Punching Nazis in the face is a long-time beloved tradition. I suggest everyone try it sometime.

Earlier, imgur removed a post featuring a Nazi getting punched and so, the Front Page and a nice chunk of Usersub, is all Nazi-punching and fash-bashing.
I got permabanned from reddit for posting the question "what would Eisenhower do if he was present with a machine gun?" underneath a picture of a Nazi march in Wisconsin. Apparently, that is inciting violence in reddit view. Gotta keep those Nazis safe.
I got banned for replying to a sexist bigot who was saying gendered slurs and I quoted him and got banned also for using the quote feature to keep him from editing his comment. Mods banned me, didn't listen to appeals, then it became an admin issue and the admins chased me around banning my accounts for ban evasion and then eventually hit me with an IP ban and ignored all appeals, because "the original comments have been deleted." So if I want to talk shit to nazis there now I have to use a VPN.
A 12-year-old account perma'd because I called out someone for using the B-word in a relationship sub.
I am just so thrilled that our largest communication platform is being so diligently managed with such great common sense and healthy community standards. I bet the AI is going to make it even soooo much better.
Yeah, the right is the most delicate of snowflakes. They'll ban you for asking a question, they'll plug their ears and yell shit about emails if you say something that hits home and they don't have an answer.
I got banned for implying that the Israeli palatine conflict is more complicated then an episode of G I joe. And I have said some crazy fucked up shit that flew by the radar.
The Americans certainly took their fucking time to get involved though.
You can always count on America to do the right thing... after they've tried everything else.
And the nazis were inspired by the manifest destiny and praised the Jim Crow system.
Don't touch my boats.
If you want them to get involved quickly you have to have socialist revolution.
Or discover some oil that needs some democracy.
We didn't hate them until we thought they might actually take us over as well. We weren't fighting Nazis, we were fighting "un-Americans". It's literally just another flavor of racism(that we helped teach the Germans lmao - they loved our concept of eugenics)
Notice how after Nazis it went to Commies, the other "un-American" type.
Anti-fascism is so Orwellian that Orwell himself said that every fascist should be shot.
Orwell himself said that every fascist should be shot.
Actually, he described the method that should be used to burn them in their tanks... but it comes down to the same thing, I guess.
I'm paraphrasing for effect. I'm specifically referencing his statements about why he joined the Spanish Civil War. I'm pretty sure he never said "every fascist should be shot" but it makes for a shocking surprise for a chud who thinks that antifa is "Orwellian" because they're "the real fascists".
I’m pretty sure he never said “every fascist should be shot”
Probably not, but he sure as hell thought it - as we all should.
Remember, we didn't beat the fascists during WWII using arguments and polite discussion. We bashed the fash back then, we can and must bash the fash today.
we didn’t beat the fascists during WWII using arguments and polite discussion
Ironically enough, we beat the fascists with a command economy aimed squarely at maximizing war materiel production. Free enterprise my ass ...
Let's be fair to the alt-right. Oppression, racism and all their other values are also American traditions. What a great melting pot!
(insert kanye west level take here)
Yes, the great American Traidtion of gross indifference until the Japanese attacked Pearl harbor.
That's really not accurate. Prior to Pearl Harbor we were 1) helping extensively to re-arm Britain in their fight against Germany, 2) fighting an undeclared but active war against German U-boats in the Atlantic, and 3) placing an economic embargo on Japan in response to their ongoing invasion of China - the very act that precipitated the Pearl Harbor attack.
So's shooting traitors and burning their fields!
Get Billy back out here so we can do it proper this time!
Do it again Uncle Sherman
Since the captain america of the past was the result of a military program initiated by a government directive. Any such program today would likely result in a super nazi So, no thank you. Pity
I mean, right here, we are looking at a pic where Captain America could have killed Hitler but instead chose to give him what is, by his standards, a love tap.
Cap isn't even one thats opposed to killing.
Gotta keep in mind comics are funhouse mirrors for the society theyre created in. Pretty sure killing hitler wouldve been seen as the perfect end to a campaign, but then there would be less chance Cap would be needed again
True, I know the real behind the scenes reason he didn't punch him so hard his head came off of course. But in universe its an issue. I know most comics had lots of crap of why he didn't get killed by the supes? He had a giant collection of crap like kryptonite and whatnot to keep them away.
Make America Fighting Nazis Again -- MAFNA!
I'm curious: who is the great artist who drew this panel?
It's in Jack Kirby's style but I don't think it was drawn by Jack Kirby.
