Oh no.. Your actions have consequences. Suck it up, snowflake.
Over 30k in donations so far.
What consequences? Some other Nazi will give him a job pretty quickly.
I remember when idiots would walk outside and shout their idiocy to the world and we’d say, “GO BACK IN YOUR FUCKING HOUSE HAROLD! You’re embarrassing the entire neighborhood!”
He’d sulk back into his living room and cuss, but he’d realize he was alone in his idiocy and he’d shut the fuck up.
Nowadays, Nazi Harold goes back in and find 50,000 other idiots to validate his idiocy online and reinforce his asinine beliefs.
We live in a time when absurdity is a click away from being totally normal.
That is fucking dangerous, but what do you do?
He’ll be selling supplements for Heil Healthier in a few days.
It Raised 32000 and the highest donation is 2000. The people worse than this freak are the anonymous donations that want to support it.
Better they give it to this nobody than to Trump.
Nobody today, Republican senator tomorrow.
Entirely possible, but still better than Trump.
Yeah sure am glad this freak got more money than I make in a year explicitly because of the fact that he's a hateful freak.
It they're going to throw their money at a hateful freak anyway, better a less powerful one.
Sometimes I wonder how rich and powerful I could be if I just discarded my morals and started saying whatever I needed to in order to gain power. I mean, it can't be particularly difficult, assuming you could find a way to sleep at night. Trump did it, and he's on the intellectual level of maybe... A small but vicious dog? but a dog with some sort of device that generates racist and sexist tweets via Markov chain.
One of the most maddening parts of modern life under capitalism is that when you are young you are taught things like
- share with others
- don't be selfish
- don't take advantage of others
- treat others how you wish to be treated
Then you get into the “real world” and capitalism goes
- be selfish
- exploit people for profit
- take as much advantage of the market as possible
And you are just supposed to go “ok makes sense”
Child: Be the Federation
Adult: Be the Ferengi
I think those rules are set down by the wealthy, to benefit the wealthy. The rules themselves are good in concept, but the ones who back them are selective about when and to whom they apply.
Being able to recognize exploitation and to call it out, is an unwritten rule that should be added to the lessons.
Early lesson in "We're All Fucked, Okay?" 🤣
You're forgetting that he was already rich. You'd have a higher chance but there are plenty of people that step on the competition already to get nowhere. The business world is littered with them.
Almost every company I've ever worked for was full of power craving idiots like you're describing. Most of the meetings that immisserate my daily work life are between petty tyrants that spend 90% of their time building little fiefdoms and looking for a grand pat on the back for their meager accomplishments.
I didn't forget it, I excluded it so I could day dream lol
Rife or infested might be a better term. Litter isn't parasitic.
You forget that doing this would distance yourself from your entire social circle (or the other way around), to be replaced with people just like you describe. And you can't get to the upper-echelons of power by yourself - these jackals make sure of it. Yeah, maybe there's one other sheep in wolf's clothing in the mix, but the rest? Probably not who you want to pal around with.
Yeah well, add that to the list of reasons why I haven't tried. I like my social circle. My parents and siblings would probably be behind me if I did, but their judgement is suspect, since they all supported Trump.
Oh well that was a fun video to watch. When he walked in the building the total IQ the room in no way changed did it, he has absolutely no idea what he's supporting. He claims to support human dignity and to be against the murder of Innocents (which should be the default position of everyone) yet says he's happy to be called a Nazi. I assume history books are a bit hard and too full of long phrases like "overwhelming photographic evidence" and "independently verified".
It's funny how self described fascists and autocrats immediately turn to socialism when they're in need...
Well it's only socialism when you give money to brown people.
That's essentially what these people's beliefs essentially boil down to. They don't actually know what socialism is, not really. They're just trying to justify racism.
Yep that's part of why the Nazis called it national socialism. Socialism, but only for the Nazi nation (i.e. white, straight, non-jewish people).
Well it’s only socialism when you give money to brown people.
You left out unwed mothers, people with disabilities, and anyone else who isn't a racist, fascist, or otherwise piece of shit. It's only socialism when society deems you to be deserving of help. When you're just an asshole, it's crowdfunding against the woke mind virus.
It's a subtle difference that these cretins couldn't possibly comprehend because there is no distinction (that it's actually socialism) because they're as dumb as a rock. But try explaining that to them and watch them sputter about cancel culture.
I will gladly donate a punch to this piece of fascist excrement’s throat. Who’s with me?
Wash your hands after, dear.
He's gotten $32,000 so far. Being an outspoken POS has to be one of the highest earning jobs in America. The last one got a million for calling a child the N-word
Being an outspoken POS has to be one of the highest earning jobs in America
Which proves that left-wing violence isn't a problem in America. If outspoken right wingers got routinely assaulted, that money would not seem so appealing.
Wait. One can get paid for assaulting Nazis? I missed that notice. 😅✊🏼
It pays to not have morals. Hell it pays a lot to be narcissistic, just look at almost all the CEOs.
I watched this yesterday and noticed a few things, Mehdi is so sharp and quick witted and wow right wingers are so open with their insane racist ideas. The part with this guy was crazy.
We need a white nation! It’s our only future! Vive le Fascisme,” one donor wrote while contributing $88.
Yikes.
Another racist grifter fleecing the gullible MAGA cult.
No problem. Just pull yourself up by your bootstraps.
Two in the thoughts, one in the prayers.
