lol I can see the value in ridicule as a Machiavellian tactic, especially with self-important narcissists like Trump and Bolsonaro, but I also think that while doing that you should still be mindful of the potential implications of what you're saying.

Mocking individual fascists is the easiest thing in the world. Problem is, that's not enough, and they know how to deal with that. You need to deal with the root causes, while making violent examples.

Noone's really addressing his point which can be more succinctly put as asking the nazi where the gently caress is his chin is an insult to the chinless.

Phlegmish posted:It combats the fascists as individuals, which can be useful, but it does not combat their ideas. In fact, it implicitly reinforces their preconceptions and values, as even their opponents gleefully use those to judge them. I always figured it's a "live by the sword, die by the sword" thing. Like, I don't give a poo poo if someone is or isn't muscular, has or hasn't got a strong jaw, etc. but (1) many fascists do care and (2) most of them fail to live up to their own image of attractiveness and success to ridiculous degrees. I'm reminded that back in a feminist discussion group about ~7 years ago, there was a discussion whether it was okay to shame the editor-in-chief of some tabloid who relentlessly critiqued young women's appearance while he was conventionally very unattractive, old, with serious eyesight problems and mottled skin. I still think mocking him was justified. From that, of course, you could pull... Ellie Trashcakes posted:Yeah, with all sorts of unpleasant, classist and casually eugenic undertones. ... and while you can make a case for it buying into beauty or fitness standards, I offer this as a counterpoint: no, it's not nice to mock or shame someone for their appearance, especially elements they have no control over (like age, bone structure, skin colour, etc.) but at the same time let's not pretend that someone's appearance matters even if you remove the stink of ideology. Human beings aren't rational. To some, appearance matters a greater deal than to others. I will never begrudge a woman for not wanting to date me because she prefers athletic men with bodies sculpted like Greek gods, but at the same time body positive sometimes keels over into pointess ~everyone is beautiful!~ claptrap, which is both void of meaning and can never be true because attractiveness, fitness, etc. are always subjective judgements that everyone makes all the time. The best we can do is limit how it's poisoned or skewed in our own culture, which I am 100% on board with.

Where the gently caress is your chin is a direct refutation of the white supremacist's belief that he belongs to a master race possessing superior dna which must remain unadulterated by the lesser dna of the non aryan. That is why his chin or lack thereof in this context is relevant.

White supremacists are always their own best counter-arguments in more important ways than not living up to their own arbitrary standards of physical appearance nonsense, though.

[sitting in front of my computer chinlessly, my micropenis not obstructing my view in any way] and furthermore, we should stop making fun of Flemings simply for having a silly ethnic name.

It's hard to say for certain, because they're obviously not shown. But it appears that none of the three photos in that article are of someone dressed as a sumo wrestler or a snickers bar, and that seems to me like terrible journalism.

The fact that the small peepee emoji turned into a page-long derail about Nazis is kind of the point behind it. Something like "women are treated as second-class citizens in Korean society and this is fine, but make even the weakest slight against men and a lot of people suddenly get very upset for some reason"

fisting by many posted:The fact that the small peepee emoji turned into a page-long derail about Nazis is kind of the point behind it. The thing is, by making fun of small penises they’re not making an argument against misogyny, they’re just showing they can be lovely in the exact same way. And likewise, telling a nazi off for having a weak chin does not attack their ideology, but just chastises them for hypocrisy. And that kind of implies there might be some validity to their ideology. “You’re supposed to be the master race, with a chin like that?” Vs “There is no such thing as a master race, fucko.”

Lobok posted:Versus? What about plus! No! The argument against a master race is not that some proponents do not meet their own criteria. Because that implies that with a better chin they would have a better claim to being the master race. And saying misogynists have small penises implies that having a larger penis would make them better men.
