    Nah I understand it. They're admitting ignorance so as to not come off as instigating but they don't want to ignore the fashposting so they're looking for a recap of that discourse

      I follow you, you're a bit more generous than I am about this. I suppose if they really are an ignorant redditor asking what the hell is going on that fair

        I mean for us Fascists vs. Socialists is the driving dynamic behind the entirety of human history from 1917 to the present. For Libs their experience Nazis comes from 3 hours of instruction in 8th grade and maybe they saw that old Tarantino movie from over a decade ago. They saw some people calling Trump a Nazi but they don't really know what it means, it doesn't have any visceral weight to it. They've never seen a Sonnenrad, they have no idea what a Wolfsangel is, They think runic tattoos look cool because there are a bunch of TV shows about Vikings. They know the SS runes are bad but they mostly think it's tacky racism, not a direct death threat. They have no fucking idea that Nazism and Fascism survived the war and has been a powerful ideological force throughout the entire Cold War and post-Cold War period
