    This is just Nazi rhetoric. Stupid rhetoric, but pretty clearly Nazi stuff.

    I’m sure somewhere an idiot decided they were going to create a satirical Nazi meme, but I guess every day another fool must learn why that isn’t viable. No context, no satire. There is no reason why this couldn’t be made in earnest by one of the 15-year-old white boys that they recruit.

    Yeah, it doesn’t matter if it says “shitpost” at the top of the page. That tells me nothing. That is not context.

    This isn’t our first day on the job, the Nazis like to leak their bullshit wherever they can to see if it will float. This place is a good place to make an attempt. I would quite reasonably assume that this is one of those attempts. Maybe they get shut down, or maybe they find fertile ground, they are always testing. Perhaps this is your first day online, though, perhaps you don’t know better.

    Hiding behind “it’s a joke” is also classic fascist nonsense. It’s a joke unless you take it seriously, then it’s not a joke, let us speak more seriously, that’s how the fascists work, and that’s why we bring the hammer down on this shit. They’re always fishing, and always hiding behind plausible deniability until they get enough power that they don’t need to hide.

    The men in the meme may seem to make this an obvious joke, but they look cool to young boys, so they would be used knowing that most children would be ignorant of them. Nobody under 18 is likely to know what Patrick Bateman is about, that movie is from forever ago, never mind the book. He just looks like Bruce Wayne to them.

    Teenage boys have a nasty tendency to fancy themselves unstoppable psychopaths, they crave power because they have none. It doesn’t matter if they know about Patrick, they think he’s hard and cool and powerful and rich and gets bitches when it pleases him, just like the teenage boy dreams of. He is a child. Nazis know this. This is not their first day on the job.

    I would quite reasonably assume this is Nazi propaganda. It’s inept, but fascists are stupid, so that tells me nothing.

    Why yes I do know what a joke is. You failed. Try again. It was always your job to land your attempt, and not my job to laugh.

    However your post was shit, so I suppose congratulations for that.
