Can we stop calling those fucks "white nationalists" and other euphemisms? They're Nazis. Plain and simple.
I believe they prefer to be called "conservatives" now.
If they can dead name, we can too.
They aren’t Nazis unless they try to take over the Alsace region of France. Otherwise they are just Sparkling Fascists
I don't see it as a euphemism.
Fuentes
Will someone please tell him
These goofballs have been delusional for decades. Imperial Japan linked arms with Nazis, but suppose the Axis won? Those leopards would be eating some faces, that is for sure, as there were people in both countries (and probably still are) that had very particular ideas about just what constituted the "superior race".
And yeah, same for places like Spain and Italy. Does anyone seriously think the Nazis would settle for anyone that was not Aryan being left alive?
So it is no wonder that dipshits like Fuentes and that dumbass from the Proud Boys and that gay British guy (I forget his name now) exist. They think they are one of the "good ones". If their awful movement ever gains any power, you can be sure that they'll have their own Night of the Long Knives, and some of the people with non-Aryan backgrounds and non-cishet will be some of the first victims.
ATTENTION!
For all those confused how people who hate Jewish people so much can support Israel.
They hate any one who looks Arab even more, unless they got oil to sell.
Ik it makes no sense, no surprises there.
And just part of white nationalism is that they want Jews to leave their country and move to Israel. (I’m not sure what they think about white Europeans on Native American lands. They probably came up with some bullshit that lets them live in Oklahoma but I avoid people like that. Someone else will have to ask.)
Honestly, my perception of the antisemite/Zionist crossover has always been that is there's a Jewish state then there's a place for Jews to go that isn't here.
I don't know though, that may be entirely too rational for a worldview founded on ignorance-fueled emotions.
Let me introduce you to THE MADAGASCAR PLAN! TLDR-The Nazis planned on sending all the Jews to Madagascar so they'd get out of Europe. They thought to send them to Palestine first, but the British controlled that and the guy planning it didn't want the Jews too close to Europe.
Its really more religious from my understanding. The idea that Jesus will come back sometime after the jewish temple gets rebuilt, I think, is what is being spread. Isreal has to be a sovereign nation for the end of the world to kick off.
This was a large part of the discussion in Europe at the end of WW2.
Germany wasn't the only country trying to decide an answer to "the Jewish question." Some advocates may have had good intentions, but many just didn't want to open their borders to Jewish refugees, and the idea of Israel was a convenient way for them to wash their hands of it.
per·fid·i·ous
adjective
deceitful and untrustworthy
See: Jared Kushner
Edit: Always found it odd that you never hear a peep from him about his father-in-law playing footsie with these people.
I knew the word Perfidious from its best use, Perfidious Albion.
That's one use of the word that was fucking earned. Don't trust the word of the British Empire.
It's also the only use that should really exist anymore. Anyone who uses perfidious in a sentence that is not criticizing the British needs to just stop. And if they're a Nazi jackass, they need to take a thesaurus and slam it repeatedly against their own head until they stop being a Nazi.
Here's a link of Nick Fuentes talking about how women are inferior despite never being in a relationship: https://youtu.be/eaz55gyJ8CQ
but don't worry, he's had conversations with some. So he knows his stuff /s
Here he is talking about how he wants to marry a 16 year old when he's 30, because he likes the milk "right from the tap."
"now we're cooking with gas" is how happy he is with that age gap when he's 40.
You know, there's a lot of weird people out there with weird views. It just blows my mind that someone like this gets the attention they do.
What a creepy weirdo. No wonder the cons lap it up. It's the party of creepy weirdos.
What really puzzles me is how the Qtarded "save the children" crap gets any traction even with the dumbest people in the base - given that so many of their prominent members are such obvious pedos: donnie diapers, Fuentes, Gaetz, etc...
Oh good, I haven't been threatened with death in at least a couple of days.
Nick Fuentes. Surely they wouldn’t throw him in the gas chamber.
This son of a bitch has been talking a lot of shit lately. Of course, when he says "this group must be murdered," and "that group must be murdered," he'll have his kill-billy followers do the job for him while he huddles in the corner pissing his pants. At least Richard Spencer, for all his grotesqueness, could take a punch. This... thing can't even do that.
In all seriousness, it seems like there should be a limit to free speech regarding the likes of Fuentes. Meaning, if you are calling for the murder of millions [1] of people in America, why should that be protected speech? [1] - Depending on what counts as "xtian" in the view of this xtian nationalist thug, it could be anywhere from 1/3 of the population (unaffiliated + Jewish, Buddhist, etc.) to much, much higher if you exclude all but white evangelicals - 86.4% of the country. He's calling for murder on an unbelievable scale - 112+ million to 293+ million people.
I'm sure Elise Stefanki is calling on Donald Trump to resign from his campaign.
It's news that open Nazi, Nick Fuentes wants to finish the job Hitler couldn't because he had his ass handed to him and shot himself in the face?
Was the surprise that Fuentes is a Nazi (unlikely), or that Nazis want to finish the Holocaust (more unlikely).
I'm all for shining a spotlight on Trump courting Nazis, but this is dumb framing.
His surname puts him in the "to be incinerated" category, I wonder why so many idiots don't get it. I mean not really since other idiots pay to listen to this
He's "one of the good ones" for now - much like right-wingers beginning to turn on Shapiro for being an open Jew, it's not sustainable.
As dark as the situation is, I'll take some satisfaction from the leopards eating their faces.
It's like they learned nothing from history. Did they not notice the purges among the Nazis? Maybe he should look into the Night of the Long Knives. Or maybe groups like "Jews for Hitler". Yes, that was a real thing. It did not end well. Per Wikipedia: "The organization was founded by Max Naumann, who was sent to a concentration camp after the rise of Hitler. "
You don't say.
Where is Elies Stefanik and her AnTiSEmTism crusade?
Wouldn't surprise me if even the ADL ignored this in favour of calling Jewish Voice for Peace anti-Semitic.
He can't say "perfidious" unless it's in reference to the Brits and "Albion".
Or "Eldar."
Edit: for the unenlightened rabble who might consider consorting with xenos
Perfidious Eldar! They had the stars in their grasp and now are left to sift the dust of their once fabulous realm. For all their intellect and mysticism they could not contain the beast within them, nor tame the wild monsters of the Shadow. Why should we pay them any heed?
- INQUISITOR GRÜNDWALD, ORDO XENOS
But people keep telling me that Trump loves Israel.
I guess this asshole wants to execute more than 1/3 of the country?
Just who the fuck does he think he is, anyway? What makes xtians so fucking special in a secular nation?
