If you are in the same room as a Nazi and you are not punching the Nazi there are two Nazis in the room.

Now that I know the context, the kid is a hero. Us Lemmy people are proud of you.

I would like to officially nominate that kid for office of the President of the USA 2028.
Not sure the country could handle such a large swing upwards in qualifications.
Cinema
Any word on what happened to this kid?
Are they arresting kids or just suspension or am I just showing my age?
I'm not yet sure what happened to the kid that punched the fascist.
However, the fascist was apparently banned from Instagram for pulling fire alarms
I hope he's doing alright
Reminds me of this photograph.
The mother of the woman was imprisoned in a concentration camp by the nazis. The guy later killed a Jew.
The nazi be like: i was just peacefully spreading hate and was unlawfully attacked by violent antifa!
I love this
I'm glad this is on Lemmy.
Reddit would put you on a list, send it to DHS, and give you a 3 day ban...just for up-voting.
Why are you talking about reddit? Fuck reddit. What a shitty place to be.
That's what motivated me to make an account here. Reddit are fascist sympathizers.
Welcome!
Me too. Right now I'm in the middle of a 3 day ban for saying that any country that needs genocide to exist, should not exist.
I don't feel like going back after that one
Just like all big-tech
I often wonder if DHS is aware of the threadiverse. I would assume so but who knows? At least I don't think our admins would cooperate with them for the most part.
US law enforcement subpoenas data centers and servers often. For a physical server, the FBI will leave a windows sever running and gain access, if it is a Linux sever however, they will to confiscate the server. I'm not sure what they do for cloud hosted servers.
All the more reason to be on a non-US based server right now.
Worth noting that a lot of their subpoenas are BS though and could be fought successfully. Big tech is too scared to do even minor things to protect their users because the regime will retaliate in other ways that could cost them money. Small hobby servers don't have the same avenue of attack, although they might be more vulnerable in other ways.
This punk band agrees (and so do I).

That was sick
He's going to hang this on his dorm room wall.
I hope he gets a statue.
You and I will have to make him one, in this world... The fascists are in charge right now.
WTF are all US schools like that? With all that security it looks like it was filmed in an airport
Well, if it weren't for the school shootings, I wouldn't know if the U.S. still had schools.
It was right at the main door, and they had a active student protest in that entrance space that was being policed for everyone's security. So the reg security and a couple cops and staff were literally right there to get involved.
How would you have a robust school to prison pipeline if you don't have plenty of cops at the schools?
Because we have school shootings all the damn time. It still won't stop them from happening but it's not like we're gonna go after the source of the problem and ban guns anytime soon. Security theater is the best thing administrations can do and the kids are those who end up suffering the most out of it.
Cops at schools often escalate problems and use excessive force on children.
