Sounds like a good solution

Nazi punks fuck off! I'm not a huge Kennedys fan but I'll blast that one any time.

I despise (the sound of) punk but you gotta respect the whole pro-working class, anti-nazi movement.
- That same man said in the same song...
  Punk ain't no religious cult
  Punk means thinking for yourself
- Same. Not a fan of the music in particular, but the lyrics kick ass. Same with a lot of super heavy metal. The two genres that make hearing the words the most difficult also have the most inspiring, poignant, and kick ass lyrics. lol
I always liked "Master Race in Outer Space" by The Vandals. It's about loading all of the nazis into rockets and launching them to the moon. Good stuff.

  You want moon nazis? That's how you get moon nazis.

Beating up nazis and other fascists is self defense.

Violence works. People don't wanna hear it but it works and is a useful and effective tool.
- Violence is never the answer.
  It's a question and the answer is "yes."
- Exactly, when was the last you heard from Richard Spencer? For me it was right before he got punched in the mouth.

Sometimes violence is the answer.

They spend billions to tell us otherwise for a reason!

Surveillance states and mobile recording devices in everyone's pocket, plus a media machine that portrays any violence done as barbarism means that the people delivering haymakers to skinhead fucks are no longer safe themselves

That dude who punched a Nazi in Seattle is fine I'm pretty sure. Punching Nazis is cool
Could go the Black Panther route, just have someone be armed and tell them to leave without actually hurting them. They're cowards and won't go to places they feel threatened.
Deliver haymakers to the police en masse.
- Mm, yes, great idea, I'll totally go punch the lights out of people with the legal ability to shoot me for it.

Does EDM have a nazi problem? Gonna need an explanation on that

It's 2024. I'm more surprised when a subculture doesn't have a Nazi problem, sadly.
- The oddest thing to me was: even Bronies. Even Bronies have/had a Nazi problem.
  I present, 'Aryanne':
Yeah maybe it’s changed recently with the growth in popularity but as someone who’s gone to raves and festivals for well over a decade it’s always been one of the most welcoming cultures.
I know the more major festivals have gotten less so over the years but it’s more just generic assholes not Nazis.
- Depends on which subgenre you mean, EDM is a broad church.

This is why every anti-nazi protest needs to have everyone armed. Those bastards won't show their faces around people who can and will fight back.

Protests in general should be heavily armed and (more importantly) well organized. Whether it's the Nazis or the cops (insert 'same picture' meme here), they're scared of an actual fight
- Everyone is scared of a fight at this point it seems. Only reasoning how it could get this bad before change.
- Bingo.

Nazi punks? fuck off.

Not many groups out there I wish violence upon, but nazis sure as hell make that list.

And the rich, don't forget the rich.
My list is pretty short:
Nazis. Propagandists. Billionaires that affect society for their own benefit. People who hurt kids
Really it could just be two:
Propagandists and people who hurt kids.
Billionaires have no power without propaganda and Nazis aren't made without propaganda.

Furries took up the baseball bat of justice and drove the nazis out so that they had to form the (short-lived) fashcon

I've said it before, I'll say it again. You kids are alright, and will do better than Gen X. We weren't able to do much.

You can't destroy Nazism with your mind. You have to use your body.

My mind controls my body. Checkmate Lemmy.
- Mind/body dualism is a myth, your mind is your brain and your brain is a bodypart.
  Uno reverse card, Lemming.

Tolerance is a social contract. Those who abide by it are protected by it. Those who reject it are not

EDM has a nazi problem?

I thought the same thing, I've never heard of Nazis being into dance music.
- Maybe a bit with gabber or grindcore and harder stuff like that. In the UK/EU at least.

Find a fascist? Blizt'em with a brick! They'll Nazi it comin!

I can't believe this hasnt been taken down. This site is chock full of pussies who think this is advocating violence and you should just tolerate Nazi freedom of speech and try to win them over in the "marketplace of ideas."

That sounds like a lemmy.world problem
Those same people get real salty about "tankies" who they think= anyone left of Biden and not a pacifist.
- Oh no, tankies are those who believe that anybody to the right of Stalin needs to be sent to the gulag.

