I've blocked all the nazis trying to engage with me saying nazis aren't bad so I'll just say this in a TLC and block more nazis when they reply -
It's funny that all the people calling ME evil for not considering the nuances of various people's nazi ideology..... Are the same people who think women should die for wearing jeans, and that people should die for having a different religion, or die for not sharing a skin tone...
Nazis are nazis are nazis. If your world view was so different, spoilers, you wouldn't identify with nazis. 🤷
Also, just to see if they have even the tiniest bit of plausible deniability, I checked out Midgard's shop. There's overtly white supremacist shit ALL OVER the place.
It's not like these people accidentally supported a band with reprehensible beliefs behind the scenes. It's not like a totally normal music shop turned out to be a front for white supremacists. There's note even any serious argument about "separating art from the artist." The leak includes what people bought, and you can tell when someone bought overtly white supremacist music. And even if they didn't, and the band or album name doesn't give anything away, what's it doing at the Nazi store? Why isn't it streaming, or on Bandcamp, or self-distributed? These customers still had to know there's an obscure Nazis music store, what it's called and where to find it, confirm that it's a Nazi store the moment they went there, and still give them money and their address to place a mail order. Oh, some of them aren't native English speakers? Then that just makes it even more damning that they did all this with a language barrier in place!
Plus, just look at the apologists in this thread. They're fucking cowards. They can't just come out with their beliefs, so they're just asking questions, deflecting from the topic. One is concern trolling for the fundamental humanity of literal Nazis, despite the fact that the main fucking problem with Nazis is that they considered marginalized groups subhuman. Where's the concern there? Why the focus on the people who oppose Nazis rather than the Nazis themselves? Another one could barely resist giving the game away by saying they've been called a Nazi before because of their anti-immigrant positions.
The people defending this shop and its customers aren't serious people. They're dishonest, cowardly, and stupid.
Check Talia Levin's book, Culture Warlords. She spent a year undercover online as a far-right personality and wrote about the encounters she experienced. It was a rough time, clearly. She's in the punch-a-nazi camp and reading her book landed me there at the end.
I would advise to call them Neo-Nazis instead of Nazis. Most Nazis are dead and Neo-Nazis are given too much distraction by giving them this easy excuse.
I think people who defend nazis, their right to believe in nazi ideology, and argue that nazis are overall fine people are nazis or nazi apologists which are equally unwelcome in my circles and consciousness. Sorry, I'm not going to feel bad for hurting nazi feelings.
You can reply to this and "um actually" all you want about nazis, but if you're pro-nazi, I'm gonna block you. Easy peasy.
Yeah I'm economically far left but socially I lean a little further right, which has gotten me called a nazi before, which is ridiculous if you actually know me haha
To be fair, understanding the damage of hierarchy economically while simultaneously rejecting intersectionality and upholding it socially is an extremely fringe view to have. Socialists with conservative social views are very rare in developed countries and online.
Tldr I'm a pantheist who believes there are simply too many people on planet earth and I'm also very intolerant towards most religions, I guess that would make you want to call me an ecofascist which I don't really identify with either, but it's a lot less infuriating than being called a nazi
Isn't it funny how when you add context, "maybe Canada is taking in too many immigrants at once" turns into "yea, I'm probably better described as an ecofascist even if I don't like the way that sounds, and I am intolerant and believe in overpopulation?"
All I'm saying is that my suspicion was a lot closer to being correct. Ecofascism is far closer to Nazism than mere "immigration too quick" ploys, and it makes sense to call you a fascist in that context.
Maybe reconsider your positions if they even put you in the vicinity of fascism? Just a hint.
You remind me of apologists who argue somebody can't be a nazi even though they spout the ideology and use the language, because they aren't on record saying "I heart Hitler" three times in a mirror.
It's not coincidence, there's alot more nazis running around on some nazi shit. By the way in case you didn't know, while I don't recall it coming up in the music (I have a Burzum CD around here somewhere) but - Burzum/Varg was increasingly on some nazi/white nationalist shit, so it's not some "fuckin LiBrUlZ" conspiracy to call everybody a nazi, you were just wearing a shirt associated with nazi shit. 🤷
I know who varg is. It's impossible to listen to black metal and entirely avoid this kind of thing. I was wearing a hvis lyset tar oss shirt, there are no such themes on the album, and I bought the shirt way before varg went full nazi on YouTube (it's counterfeit anyway so he got nothing from me)
The only black metal I avoid are ones where nazi themes are explicitly in the lyrics
Do digging on the people behind any black metal band and you'll probably find something similar, it's extreme music made by extreme people
You're missing the point - you weren't called a nazi cause you were wearing a sccarryy black metal tee. You were called a nazi for wearing a nazi's tee.
Whatevs, you've made it abundantly clear that you're being intentionally obtuse in defense of nazis so I'm over it. Bye Felicia.
