Cross-posted from “Two Weeks Ago, Nick Fuentes Bragged about Charlie Kirk’s Dead Ideology and the Groyper Infiltration of Turning Point USA” by @livejamie@lemmy.zip in !chapotraphouse@hexbear.net
I’m new to Lemmy, and this is my first time trying a video. If there’s a better way to do it let me know.
TIL what a groyper was.
Me too. “Nazi”. Americans just can’t use existing words but have to make up their own.
Tbf reusing the same words for peoples new or different idealogies is how we wind up with words losing their meanings. New words can be useful.
The definition of groyper is the same as a nazi.

Call people what they are.

Specific type of nazi with its own context
Really? What’s the difference?
Not German, not glorification of Aryan genes I guess. I wouldn’t make a new name just for that though.
“white” and “aryan” are synonymous in their world.
Traditional German name, Fuentes.
His parents are Mexican. He considers himself white, and tbf he does look like a basic white boi. He’s also quoted as saying he’s Irish and Italian, neither of which qualify for traditional “Aryan” ancestry.
Enrique Tarrio has a similar deal, but doesn’t consider himself a white supremacist, or white himself. This seems to break the minds of a certain kind of liberal that doesn’t seem to understand that Hispanics can be racist against not just black people, but other Hispanics.
God knows what will happen to their brains if we get some actual Africans in trying to spread hate against Nigerians or whatever.
If you want to call all white supremacist fascists Nazis I don’t think anyone reasonable minds that much but you need to understand that the fascists aren’t all on the same wavelength of nationalist brain poisoning and that they’re not tied to traditional definitions anymore than you are, and they disagree about what those definitions themselves.
I don’t know if Fuentes believes in Aryanisn exactly but we do know he believes in the rest of their bullshit. Don’t assume he has to be tied down to the old terminology or you might miss the new ones.
Specific traits of nick Fuentes brand memes/trolling
Stultus est quicumque sua verba fingit.
I still don’t know
I’ll save you the energy, it’s just a person who is even farther right than the typical Right wing person and who criticizes typical right wing people for not being right wing enough. Like, maybe someone who would kill Kirk because he wasn’t right wing enough.
I am all for 8chan trolls taking MAGA on. MAGA wouldn’t stand a chance and it would be entertaining from the sideline.
