Great that you’re there, depressing that you have to be
I'm not even a socialist, but, uh, where can I buy one?
Just a moderate who hates Nazis.
Yesss! Seeing punk with a camera getting a shout out on here just made my day! He's an amazing human and deserves all the support

That's a flag I'd love to see more of
Doing the good work. Keep it up!
“I did not come down from the gotdamn Smoky mountains, cross five thousand mile of water, fight my way through half of Sicily, and jump out of a fuckin aeroplane to teach the Nazi lessons in humanity. Nazi ain’t got no humanity. They are the foot soldiers of a Jew hatin mass murderin maniac and they need to be destroyed. That’s why any and every sumbitch we find wearing the Nazi uniform, they’re gonna die.”

E) Also keep up the good fight
Is this Akron Ohio?
No, this is Patrick!
Yeah
I'm a bit dense... What are those supposed to be? Rifles with bayonets?
Is there a significance to the number? (I think I counted 15?)
I believe they're ammunition, the artwork's shadowing just makes it look kind of odd at that angle.
They are rifle rounds. You can see the cartridge case necked down and the line where the case is crimped into the bullet.
And a very purposeful pair of trousers if you don’t mind me saying so.
I'm gonna be the guy to say why I don't like this.

Anytime I see someone apply dehumanizing language to a group of people -- no matter how vile -- I immediately wonder if this person is motivated by a desire to protect anything or if they are just excited to have found an outlet that allows them to indulge violent desires without jeopardizing their social standing.

This is precisely the type of message and messenger the FBI uses to infiltrate and entrap antifacists. OP, I think it's very unlikely that you're an undercover FBI informant, but you should read up about Micky Windecker, because you're wearing the uniform of an FBI informant and their targets.
Dehumanizing people for their objectively evil anddangerous, consciously chosen, and often acted upon beliefs is not comparable to dehumanizing people for their inherent, involuntary attributes.
If an ideology revolves around harming or oppressing innocent people, its followers are a threat to society and is undeserving of sympathy, compassion, or a place among us, and should be treated accordingly. People who actually act on those beliefs are even worse, and are deserving of permanent removal from society.
Democracy and human rights were only ever possible through violent struggle against authoritarian ideologies, and can only be maintained through the same. To advocate tolerance of those ideologies is to advocate the fall of civilized society.
I think you've misread my comment.
I don't care if someone carrying a black lives matter flag tells me they support the use of violence against fascists. That's fine.
It's when someone shows up and says that harm is the priority. I have no indication from this photo what OP stands for. And so I can't help but wonder. Did he show up because he opposes Nazis? Or because he was looking for someone to hurt, and discovered that they were a permitted target? If so, I don't really care what he does to Nazis, but I can't trust that person to advance justice at all. Does that make sense?
Also, again: OP should be careful. If someone like that comes up to you and starts asking if you want to go put your money where your mouth is... they could be setting you up.
Here at tolerance camp, intolerance will not be tolerated.
I'm just going to direct you to look at my other responses. The TLDR is that I never said that Nazi lives matter (they don't), I said OP is giving off some signs not to let this person into your trust circle too quickly.
or if they are just excited to have found an outlet that allows them to indulge violent desires without jeopardizing their social standing.
I get why people are dunking on this but for real, spend two seconds in a "pedophile hunter" community and tell me this isn't true.

Stunning and brave
Jesus.. With my dyslexia i read it completely wrong 💀
I saw you at the festival standing in front of the WBC wannabes, but the flag was not blowing so we didn't see the DON'T. the guy i was with was about to yell at you (for what little good that would do, in reality), but the wind blew and we saw the DON'T.
i like the cut of your jib, sir.
Thanks! Welcome to midwest.social! Believe it or not I run/maintain this site.
