How fucking hard is it to not give a Nazi salute?

[–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 41 points 21 hours ago* (last edited 16 hours ago)

It is not hard at all if you don't want to do it

Nazis make Nazi salutes

[–] GoodEye8@lemm.ee 5 points 16 hours ago

I'm guessing it's pretty hard when you're a has been and are desperate for any publicity.

He really can't stop with that train, so sad...

From the article:

In February, Friends actor David Schwimmer called on Musk to ban Kanye West from X after he made a series of antisemitic posts.

Schwimmer called on Musk, the owner of X, to remove West from the platform. “This is so 2022,” said Schwimmer. “We can’t stop a deranged bigot from spewing hate-filled, ignorant bile… but we CAN stop giving him a megaphone, Mr Musk.”

Bold of Schwimmer to assume Musk in any way disagrees with Ye's views.

Elon is not just holding the megaphone, he's actively cranking up the volume dial.

I find it strange that David Schwimmer made a public plea for decency when it was about anti-semitism but not for any of the rest of the hateful shit projectile-blasted around that echo chamber.

He just wants to be in the news cycle again.

I don't understand how there can be black people in favor of Hitler. How do they rationalize praising someone who would have genocided them?

Some people will gladly sell out the group they belong to, even when it's absolutely obvious that they will also be targeted later

Mental illness isn't a skin color.

History lessons in the US focus on the Jewish victims of the Holocaust to the exclusion of all others. Plenty of people don't know that gay, trans, leftist, or non-white people were genocided.

[–] Tja@programming.dev 46 points 23 hours ago (2 children)

Even white people. Slavs for instance. Anyone considered crippled. Political enemies.

My mom's uncle, white Norwegian, was put in a Nazi camp during WWII. History lesson.

Their where Jews that helped the Nazi’s early on. They seen themselves as the good Jews.

He got inspired by the Black Hebrew Israelites, a pseudo-religous group that believes african americans are decendents of jews.

If I recall correctly from his infowars Interview (or somewhere else around that time), he came to the conclusion that since he's a jew, he gets to decide if hitler was a good guy or not. It didn't make much sense and I don't recall why exactly he came to the conclusion that he as a good guy, but I think he said something like "There's only love, so he cant be a bad guy".

It's possible he thinks black americans are the real jews, that hitler was doing a good thing with killing imposters.

I'm really surprised he hasn't made an account on truth social, they love that shit over there.

[–] ICastFist@programming.dev 1 points 9 hours ago

I thought maga social was more open on their hated for non whites?

[–] PenguinMage@lemmy.world 12 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

I'm pretty sure X is fine with it too.

[–] dumbass@leminal.space 7 points 16 hours ago (2 children)

X is where the Elon Nazis are, truth social is where the Maga Nazis are.

Kanye is a Maga Nazi.

Drugs in the 90s were responsible for great music and dead singers, drugs today won't work as fine

[–] boonhet@lemm.ee 13 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

So the thing is he's actually off his meds according to a lot of people. Blame the lack of drugs instead of the drugs

[–] Donkter@lemmy.world 2 points 10 hours ago

According to his latest album hes also on nitrous.

[–] Ghyste@sh.itjust.works 60 points 1 day ago (2 children)
