David Dees is an undiagnosed, unmedicated, untreated moonbat. Don't bother trying to find some kind of consistent meaning in his "art", like he's just some wingnut whose utterly wrongass belief system is nevertheless grounded in something. Dude is certifiably goddamn bugshit.

Just enjoy it for itself. Dees is pretty harmless.

I thought he was diagnosed and used to be medicated, but stopped?

So many of the replies there are people missing the point and going "yeah but he's right, though, both are bad" as if saying "nazis are bad" exclusively mean "only nazis are bad".

It's either incredibly internally consistent or incredibly stupid (it's both) considering these are the same people who firmly misinterpreted the meaning behind "Black Lives Matter". In some absurd little way it makes sense that they also are going to insist that "Nazis are bad" means "ONLY Nazis are bad"

Did you spam them with WWII propaganda posters?

What kills me is that "let's not have the bloodiest conflict in human history again" is a valid argument against not getting violent with Nazis, but they always blow right past it in their hurry to smugly tell everyone how violence is never the answer.

Because I was not a Nazi.

Because they want to say the left is just as extreme as the alt-right so they have to come up with terms like alt-left and uh... Well communism is a lefty thing right? And communists killed people or something so... Communists = Nazi. Exact same thing.

but really, it's probably this. America has a real thing for "communist" being the big bad to the point of absurdity. I get the feeling there's probably a bigger focus on evil communists rather than nazis in your schools?

I went to private school so I can't speak for others but since we fought communists for 10 times as long and the USSR posed more of an existential threat to us, I would guess yes. Whether the Cold War and various hot wars related to it were justified is a different matter.

It's basically "communism might be a noble idea in theory, but in reality the manifestation of it in the hands of greedy venal humans is that it becomes a global evil empire bent on removing personal agency and freedom and sentencing humanity to live in gray concrete boxes eating gruel and singing songs about how great Big Brother is".

That's how nicer schools like mine taught it anyway.

The Nazi's would've faced less than half as much opposition as they did if they called themselves the party of feeding all homeless dogs. And also made regular uniforms look like Silver Age comic book characters.

Stupid people get so hung up on names that no matter how many times you point out how poo poo PETA and the Democratic People's Republic are in contrast to their name it wouldn't make a difference.

But the same people also think antifa are fascists so it's really just whatever fits their narrative.

These things always happen on a weekend and they always say the same stupid poo poo (though this one is better because someone says they're "wasting their weekend" right above it).

I mean, when I worked retail at a corner store I worked weekends a lot, but lots of people a) have better schedules than I did or b) don't work retail.

And yeah, the juxtaposition in particular made me laugh a little bit.

I tried to tell someone that at the very least communist ideology doesn't seem as hosed up, and communists and other leftists in general (as opposed to tankies) seem to recognize that those regimes are bad and basically not even communist, with criticism going back to the '30s, while nazis just straight up idolize the loving nazis. He wasn't having it though, because he's seen communists call for killing people who disagree with them on Tumblr.

I remember Al Franken talked about a policy that some group (State Department, I think) had a policy that you couldn't join if you were ever a communist or you were a nazi between 1941-1945. "It's probably a good policy. You can trust someone who became a Nazi in 1946. You know they're not a fair weather friend."

To me this is a true difference between the left and the right. The majority of the left can look at something "leftist" like the USSR and say "that's hosed up, we disagree with that entirely" but the right goes "it's because people didn't let them swing right HARD ENOUGH."

One of my Navy acquaintances seems to be advocating :biotruths: while trying to pretend that he's not. I don't understand where he's going with this. The thread started with him speculating about why no one denies that eclipses happen like climate change, and turned into him calling trans people mutants and insisting that gay people are a biological disadvantage. He's never been opposed to gay marriage or anything like that, so it seems weird for him to be saying this poo poo. Although I forgot to expand some of my posts before uploading them.
