They looked like Nazis but I gave the benefit of the doubt. Then I noticed his bike.

Be nice. Assume others have good intent (within reason).

Moderator Guidelines
Moderator Guidelines
- Don’t be mean to users. Be gentle or neutral.
- Most moderator actions which have a modlog message should include your username.
- When in doubt about whether or not a user is problematic, send them a DM.
- Don’t waste time debating/arguing with problematic users.
- Assume the best, but don’t tolerate sealioning/just asking questions/concern trolling.
- Ask another mod to take over cases you struggle with, if you get tired, or when things get personal.
- Ask the other mods for advice when things get complicated.
- Share everything you do in the mod matrix, both so several mods aren't unknowingly handling the same issues, but also so you can receive feedback on what you intend to do.
- Don't rush mod actions. If a case doesn't need to be handled right away, consider taking a short break before getting to it. This is to say, cool down and make room for feedback.
- Don’t perform too much moderation in the comments, except if you want a verdict to be public or to ask people to dial a convo down/stop. Single comment warnings are okay.
- Send users concise DMs about verdicts about them, such as bans etc, except in cases where it is clear we don’t want them at all, such as obvious transphobes. No need to notify someone they haven’t been banned of course.
- Explain to a user why their behavior is problematic and how it is distressing others rather than engage with whatever they are saying. Ask them to avoid this in the future and send them packing if they do not comply.
- First warn users, then temp ban them, then finally perma ban them when they break the rules or act inappropriately. Skip steps if necessary.
- Use neutral statements like “this statement can be considered transphobic” rather than “you are being transphobic”.
- No large decisions or actions without community input (polls or meta posts f.ex.).
- Large internal decisions (such as ousting a mod) might require a vote, needing more than 50% of the votes to pass. Also consider asking the community for feedback.
- Remember you are a voluntary moderator. You don’t get paid. Take a break when you need one. Perhaps ask another moderator to step in if necessary.

It wouldn't surprise me.
What the fuck is this even a picture of? A space marine pauldron?
A motorcycle. I don't know exactly what make and model, but I would guess to be something Suzuki, but you're looking at the front of the bike, with the light at the bottom, and the SS is stuck behind the wind deflector, or "windshield" as some might refer to it as. Picture might help give an idea.
Wild guess but I’m thinking Suzuki GSXR. They also have a bad rep in the motorcycle community due to the people that have bought them.
One of my brother’s friends bought one back in high school and within a couple weeks he was medevac’d from a major freeway by helicopter
It’s something about the reputation. All of those super sport bikes are insanely powerful but it always seems like the worst people to own them are riding GSXRs (we called them Gixxers). I used to race (on a track) and we would see racers come in with second hand GSXRs that had been repaired from accidents, totaled, sold by insurance, and turned into track bikes.
In high school?! Shit… Good thing we have a more sane system in Germany about bikes specifically. You can't just legally drive a high-performing bike when you're young, you have to work your way up from AM (45kmh, 4kw, 50cm³, as early as age 15), then A1 (11kw, 125cm³, 16 years old), A2 (35kw, 18 years old) to A (unlimited, 20 years old if you got A2 for at least 2 years). Only if you're age 24 or older you can go directly to A as it's assumed you're adult enough, and well, freedom and all.
Still, too many people drive superbikes on the Autobahn like they're living in GTA… but at least not out of youthful ignorance, but simply stupidity.
Huh, that’s a super interesting system. If you’re 18 can you also directly go to A2 or is it all gradual from one to the next?
Yeah, when you're 18 you can go directly to A2 and after 2 years do the unlimited A license. Or directly A1 when 16, only the unlimited A license got this 2 year time limit if you're too young so seasoned young drivers don't need to wait all the way until they're 24 if they already got experience with handling bikes and a feeling for the dangers of high speed (at least that's the hope).
AM, A1 and A2 also got a special paragraph for trikes since they're heavier, so it takes a tiny bit more engine power to achieve the same acceleration and max speed.
9-13 Yamaha FZ7. Seriously fun bikes.
Read the caption brotha
It doesn't look like a bike to me, it looks like something underwater but also dry somehow.
Looks like the front of a bike to me, admittedly a weirdly shaped and pretty roughed up bike but still pretty definitively bike looking.
I'm confused by what it's on.
Did they spray paint some SSes and just kept the newspaper they painted it on?
It almost looks like some form of temporary registration, shoved up under the plastic. The one bit of semi-legible writing doesn't look like english though.
That's fair. I think it's the front of the bike.
Oh dang lol. I totally missed that last sentence
Headlight and bottom of the windshield
Can you dox them or just otherwise fuck their shit up with this information? (Not here because I don't know how identifiable you are but just anywhere.) Sucks that you have to live next to these people 😣
This is 2025 America. The fact that they are comfortable enough to put it dead center on their bike speaks volumes about how little worry they have about being outed as a nazi.
Yeah you're right and that's fucking bleak. Still, I'm sure there are some people in your boat who aren't okay with having a Nazi living next door, working for them, etc.
They'd be doxxing themself as well if they did this
Maybe? Maybe not? If this SS bolt is on the person's motorcycle, it could plausibly be seen by dozens of members of the public. In any case, I did mention not to do it with this account for this exact reason.
Put up some nice decorations in the area
Why not smear cow poop over it? (Use throwaway gloves while doing so, and burn them after).
Cow and horse poops aren't actually a good choice - sure, you can get them in a large quantity, but they're mostly fiber, so they dissolve in water very easily and are too easy to wash off.
You want poop with lots of fat in it, so something from an animal that eats meat. I'm biased, but in my opinion snake poop would be a superb choice, if you can get your hands on some. It's dense, hard to wash off and smells like actual death - so even a small, well placed piece would already be very effective.
that's a good idea, but where do i get cow poop and not get filmed by any cameras
As an aside, how is it legal to install spiked bolt caps on the front of your motorbike fairing?
If they collide with anyone - even at low speed - a standard bolt cap compared with a spiked one could mean the difference between a minor injury and serious injury/death.
The reason it's legal? Because it's not illegal.
ha ha
But seriously, the chances are so low that it was likely never considered. Politicians have to pass a law to make something like that illegal, and what politician is even going to think about this, much less bring it up for a vote?
Probably USA, so "freedom".
Most of the time they are lightweight plastic shells and will crumple before causing any extra damage.
Mix some grease with small ball bearings rolled around in sulphuric acid, the acid should make the bearings dark enough to take them out if they ride at night.
Where do you put the ball bearings?
Nah, bro, it's a Super Sport! /s
Hard to ride with slashed tires.
Don't slash. They can get you for destruction of property. Get a set of tire valve stem core remover tools and just unscrew the stem core without taking it out. Constant tire pressure loss. They'll likely replace the tires and you can do it again. So much more nazi time wasted than slashing the tires.
You have a civic duty to get them out of there.
Light it on fire
I saw a biker with this tattoo at a stoplight. Wtf is wrong with people.
