What the fuck?

I think you need to clarify, because it sounds like you're saying that the only reason that people have a problem with Nazis is PC culture.

and that you're saying people making a big deal about Nazis is a bad thing, people should either not care about Nazis or return to not doing anything about Nazis even if they cared?

Keep in mind this is in the context of doing a full Nazi salute, which is pretty unambiguous.

Is that really the hill you want to die on?

This is a bot my guy. There are a few on Lemmy. They artificially drum up interaction with emotionally charged responses that don't say much. You could copy paste their comment to anything.

How do you know its a bot tho? Right-wing extremist do exist irl, you know that right?

[–] Randomgal@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

You know most people are just regular people who just want to live their lives in peace, right?

[–] DeathByBigSad@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Yes, but even in a deep blue city, I've personally seen trump signs... lunatics exist.

Claiming all far-right account as "bots" underestimate how dangerous these extremists are.

Of course, that user might be a bot. But not all of them are bots. And that's what's scary, the fact that these opinions are actually held by real people.

[–] Randomgal@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 days ago

No. They are bots. Or paid/forced humans.

Can you imagine how humorous this is?

[–] PeriodicallyPedantic@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 days ago

Good to know. Idk why someone would do that on Lemmy, but I guess I'll have to keep an eye out

[–] Soktopraegaeawayok@lemmy.world -2 points 2 days ago

Beep berp. Do you have a long 30 guage metal shaft 2" in diameter that is lubricated with WD-30, at the least?

If not not I am self lubricating. When frictions reach 120 degrees I will shut off heating elements.
