Or a movie prop. Or a weird stag night. Or a mentally ill person unaware of the severity of the joke. Or theres a gunman behind the camera making him put the armband on. Or digitally altered before release. Or the list goes on.
What you think you see “Nazi scum punished”
What you actually saw “man gets punched”
Im lowkey shook fr how easily #2 becomes #1. Again, I’d like to point out I’m all for nazis getting fucked up.
So youre happy that you know based on a 2 second gif and it doesn’t even slightly worry you how easy it is? Maybe it was cut to only show the good bit, but maybe its been cut to rob you of any context.
We have the ability to make anything look like anything, and we’re cheering on violence based on a momentary flash of bad-guy logo, while being the same species that had literal witch- finders like a few generations ago.
I’m more worried now, because instead of seeing the point I’m trying to make people seem to be assuming I’m defending nazis.

But you are reaching.
There are certain things you never choose to do. Pretending to be be a Nazi is one of them.

You are normalizing them by defending a guy who chose to dress as one in public.