Similar situation with punk. There are still Nazi Punks, but they're asking for trouble at most gigs or areas with that sort of influence. From Dead Kennedys to Chumba Wamba, folks make it known these days they're not welcome. Shame about the few bands here and there still spreading the rhetorics, yet barking dogs will always be heard in the distance...

I've been to punk rock bowling in Vegas I think four times. One constant is that any hint of Nazi bullshit will get immediately and enthusiastically trampled.
I was at a party in college & a young lady was having a not so great night. She passed out, horked up what apparently looked like Alice Springs Chicken from Outback, & one of her sorority sisters had drawn a swastika on her forehead.
My roommate & I knew where she lived. So I went to grab puke-a-potomous, she went to get her car.
By the time I got back to puke-a-potomous on the couch, someone had turned the swastika into a very crudely drawn Windows logo.
Now I kinda wanna see some NaziPunk get pinned down at a concert, while someone converts his offensive tattoos into corporate logos.
Indeed, the situation with punk is very similar to the situation with punk. Good point.
- Lol I just noticed I did this. Serves me right for getting on Lemmy after medicating! Thanks haha
was it the DK Nazi Punks Fuck Off song that belied their feelings of the nazis

Remember when Nazis literally walked the streets of Tennessee a few months ago?

Yeah, nazis
@frogbrawler sounds like post10
- What is post10?
- Wow, he really does. I wonder what the Venn diagram of post10 and Black Flag fans looks like.
Also this, though it is more subtle in the lyrics, but not much if you are in the know:

There's a saying in my language (Tamil): 'Even siblings don't help the way a good beating does'

Sri Lanka doing it right! 🤣
- Close, but South India

I fully support this. Let's do what we did in ww2.

The king of comics.

You cannot logic someone out of a position that they didn't use logic to get to.
Only two options really, play on their emotional reasoning to make them feel the victim of their own beliefs, or you know, make their physical safety in question.

Wish I could punch Nazis but the whole "problems can't be solved without police intervention" thing kinda gets in the way. I'm not going to fucking jail because I slapped some ignorant bastard.

I still find it hard to not automatically assume a bald guy dressed in typical punk attire isn't a neo-nazi skinhead, since almost every dude I've met that looks like that has been one.

Your assumptiom would most likely be wrong. The vast majority of punks in general are anti-racist and would gladly punch a Nazi. The ones that are most likely to actually deliver the punch are the bald guys in typical punk attire.
The original skinhead movement was very progressive, anti-racist, and there are plenty of skinhead punks still representing it in the exact same way. All of the skinhead punks in my area identify as SHARPS or Skinheads Against Racial Prejudice, and I don't live in a super progressive place or anything.
Nazi skinhead punks aren't seen in public much, nowadays, mostly thanks to the guaranteed violence from the people mentioned above. If they are brave enough to be in public, they will make it known with some sort of asshole patch, asshole tattoo, or doc marten boots with white laces, but I've never seen one at a normal punk show.

- TIL about lace code for docs!
I know a dude who was a hard-core punk in the 80s. He's covered in Circle Jerks tattoos and has all kinds of stories about curb stomping skinheads. Poor guy went completely bald =/
https://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skinheads_Against_Racial_Prejudice
Yeah, appearance is a form of communication whether we like it or not.
In my case, I’m a big white guy with a beard living in a 3/4 red area. So things like red hats, mirrored sunglasses, and camo/punisher/tacticool clothes or accessories aren’t allowed anywhere near me, lol. I stick with thick framed glasses too.
I don't really keep track of fashion for punks, (it feels like there's a hole where fashion knowledge would go-i just can't be arsed to pretend to care) but as an almost entirely bald guy (very short buzz) now I'll have another paranoia to think about.
It won't make any sense (hence why I call it that) since I almost always just wear cargo shorts and a plain solid color tee, but now that annoying part of the brain will have this to latch onto.
I've gone pretty bald so these days I buzz or shave my head. It sucks. People think I'm a Nazi or a cop or military. I guess being mistaken for military isn't that bad but I'm the opposite of a fucking Nazi and looking like a cop makes it hard to buy drugs.
Oh yeah, and punk is my favorite. I used to keep my mohawk up with spray paint.
