  I wonder if it’s the rise of neonazism…?

    Let’s call a spade a spade. It’s Nazism.

  What’s the deal with the grid symbol? The “hashtag” with extra lines?

  source

  • dusty_raven@discuss.online ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    I believe the point is the swastika is actually hidden in the grid.

  Turns out people on the “left” can be just as easily manipulated as those on the right. Surely its our own communities stoking violence between americans. Noone from outside the country could possibly want that for us, could they?

  Why’s it so easy to spot right wing propaganda but not left wing propaganda?

  source

  • DomeGuy@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    Because right-wing propaganda is “become Nazis, the left are all sub-humans” and the left wing propaganda is “what the fuck, the right are all Nazis!?”

    It’s hard to spot propaganda when it’s just the truth spoken loudly.

    • Rekorse@sh.itjust.works ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      Its the same message flipped. Its just as bigoted and divisive. And its not coming from americans either, this is other countries citizens attempting to tear america apart so it stops being a blight on the world. Hard to blame them, but we shouldnt be so naive.

    I’m not american so excuse my ignorance but are you defending nazis?

    source

    • Rekorse@sh.itjust.works ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      I’m pointing out that non-americans like to point the right at the left calling them violent antifa, while they do the same with the left by calling those on the right Nazis. Then Americans think the posters are also american and get angry at americans for it.

      Its simple manipulation, cause my enemies to fight amongst themselves.

    Left wing propaganda is… Being explicitly anti Nazi? Bro, I think you might be a Nazi if this offends you.

    ‘The only good Nazi is a dead Nazi’ isn’t left-wing propaganda, it’s what my grandfathers taught me. Those men were definitely not “Left-wing” lol!

    What would you prefer for your new user tag, Offended by Anti-Nazi Memes or Swastika Fan?

      While not true, swastika fan made me laugh so I choose that one.

    Can you elaborate on your point? What is the propaganda here? Who are the foreign actors?

    source
  • MightyThistle@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    Being anti-Nazi isn’t propaganda any more than being anti-genocide is propaganda. Being anti-Nazi and anti-genocide means you’re a normal and reasonable person. I’m not even left wing I’m an anarchist. But I’ll happily rebel against systems which are corrupt.

    source

    • Rekorse@sh.itjust.works ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      Promoting the labeling of large groups of people you have never met as Nazis, and then promoting violence against them, is a fantastic example of propaganda designed to create conflict and distrust amongst a community.

      Shouldnt be so hard to see, I’m not sure why lemmy users are so susceptible to this type of manipulation.

    Well, if they wear the flag, display the Swastika, do the salute or go on about white supremacy, that’s a pretty solid hint.

    A Nazi is (originally) a particular brand of fascism, but much like champagne, it has become a generic term for the whole family of ideologies. The “ur-fascist” definition by Umberto Eco, who was witness to the fascist regime of Mussolini, highlights a few key traits if fascist ideology like a cult of tradition, emphasis on machismo and action over thought, obedience over independence, contempt for pacifism and weakness and populism that leverages frustrations, conspiracy theories and fears to rally its followers against some perceived enemy.

    Not every trait is fascist on its own, but neither does some movement need to tick all boxes to be fascist. There’s sure to be some grey area, but if you have people rushing to inflict violence on anyone looking differently, spurred on by a guy promising to restore some ambiguous past glory by blaming the economic and social troubles on foreigners and beating the war drums… yeah, well, eventually the indicators start piling up.

    • thethunderwolf@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      By that definition, the US is fascist. Which it is.

    A lot of people get called “idiots” but that doesn’t mean I can’t actually differentiate who’s really an idiot.

    I wouldn’t call this propaganda. Propaganda is done deliberately and this seems to be a popular sentiment. Even if it’s a quirk of the algorithm (which I’m not sure these could be posted chronologically, imgur sometimes does that iirc) it’s still not deliberate.

    Why’d you start your comment with “heh” and end your comment with “sunshine”? Seemed creepy and condescending, and makes it seem like you feel that the backlash against Trump and White supremacy is just propaganda and not how people actually feel.

    source

    • SreudianFlip@sh.itjust.works ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      Sam_Bass’s comments are mainly mildly contemptuous one-liners. Condescending is part of the persona, and when others interpret that manner as right wing, it seems to affirm sam’s misanthropy.

      Personally, I view it as propaganda still, but I don’t view propaganda as bad inherently.

      Propaganda to me is just an organized effort to persuade a larger audience of people politically. Its only bad if the aims are harmful unjustly.

      So people organizing a take over to reiterate “No fucking Nazis!” Is a propaganda campaign, but its based.

    a company has no moral guiding principals outside of monetary gain. its board of directors members may have their own individual viewpoints, but as a collective, a corporation is representative only of the shareholder’s shared interest in making some money. if they wanted anything else, they would collectivize into another form.

    generally speaking the best, i mean the best, you can expect from a BoD member is liberalism and all that entails. from a liberal perspective, pacifism is a virtue to be signaled, not an overall approach to the world with a goal of bringing about a just and fair society. liberals preaching non-violence don’t really care if someone is preaching violence so long as they don’t practice violence and the results of the preaching of violence remain unseen.

    that’s how you wind up with liberals saying that the founder of turning point usa did things the right way and denouncing someone doing exactly the things he said were good to do, but moreover, denouncing people who have trained in violence accessing that violence in self defense. in the fight between fascism and anything other than fascism, violence must be used to denounce fascism because it is the only language fascists speak. you can use non-violence to interact with other political positions. those are positions who do not practice solely violence. but fascism believes access to violence grants license to use that violence. you can only counter this belief by rendering it scared to show itself in public
