Commenting that Nazis should get punched abstractly (i.e. not a specific Nazi) got me site permabanned from Reddit. They have chosen a side.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 10 months ago

Got a temp ban for that myself! My perma ban came from mass reporting r/truerateme

[–] [email protected] 20 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I got perma IP banned after commenting on a post about how nazis want X minority eradicated: "Well, maybe nazis should be eradicated"

Did I take it too far? Perhaps. Do I regret it? Not in the slightest

[–] [email protected] 13 points 10 months ago (3 children)

Perhaps? How did we come to live in a world where people question themselves about whether we should eradicate Nazis.

There was a time not long ago when the only thing the entire world agreed on was that Nazis should be eradicated.

They never stopped after the war, they hunted down Nazis in their 90s hiding all over the world to bring them to justice.

Half the games I grew up playing involved shooting Nazis.

I mean you probably know that, but I'm pretty sure threatening violence against any group, no matter what group, violates their rules. Making exceptions would just increase their workload.

Same here, said I think punching Nazis is always a good idea like grandpa taught me, banned.

Still think it’s a good idea for the record.

Reddit banned me once for saying someone should take out Putin. Putin. So should we not want one of the most genocidal dictators we've had in some time gone? Ok.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago

I think I know where reddit keeps getting it's "fuck around" money

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I only got shadow-banned for my anti-nazi content, but one of my posts was removed by reddit themselves

I hate how the POS system at one of the gas stations near me instead of the normal "transaction successful" sound, plays the sound of Sonic taking a hit and losing all his rings.

It's just too on the nose.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 10 months ago (2 children)

here's a video on why some registers use Sonic sounds!

[–] [email protected] 33 points 10 months ago (1 children)

That was an unnecessarily long video just to say "Idk maybe it's licensed"

[–] [email protected] 7 points 10 months ago

But you still watched it. At least I know not to now.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago

The fact that it's Nexpo making the video makes it sound ominous and like a conspiracy lol

[–] [email protected] 42 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Then corporations will create Nazi punching farms and they'll create media and buy off right wing politicians to try to create more Nazis so they can add them to the farm.

Or maybe the nazis all kill each other off trying to make more money lol

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago

All I'm hearing is systematic Nazi punching and I'm still on board.

[–] Secret300 35 points 10 months ago (2 children)

3 days later you jokingly punch your friend of 10 years and money flies out

[–] [email protected] 6 points 10 months ago

Hmmmm....... friend of tens years gets plenty more punches. If it were a friend since pre k, hes get like 3 more punchs. Then deadly stares.

There are now gangs roaming the streets at night beating up anyone they think is maybe a Nazi.

[–] starman2112 33 points 10 months ago

One test slap. No money, join up. Money, 👊

[–] [email protected] 16 points 10 months ago

You can even tell they've been reformed if their nazi ways when the money stops coming, the perfect judiciary system

[–] [email protected] 7 points 10 months ago (1 children)

If that's how he feels then why doesn't the genie just poof Nazis out of existence in the first place?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 10 months ago

It isn't a genetic condition (unlike what Nazis would want you to believe), it's a memetic stupidity condition... new ones keep turning all the time.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (2 children)

Uhm. Doesn't Sonic drop rings? Not coins or there is some variant that does? Or are the rings money? I haven't played much Sonic tbh.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago

The rings are not money in Sonic. You are correct.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Yup. I guess she mixed up Sonic and Mario. Shouldn't affect the joke to much I guess.

I was wondering why I'm seeing so many replies here jumping to defend the Nazis and then I realized this was posted on world.
