      You know what I find funny? These people go into the obtuse game often whenever they can, when it’s something the other party wants clarified, however, when it’s something against them, they cease the obtuse olympics and are just direct cause they don’t play that game against themselves, for example when Kirk was ventilated; people would post his quote about being against empathy and innocently say “What? We’re just agreeing with him; these were his opinions weren’t they?” but chuds didn’t play along and just openly threatened them over this; they didn’t actually engage with what people were saying and just went straight to threats and insults.

      These people are like the news; they’ll play ridiculously ignorant when it benefits them, but when it’s something that’s against them they’ll suddenly turn into the most aware and awake people on the planet.

      (I say they’re like the news because the news will dance around things like the Gaza genocide but when it comes to Russia’s war with Ukraine, they’ll actually call it a war; I’m reminded of a journalist who spoke with a Russian politician who referred to the war as a military operation and she kept insisting ‘it’s a war’ and refusing to let him continue to call it a military operation; these people are as ignorant as someone literally born yesterday when it benefits them, but are as aware and awake as normal when it doesn’t)

    Buddhists, Hindus, and some Native American tribes, and maybe others have all used swastikas. Only Nazis use it at the 45° angle like on that flag. Teach is a fucking Nazi.

    If I wanted to be really fair I’d say maybe those flags are WW2 trophies. My great-grandfather had a captured imperial Japanese flag for instance that he displayed because I guess he was proud of capturing it.

    It feels like a stretch though

      the design shown here has not been used by the nazis and the way thd fabric looks shows that these flags were manufactured quite recently.

    I’m honestly surprised Nazis haven’t just started using the Hindu or Buddhist depictions of the swastika or sauvastika so they can hide behind its history pre-nazi appropriation. They’re either too dumb to think of it, or too shameless/committed to being a fascist that it would be unthinkable.
