Nazis

[hawlsera@lemm.ee]

This is every fucking conversation I have with my right leaning friends at this point.

[mushroomm@sh.itjust.works]

No we all said watch the fuck out the nazis are buying up everything and even wrote a nazi playbook. The fuckin wolf was real all along. Fucking morons just decided to ignore. The boy lied in the story. He didn't lie here.

[remembertheapollo_@lemmy.world]

They’re still working on it.

[thecolonel@reddthat.com]

Start calling them Nazis and Nazi sympathizers, to start.

Honestly, the simple act of doing that has calmed a lot of the dissonance in my brain.

[4oreman@lemy.lol]

what does this guy have against nazi's?

[spacehooks@reddthat.com]

Gentlemen gentlemen that's just a actor on his way to a show.

[default_defect@midwest.social]

Kinda weird that its only an echo chamber when it leaves out the right.

[lemminary@lemmy.world]

He can nazi what the other guy's saying.

[lemminary@lemmy.world]

heart went out

That cold, shriveled, thorny accessory organ flew across the room at match speed and took someone's eye out.

[lemminary@lemmy.world]

There's always that one commenter, eh.

[wizardbeard@lemmy.dbzer0.com]

You personally? Sure. But there have been people online misusing the word (and similar things) for fucking ages, going back at least as far as 2010.

This goes back a lot farther than the last election campaign, farther back than Trump's first "reign", farther back than his first campaign even.

::: spoiler Background on Jon Stewart for those unaware of him
Jon Stewart has been out of the public eye for a long time, so I expect there's some people around unaware of his work. Did a comedy news show for years where he tore into the bullshit going on in the world, in the news, and in news orgs like Fox hiding behind a false "both sides" narrative back when they still cared enough to fake it. He got Crossfire cancelled when they were stupid enough to invite him on for an interview and were shocked that he wasn't willing to be a comedian on a show that claimed to be real news and he instead systematically and thoroughly called them out as the travesty they were.
:::

Jon Fucking Stewart called out the dilution of labels through overuse in his closing speech at the Rally to Restore Sanity in 2010. The rally done as a reaction to the Tea Party rally in D.C.

That is to highlight that the "boy who cried wolf" shit was happening all the way back then and was already a big problem.

"If we amplify everything we hear nothing. There are terrorists and racists and Stalinists and theocrats but those are titles that must be earned. You must have the resume. Not being able to distinguish between real racists and Tea Partiers or real bigots and Juan Williams and Rick Sanchez is an insult, not only to those people but to the racists themselves who have put in the exhausting effort it takes to hate--just as the inability to distinguish terrorists from Muslims makes us less safe not more. The press is our immune system. If we overreact to everything we actually get sicker--and perhaps eczema."

People didn't get the fucking message, which gave cover for the real racists and nazis to slither around and significantly helped to get us where we are today.

Where an over rich manchild clearly on some sort of substances can give two half assed sieg heils, and then follow it up with the most half assed excuse during a fucking presidential inauguration and instead of being tackled by security and hauled the fuck off never to be seen again, people are sitting around giving him the benefit of the doubt.

Jon Stewart called out the dilution of labels like racist etc in his closing speech of the 2010 Rally to Restore Sanity. It was a problem all the way back then.

By the time you started yelling about the real dangers, the boy who cried first had already came and went. The sheep were fine. The boy grew up, got a decent paying job amd moved out of the state. Another boy came by yelling the same thing. Still no wolves. Sheep still fine. Repeat more times than you can count.

It's not your fault, but it's stupid as hell to pretend that people didn't start taking those labels less seriously due to overuse.

[thebat@lemmy.world]

Aaaand blocked. Keep fellating Trump and Musk

[thebat@lemmy.world]

Cut them off.

[greenknight23@lemmy.world]

try using it sometime, tell us if it's lost some of its power.

[4oreman@lemy.lol]

[arcaneslime@lemmy.dbzer0.com]

You don't know if I'm allowed to or not. Oh wait I forgot everyone on the internet is a white american man, right?

[shardikprime@lemmy.world]

Please yes, isolate yourself for the cult

[shardikprime@lemmy.world]

Meanwhile bro on his way to a reenactment of The producers: Springtime for Hitler: The musical

[shardikprime@lemmy.world]

Proof? Or is disagreement with you enough?
