Man yells "Heil Hitler, Heil Trump" during Baltimore performance of "Fiddler on the Roof"
- Thread starter Saya
- Start date
Surprised the people around him didn't immediately beat the shit out of him believing he was about to shoot uo the place.
I would have thought the same as the rest of the people there and probably would have started to make a run for it. It's awful that many people's first instinct now is that there's going to be a shooting. I've been to the Hippodrome several times, and those seats are cramped as hell, so I can only imagine people tripping all over the place during a panic.
Sure, that doesn't mean I wouldn't still think that. That's fucing terrifying to hear in a very tight theater where as a member of the audience are super limited in where you can go at a moments notice.
Not only is it a Jewish play, it deals extensively with persecution and pogroms. This terrorist knew what he was fucking doing.
No, they are not.
How can you say that after everything that has happened in the past two years? You cannot use ignorance as an excuse.
This was stupid.
People argued this during the bombs too. No one is risking prison time to make Trump look bad, he looks bad on his own.
I don't think you were following the conversation. The poster was responding to the audience not getting shot at cause "they were white"
What the fuck is this shit?
"Hey, you! You... Stop being such a bad Nazi! Bad Nazi! Who's a bad Nazi? You are! You are!"
At least fine the prick for disturbing the peace.
Christ.
Yelling fire in a movie theater is against the law but shouting out nazi phrases during a jewish play is a-ok.
White supremecists love thinking that Jews can't be white.
Read the comments at your own risk.
The president called nazis very fine people over a year ago and he didn't even face censure, impeachment, removal from office, or hearings over it.
A man just recently went on a killing spree in a synagogue to murder as many jews as possible while calling for their complete extermination. The president criticized the synagogue
Nazis are flaunting their ideology and acting on it.
I'm fucking terrified for my life. Your sarcasm belittles the very real danger people are in and you are completely blind to this.
I'm still working my way through the thread, so if it was dropped later, yes. I responded to the post the moment I came across it, since it's so alarming. If I face a ban because I didn't wait until I was done reading responses to it, so be it.
Extremists would go after the source of the issue or at least what they perceive to be the issue, see neo nazis attacking minorities, the leftist terrorist shooting steve scalise. A false flag extremist makes very little sense, has no evidence in this case and completely ignores the support that neo nazis give to Trump and that he returns.
You're trying to both sides a neo-nazi intimidating a jewish crowd at a play about judaism.
I know that, in a controlled situation where I can sit back and analyze the situation, if there is someone announcing thier intention to begin a mass shooting standing directly next to me that my best chance for survival is just to full force tackle him. Im so close that I will undoubtedly get shot either way.
In the moment? My brain will be screaming at me to run away and I have no doubt thats what I would end up doing.
Disturbing the peace charges are only for people who hurt cops' feelings but didn't commit any crimes.
Okay, so it's illegal to shout fire ina crowded theater, but not "heil hitler" in a crowded theater in NYC during a Jewish play, shortly after a synagogue was shot up by a nazi.
Are any of you going to actually do anything to prevent the nazis from killing us this time? Because it seems like neither the government nor the general public cares. Fucking protect us. I'm pleading to the general public as a frightened Jew. You think armed guards at churches sound absurd. That is a reality I've lived with my whole life attending high holiday services.
We need your help. I know you're mostly on our side, here and elsewhere, but the situation is pretty fucking dire. Don't give anyone a pass, family or otherwise, for looking past these views when voting.

Because I think this bears repeating in every one of these nazi/white supremacist threads.
None of the untagged humor is funny.
Yeah; he deserved a fucking punch in the face at bare minimum. Shame he didn't accidentally fall off the balcony to his death to be honest. But I'm sure the all right would defend his right to freeze peach and say there haven't been any Nazis since the 1940s.

This.
After the first word, I would have already bolted.
I see you.
I'm trans in the USA so I have also felt afraid of being abandoned in recent times. Seeing how my Jewish friends reacted to the recent shooting made me more aware of how frightening it must be to be on the receiving end of antisemitic hate. I'm sorry it's so bad right now, and I hope that I and other people of conscience will stand up to defend not just you, but each other in the times ahead.
I read a lot of posts on this forum, and very rarely does anyone post utter crap on that level.
I don't think people realize that it's not like 40% of the german population suddenly wanted to kill jews. It took years of normalization and a tiny fraction of the base that approved of hitler's overall performance. "Eh, it sucks that those businesses got vandalized and the police won't come down with harsher charges or sentences for the perpetrators, but what can you do?" Nazi members who saw maintaining party unity and preserving hitler's vision as more important than blowing it all up over some bad rhetoric, stochastic terrorism, or a few ghettos, even when there were some unfortunate deaths.
"Never again" was supposed to mean that from now on, we would come down hard on this kind of extremism, with a harsh fist and mob justice, to make sure that the evildoers knew that this was not okay, and to cease and desist immediately, so that it would never even get the chance to fester and normalize. Many countries, germany included, even passed laws barring public displays of nazi symbols or ideology, to directly outlaw the normalization.
I feel like somewhere over the last several years, the US has lost that. It used to be inviting a punch in the face to support nazism, to kill a business for hiring nazis. No one would dare shout heil hitler at a fucking fiddler on the roof performance because it would be the equivalent of raping a baby on national television.
heh, you must've missed gems like this one

I've seen a dude tweeting "Heil Felix, Heil our people" after Pewdiepie complimented Stefan Molyneux's sweater. I checked out his profile and he describes himself as a "Social-Nationalist", as in Nazi backwards. There are a lot of these people lying around just waiting for things to heil.
1. Someone once pointed out to me that the U.S. spent a lot of effort in denazifying Germany and yet never bothered doing the same thing for the supporters they had at home. I thought that was interesting.
2. The first amendment is written in such a way that it explicitly protects hate speech, so trying to set up hate speech laws in the U.S. is an exercise in futility. Look it up, you'll find cases of it coming to the Supreme Court and Scalia outright say explicitly that hate speech is legal. It's heinous.
"Kill all Jews" is legal.
"Kill GaimeGuy, that particular Jew [and every jew he knows, and every jew known by anyone known by association to GaimeGuy by any number of degrees of separation"] is not.
But there's no difference in meaning
