      So let me get this straight, you want to commit mass murder, but you also don’t want to get hit? Idk, man, seems a little hypocritical.

        I always read it as a guy who saw war movies where people cower in fear of Nazi officers so he went outside expecting the same results.

      I had the misfortune of working with that guy before he went mask-off. weird fucking dude who couldn’t stop hitting on the women in the office

      Not that it justifies or excuses anything at all, but I definitely think there’s a pipeline from the, like, Joe Rogan / Andrew Tate segment of the toxic manosphere that leads down this path. There are probably opportunities to save some of these people before their craving for attention leads them to hate

    Nazis are about a popularity show of power to intimidate political enemies. You combat them by 1. Not being intimidated 2. Do whatever you can to show them their ideas are not popular and that they are out umbered 3. Don’t throw bricks. Throw milkshakes.

    Surviving brick attack: harrowing, heroic, convinces base they are political heroes defending ideas people desperately want to silence.

    Surviving milkshake attack: Humiliating, no way to spin it to make yourself looks like a serious defender of liberty. Shows that people aren’t so afraid of fascist ideas they’ll do anything to stop it, they just think fascists are blowhard assholes.

    Fascism and Nazism is all about projecting power against a treating political group. They want to see themselves as the white knights of serious, professional defense of an ideology. Tp defeat them, you have to suck the wind out of their sails by making them look silly and showing them that they’re just a bunch of angry nerds.

    It’s weird. They’re the minority, and yet they adore bullying those that are different. Maybe try standing in front of them with at least as many people…? They’re Nazis. They’ll turn around and go home…

    Lansky rounded up some of his tough associates and went around New York disrupting Nazi meetings. Young Jews not connected to him or the rackets also volunteered to help, and Lansky and others taught them how to use their fists and handle themselves in a fight. Lansky’s crews worked very professionally. Nazi arms, legs, and ribs were broken and skulls cracked, but no one died. The attacks continued for more than a year. And Lansky earned quite a reputation for doing this work.

    Chefs kiss.

    1. Talk to all your neighbors, have a block party, know eachother.

    2. Rip off their masks, take pictures of their face, make them famous on your social media.
