Nick will not live to see 40. Someone will squish him before then.

I don’t particularly care for Hunter Biden, even though I do think it’s bullshit he was targeted by Trump because of a grudge against Joe, but I would’ve loved to see him beat the piss out of this little fetid asshole. But the again I’d pay to see anyone beat the shit out of Fuentes

[-] deft@lemmy.wtf 5 points 16 hours ago

I have a theory that's Fuentes' kink

[-] luciferofastora@feddit.org 4 points 14 hours ago

I'd happily indulge him

There should be a gofund me type service that’s totally anonymous where you can just donate to pay for people to get knocked the fuck out. Like a dark web vigilante gofundme service

I mean I feel like Joe Biden started his bid for president playing peekaboo in the Whitehouse during the second Obama presidency. If Hunter wants to start his by kicking the shit out of a Nazi wannabe then I mean...

You don't sit down to "interview" or "debate" fascists, not unless it's an excuse to get within brick to the skull distance of them.

I can see the value of debating fascist, as long as you're not trying to debate in good faith. If a fascist invites you to sit down for a televised debate, it's an opportunity to practice hostile, belittling techniques. Don't try to use logic, feel free to cut loose and shower them with emotional degradation and every fallacy you can think of. Steamroll them, laugh in their face, liberally use terms like "boot-licking cuck boy". It's pretty fun honestly, especially if you're the type of person who always avoids disingenuous debate tactics.

Fascism relies on posturing, looking like the strong man against the weak enemy. Making a fascist look meek and pathetic is the most effective tool if you're trying to crush their influence. No one wants to follow a fascist that looks like a floundering loser.

This can easily backfire, though. The fascist will rarely start the debate by glorifying the Third Reich. Instead, he will start off by lamenting the state of the working class, or complain about foreign policy, and only progressively reveal his true agenda. Showing contempt for him at this stage could be interpreted as contempt for these issues.

What the fascist attempts to do in these debates is to acquire legitimacy, since their political position sits outside the overton window. Using logical fallacies against him is to basically hand him that legitimacy for free by making him appear "reasonable". The easiest solution to all this is not to debate them at all.

Showing contempt for him at this stage could be interpreted as contempt for these issues.

Eh, that seems equivalent to saying gardening can backfire because you could stab yourself in the foot with a pitchfork or something. You can show contempt for their solutions while acknowledging the problems. Obviously, if you suck at rhetoric you shouldn't get into debates in the first place.

Using logical fallacies against him is to basically hand him that legitimacy for free by making him appear "reasonable".

The sort of people who are swayed by fascist rhetoric aren't the sort that have a keen eye for reasonableness and logical fallacy. It's an emotional stance based on posturing. Weakness is a far greater sin to the fascist than irrationality.

The easiest solution to all this is not to debate them at all.

That's not a solution at all. If no one pushes back on their messaging, they get implicit control of the narrative. That's a lot harder to do when their audience tunes in to watch their idol own the libs, but then see him get dog walked.

hunter biden's cock, alone, can beat the shit out of fuentes

[-] NM_Gringo@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

You might be threatening Fuentes with a good time there.

[-] florencia@lemmy.blahaj.zone 16 points 1 day ago

We'd never stop seeing screenshots of it in congress.

[-] sportsjorts@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 day ago

I would watch way more c-span if it were HB’s cock belting out a good old slobber knocker on Fuentes everyday.

I wish she would just put out 15min shitpost videos again, rather than 3-6hour long depressing feature films once every couple years.

[-] artyom@piefed.social 1 points 1 day ago

Good to know Channel 5 has stopped uploading podcasts...

[-] mysticpickle@lemmy.ca 13 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Why are we paying attention to either of these attention seeking fuck ups again?

[-] Fishnoodle@lemmy.world 15 points 1 day ago

Nick fuentes needed his body guards to step in

[-] cranakis@reddthat.com 12 points 1 day ago

I can't think of two opinions I care less about.

[-] florencia@lemmy.blahaj.zone 35 points 1 day ago

Trump and Musk?

[-] Melvin_Ferd@lemmy.world -3 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Cool. How much of the world is based of your opinion vs theirs.

Maybe you need to start caring

[-] cranakis@reddthat.com 7 points 1 day ago

Lol. We're all fucked if listening to Hunter Biden and Nick Fuentes is the answer to anything other than 'who is the bigger scumbag?'

[-] Melvin_Ferd@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Do you think we're not fucked?

This is the world now. It's engagement.

[-] melsaskca@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 day ago

Some are fucked, some aren't. The world is the same as it always was. It's the internet superhighway that's got you all fucked up, not people on the street.

[-] Melvin_Ferd@lemmy.world 2 points 16 hours ago

They're the same people. It's insane the left has this moral blindfold you all put on 20 years ago and never took off. The internet and these digital spaces are super important to shaping the real world. Stop pretending like they're separate. They all feed into each other. This isn't digg days. Everybody is online and super addicted

[-] methanemoose@lemmus.org 3 points 1 day ago

Is the ufc ring still up at the white house? I think we can get a celebrity death match like event at the white house? Of coarse claymation.

[-] noxypaws@pawb.social 2 points 1 day ago
