At least now it’s easy to see who’s a fash and they can’t hide behind the “concerned moderate” facade anymore.

Case and point:

Also anyone compiling a list of all the shitfashes reacting to the seig heil? Would be useful for easily dismissing anything they say in the future.

    Musk has outright agreed with tweets claiming, openly and without any dogwhistles, that Jews want to exterminate the white race. He’s been mask off for a while if people wanted to see it, and collaborators still make up excuses for him siegheiling in public. They will continue doing so when he shows up in public with a swastika armband or hangs a portrait of Hitler in his office.

    The salute can, ofc, still alarm people who didn’t pay close attention before, but i wouldn’t overrate the propagandistic usefulness. It’s been decided for a while who’s on which side of history in this.

        Nazis tend to support Zionism since it’s an example of the type of fascist ethnostate they wish to establish, and also accomplishes their antisemitic goals of removing Jewish people from their population by creating a designated place for them. They are aware of the contradictions but that’s never stopped them before

        Most modern Nazis are big fans of Israel and zionism, on account of it being an ideology that removes jews from Europe. it’s why Orban and Netanyahu can remain good friends, as neither of them want there to be any jews in Europe / America.

        not really, we’re doing a more inclusive nazism this time around, jews and slavs are invited as long as they’re rabid nazis.

      I guess my view is that because this was such a flagrant and public display of nazism - it’s impossible for anyone to deny it with “oh I hadn’t seen his anti-semetic and racist tweets so I didn’t know” - there’s no room for doubt now and anyone that attempts to excuse it is obviously a bad faith actor and can be dismissed outright.
