Shout them down in every space, make them embarrased to think the stupid shit they think.

If we don’t embarrass and correct them now we will have to kill them later when they come for our friends and families.

    This is a wonderful point! I recall years ago reading the government said of the hippies that they just started selling them incense (to put it lightly) and it was one of the ways of taking them down from the inside. So this is an old trick used by many. Sucks how insidious it all is.

    How about letting them have “no”, “get bent” or, in extremes cases, a punch to the kisser? Can they have those?

    This is why gatekeeping is actually important. But you’ve got to be sure you’re keeping out the people who want to change the group, rather than people who want to join it.

    They’ve already taken some Metal. Went to a Metallica concert and there were trump flags in the parking lot, militia-style shirts, firearms shirts, blue line flag shirts, Punisher skull shirts…. I was surrounded by White Power and authoritarians. The Metal Heads I grew up with all decided they wanted to carry the batons and riot shields they hated in their youth. Didn’t help that FFDP was there with their military fetish and making commentary about the Biden administration.

      Aren’t/Weren’t Pantera associated with white supremacism as well?

      There’s probably loads more to be fair

        Kind of yes, although their music didn’t have anything to do it, and their “white supremacism” didn’t go much beyond “but can that n----- play the guitar?”, confederate flags, and Phil Anselmo’s “edgy humor”. Some of it was actually overplayed, because Dimebag didn’t play his guitar 100% aligned to perfect rythm, and djent kids didn’t like that. Metallica is more aware its own right wingedness in its music.

      I can believe that.

      I’ve a afroamerican mate here in Sweden, kinda mad lad.

      He’s from NY. Once he told me at every gig he was the only black guy in the crowd (90s), Punk, metal, he always was alone.

      Anyway it seems he had a good time, but I guess NY it’s diffent from many other places in the Us.

        Depends on the band, I guess. Been to some punk stuff and it was really mixed. Metallica was the biggest metal show I’ve been to, there were different ethnicities in the crowd, but I would have felt kinda uncomfortable were I them. E: TBC I felt uncomfortable by what I saw.

          Depends on the band and part of NY. People tend to forget that NY state is huge and has a lot of rural areas. I lived in the Hudson Valley for a long time and went to a ton of punk and metal shows in that area and can say that the crowds were 99% white. That being said, we didn’t give a fuck if you weren’t white; people in the pit only cared of you were an asshole who was out to hurt people.

      I’m kinda disappointed how much I like some of their stuff, but I refuse to support them and their Wehraboo fanbase.

      Dude I went to an Incubus concert a couple years ago and there was a guy proudly wearing a “Let’s go Brandon!” shirt.

      He might’ve been cheering on the singer though.

    We just watched one do a nazi salute twice, on national TV, in the seat of government and not a single member of the “opposition” had the balls to walk up there and punch him in the face.

    The Nazis have won. People care more about civility than fascism.

      The fascists will lose. They always lose. They might seem to have the upper hand right now, but they can only fool the people for so long until they fight back.

        Culturally at least, they have. Not a single Democrat did anything except whine about the very public displays of Nazism.

        Luckily for us the courts and other countries are actually providing some checks and balances, but if we get a Reichstag-style event in the next two years, the Democrats will absolutely fall in line with whatever form the dictatorship decides to take.

    They already took flags in multiple countries.

    It’s always iffy when you carry the flag of your country because the people who do that tend to be assholes. Let’s not let them get anything else.

    And take the flags back too.

    I remember when Anime ang gaming were pretty progressive. Now they complain wokism about everything. God fucking damn.
    Then the hentai thing is insane how the rape theme took over. They cry censorship and shit but man you follow a guy in Instagram that does hentai ONLY ABOUT RAPE! 80+ works all about rape! You don’t see a fuckin problem there buddy?
    Yeah it gone a little personal.

        Yeah I get it but I mean the NTR and “guy doing the rape” definitely took over. I remember on the late 90s early 2000s it was much more fantasy bs and “lucky guy” stories shit like bible black and house of dolls where the exception rather than the norm.
        I can give it to you that maybe it was always there and I’m having some rose tinted memories, but definitely is worrying and the supporters are quite a handful that’s undeniable.

          Not familiar with that. I’m very curious what kind of hentai you were watching.

          I haven’t watched hentai in a while (since late 90s, early 2000s). I primarily remember the more conspicuous, taboo content that probably drew more attention of foreign audiences: incest, rape, tentacles, pedophilia, coprophilia, gore, vore, etc. I’m sure there was much gentler stuff too, but taboo seemed to get the most reaction.

      Plus they associate war with masculinity and magic with femininity, and their main guy is the god of both. Women fought and men learned magic. Clearly gender was a pretty flexibly concept. (Not to even mention that we found what appears to be trans masc viking burials.)
