    Ive been called a nazi for liking firearms.

    Meanwhile, I openly support antifa.

    So im not sure this is completely accurate.

      I don’t know where this says “No one ever misuses Nazi”

      I’m a supporter of firearms ownership myself

      That’s probably a cultural thing, I would immediately suspect anyone really into guns in the UK as we don’t have a gun culture, and subsequently have far less kids murdered in schools.

      Who called you a Nazi for liking firearms, and why did they do that?

      It’s not a zero sum equation. You being called a nazi for liking fire arms doesn’t cancel out all the people using this argument to defend actual fascists.

      People aren’t always rational. I’m anti-gun in general, but I’m also very pro-antifa and am fully aware that means shooting nazis when it comes to it.

      I’m not against people owning weapons, I’m against the fetishisation of them and I believe they belong in secure storage or for hunting, not strapped to an idiot in Walmart, in people’s videos, or posed with proudly on Christmas cards like a damned Taliban photoshoot.

      There’s a time and a place, and that’s not everywhere all the time, such that minor fistfights become shootouts at the corral.

      I’m pretty left, but I’d never call a regular gun owner a nazi. Whoever said that is an idiot.

      I think that’s just not the topic of this particular comic though.

      The comic is not about someone “calling a person a Nazi for owning firearms”. It is about “calling a Nazi a Nazi”, and someone else ignoring some blatant and obvious facts in response.

      Of course there is also the problem of people calling anyone they don’t like a Nazi. It’s a different problem. The comic doesn’t talk about that at all, and has nothing to do with it.

      Why do you bring it up? Why do you think that’s related?

      Everyone is a Nazi for tankies.

      The increased danger of owning a firearm is one of those deliciously ironic things.
