazism. Pretty much everything that modern conservatism stands for came from the Third Reich. On an alternate note, kinda want that pink triangle tattoo'd. We can appropriate imagery too.
