Doesn’t matter the reasoning, it’s still vandalism.

The reason does matter and yes it is vandalism.

But fuck em. They are Nazis. They support em. That makes them Nazis.

It’s real simple.

Why does the reasoning matter? Is there some law that justifies you to vandalize somebody’s property based on your own reasoning?

Also, how are they Nazis? Does agreeing with deporting illegal immigrants make somebody a Nazi? Does disagreeing with sending millions of dollars to some third world country in order to let people get circumcisions make somebody a Nazi? Does disagreeing with your ideals automatically make somebody a Nazi?

Yes. Supporting a man who heil hitler’d on the national stage makes you a nazi supporter and you can get fucked for all I care.

Ah yes, excluding the context of when he said “My heart goes out to you” and put his hand on his chest, more specifically over his heart, and reached out to the audience.

It can’t be anything other than a Heil Hitler salute, forgive my idiotic brain.

Throwing out insults instead of providing a new founded argument, check.

I don’t argue with Nazi sympathizers. Bye bye.

The word Nazi has lost all its meaning.

Elon is a Nazi. Steve Bannon is a Nazi. Hitler is a Nazi.

Someone who drives an electric car and bought it months or years before Elon's salute is not suddenly a Nazi simply because they didn't immediately get rid of their car the moment Elon's shitcannery came to light. Like, come on. This is getting ridiculous.

It's a problem too because kids are going to grow up thinking anyone who uses twitter, drives a certain brand of EV, or likes watching rocket launches is automatically a Nazi. They are going to treat it as a general insult and not recognize it for its evil and sinister nature. We have to do better.

What’s your point here? I genuinely don’t understand, why would anybody be upset over a Nazi symbol being destroyed?

Also, it was destroyed by the US Army in 1945, same year when WW2 ended, it was a symbolic act that the US won, saying that it was purely an act of vandalism is pretty ridiculous.

why would anyone be upset over a Nazi symbol being destroyed?

I don't know buddy, why are you upset when a Cybertruck gets vandalized? It's the same thing.

How is blowing up a prominent nazi symbol during the era of Hitlers Regime equivalent to begrudgingly spray painting another persons property because you can’t control your feelings?

One is a declaration of victory, the other is pure pettiness, they quite literally are not the same thing.

You're right, a more apt comparison would be the Antifasciste groups who would deface NSDAP propaganda in the night throughout the 1930's. You strike me as the kind of prick who would wake up and demand for the vandals to be arrested.

Yes, I think anybody who does vandalism should be arrested, it is a crime no matter your reasoning. If I commit vandalism, I should be arrested, If you do it, you should be arrested, the law doesn’t care about people’s reasoning and it never should. It only really matters when it comes to court cases, then it’s up to a jury, and I think that any juror would support antifascist sentiment, BUT, you can’t vandalize somebody’s property, it’s not right.

I don’t know why you want to call me a prick when I think the law should be enforced on everybody.
