My brother shared it on FB, with the comment that 'this is not by accident'.
Jesus. I have to be with him for three days this week. He's my brother and I love him but he's way off the reservation.

It's offensive and ignorant as fuck to call them "nazi runes." It's taken a lot of work on the part of scando cultures to re-educate the world about their own history. Norse runes aren't racist, you shitheads, sorry, and no they aren't "Nazi runes." They're far, far older than the Third Reich assholes who used them for their terrible propaganda.

You're, of course, right. But try explaining that to someone who puts a swastika on his sleeve.

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

You are of course correct, Horace. The problem is that any attempt at reason would simply be met with a tirade of nutzi indignation from he and his friends. There's just no point.

Entirely depends on the style of swastika.

It's anecdotes like this that make me believe that left wing nuttery is way more prevalent than right wing nuttery. I hear about right wing nuttery from twitter reports by jon, little elsewhere. I live with, and hear personal accounts of, left wing nuttery.
Education is extremely important.

After the confederate statues, if the futhorc is next, I promise you that I will be spraypainting or wheatpasting the shit out of "peace and love" and "co-exist" in runic everywhere I can get away with it. Everywhere. It'll be a hobby.
Please love yourself.

I think locality is more important than sums. Doesn't do much to say there are more leftwing nutters overall if all your rural neighbors are Qanon Trumpists.
But around my area, yeah, far more left-wing nutters, so they're of more concern to me than the far-right.

I think that’s just selective hearing. Nuttery is strictly bell curve. Law of nature. Just like Newton’s laws of motion.

No, culture creates nuttery, often more in one direction than another.

If you think you only hear about it second or third hand from me it's definitely selective hearing. We actually get right wing nuttery posted here directly, with neither self-awareness nor ironic intent.

Well no, I don't claim a complete absence of nuttery on the right, even right here on the brilliant TNCR forum. That sort of claim is like trying to claim that a white police officer will never again kill a black person on video under questionable circumstances. A reasonable person doesn't count on it.

I see both regularly. Don't like it from either side.

Nuttery appears to be a feature rather than a bug, especially in tribal rituals.

You must admit, that without left-wing nuttery and right-wing nuttery, the centrists couldn't handle carrying either torch and our lives would be all the more boring. And "reporters" could save hundreds of hours of writing nonsense.
I liked the Nazi's boots. The ones that come up almost to the knee, and are polished like a high priced tier 1 polyester.
That was one of only a couple of things my dad was able to bring over to the U.S. from his years in the Wehrmacht. I think he wore the boots under his pants both in Germany in the DP camps, and on the ship.
When I was in Jr. High and in a rock band, and even into high school where we were playing gigs every weekend, I wore those boots. The souls were so worn out I had to use nails to keep it together. But everyone thought they were way cool, and were certainly a catalyst for lame jokes of every politically incorrect persuasion.
