Who gives a shit, no one asked them
One thing I do miss about pre-internet era is that neo-Nazis and other groups like them didn’t have much of a platform, at least not in the 80s when I grew up.
Now I’ve seen peopl who even oppose deplatforming them in some twisted notion of “free speech,” and major news outlets spreading their opinions like the plague.
I agree with you. We shouldn’t care. Just punch the Nazis and get on with our day.
In 1989 David Duke got elected into the Louisiana house of representatives.
Yes, the guy who was the grand wizard of the KKK
I think you’re having rose tinted glasses
No, I remember that well.
I think you’re egregiously misinterpreting my comment, and I don’t much appreciate that.
Tell me in what ways neo-Nazi propaganda inserted itself into the home of the average person daily in 1989?
Now look at the front page of reddit, 4chan, or – hell – this fucking news article.
Nazis existed, never said they didn’t. I’m saying they have a farther-reaching platform, and anyone who allows them to post their propaganda is complicit.
in the same way that everything has a farther-reaching platform, I guess. I am not sure if the proportions are really different. Nazis were in the streets, graffiti, stickers, music, newspapers… they always have a platform as long as it’s profitable.
you’re correct, it is a louder problem now. and a more pressing one. but i’m not sure if it’s “worse”
Why would anyone (except other nazi fucks) give any shits what those douchenozzles think?
Because Republicans listen to them, and Democrats cave to Republicans.

Just like your irony of claiming me being a massacre apologist?
You still won’t call it a genocide.
Same reason people give a shit what Republicans think: they have enough influence to matter.
For its part, the Kremlin has been a relentless recruiter of neo-Nazis to its cause; the co-founder of the mercenary Wagner Group, Dmitry Utkin, not only named his organization after the Third Reich’s favorite composer but had the logo for the Waffen-SS tattooed on both sides of his neck
In before OP tries to spin this as “Ukraine bad” rather than the reality that there are a portion of Nazis on both sides of the front line.
Do you know something about OP that I don’t?
Brand new account with a questionable post history. Smells like a shill to me. They also deleted this same story from another community where they had posted a bunch of nonsense comments.
Did they just find out Zelensky is Jewish?
Probably because the leader of Ukraine is Jewish.
Ffs i thought people as dense as you were in psych wards
