Somebody was banned for posting the GIF of the Nazi Guy getting knocked out (you know the one).

The community is not having it.

    Every time I walk past that stretch near Pike and 3rd in Seattle, right over that bit of concrete where the nazi got laid the fuck out, I punch the air. Every time.

    This story just gets better.

    Someone needs to make a monument, like that woman hitting the nazi with her purse. Maybe, until then, some graffiti to make the location to people passing by? Or maybe some other cheap temporary display.

    Imgurians are an odd bunch but I'm glad they're anti Nazi.

    Yeah, best politics of any centralised social media by a long shot.

    I know it is, technically. I just never group Imgur into social media. Its always been just an image host in my mind.

    When I last used Imgur about ten years ago, they communicated exclusively in gifs and meme phrases. It's a bit odd.

    But, when those browsing /new on Imgur had a mini-uprising and upvoted just anything for a day, weirdest and most outlandish stuff actually made it to the front page. That was the most fun I've ever had on a social-media site.

    It just amazes me how to doing the Nazi salute, uniforms and speech’s are entirely okay now. However, being against it gets you banned.

    The world has gone a full circle and we are back to the days were fascism, hatred and all that is okay. Unfortunately.
