The whole graffiti a Swasticar/Nazicar thing seems to be generated by some Cambridge Analytica group busying people with fighting amongst each other to take the aggression out caused by the govt., rather than spending time on other more important things.

Can these sorts of posts be removed / discouraged for the fediverse?

EDIT: I expected this to be downvoted a lot because whatever bots of a paid-for group is promoting inner-class violence across the instances wouldn’t want the ideologies they’re promoting to be challenged now would they.

    I think what you’re seeing is people trying to get Americans angry enough to get beyond the coach potato acceptance of events that many are displaying. Get them to be what they always claimed to be… A country full of patriots that will fight for their country rather than see it destroyed from within.

    We can’t help you all from outside.

      Nonsense? How does graffiti’ing a car change things? How does ‘see a nazi, punch a nazi’ change things again?

              lol, good job your dog loves you because everyone else probably thinks you’re a c*nt!

              I’m English. It’s fun watching Americans throw dumb shit like your words at each other.

              But yeah, call me a “Nazi”, tell people what you think I think is actually what I think, because it’s funny. And tesla cyber trucks are not road-legal in the uk.

              I do detect a hint of jealously in your tone though.

                I think you’ll find everybody thinks you’re the cunt. Letting nazis and fascists do what they want is how things are going to shit to start with.

                  Now we’re getting somewhere!

                  Letting nazis and fascists do what they want

                  So people driving cybertrucks is somehow making things go to shit? Or is it actually the actions or the world’s richest man and his sidekick that has nothing to do with Mr Smith who drives a cybertruck?

          And driving a Tesla is spreading hate, how? And not even neo-nazis have a similar ‘See a Jew, Punch a Jew’, so by your ‘idea’, doesn’t that make non-Nazis more hate-filled and violent? And is there a criteria / test you need to apply to determine if someone is a Nazi before you “punch them” or do you think it’s ok and you can just punch / kill them because you suspect they’re a nazi?

          Do you see where this is headed? Or are you a good ickle puppet.

            By allowing their Nazi CEO to continue to be the CEO. The board could fire him at any point, but won’t. People driving rustbucket trucks bought after it was clear that he was supporting the far right.

            How does that make non-Nazi’s more violent? That makes no sense. Tolerance of Nazis will get you nowhere.

            Are you a swasticar owner?

            Violence is not inherently bad. The badness depends on the context. So “doesn’t that make them more-violent??” appeal is technically true, but that doesn’t mean it’s wrong.

            “Cutting someone open and taking out an organ” is pretty fucked up, unless it’s in a hospital and they’re removing an appendix so the patient doesn’t die.

            Punching someone in the face is usually bad, but if that person is planning to go on and do mass murder, it’s still in the black.

            How do you tell they’re a nazi? Well, sometimes they tell you. Sometimes they wear a clothes that signal it.

            Sometimes people act like “if you can’t write an algorithm to perfectly decide how to behave in all cases you’re wrong” and that’s just not how human behavior and decision making has ever been. People make judgement calls with incomplete information all the time, and that’s okay.

    I’m going to go out and say you are partaking this in a bad faith and dishonest manner. You can’t properly respond to people’s critique of your post.

      Please give an example? Because other than parroted lines thrown about like lemmings, there hasn’t been an intelligent argument made that violence against inanimate objects like tesla cars, inturn damaging the property of others, is a worthy and helpful thing to do.

    FWIW it’s a form of antagonism against Musk being an unelected President, and s with anything you need to beat that drum until people get it.

    You’re going to see propaganda from both sides trying to drown each other out.

    Polarising of two or more subservient groups is excellent for people in power. If you create the us-them narrative they’ll be so busy arguing amongst themselves, they’ll have no eye for the ones affecting their misery and changing it.

    Now I’m not saying everyone should take to the streets and fight the government immediately, but bashing in your neighbours’s skulls because they drive Teslas and/or voted for Trump is not productive at all. Rather find some middle ground with them and see how to survive the coming four years.

    Oh get a life. It’s downvoted because you’re being disingenous and can’t believe anyone would find that distasteful, you twit. Who would hire people to downvote stuff like this on lemmy of all places? We’ll do it for free, especially if you add edits like that.
