New twitter logo just dropped. Let's call a spade a spade.
Disclaimer: I know the flag looks like shit. I didn't really try and make a well done, symmetric n**i flag. The entire point is to illustrate the general intent, not to make a symmetric "asshole flag".
Edit: the sample size isn't that big yet, but around 20% (19.51% as of this edit) of downvotes is definitely uncannily aligned with the average percentage of far right voters... (I'd show data from the US too, but you guys haven't yet learned how to count to three in politics... So data is severely lacking.)
Elon sucks and I'm glad he is destroying twitter, but being obsessed with "X" because he is a moron who thinks X is cool doesn't mean that the new twitter logo is a nazi logo. Additionally if you put literally any monochromatic logo on a red field within a white circle it will kind of look like a Nazi flag. Stop being intellectually lazy.
God, people like you are so annoying. Maybe Elon just is just a dumbass who likes the letter 'X'. Not everything has to be a conspiracy. Go touch grass.
I think you need to take a step away from whatever bullshit you're engaging with online.
I had a friend who would became obsessed with knowing everything about the alt-right. He started seeing false dogwhistles. If someone sent him a message with 👌he would assume they're a Nazi.
I think Elon is a prick who caters to the right of politics, but I don't think he's a Nazi or a fascist. Every time the left becomes too hyperbolic about who is a Nazi, the right uses that as ammunition.
This is the hyperbole I'm talking about. This is a metaphor. All metaphors break down when you start looking for discrepancies.
Maybe I don't see a problem with sitting down at a table with 9 Nazis because they're friendly with me and I'm curious about why they believe they're right (and maybe I can use the Socratic method to make them question their beliefs). That doesn't make me a Nazi.
I agree. Whether through ignorance or maliciousness, these people will turn you over to authorities to be camped or killed. Yeah, they’ll cry about it after, and tell themselves they’re doing the right thing.
Every time the left becomes too hyperbolic about who is a Nazi, the right uses that as ammunition.
That doesn’t even matter, they will literally use anything as ammunition. There isn’t a “more” or “less” convincing set of arguments they use to make their point, they just say a lot of things all the time and go with what seems to stick.
I'm kinda in agreement with you. The right has a seemingly limitless supply of ammo, but I don't see that as a case for not caring if someone gives them more.
All it takes are bad slogans to entrench their beliefs. "All cops are bastards", "math is racist", "defund the police", and "all white people are racist" make them think the left are insane.
More than anything, this is a war of optics, the left are more educated, more tolerant, more generous, and if we are going to deconvert anyone from the right, we need to show them we aren't morons.
Reflexively jumping to Godwin's law is the fastest way to lose.
