The best war to have with people like Fuentes & Kirk, is no war at all. Let them take each other down. Because in the end, the "purity test" they subject each other to will always fail and they will turn on each other like rabid dogs.

I agree, but it sucks that half of the country is convinced that the other half of the country is at war with them, when the violence seems to be coming from inside the house.

That's probably inevitable, but I do wonder if highlighting these individuals to normies is valuable.

They "think" the country is at war with them the way Nazi Germany "thought" Poland attacked their radio station.

That's how most war is tbh - a random small group of people insisting on it. Sometimes it's two kings, or sometimes it's just Putin, or a small group of world leaders. But most of the time people hate the most their direct neighbors and family, the people they interact with the most. That's why most murders are personal and petty, cheating and breaking up, etc, not something big or ideological. War isn't a very natural state of being for those in it, but it sure makes people at the top very wealthy and keeps young women single and lonely.

Me too. "Nazi". Americans just can't use existing words but have to make up their own.

Tbf reusing the same words for peoples new or different idealogies is how we wind up with words losing their meanings. New words can be useful.

The definition of groyper is the same as a nazi.

The Groyper movement has been described as white nationalist, homophobic, nativist, fascist, sexist, antisemitic, and an attempt to rebrand the declining alt-right movement.

(Wikipedia)

Call people what they are.

Really? What's the difference?

"white" and "aryan" are synonymous in their world.

... again, there seems to be no difference between Fuentes' ideology and nazism.

Nicholas Joseph Fuentes (born August 18, 1998) is an American far-right political commentator, activist, live streamer and leader of the Groypers who promotes white supremacist, misogynistic, homophobic, and antisemitic views. Fuentes has promoted antisemitic conspiracy theories against Jews, called for a "holy war" against them, and has denied the Holocaust. He has been described as a neo-Nazi by various sources.

I’ll save you the energy, it’s just a person who is even farther right than the typical Right wing person and who criticizes typical right wing people for not being right wing enough. Like, maybe someone who would kill Kirk because he wasn’t right wing enough.

I am all for 8chan trolls taking MAGA on. MAGA wouldn't stand a chance and it would be entertaining from the sideline.

Yeah, seeing dude, and the memes he was putting on casings. I think this is very much a Fuentes boy. The second I heard the Hell Diver's code on a bullet casing I was like, "Ah man it was one of those fucking 4chan rejects that killed him."

lol yeah when I read the messages were something about bulges, owo and lmao gay, the first thought that jumped into my head was this is some 4chan incel shit.

Thanks! I've had an account for two years but never really used it a lot.

It's been a nice social media alternative after this past week's events.

Yeah that makes sense, I've been avoiding the outside world as best I can. I'm glad you're here, have a good one! :)

Not yet, as Lemmy doesn't really have video support at this time. Uploading to a user-friendly host like Catbox is already a solid way to do it, since they're ad-free and registration-free, so you're doing fine!

A similar joke has been used before to describe a British politician, but Nick Fuentes weirdly looks both like a child thats wearing his dads clothes, and a paedophile.
