That Hitchcock meme is great! But for anyone else who wanted it to be real - it was originally a cure for insomnia, not fascism.
Thank you, I was wondering
Plus Hitchcock was an abusive fuck, especially towards women, and he had a movie that was considered positive about the Nazis by some, but later shot a documentary about the Holocaust that wasn't released until 2014, and two anti-Nazi propaganda films that weren't released until 1994.
Really works for both.
It's a cure for many things some might consider... unnatural.
Nope.
Proof for the curious. I'll let the bot relink to piped, I'm lazy.

A true doomer
My great grandfather used to drop 500lb bombs on them. It was super effective.
Your great grandfather sounds incredibly based!
Mine had the dubious honors of smuggling booze as an early teen, and allegedly helped popularize deposit fees because he would rent all the major party halls in his city, and then cancel all but one, ensuring he ran the only big party in town on a given weekend.
That sounds like the sort of thing my paternal grandad would do.
But what a party!
Mine was a pacifist, but spoke German, so they had him guard the POWs and report on what they said.
My grandfather helped your grandfather by going up in untested fighter planes with the pilots and checking to make sure none of the bolts were loose.
He was also an air raid warden in London, meaning he was out on the streets getting people to safety while the bombs were dropping.
I wish I had an ounce of that man's courage... although, being both Jewish and German, he knew exactly what had to be stopped.
If your great grandfather is a Soldier type he will deal an additional STAB damage as well.
If it was a physical attack, he could've screeched at them in advance to really lower their defence too!
I think your great grandfather might have killed mine. I’m totally OK with this.
Conservative followers don't realize they are becoming fascists. It's sad to watch and no conversation helps them.
I talk to people online who hate immigrants because they are ‘ruining their town’ and they want to make sure their town is ‘kept in their hands’ and when I call them racist for saying that an African shop hand is incompetent because they can’t speak English they can’t accept it.
They don’t see themselves as racist, sexist, homophobic or fascist.
They’ve unhinged from reality.
"Becoming" hahaha that is a good one mate! Good laugh, have a pint on me.
Doesn't 'homeopathic' mean it's massively dilluted to the point where there's none of the original ingredients?
Or am I missing the joke here?
Nah, you're right but many people just take it to mean "alternative medicine", I think
I think the joke is that the bullet is smaller than the baseball bat.
But since it's also far more powerful, the joke doesn't really work for me.
"A system for treating disease based on the administration of minute doses of a drug that in massive amounts produces symptoms in healthy individuals similar to those of the disease itself. "
I believe the bullet is supposed to be the minute dose and shooting all the fascists would count as administering the dose in massive amounts. They could also just be saying it's a homebrew cure since most of my fellow Americans have guns and like to talk about them using them liberally.
Somehow this website is still waiting for an update.
Damn. I check that and this website pretty regularly just to see if I need to drastically change my lifestyle that day and so far I have no reason to change.
Here's a great resource on how homeopathy really works.
On a tangential note, I am amazed that even in homeopathy there are ones who believe it and ones that are outright scammers. What I mean is that some homeopathic (sic!) "drugs" are made out of non-existent ingredients diluted into non-existence even more. To be a quadratic scam seems like an impressive achievement to me
It is all about dilution AND succussion. The shaking is what makes it powerful, that and magical thinking.
I once knew a homeopath who tried to kill himself by taking a massive underdose.
Damn Alfred was gangsta af
Alfred was talking about insomnia, in this gallows humor piece. And his next line was, "an idiot could wield it, and indeed many do." Mocking violent idiots, as one should.
We calls those "freedom seeds"
Homeocidal.

Is that how I have to start signing all my posts to keep from getting banned for promoting self-defense?
I just hope violence is kept at a minimum. Most of the people where I live are Trumpies (well the older crowd especially) and they truly are just totally oblivious. They certainly aren't evil. It's so unfortunate because these are people I'd say are good people. They've never killed or directly harmed a soul to my knowledge. I just hope if there's violence that it's targeted top heavy because we all know who the problem(s) are and they could probably be counted by any tally counter that goes to 1k. AKA don't focus on the manipulated, focus on the manipulator(s).
Please note this is in no way condoning any violence outside of Minecraft
This is exactly how it started in Germany in the 1930ths:
Old people dreaming of the Empire - which by the way did very little for them - and not really into politics. They just wanted a change.
And then voted for their own hangman.
Best argument a relative told me why he voted for Hitler: "I thought he was a funny guy with excellent dark humor. I didn't knew he wasn't joking."
Not directly harming people doesn't make you good or innocent. Hiring someone or enabling someone else to do your evil for you is still doing evil. It may be excusable to say that the first time they voted for Trump, it was an accident. They thought he would disrupt Washington but was essentially no worse than the rest of the politicians. After that, they would have to purposefully ignore everything that he has done. At this point they have seen the true face of Trump and they're still choosing evil.
This is why we're fucked. The only tool to fight violent fascists is more violence. That's why I'm looking into relocating to another country. USA is brimming with violent assholes who can't wait for an opportunity to lash out.
Give those fa$ci$t$ a taste of their own medicine!
Always hilarious when the anti-2a groups post anything revolving around using firearms.
You're so close to understanding the 2nd amendment...we welcome you.
Downvote me all you want. Fascist don't stop using force because you created a meme.
What?
Have you ever considered that you are crafting a subjective world around you that doesn't exist? Nothing about this post has anything to do with firearms or the United States.
It's a commentary on the need to respond to those who use force to dominate others, with force. The firearm, bat, or otherwise is a metaphor representing appropriate uses of violence (to overcome a fascist oppressor).
Being able to understand and interpret images and text is a skill you should have at least learned the basics of by high school, otherwise you end up misunderstanding the whole world and spend your life angry at things while everyone around you looks at you and thinks, "What?".
Found the sheltered grad student
Yes because I forgot how the nazis were defeated...with words and thoughts and prayers.
Also right now in Ukraine they're kindly winning by sending strong worded memes and letters.
And Myanmar, they're also fighting with just words.
You people are delusional if you think you can defeat authoritarian fascist with kindness and words and voting.
The only reason that fascist listen to is force. Get over it. Nothing in this world is given when it has been already taken by force.
Have you been living under a rock for the last 10 years? Antifascist groups in the US have been predominantly armed for a long fucking time. Are you so ignorant blindingly ignorant that you missed that, are you just trying to be deceptive, or are you just so far up your own ass that you can't imagine people outside your cult would be able to defend themselves?
Socialist rifle association exists. Only neolibs believe they don't need weapons to protect against possible tyranny.
2Aliberals, the SRA, pink pistols, Operation blazing sword, NAAGA, JPFO, tons of non-republican groups out there for gun rights. You're absolutely right, it's people who have never had to deal with the reality that other people might exist in a harmful way to them. Most I've noticed live in safe neighborhoods and think the police will be there to protect them.
