FFS, Please Stop Normalizing Nazis

You Think This Wouldn't Be Too Hard

But, here in the United States, it is.

When Elon Musk did a Roman salute, he should have had to resign in shame the very next day. Instead, people got mad at the media for reporting it and gave the excuse of his autism. If autism made people nazis, RFK Jr. would be a bigger fan. After all, nazis like eugenics. Elon ended up slithering away back to the bowels of the internet that inspired him to do the salute in the first place, and continues to make Twitter into the same infested sewer he enjoys spending his mouth breathing hours in. What a sad way to live a life. All the money in the world, and he spends most of his time with a bunch of incel contrarian trolls in the most dead cultured part of the digital village, all because he never learned how to properly make a friend.

Wal-Mart, one of the largest retailers in the US, hell, probably in the world, was selling nazi gear in their store. We wouldn’t have even known about it if it wasn’t for the hard-hitting journalism of…TMZ. I talked about it on stage.

Then there’s Nick Fuentes. Nick’s a nazi, even though people keep trying to peddle around it. GQ even did a spread about that guy. Are the ladies going gaga for genocide?!

Recently, an op-ed came out comparing Hasan Piker to Nick Fuentes. The corporate media in the US will do anything they can to peddle horseshoe theory bullshit. Yes, the horseshoe theory is bullshit, that’s a different post for a different day.

I posted about the Hasan Piker/Nick Fuentes Op-Ed. My take was/is we’re living in very troubled times when a SocDem is being compared to a literal nazi. The post did kinda well across platforms. It was pummeled with comments. Of course, these comments would be in opposition to Nick Fuentes, right? I mean, talk about a reasonable take, right? Nope. Most of the comments were in opposition to Hasan Piker. From across the political spectrum, even. One person even doxxed Hasan.

Feedback Included:

Hasan isn’t a SocDem, he’s a Communist, and that’s bad.

Hasan isn’t a SocDem, he’s a Communist, and that’s good…why are you so dumb?

Hasan is a capitalist.

Hasan is a liberal.

Hasan supports Democrats.

Hasan doesn’t support Democrats enough.

Hasan said a thing about America that hurt my feelings.

It was freaking mental. I don’t really watch Hasan Piker, I don’t watch much punditry in general. I don’t really know the guy. In fact, I knew Hasan more way back in the day during the Aggressive Progressives era at TYT. Back then, he was “Cenk’s nephew who works in sales.” Then he started making some videos here and there. Then, I’m guessing, he discovered Twitch and the rest is history. But, whenever I’d see him around he was just a dude sitting at a cubicle cluster, and he kind of stuck out because he was the only one who looked like he had just finished a body building session.

Every cause and candidate I’ve ever seen Hasan Piker support would indicate he’s a SocDem, maybe he’s to the left of that, maybe he isn’t. I don’t really care and for the sake of my post it’s not really relevant. The point is that they’re comparing a dude who tries to help elect progressive candidates, raises money for people being harmed by ICE and genocide, and buys pizza for strikers to a flippin’ nazi.

Whether you like Hasan Piker, or any other streamer, doesn’t matter, the point is when they’re being used in comparison to a nazi, it normalizes nazis, which is an absolute chilling trend that is happening in the United States right now.

Here’s Neera Tanden, a DNC lurker who proves obedience and a complete lack of awareness can keep one employed by a political party that is the equivalent to the Washington Generals of politics, retweeting a nazi. Because, clearly, that was her only option. There was nobody else in all of social media uttering a similar who idea who happened to not be a nazi. She just needed to retweet that nazi. (I mean, this was on Twitter, but I still believe she had a few non-nazi options).

There was an online hoax in 2017 where an old guy in Argentina claimed that he was, in fact, Adolf Hitler. That hoax went viral again recently. Which hey, why wouldn’t it? If Adolf Hitler is alive, what better time could there possibly be for dude to make a come back? He saw Elon’s salute on TV and decided it was time. Being in South America, he wouldn’t be too far from the place where he has the biggest following. If he did relocate to the United States he would have some tough choices to make: Which LA-based talent agency he’s going to sign with, when exactly he’d run for Congress, that sort of thing. One thing he could depend on is a bunch of near brain dead YouTubers babbling about how he’s the “actual leftist.”
