    I was banned from Reddit for saying I enjoyed the parts of red dead redemption 2 where you had to kill slave owners and kkk members. Literally said I enjoyed a mainstream video game and the main quest. Inciting violence against polygons in an imaginary world that took place 150 years ago.

    Imagine saying you enjoyed playing Wolfenstein.

    14 year account. RIP.

      Yeah, I’m not sure what’s up over there where it suddenly became not ok to punch Nazis.

      It used to be even mainstream media encouraged punching Nazis. Don’t watch an old Blues Brothers movie if punching Nazis offends you too I guess.

      I think reddit ostensibly banned /r/ChapoTrapHouse because the mods weren’t banning people who said slave owners should be killed.

      Wolfenstein: new order is pretty sus.

      In the game there’s actually a Jewish Cabal conspiring against the third riche, which would make the Nazis…right?

      Great game tho 7.8/10

        And that kind of shit is exactly the reason why there’s still a denazified German version. Killing Nazis isn’t the issue, putting them in a metaphysical context, derealising them, etc, is what’s the problem. You don’t want kids one day to think of Nazis as fictional characters.

          Wrong. Nazi symbolism is just straight up banned in Germany. There are exceptions for stuff like documentaries and also for use in art. Movies have been accepted as art for a while. Videogames only recently. The regular version os The New Order is now available in Germany. I am german and I have bought on steam.

      Reddit also banned me for saying nazis deserve to be punched. A comment I made under a post similar to this. Appearantly making such posts is fine, but commenting the same shit is unforgivable.

      I got booted for saying we should kill them, in relation to a repeat offender pdf file.

      Literally the next comment in the thread was saying it should be legal.

      Probably because it’s not okay to assault people who you disagree with or find unforgivable. Down votes and punching is easy, little kid stuff. Seeing where they are coming from, what they’ve been through, and understanding why they are this way, and helping them see their way out of it. That is the difficult part.

        “People I don’t agree with” and “Nazis” aren’t the same people. I sympathize with people who have lives that lead them down the path to that, but once they’ve committed themselves to Nazism and start saluting in the street, then there’s no more sympathy.

        To be clear, you can come back from a lot of shitty beliefs. I have. But I also didn’t march in white pride parades with swastikas. I’m not talking about run of the mill conservatives.

      My parents raised me with unfortunate views, as did the churches they forced me to attend. It was only through life experience that I came to realize they were wrong.

      Violence didn’t help me, it made me feel isolated and more inclined to think that those using violence against me didn’t have rational arguments against my views.

      Violence doesn’t win arguments, and it should be a last resort, using it for instant gratification is a sure strategy to prolong conflict.

          How could you call them Nazi?!?!

          They’re only saluting Hitler, the literal figure of the Nazi movement and regime – see, absolutely innocent!

          The word Nazi gets used so inflatedly these days. Also, why is everyone calling me Nazi?

    I was once banned from Reddit for correctly pointing out that the medically approved cure for Nazism is one fist, applied directly to the face repeatedly until the afflicted individual stops being a Nazi.

    The medical professional applying this cure can substitute any handy blunt object for their first if so desired.

      Similar thing happened to me.
      The Nazi that I responded to had threatening language, and wished harm on me and whatnot, but they remained unpunished.

    I’ve only just joined after about 11 years on reddit, and I’ve only just realised we can say this shit about nazis here. I feel like a weight just lifted off my back.

    Reminder that Mahatma Gandhi was a plant by the UK government to stop the india independence movement, and delayed independence by decades. Also a pedophile. Nonviolent protest doesn’t work.

    I definitely appreciate any punch that gets thrown in a Nazi’s direction, but I agree, stay safe. If you have a can of industrial strength bear mace, use that, instead. Really get in in their holes, too. Mouth, ear, and nose. If you are brave enough, try other holes, too. Every hole filled with bear mace is one less hole spewing vile hate speech.

      So bear mace is typically weaker than mace meant for people. So I recommend full power self defense mace/pepper spray for use against nazis. Other than that small detail, I’m fully on board with your recommended plan.

    I’m generally a very peaceful person.

    But I think physically attacking tyranny, and tyrants, is morally justified.
