I remember seeing Kingsmen in theaters with my super conservative dad, and he stood up and cheered in the theater when the depiction of the black American president's head exploded.
It wasn’t that they cheered for the destruction of Nazis, and now they embrace them. They cheered the wanton violence against “otherness”, someone they could be told was the enemy.
Not one member of my family that currently supports Trump saw that film. Every member that hates him saw it.
I feel like a lot of you make assumptions about how popular your favorite media is amongst varied groups. Sorry to burst your bubble, but there was not a single KKK member in the audience. The police officer with the Punisher tattoo didn't watch Inglorious. Charlie Kirk never saw the film. They knew they wouldn't enjoy it.
It's not surprising at all. It was always there, the hatred. Mango Mussolini gave them the green light to be reprehensible shit bergs and now we have people grieving for a dead fascist racist shit stain.
It’s true - even at the height of anti-Islamania in 2001 W kept the reigns on the racism. And no, I have not gone soft on that war criminal christofascist moron, I’m just expressing the astonishment that somehow even with him being the lowest bar possible, the GOP managed to dig deeper.
The thing about your decades-long obsession with nazis and taking them so seriously that you depict them as things serious enough to warrant violence, *you validate the hell out of them.* If you really want nazis to go away, you need to stop giving them what they want and give them something opposite.
In my opinion, if violence makes them feel big and threatening and to be taken seriously, then ridicule would be the most effective deterrent.
You really are just the most insufferable, pathetic sort of dweeb. And the "lol americans love violence" is just the cherry on top of that pile of bullshit you bothered to type up, too.

Nazi's were bad when they weren't us. Not bad ideologically, just by definition. *le sigh*

It's a shame all the rotten eggs aren't going to be in the same basket at Charlie Kirk's funeral this weekend.

Hate to burst your bubble, but a lot of those people saw it. And it's weird you would get so angry and lie about it.

They don't think they're Nazis unless they're German and wearing swastikas,
InitHello
They're only nazis if they come from the Nazi region of Germany, otherwise they're sparkling fascists.

This. I have a cousin who is MAGA and is obsessed with the Indiana Jones game because you can punch nazis.

Time to send them welcome materials for the new American nazi party and see how they react
