some choice quotes

redditor implies saying cracker is cringe: Either way, it's cringe to use a slur, especially the amount that some people in Hasan's community use it. A lot of them are probably larping/baby socialist 20-year-olds that only know the term because of Hasan's community.

an unlikely ally: I have no horse in this race, nor do I think that what Hasan thinks should be over how an actual Cuban person feels about a word, meaning if Destiny says it's fucked, that should be the end of it... But as an Argentinian and what I just saw on that clip....that list is bullshit lol

a walk through memory lane: I remember when vandalizing Wikipedia was the internet beef equivalent of a war crime and would make you universally hated for even attempting it. Now we have fanbases like Keffals' and Hasan's who find it perfectly morally acceptable to manipulate Wikipedia to push their agendas.

      With the word "Nazi" you could make a salient point about how all Germans are painted with a caricature that was created by wartime propaganda and how we casually and offensively imply that every single German was and still is a fascist - but cryptofash would just use it as a smokescreen so don't do it.

        funny enough, someone did exactly that on the talk page for the wiki article.

        I made a comment but I think we should avoid brigading, which would only undermine any potential for removing it.

      I shit you not, rockthrow tried to (albeit he was using intentional logical fallacies) to imply that Nazi is a slur for white people.
