Nazis should be dead. Punching is the compromise

The left: Maybe we have to do violence?

Liberals: How dare you!

Nazis: We already did some violence, it was awesome. We're going to hint at doing more every way we can think of, but stop short of explicitly and unconditionally promising to

Liberals: Well they already did it, so let's put it behind us.

Yep. I picked up 2 temp bans, a sub permanent ban, and then a total ban after 16 years once Reddit went public. All of that in two months. I haven’t changed but the world sure did. One of them was me showing the medical gear you should carry to attend the first No Kings rally. I was “inciting violence” and got banned from my cities /r

Better here anyways. I just needed a push.

My very first suspension was agreeing that it is always okay to punch a Nazi. That's how I first found out that there is some controversy about intolerance of Nazis.

Reddit is a shithole

Unfortunately Reddit is run by group that prefers the nazis to be rampant on their website, despite what they say in their TOA and so on.

If you see a nazi sitting down and having breakfast with 11 people, you're seeing 12 nazis.

Violence against fascists is defense of humanity

Welcome to the club. I said, "Remember, if you see a Nazi, punch a Nazi.", as a play on if you see something, say something.

I decided not being able to comment or post is not a big loss, but I do still read over there.

Reddit's AI banbots are basically killing the platform leaving nothing but scrapbooking and macrame subs.

I mean, my grandfather would probably have said they deserved worse.

You deserve it by grossly understating what Nazis deserve. /s

first time?

reddit finally decided to shadowban me

Funny, a world mod banned me from a comminity for the exact same reason.

Reddit moment

yeah, last few years has been like that. can't say shit anymore.

lol yeah that was also one of my three strikes for getting perma’d from The Old Place

I mean, it is. A punch is a violent action.

And reddit has never ever been shy about enforcing sitewide rules inconsistently. I have no idea why people act all shocked and offended by this shit, it's why there's so damn many reddit clones and has been happening for over a fucking decade.

Beyond that, please for the love of all that is good, SHUT THE FUCK UP ONLINE. Go get involved with your local groups and stop incriminating yourself.

Go read up on proper goddamn opsec. Regularly shuffle your online identities and the identifying info connected to them. Learn where the tracking cameras are in your area and routes to avoid them. Ways to spot and shake tails. Ways to discretely shift your appearance so you don't get picked up wearing the same fucking coat. The tactics that feds and pigs use against resistance movements, how to spot them. How to do first aid and care for allies. Learn your local allies so you recognize newcomers (and potential infiltration).

And stop doing this performative "I'm so tough/hard" shit online. Save the effort for real fucking action. Go do it, and do it in a way that you won't be the first obvious fucking suspect.

As for me? This online identity is already burned, and my risk profile is not the same as yours, oh valiant nazi puncher. Let those fists swing, but make sure they don't see it coming.

I got banned from news@lemmy.world for calling out nazi sympathizers. Granted I did call them cunts, so YMMV.
