    I lean right

    wearing a pin of the Waffen-SS

    You don’t lean right. But if you had anything more than a rotten egg sandwich in your head you wouldn’t wear that pin in the first place. So any attempt in explaining is futile.

      Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.

      That’s like saying demons don’t know the Latin phrases that exorcise them. Of course they know the words that cause their vile little souls pain!

      “Stop shaming me, let me live!” is something I either see textually or paraphrased in many of my interactions here… It isn’t everything, evidently far from it, but I think this sentiment has a little bit of responsibility behind these larger issues.

    “I’m fed up with being discriminated against for discriminating against others.”

    Gotta love the delusion.

    Subtext: “I heard about this incel stuff and I think they’re onto something: people - esp. women - just hate normal white guys.”

    normal: just “leaning” right… 💀

    (and hot damn, I wonder what these “certain things” are)

    Sounds like what he just described is his entire personality.

    Except for probably fetishizing old geriatric pedos, racism, bigotry, misogyny, and for losing wars…

      How the fuck are people going about espousing an ideology all about rule of the strong that got crushed by the forces of democracy?

        Just incredible. I think these people are too stupid to understand how stupid they are.

        In his interview with HuffPost, Fears tried to distance himself a little from the scene around him. He said of Richard Spencer, “I agree with like 75 percent of his ― he’s not ― he’s kind of a scam artist, in my opinion.” Asked if he identified as alt-right, he said: “I try and deny identity politics. That’s why I’m not wearing a white polo and all that stuff.” But he also served up a word salad of white grievance: “Like, OK, for one thing, say, you know, gay marriage, that’s cool, whatever, you know, except — that’s fine, I’m cool with it — well, then, what’s after that? The next step? This whole transgender movement, right? Well, if you don’t accept that, you’re a bigot, this and that. Well, that all goes hand in hand with being a white person.”

        Asked about the pin he was wearing during the interview, Fears said “it’s basically just like an SS thing.” Explaining the significance of the pin would require an extensive conversation about World War II, he said. “And it’s my heritage, I’m German.”

          Love how he tries to defend his racism with his ‘heritage’ as if that were the only thing Germans are known for

            Man could have chosen to be inspired to be a poet or scientist, some great thinker, instead he’s just a Nazi shithead.

            I was gonna mention Falco, but he’s Austrian… Are the cultural differences large enough that he cannot but counted as part of the “Germanic folk”? There’s at least one famous Austrian widely considered German, lol.
