There seems to be an epidemic of "awkward hand gestures" and "Roman salutes" and according to some people on Twitter we're not allowed to call them Nazis because we can't literally read minds. I'm so tired of enablers.

You'd think it would be easy to avoid doing this, but watch as the MAGA scum come out of the woodwork to rush to the defense of another guy who totally didn't mean it, honest.
If it quacks like a nazi.....
I all invite them to come to germany and do it :)
Germany is literally right on the edge of their own fascist issues right now. The symbolism may not be as directly 1to1 as America. But the outcomes are building up to be the same. Germans learned all the wrong lessons from their past and now the "never again" seems to be "well, again, but only to Muslims this time. We promise it stops there"
How's that song go? "Tell them that the Nazis never really went away". They weren't kidding.
it's worse than that, we shift all the guilt about antisemitism and nazism onto muslims, so that they're perceived as the actual nazis and we're innocent happy fellows who are bestest of friends with The Jews™ who just happen to all support and live in israel and no other jewish opinion or existence is allowed or acknowledged. the palestinian genocide really is a denazification, israel is just cleaning up little hitler babies with daily bomb and drone strikes.

I hate Illinois Nazis.
Distraction & diversion. He's revealed his "secrets" in length in the past about his calculated moves in puppeteering the media and general discourse, preventing us from focusing on what's actually important. It's already working on the shoddy news media of 2025. Don't let it work on general discourse as well
