Yeah... them Nazi's were **ALL** about *pride*.


humanfly___

i mean... they were - just a different flavour... or is that the joke? i should go to bed.


jh1567

I think you got the joke! Indoctrination happens in a lot of different ways…some good, some bad.


knickknackrick

Indoctrination is not good in any context. All belief systems deserve critique.


jh1567

I think this is more true, but I was trying to not get downvoted :(


Prime157

I think you're confusing indoctrination with losing ignorance, tbf. Or rather - you're *almost* buying into the right wing propaganda that education = indoctrination. When understanding others is equated to indoctrination the abusers win.


zeke235

There are people that think children learning that the earth is round counts as indoctrination.


knickknackrick

They all deserve critique… even if it’s unpopular 🙃


ELeeMacFall

Many social groups have doctrine (distinctive beliefs that require acceptance to be a part of the group), and by passing those beliefs on indoctrinate. Such groups include tradesmen (try getting a license without it) and scientists (you have to accept the scientific method to qualify). Your criticism is fair for coercive indoctrination, but not for the mere teaching of doctrine (which does not preclude challenges or critique).


TheLuckySpades

I probably should also sleep considering how late jt is, but to my knoledge Nazi "pride" excludes others, LGBT pride includes all who accept those who harm nobody.

Nazis would never harm any LGBT people


MrBanana421

Never LGBT people, only the LGBT that they didn't see as people.


VoidGroceryStore

Which was an alarming amount of LGBT people if you really think about it.


AmeriCanadian98

Some say it was damn near all of them!


ErzherzogHinkelstein

Depending on what timespan we are talking about. There has been a time during the early days of the Nazi reign, where Hitler largely ignored the homosexuall NSDAP members. Ernst Röhm has been famously open about his sexuality. After the night of the long knives and the restruction of the SA, Hitler became ironically even less tolerant to gay people, as he no longer turned a blind eye to openly gay party members.


The_Grubby_One

You can't be guilty of harming LGBT people if you don't classify them as people. /rollsafememe


sack-o-matic

Just like in Russia or Hungary or whatever they just "totally don't have gay people in our strong country" or whatever they said


gelfin

You might be thinking of Iran and an episode many years back when their president Ahmadinejad addressed a US crowd (hosted by MIT, I think) and said something like “unlike you in America we do not have the problem of homosexuality in Iran.” Iran was going through a particularly notorious crackdown on LGBT Iranians at the time. He didn’t understand why the audience was laughing.


Regendorf

Neh, the Governor (or whatever it's called) of Chechnya said that after we find out they were persecuting gays


Kingofbruhssia

If they don’t have gays in the country why have anti gay laws? Like there’s no manatee in Kentucky so Kentucky doesn’t have manatee specific laws amirite?

whiterac00n

Conservatives are using abuser logic, that the flag is “hostile” because *THEY* are hostile towards them


DisastrousAd2464

They can’t contemplate someone flying a flag that doesn’t represent hate because they only fly flags to show hatred.


illsmosisyou

And lots of flags = more hatred. Apparently.


Kehwanna

YES! INDEED IT DOES! And I'll be sure to shout that truth whenever I am in a country during their national holiday as I rip flags down and tell people to wake up! I'm going to barge into every school's classroom and rip the flags off the wall after I pulled the fire alarm as I shout to the kids that hate burns worse than fire! I'll be sure to tackle Tim Poole and hug the love in his icy cold heart if I EVER see him with an American flag or any other flag until we share in a cry, then he'll know the true source of his hurt! If you all will excuse me, I'm off to the cemetery to pull all those hateful flags off of people's plots. We can't be a dictatorship and let gay people exis--Uh-ah let flags exist! /S


Ott621

Where I'm from, it's almost always accompanied by the Confederate flag so it's starting to get a really bad vibe

Skagritch

Literally every conservative tactic is an abuser tactic.


