What's up with that weird answer? These creeps never give a straight answer when you ask them direct questions. If that person just wants to be edgy and thinks it's funny... Well, maybe they're a dumb, poorly socialised teenager. Cos it's not funny. It's not even a joke, really, is it? What's the joke? That they're not actually Hitler?

The halo and angel wings on the pfp take this to another level imo.

you'd hope it's a teenager, but my experience with the right informs me that it's more likely an adult with teenage sensibilities.

Yeah, you're right. That would take it from a kid being a shithead, into something a lot more sinister.

Yeah, it's pretty bizarre. Regardless of the intended level of irony, it's a very bad joke, in all senses of the word 'bad'.

Not every sense of the word -see Michael Jackson - Bad, George Thorogood - Bad To The Bone, Badass, and so on.

I think the reason for that is insufferable people like OP will always respond.

There's really no point in discussing with people like that. They have an agenda and they won't stop until they get what they want.

That's why OP is even making this thread in the first place.

Wait, who's the "people like that" in your middle paragraph? Is it "people who masquerade as Hitler online", or "people who ask why"?

Honestly, I didn't report it. I just ducked out. Since I seemed to be the only concerned party, I assumed the mods wouldn't care.

If you care enough to take a screenshot and post it to lemmy you could have reported it. It's worth doing, at least just to know you did something.

This and mods can't be expected to monitor everything all the time, users are the mods' eyes and ears. It's not fair of OP to put the server on blast without having reported it to the mods.

Noticed it as well, left the server. I use some dotfiles from archcraft on my system, but immediately un-archcraftified my installation. Such a shame.

Yeah, it's a bummer. Why must they come for everything we like?

They will. Report, and you see if the problem is one user, or the mods. If the mods are racist, it was never your thing. If they get banned, then you keep Nazis out of one more place.

a friend's discord is just like that, has someone worshipping "god emperor trump" and lots of rampant racism

he's not racist i don't think but it's sickening he allows that sort of thing in there

He created an environment that he's comfortable with. If he didn't like racism his discord would be different.

he's just a privileged "racism is funny" white guy that has never processed how awful it is for people to get discriminated agains

Yes that's someone who's comfortable with racism.

the Linux community in general has a bit of a right wing issue from what I can tell and I can't really understand why that is.

Social isolation -> loneliness -> disdain for society -> fascism

so you assume that the typical linux user is socially isolated and lonely?

Is the typical Linux user a right-winger? Truth be told, I do not know.

no, i think not. pretty sure theres even a possible left or libertarian slant, but not right wing. they are the fray and they shouldnt bring shame on us all.

The isolation can be anywhere, they are pointing out the stages. Linux community is not immune.

Linux does not have a systemic problem with politics, yet. But like any population, bigots exist and are loud and worthless.

What parts of the Linux community do you see this in?

The parts I'm in have no Nazis and not much right wing support because right wing nowadays trends Nazi.
