Twitter made the Jewish lady that posted this delete it for “threatening violence.”
Her followers spent the rest of the day tweeting this. Trolls couldn’t keep up.
Coming from someone who studies the Holocaust and the history surrounding it, It is important to remember that Nazis were human, not monsters.
It’s important because if we dehumanize them we create a level of separation between us and them. It’s important because if we create that level of removal, we start ignoring the subtle signs of antisemitism because “Oh, well they’re just a normal human, not a monster, i’m sure it’ll be alright.” It’s important because when we create that level of removal, they come back in waves. It’s important because when you create that level of separation, you get the problems that we have now.
Shooting nazis isn’t a crime, it’s self defense. Every single one of them is an active existential threat to every single person who’s not one of them.

Saying “there’ll always be” is a bourgeois notion. Capital wants us to think that. But everything moves. Everything is subject to change. Nothing lasts. All Social relations–slavery, serfdom, salaried work–are historical and transient. The truth is, current conditions must change. The bourgeois is still free to hire labour, the worker still forced to sell it. The bourgeois loves talking of liberty but that liberty is for him, not for you, as you know.
This blog is mostly so I can vent my feelings and share my interests. Other than that, I am nothing special.
If you don't like Left Wing political thought and philosophy, all things related to horror, the supernatural, the grotesque, guns or the strange, then get the fuck out. I just warned you.