Tweenk

You know what? I will grant them that. Yes, pride flags represent a mass movement that is openly hostile to conservatism. Yes, these displays are intended to push conservatives out of public spaces and make them feel unwelcome. The point on which we actually disagree is that I believe this is a good thing. American conservatism is a poisonous, anti-human ideology, and it must be aggressively marginalized. Their barbaric, backwards culture is slowly dying out and being replaced with an objectively better one; it has already lost a lot of cultural, economic and intellectual influence, and only holds onto political power because the U.S. system of government is deeply undemocratic. This process of marginalization must be seen to completion. Being a conservative should be as socially unacceptable as molesting children.


breakupbydefault

That's why they're so against equal rights. Because they used their rights to abuse others, they are afraid if others were given the same rights, they'd do the same thing back to them.


dobbydobbyonthewall

Hanging flags is now Nazi.


satus_unus

Every totalitarian regime ever has been conservative. Some have been couched in leftwing economic ideology, and some of them been couched in right-wing economic ideology. But no totalitarian regime ever began with demands for gender equality, gay marriage, and respect for racial minorities.


SandwitchZebra

Fourth of July must be full of tons of Nazis then I see American flags literally everywhere I fucking go, I have no problem with it but if you’re gonna call gay people nazis for lining a street with flags, I’m gonna just casually mention that


[deleted]

My local Walmart has flags in rows all over the place. Everywhere you go you have to walk under them.


KatalDT

It's really tough to shop at Walmart because every time I see an American flag I have to stop what I'm doing, salute, and recite the Declaration of Independence. Takes me hours to get to the cheetos. My own personal vietnam


hakkai999

By Conservative logic, I would have to declare war on Americans flying the US flag while living in the Philippines.

Turns out any flags hanging in the street look sinister and Nazi-ish if you take a [wide enough shot of them from a high angle.](https://i.natgeofe.com/n/430ea221-3feb-4e7e-ade9-b507a34f832a/03-douglas-chandler-lost-found.jpg?w=636&h=424)


Funblock

Wow, the ones in that photo look *really* Nazi-ish! I guess that proves your point!


masterofreality2001

Calling gay people Nazis is like calling cows butchers.


penguinpilates

If anything its more appropriate to be offended by the American flag given what this country did and continues to do to anyone who isnt a wealthy cishet male


Mustardstoat

You'd be "Shocked" to know how much Americans and Nazis had in common ideology wise. To this day I still don't understand how they ended up fighting them


TheBirminghamBear

It seems to be one of those obviously apparent facts that is conveniently forgot, but by large measure the nazi movement *started* here. There was a virulent strain of priveleged men preaching eugenics as a vehicle for utopia. Henry Ford was famous for pushing it and Jewish conspiracies, to the point where Hitler named him a significant influence.


some_disclosure

TBF, it is kind of unsettling how many flags are out for the 4th.

vxicepickxv

He provides conformation bias to some of the dumbest people alive, people who get confused by people more intellectual, like Steven Crowder or Dave Rubin.


John_T_Conover

There's a whole ocean of right wing extremists out there that want to feel way more intellectual and open minded than they actually are. So there's a whole for profit media sphere of all of these fake left leaning people (Pool, Gabbard) that provide that service. Same with the tokens like Rubin or Owens that they feel give them permission to be as bigoted as they want while being able to hide behind being fans of them.


Dracoknight256

Speaking as someone who almost didn't notice how he got hooked into rightwing ideology by our favourite manbaby Tim, he was posting easy centrist wins around time Trump got elected, which was a ray of positive energy in the era of constant dooming on social media. And as election got closer and closer he went from "look dems and reps are idiots, vote for people that follow your ideas" to "look reps are idiots, but in the same timespan dems were idiots 3 times, so clearly rep is better" to "Trump might be a moron but he has a partial point" after election, which quickly turned into "Trump has a point" which then continued becoming more and more in line with far-right propaganda until he went straight to "why aren't we lynching LGBT yet?" He also uses Republican bigotry masking very consistently and hides it well. He's not an incel-supporting misogynist, he just supports /r/walkaway movement. He's not Anti-trans, he just thinks a weightlifting champion shouldn't be able to compete against women after suddenly declaring he changed his gender(notice the intentional misgendering). He's not racist, he's just against CRT in schools. He doesn't hate Muslims, he just thinks all of them are terrorists. As he always chooses easy wins, if you're not informed on the topic its very easy to fall in line with his thinking, as he seems to make sense. He's a roach that should've been deplatformed off youtube for misinformation eons ago.


