On the punching of Nazis
I’m sure we’ve all seen the gif/video snippet of a guy wearing a swastika being punched clean out. Here is my statement on this:
- People should be free to express their opinions without fear of restriction of their freedom by the government – this is the guarantee of freedom of speech.
- When said opinion is that entire groups people are inherently inferior and should be wiped off the face of the planet through organised violence, don’t be surprised when someone punches you out.
- Just because you can do something legally, doesn’t mean it’s a good idea.
- Seriously, fuck Nazis.
- Stop telling us that we need to tolerate their bullshit, they want to erase people like me from existence and telling me that I need to ‘respect their opinion and be less angry’ tells me you don’t actually give a shit about anyone other than yourself, and just want to live a quiet life of ignorance.
- FUCK NAZIS.
