Oh jesus, see poo poo like this is retarded as gently caress. On one hand, people say Trump is a loving idiot and can't speak and all the words he uses are dumb words for dumbo dumb dummies. Then you say "oh also he's talking in secret code words and is LITERALLY CALLING FOR GENOCIDE, TO MURDER ALL BLACK PEOPLE, BECAUSE HE IS A NAZI."

Come on man, Trump is an idiot who sucks but he is not "an open Nazi." That word has almost lost all meaning because the left has been calling every republican one since the first Bush.

This is true to an extent. Crazy internet people have been calling Republicans Nazis for years. Trouble is the alt-right are real actual Nazis and Trump keeps giving them accidental support by saying dumb things because his skull contains a moldy vidalia onion instead of a functioning human brain.

MIllennials needed a compelling villain to bring meaning to their lives of soulless consumption so they decided to go to war with the pathetic remnants of far-right white supremacists left in this country and along the way amplified and empowered them. Similar to how the media most critical of Trump just couldn't loving stop covering him every second during the campaign. Nazis existing isn't the left's fault exclusively, but to deny the hand they had in bringing them to the national stage for this dog and pony show of self-righteous affirmation is self-delusion.

Man, all of this loving WWII nostalgia outta nowhere. I get that this generation is kind of bummed out we got a bunch of boring modern day wars in lovely deserts, but having a hardon for a conflict that happened almost 80 years ago is the most interesting development out of this whole thing. I thought the Cold War nostalgia was weird enough, but we're just gonna keep going back in time. Like, sorry you didn't get to re-enact your favorite parts of Call of Duty in real life but you aren't fighting a massive foreign war machine here. When you hop on your 50 cal now you're just gonna be gunning down like, ten schlubby white dudes who blame immigrants for why nobody wants to gently caress them. S'not that glamorous man, you're not really fighting the power here.

lol yeah it's true, WWII nostalgia is pretty recent and isolated

The exact number of heavily armed white supremacists openly organizing with what seems the tacit endorsement of the president is hardly the matter of contention

I completely agree, I just believe Trump, and the self-professed "Nazis" out there, are all too monumentally stupid to pull off any secret code word ethnic genocide or whatever. They are barely intelligent enough to form sentences.

It's interesting to think that the 'top kek wpww' 4chan nerds are basically a neo-freep for the right where they were quickly thought of as being a powerful force, and now they're sliding back into unknown mediocrity and probably won't take it well when the GOP ignores that they exist.

Honestly, what really happened is that the white supremacist movement got a president they support for the first time in, well, many decades.

This is not me saying Trump is, himself, a nazi-- I don't think he is. I think he's willing to take their votes, certainly, because I don't think he has any moral center whatsoever, but that's not the same thing.

The trouble you have here is that the militia movement, which has for DECADES been super marginalized and planning all their actions in a fantasy war against the federal government, has shifted targets to people who are more possible for them to kill.
