look i'm really sorry to have to put cold water on your furious masturbatory fantasy, but it's really unlikely that ScoMo's wife is a cryptofascist

Or she had the misfortune of being in the same room as Don Jnr for 30 mins, and really that's all it takes for the brain worms to do their work when you're already down with locking up browns.

Congratulations, you have correctly identified a difference between the swastika and the ok symbol. Next try to identify a difference that is meaningful to the conversation like say how they are not both existing symbols that have had their meanings changed by how they are used and the people who use them.

You live inside a stupid post modern fantasy world where watching too much tv is a path to wisdom and not just extended adolescence. Get a grip.

i know we have fun throwing around terms like "brain worms" but this isn't how human beings work, going from strangers (albeit fellow travellers) to "so you've heard about pepe the frog, right" is a fairly complicated social maneuver

The reason I’m not going to seriously argue about scomos wife giving a white power gang sign is that it’s stupid on its face. What’s more interesting to me to debate and discuss is the decisions you conspiracy theorists made to see the world this way. How much brain-poisoning media you couch potatos consume to see a woman holding her child steady for a photo and conclude she’s making a nazi gang sign because the world works that way.

You know I've never actually seen someone straight up admit that they weren't actually debating and were just attacking a strawman the whole time. Good job I guess? Half of your responses were to me who quick hint stated outright I don't believe that the gesture was intentional but good effort nonetheless.

two things can be simultaneously true

1. 👌 is a white supremacist symbol, as proven by white supremacists using it as such

2. Morrison's wife didn't intentionally use it as a white supremacist symbol, and the only reason the Liberal Party twitter deleted that tweet is because they were (understandably) swamped by leftists calling them white supremacists

You misunderstand.

What you are saying is dumb. Too dumb for MOST people. Say this garbage in meatspace and you will be laughed at. It’s only online where we need to hem and haw and act like your idiotic conspiracy theory driven by 4chan trolls as if there is something to it.

I’m interested in the way the broken online discourse empowers the worst kind of people:

1) right wing trolls, and
2) credulous idiots who think that giving those trolls credence is the way to fight them.

tbf the thing about effective antifascism is that you have to know your enemy, and when you dismiss online fascist activity as incredulous trolling and not the serious problem that it is, you're giving the fash the plausible deniability that they want instead of actually fighting it

treat every online far-right troll as the real threat that they are, and treat every sign of far-right activity irl as the real threat it is, and hey presto! you have yourself an effective antifascist movement
