Surely someone clipped it and it's in the internet somewhere.. I wanna see how awful it is

[–] Treczoks@lemmy.world 21 points 3 hours ago

So some commercial American social media still ban Nazis? How long will they be able to do that?

He really can't stop with that train, so sad...

Follow the cash. Find the Fasc. (see also Epstein flight logs)

How fucking hard is it to not give a Nazi salute?

Once the number on your bank account crosses a certain threshold your right arm practically lifts itself it seems

Billionaires are too busy giving salutes to do taxes

I'm guessing it's pretty hard when you're a has been and are desperate for any publicity.

[–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 34 points 10 hours ago* (last edited 5 hours ago)

It is not hard at all if you don't want to do it

Nazis make Nazi salutes

I'm really surprised he hasn't made an account on truth social, they love that shit over there.

[–] PenguinMage@lemmy.world 8 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

I'm pretty sure X is fine with it too.

[–] dumbass@leminal.space 4 points 5 hours ago (2 children)

X is where the Elon Nazis are, truth social is where the Maga Nazis are.

Kanye is a Maga Nazi.

[–] PenguinMage@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago

Six of one, half a dozen of the other? I'm sure the melting pot is similar enough sadly....

[–] boonhet@lemm.ee 2 points 4 hours ago

He wants to run for president though, lots of Maga nazis might have a problem with that.

Drugs in the 90s were responsible for great music and dead singers, drugs today won't work as fine

[–] boonhet@lemm.ee 8 points 4 hours ago

So the thing is he's actually off his meds according to a lot of people. Blame the lack of drugs instead of the drugs

From the article:

In February, Friends actor David Schwimmer called on Musk to ban Kanye West from X after he made a series of antisemitic posts.

Schwimmer called on Musk, the owner of X, to remove West from the platform. “This is so 2022,” said Schwimmer. “We can’t stop a deranged bigot from spewing hate-filled, ignorant bile… but we CAN stop giving him a megaphone, Mr Musk.”

Bold of Schwimmer to assume Musk in any way disagrees with Ye's views.

Elon is not just holding the megaphone, he's actively cranking up the volume dial.

I find it strange that David Schwimmer made a public plea for decency when it was about anti-semitism but not for any of the rest of the hateful shit projectile-blasted around that echo chamber.

[–] Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 5 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

He just wants to be in the news cycle again.

[–] boonhet@lemm.ee 5 points 3 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago)

He's also rich and Jewish, probably doesn't give a fuck about any injustice unless it's antisemitism.

That’s like a speed run time 🤣

Silly bunny... The social media platform of choice for Nazis is Twitter.

I don't understand how there can be black people in favor of Hitler. How do they rationalize praising someone who would have genocided them?

Mental illness isn't a skin color.

[–] kkj@lemmy.dbzer0.com 40 points 13 hours ago (6 children)

History lessons in the US focus on the Jewish victims of the Holocaust to the exclusion of all others. Plenty of people don't know that gay, trans, leftist, or non-white people were genocided.

[–] Tja@programming.dev 33 points 11 hours ago

Even white people. Slavs for instance. Anyone considered crippled. Political enemies.

[–] sin_free_for_00_days@sopuli.xyz 10 points 10 hours ago

My mom's uncle, white Norwegian, was put in a Nazi camp during WWII. History lesson.

The same reason poor people can be in favor of conservatives.
