Neo-Nazis Faked Out by Trick T-Shirts

[thewinner194]

That's pretty great. I have to say, very clever.

 

[GrimSheeper]

This makes me happy, I salute the idea.

Extremism doesn't necessarily preclude intelligence. Leon Trotsky was a very clever man, to give the first example that springs to mind.

As for the t-shirts; good work, I think it's a very laudable initiative. Thinking about it, usually you're alone when you wash your clothes/get dressed, so the message catches people in private, away from peer pressure. Which would make it easier to act on doubts that someone in an extremist crowd couldn't say out loud.

I'm trying to think how a shirt can do that and you not notice when you pick it up/put it on

eh, still cool.

Actually, screw that. I want a shirt of this wash-n-morph type that becomes a full portrait of Rick Astley. Just to mess with people.
Maybe it could start off as a My Little Pony shirt.

Extremists by nature are not intelligent, thoughtful people. People, yes. Intelligent and thoughtful? They wouldn't be extremists. Extremists are hotheaded, narrow-minded egotists that have fallen to propaganda and hate rhetoric (which feeds off their own unchecked hatreds, no less), 99% of the time.

Unfair stereotypes do as unfair stereotypes are.

Trolling, awesome style.

I love those guys, absolutely genius.

my thoughts exactly.
but how did they do it? magic? it was magic, wasnt it?

 

[Viral_Lola]

That's really clever.

How long before someone remakes the Downfall video to talk about this?

Anyway, top work.

You'd be amazed how many thoughtful intelligent people get swept up in this. Extremists are no more stereotypical than we are.

Hell, the NASI party wouldn't have got going without at least a few thoughtful people on board who were "swayed".

I'm sure they're worried that the NEO-NAZIS who didn't get the message are upset at them. The one's who didn't get the message are as thick-headed, and intelligent, as rocks. I'm surprised most of the skinheads can make it outside in the morning without accidentally killing themselves on their breakfast cereals.

That's a stereotype. I'm not Neo-Nazi, but the right-wing extremists I have known are all intelligent, thoughtful people. Construe their politics as wrong all you want, but don't underestimate their mental capabilities. They are people too.

OT: As I have just watched American History X, I have to say I am more than pleased to see this. Skinheads and other racists piss me off to no end, and they either need to be detained until they are rehabilitated, or simply detained so they cannot hurt racial minorities in society any longer, simply for being a racial minority.

Not all Skinheads are racist, just putting that out there.

Then Lenin killed him and photoshopped him out of existence. Also Communism is a retarded economically crippling system that is easily as bad, if not worse, than what they replaced.

I did not realize Neo-Nazis were so prevelent. I assumed they were comparable to the KKK in the US. Still around, but more hidden, not very powerful, and pissing in the woods.

well, they are. What about this post makes you think they would be an accepted pillar of our community?

nice

 

[Treblaine]

I'd have trolled them a bit harder than offering the ma way out.

It is EASY to leave far-right groups, if you want to.

An aprently racist rock concert where people need to be saved since its too big to save yourself...and there is even a head guy who is so calm. Unless I am completly mixing things up. I honestly am confused.

Clever, very very clever, why don't people here in the states ever seem to think of something like that?

This is the best idea ever.

Unfair stereotypes do as unfair stereotypes are.

>Implying that any kind of racism/right-wing extremism isn't entirely based on unfair stereotypes.

ShadowsOfHope is right. People get suckered into extremism because they end up believing whatever stereotypes or propaganda that's fed to them. Maybe not straight away - Shadows isn't calling them simple - but if you allow yourself to be influenced by it, then I don't think it's an unfair stereotype to be called hotheaded or narrow-minded.

This is just brilliant, so funny.

 

[Gitty101]

Now that was a seriously good idea. Quite original too. I applaud the people responsible and to the Neo-Nazi R-tards, they can go and rot in a hole in the wall for all I care.
