dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

Holy shit he-admit-it , I assume the comments are all just

"UHm akshully fascism is a COMMUNIST ideology, mr crowder smuglord "

It's mostly libs doing the "this is a real mask-off moment" thing and chuds going "yah, based" and doing Hitler apologia and reds killed trillions

He stole Kirk's old gimmick, so maybe he'll steal his new one.

So true bestie, and look there's a big sign on the wall behind you agreeing with you!

Yeah... just turn around... towards the wall... how-compelling

For these ilk:

I say gulag, you say mineshaft

Is that Mel Brooks from The Producers on the right?

[–] purpleworm@hexbear.net 9 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I apologize if you're being facetious, but that's Pinochet, one of several fascists he specifically defends in the video.

I guess chuds will be lulzing over "free helicopter rides" memes again. I honestly wasn't sure who it was, looked similar to some pics of old Franco, but putting him twice seemed a bit odd.

They can't use any of the more well known Fascists, because even they aren't so braindead to think that openly saying "Hitler was right actually" would endear anyone to their cause. So they use more "Obscure" (for Americans at least) Fascist dictators, which means they can just lie about Fascism more easily since their audience will know nothing about Chile under Pinochet.

i've seen the words "pinocet did nothing wrong" out there a year ago

[–] Damarcusart@hexbear.net 6 points 1 week ago

Yeah, Pinochet is a great dogwhistle for them, because a liberal will read a phrase like "Pinochet's helicopter tours" and think nothing of it, so Fascist can slowly normalise their fucked up worldview. Which is why Pinochet is so important to them, not because he actually "accomplished" anything, even by Fascist standards, but only because he works as the ideal "foot in the door" to normalise Fascism amongst ignorant westerners.

Libertarians tend to shut the fuck up when you point out the children of those killed via "helicopter rides" ended up in the hands of literal SS who escaped Germany to continue doing nazi shit in Chile.

It feels like they would have put Hitler's image in the video if possible, if it weren't for the backlash
