In the migration to lemmy, this community’s admins have the chance to drop its startlingly racist name. Wasn’t funny back then, and it’s still not funny.

Why keep the nazi memorabilia around?

    It was funny then, and it’s funny now.

    You do know that rightwing fuckwits actively use people like you as a recruiting tool to show people examples of “how idiotic and heavy handed the left is” when giving them reasons to join up for their Hitlerjerk wank-ring organizations.

    They literally make compilations of examples like this to create the narrative that the opposition has lost their minds and are coming for everyone’s free speech with their cancel culture, and use this to argue that somehow nazism is clearly the reasonable choice in contrast.

    And as ludicrous as that is, it actually works depressingly well.

    A certain willingness to have a sense of humour is a worthwhile thing to have when online. Nobody is being threatened by a reference to a joke about the console wars and the PC Vs Console circlejerk.

    Plus, I have a really good gaming rig, and I tell you, those console peasants have it coming anyway. :P

        I certainly wouldn’t want to be associate with Nazis, not sure why that’s such a hard concept to grasp for y’all. The person doesn’t give a shit about what Nazis think either, they just aren’t using boogiemen like “the left” when trying to form thoughts and opinions.
