    This was rumoured to have come about because everyone was saying Dictator Dan, and throwing nazi salutes at him, though, right?

    This was more about Dan not being upset, and being able to have protesters arrested if he got upset. This has been years in the making.

    And now he's resigned.

    That's how I understood it when it was first announced back in the day anyway.

      I heard it was because everyone was throwing Nazi salutes in public spaces in support of the current liberal candidate but maybe whoever said that was making it the fuck up

      edit for raptor squad this is entirely sarcastic but Christ you're dense mate

      No.

      This happened after a bunch of nazis inserting themselves into everything imaginable (and yes, they did co-opt a lot of the dissatisfaction over lockdowns) pissing more and more people off until we literally ended with a situation where they got a protective cop ring around them and started flinging seig heils and there was no legal way to get them on the harm they were doing.

      Fuck that noise.

      Also fuckin' dan couldn't give a shit what nutballs chant in the street when the voters kept putting him back in the seat. Don't be such a five year old
