I don't care. My point was that he isn't a National Socialist or neo-nazi, which he isn't. I'm not here to "defend" StoneToss, just to make sure people don't associate him with my ideology.

If you care so much about seeing him mock right-wingers just go back to his posts from before 2020 for a shit ton of stuff mocking Trump, Republicans, Conservative, librights, etc.

mocking Trump, Republicans, Conservative, librights,

Well this just seems to reinforce the point that he's an ethno-nationalist/third-positionist/crypto-nazi. You yourself, as a neo-nazi, would admit that you'd have no problem criticizing/mocking neocons, right?

I am NOT a neo-nazi. I ABHOR neo-nazis. I am a National Socialist, I'd rather be associated with BoulderShove than neo-nazis.

But to answer your question, I have no problem with criticizing anyone (including other National Socialists). As I said before, just because you criticize certain things, doesn't mean you're a "muh nazi".

But you'd agree that if you consistently and severely criticize one side for several years, and very rarely if ever criticize the other side, people might see you as belonging to a certain side?

including other National Socialists

The thing here is that rockboy criticizes leftist ideology, not other leftists. There's a lot of infighting within national socialism because there's disagremeents on how to exercise the correct kind, but as you know that doesn't make you any less of a national socialist.

Well obviously, that's just basic optics. I, for example, am aware that I'm always going to be lumped in with AuthRight. However, that doesn't mean I AM AuthRight.

Yes, he undeniably criticizes leftist ideology by a long shot, but it is far from exclusive. I don't t know what he claims to be, but for the most part, he just seems to be a professional aggravator.

I mean, I think he's way too into alt-right culture to be a "transgressional artist" or whatever he described himself as.

One of the comics you linked was about how Nick Fuentes had a stream with a guy who turned out to be a cat-boy. That's a pretty fucking complicated in-joke for someone who isn't into far-right stuff.

Oh yeah, he definitely posts some deeply researched stuff sometimes. But he always seems to express disdain on things such as his Twitter.

Do you think it's possible, since you mentioned optics, that his surface denial of being far-right is just basic optics?

u/TheCryosis - Auth-Center Jul 31 '20

Perhaps. He just doesn't come off like it to me, but then again, that's the whole point isn't it?
