    Because you did not do shit.

    You supported a nazi, knowing he was a nazi, because “People can change UWU”. Not even because he changed, but because theoretically people can. And all you did what “I acknowledge I was wrong”. And? are you in the streets protesting for his resignation? are you doing anything besides telling us you are cool with nazis as long as they don’t engage in sexual violence towards white women?

    No, you are just trying to get sympathy online with zero praxis.

    I was a zionist growing up. I went to Israel when I was 18. I saw apartheid with my own eyes and have been trying to make reparations.

    I participate in a local anti-war orgs help organize, protest as often as I can, I write antizionist articles and essays, I organize a local Jewish bund. Why? Because I have to, because I still feel guilty for the things I said when I was 18, because I wont stop feeling guilty until Palestine is free. If I was like you I would say, cool, glad I learned and don’t have to do anything about it.

    Where the fuck is your accountability?

    As far as it sounds, you are a nazi supporter that happens to be against rape.

    Admitting being wrong is just useless chatter unless your actions show it.

      I organize an activist and mutual aid group, so you can get off your high horse and stop accusing me of doing nothing. You saw one comment and assumed I am doing nothing. You saw through one window and think you can saw through my whole house.

      And no, I wasnt defending him because I just think people can change. I thought he did change because of his apologies and beliefs. I felt the tattoo was not evidence enough against this because I could see scenarios where a former soldier, mercenary, and bluecollar worker from Maine would get a tattoo not knowing it was a nazi symbol.

      Now leave me alone or I’m just gonna block you. I no longer have the patience for your bad faith scolding and demands for self-flagellation.

      Edit: also thinking that someone making a couple comments on the internet giving the benefit of the doubt is somehow equivalent to nazi apologia or defending colonialism and genocide is, once again, crazy.

      Edit 2: Also also, as someone pointed out, this person is a fucking victim blamer. So frankly they can eat shit. Crazy they think they got ground to stand on. https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/comment/26963454

        He had a nazi tattoo.

        You do not get to be so naïve, that is called wilful ignorance.

        If he changed, he would have removed it out of his own volition. He knew it was a nazi tattoo, he liked it, and only got a coverup after national outrage. You chose to support a nazi because you chose to be ignorant.

        There is absolutely no excuse, and you have to accept that you weren’t tricked to support a nazi, you chose to support one.

        He was a goddamn blackwater mercenary with a nazi tattoo. I have absolutely no idea who anyone can be so stupid as to support him. This is MAGA levels of stupidity.

        Good, block me, I have no patience for nazi supporters and apologists.
