    I don’t know why people instantly call me Nazis for having different opinions than them. Like sure I don’t care but this will lower the weight of the word, like Lemmings and members of the extended Fediverse have been doing for the better part of 2 years.

    Support Luigi or not, or call me literally Hitler, I could not give less of a shit. The double standard is absolutely real and contributes to making the Fediverse even more of an echo chamber than it already is. When you call people genociders and incels for not conforming to the majority, you heavily alienate them. I have been saying this for months.

    Since you guys only think in absolutes, a shitty meme is realistically the only way to get you guys to truly speak. And the only good response any of you can come up with is to shout “Nazi” until I give up? Come on guys.

    And believe me, I think both of these murderers are pieces of shit. They have both heavily damaged both of their respective political frameworks, creating heavy fighting that obscures the entire landscape.

    Continue doing this, and you will ostracize everyone who hasn’t drank the Kool Aid. You will see legitimate, actual Nazis (yes, I’m using the term correctly and not as just a prejorative) scooping up support. So because of that, and because of the overarching period of doom that is coming, I will always be against this hivemind type of thinking. If you think I’m a Nazi because of that, then so be it. I never liked any of you anyway.

      I’m not going to take the bait and call you a nazi or anything, but I will point out that Luigi didn’t kill a politician or do so for political gain. He allegedly killed a CEO in the hope that it would strike fear in others in a similar position, bringing about the reform of exploitative insurance practices.
