Reminder that Anti-fascism is so Orwellian that Orwell himself said that every fascist should be shot.
…and?
We should probably listen to him on that

FWIW,
It will be seen that, as used, the word ‘Fascism’ is almost entirely meaningless. In conversation, of course, it is used even more wildly than in print. I have heard it applied to farmers, shopkeepers, Social Credit, corporal punishment, fox-hunting, bull-fighting, the 1922 Committee, the 1941 Committee, Kipling, Gandhi, Chiang Kai-Shek, homosexuality, Priestley’s broadcasts, Youth Hostels, astrology, women, dogs and I do not know what else.
A target rich environment
Poland can into space, faschies can into goo.
Spanish facists can also into space. Or at least one can in 1973
Back when I went to bars, (like 2011), the one I frequented had some anarchist bouncers. Since it was located near a Greyhound station that dropped off the releases from the state prison: there was a regular stream of shit stirrers coming in still stuck in the prison mentality and struggling to adjust.
Negative gauge lip and ear man with Freddie Mercury stache would materialize. Just deadlift the nazi and walk him out of the bar.
So do commies get mommies?
after they are done giving bashies to the fascies
Nommies. Nom nom nom. Eat them or feed them: Bill the cat’s or Opus’ plan?
Wondering:
OP’s picture’s reversed? Nazi swazi rotates the other direction. Extra message?
Easter-NaziSwazi-egg?Manji’s robe’s (Blade of the immortal - 無限の住人) yin yang swaztika goes the direction shown (with a black/white halves background) in original manga.
Depends on what kind of commie they are. The ones on here get bashies.
You’re right, I should rewatch Pop Team Epic
YOUR LIFE HAS BEEN SPARED
Why does the Nazi ball look like they like it?
Homofascism
Wow. OP can punch right.
Don’t worry, I punch right often. You’ll forget about this incident too as soon as it’s convenient for you to do so, though, just like you’ve forgotten every other time.
The problem is that everyone who disagrees even a tiny bit is now considered “right”
I mean, OP’s talking about literal nazis here.
Is that only a tiny disagreement from your positions?
I think the problem he’s referring to is that some people are naming every small racist prick a nazi and that that devalues the meaning of the word.
Kind of how comparisons with the holocaust are very strictly regulated in Germany in order to not shift the Goalpoast.
Not everyone, they could be tankies too.
Liberals are desperate to keep things the way they are, so they have no patience for leftists or conservatives, and actively shun both, then blame leftists when they lose.
Tankies aren’t leftists and conservatives are not the opposite of liberals. Conservatives oppose progressives, liberals include conservatives and progressives. The DNC and GOP both have a lot of conservatives in their ranks. The GOP has fascism and bigots and the DNC has social democrats and (probably some stealthed) democratic socialists.
Not everyone, they could be liberals too.
Tabkies are desperate to keep things the way they are, so they have no patience for liberals or conservatives, and actively shun both, then blame liberals when they lose.
FTFY
Tankies desperately want an American Communist party to be the only party, they don’t like the way the US is run, and want more change than anyone is comfortable with.
That they shun the others is about the only thing you got right there.
I can’t even keep up with the terms and labels anymore, they sure as hell don’t mean what they used to mean
They have no patience for leftists but desperately want the approval of conservatives.
What color is the sky in your imagined-reality?
Keep abusing progressives. Maybe conservatives will eventually respect you.
And remember kids: who are the fascists?
Whoever we say it is!
Nah, fascists are fascists. You can’t just water it down with idiotic nonsense. You sort of sound like a fascist, to be honest.

My apologies, I assumed it made sense in the context, but I guess not.
I was basically trying to answer your question. You called the guy a fascist, and I was just saying that more likely, people like that aren’t actually fascists, just useful idiots for the fascists that will end up being disposed of once they’re no longer useful.
Because fascists aren’t human beings.
I’m a piece of shit, apparently. What are you for insulting someone over a misunderstanding and not even bothering to acknowledge it?
Your account is two hours old. I don’t trust you at all.
You don’t have to trust me, but you can trust my words, surely? I recycle accounts every couple weeks.
Please, DM me your last account, as this is feeling ban evasion. If it isn’t I apologize, but your writing style seems familiar.
I can’t think of any prosocial reason to recycle accounts every two weeks?
I kind of sound like a fascist eh?
Did you mean to prove my point?
Nah, you already did that yourself.
Yeah so basically the word “fascist” here is being used as an opening to allow violence. What Arcade is doing is threatening me with violence, by showing me that he can get others to agree that I’m a fascist.
It does actually prove my point quite nicely, because Arcade‘s reasoning for why I’m a fascist is … drumroll please … he doesn’t like me and wants me to shut up.
His next comment will double down on this “you’re scum” thing. It’s contempt coding. Demonstrate contempt for me, applying the frame of “gross thing, to be removed”.
This whole thread is bait for my comment of course. The baiting goes like this: Make an open-faced declaration of war against a category vaguely defined as “people we’d like to hurt but need a label for in order to justify it”. Then, when someone objects, on the grounds that “hey don’t you guys tend to just use that label as a dog whistle to mean people opposing you?”, you can threaten them with the label itself.
“Remember buddy, this is a room where we’re smashing fascists. We wouldn’t want to put your name on that list now would we?”
This whole sequence of moves is being played out again and again. Always the same message: get in our way, speak up in opposition or question, and we turn the violence on you.
Tactic as old as time. Arcade is playing an ancient role here.
Parent was pointing to what you wrote because Nazis literally say “everyone one I don’t like is a Nazi” when people call them such. Seems like you’re trying to disarm people who are crying wolf. That doesn’t make you a wolf, just a tool.
Yes. Given I am not a wolf, I am opposed to being called a wolf.
Glad you can comprehend that. Not sure why you think it makes me a tool.
Well said, that’s a good explanation of the pitfalls of this tactic. I’ve enjoyed many of your previous comments as well and I think you’re a cogent independent thinker, which is increasingly rare to find.
My only quibble is that I don’t quite agree that you’re being threatened with violence in this situation. It raises an interesting concept, which is that the internet allows us to essentially act out these debates and conflicts without the implicit threat of violence that has historically accompanied them, due to our anonymity.
Yes it’s true: I do have anonymity here and so any threats of violence are not that alarming.
But I am being threatened with violence here, given this thread contains two things:
- A call for violence against fascists
- A claim that I am a fascist
If you don’t see how those two things add up to a call for violence against me, I don’t know how to draw the connection for you.
reasoning for why I’m a fascist is … drumroll please … he doesn’t like me and wants me to shut up
i don’t like you and i want you to shut up, so i don’t see what the problem is.
remember folks, the winner is whoever wins. put your enemies in the fascist bashing room before they put you in it.
Why don’t you list a few people who you think this comic refers to who are not, in fact, fascists?
They’re assholes who want to serve a dictator
Lol triggered? Do you feel called out or targeted?
Good.