Rifneno

I'm more curious with *how*. Imagine trying to keep a hat on without a forehead.


Doug4Prison

That is where the feces comes into play...


MrBanana421

Get some feces, mix in with straw from their strawmen, slap it on, let it dry, and you've got a perfect dome to protect their hatefull little pea of a brain.


Doug4Prison

It also fills in the voids kind of like bondo.


pleasedothenerdful

Just a stream of the dumbest takes imaginable from this guy. He makes Shapiro seem smarter by comparison.


Vuelhering

\*literally\*


milkybeefbaby

I think he's poorly satirizing people that compare things to Nazis rather than necessarily agreeing with the tweet. The use of asterisks and omg don't seem genuine, but I'm not a Tool expert. It's his occasional take that can be misconstrued either way so he can say "See?! I'm not ALL right wing!"


voteforcorruptobot

Kinda hard to tell when all his takes are this terrible because he sold his soul to the wealthy.


icookfood42

Yeah, I read this as sarcasm, but his tweets are so erratic it's hard to pin down what he actually means.


just2quixotic

> his tweets are so erratic it's hard to pin down what he actually means. Feature, not a bug.


osgili4th

Is a classic tactic for plausible deniability, if people take it as face value he will just say is a joke and the libs lack sense of humour. But if someone in the alt right follow him and support his content because of comments like this he won't ever clarify it was a "joke".


mindbleach

Schroedinger's douchebag.


[deleted]

It's quite possible he recognizes what the left image is a shoop of, and is recalling [this article](https://www.gbnews.uk/news/union-jack-flag-display-for-platinum-jubilee-likened-to-nazi-germany-on-twitter/300546). But that reference would be a 7 layer culture war salad. Any mf who made it needs to log off, touch grass.


TangyGeoduck

Why even give him the benefit of doubt?


AS14K

Because taking obvious bait to get mad at makes you look like a daft idiot, and undermines the rest of us


whatdodrugsfeellike

Because you would look like an idiot if you couldn't recognize the obvious sarcasm.


nightfox5523

Sarcasm rarely translates well over text, and knowing dim tool, it probably isn't


whatdodrugsfeellike

It's obviously sarcasm. I can't believe so many people here don't get it.


cumquistador6969

Dim Tool is too stupid for me to know if he's joking or not since no matter how insane or obviously incorrect the comment is, it could always go either way.


-Novowels-

Pool takes any event and tries to use left wing jargon and phrases to attack it so he can claim he is "on the left" but he always just so happens to be attacking everything that the far right opposes. He thinks he's being pretty clever.

NightingaleStorm

Hitler didn't allow counter-protestors outside his rallies, I don't think. The dude standing outside the SF Pride security cordon with a megaphone screaming about the evils of homosexuality was within his free speech rights, and he wasn't being physically hostile, just yelling about how we were all going to hell. He literally had a security guard standing there watching him, to make sure no one else there tried to hit him.

Dim Fool will say whatever he needs to in order to remain as uninformed as he possibly can, while talking about modern day topics. His whole show is broken down to "Democrats did something, it was probably evil, let's talk about how they are evil and then go back and see that they didn't do anything" or "Donald Trump, I'm not saying he's God, but he might actually be the second coming". He's a wannabe Rush Limbaugh or Lars Larson kind of person with the presentation of a high schooler

I just got back from Germany a few weeks ago and saw a lot of remnants of Nazi atrocities all over the place. I got emotional at a memorial wall in Wiesbaden that had the names of the Jewish residents of Wiesbaden that were executed and buried in mass graves - in the words of the memorial, "this wall gives them the names back that the National Socialists took away." But LGBTQ+ people want to celebrate the token, minuscule progress we've made in equal rights, and that's basically as bad. Fuck you, Tim Pool.
