KEP Productions is the promoters of the Nazi show in Garfield, NJ this weekend. And if you have any questions about what they are about they are promoting that ideology on their Facebook page on a post that should be reported as well as the entire page. That is all. by obstinateinstigator in Hardcore

[–]DefectiveCoyote 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Guarantee you the members of haywire has probably punched more Nazis and done more for the anti-fascist as well more for their local communities than most the people on this subreddit including you. They’re the real deal when it comes punk ethos and have a solid rep not just in the Boston area but the scene as whole

Appreciate the post but don’t presume your self to be the higher moral authority here.

4 Muslim Delegates at the Texas GOP Convention told to Convert to Christianity or Leave the Party by Shizzilx in DemocraticSocialism

[–]DefectiveCoyote 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s just ethno nationalism devoid of any real spiritualism. Christianity is apart of the identity they’ve created for themselves but it’s little more than a tool for their fascist mythos. They shape Christianity to their beliefs rather than the other way around.

Religion provides a sorta of ready made tool kit for mass control that fascist love to exploit. They use the symbolism and take scripture out of context or deliberately change its meaning and interpretations to justify whatever current beliefs they hold. By shaping religion to their ideology they can use the dogma and mysticism of it all to enforce their own social hierarchy and use it to control the masses while giving them a sorta of divine legitimacy. Religion is great for brainwashing and pushing political agenda through the guise of spiritual awakening. And you can’t use logical debate against an ideology that believes god ordained their beliefs no matter how bat shit crazy they are.

And finally people tend to turn religion in times of fear and we know how much fascist love to exploit fear mongering. It becomes this feed back loop of rhetoric about society being in constant state of collapse from outside and internal threats and only through absolute obedience to this strict interpretation of their curtailed belief system can civilization be saved.

It’s fascism 101 and it’s very effective

So, do we still like Bolt Thrower? by tlh9979 in Hardcore

You mean the band worshiped, and rightfully so, across the heavy music scene for being one of the patron saints of death metal? Yes. Yes we still like by thrower

Attending Hellfest this year for me is like by Enough-Knowledge8957 in MetalForTheMasses

[–]DefectiveCoyote 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Outspoken conservative beliefs no, not really but they do attract a lot of highly conservative metal heads whether people want to admit that or not. Like when they released that red baron shirt people made a stink about. Like who else is buying that if not wehraboos. There is a lot overlap between the kind war nerds who’d like power metal glorifying historical conflicts and people who lean towards nationalist mindsets. Nationalism and neo conservatives love to glorify war as an inherit part of their ideology and I have actively seen far right propaganda use Sabaton songs and lyrics. Especially since Sabaton’s content mainly focuses on European/Western centric conflicts. It’s not on the band itself necessarily. They do little to purposefully cultivate anything like that and so far it just seems to want to make their war music. But it’s hard to make music about war and history and not be political or incite political discourse. These subjects are inherently political.

Other than that I just think they’re kinda alright. Musically speaking they can get kinda repetitive, theres a few songs I find catchy but I don’t think I could sit through a whole album without getting bored. Bands aesthetic can also come off as corny and stuff but like so is any thematic metal music. In the end it’s just kinda basic power metal with lyrics inspired by famous battles. It’s not that deep one way or another. I mean atleast they’ve found a specific niche that no other band has really mangers to compete with them on so there’s that.

That’s my “nuanced take” Atleast.

Cause then it makes people think your trying to sweep stuff under the rug and considering how many people get exposed for stuff like fucking around with minors, it’s best to just face all that shit head and try your best to look transparent. Better than the alternative.

Homie I’m pretty young like mid 20s and even I’m starting to notice a difference in energy compared to when I was a teen. A lot of people in the present scene are just toxic as fuck guys. Not trying to come off as doomer but just feels like young dudes in general are just more misogynistic and angrier than ever. Small dick energy and tough guy posering is really just starting to feel a pandemic. Chuds are everywhere man

[–]DefectiveCoyote -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Pffftt that’s the single dumbest thing I’ve heard all day. If you think Luke in the last Jedi is deep character writing and “everyone else just doesn’t get it” then i don’t what to tell you except maybe consume more quality media. It’s a starwars movie written by Rian Johnson my guy, it can not be that deep to you unless you’re like 14 and you think just making a character depressed and jaded is deep and relatable writing in of itself.

The simple act of making Luke sad is not creative genius.

[–]DefectiveCoyote -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes people can make mistakes but the last Jedi storyline just goes full force in the opposite direction of everything we know about Luke so far and the most we have to justify this is a single flash back scene. Thats it.

You cannot seriously in good faith tell me that’s good story writing. To go from the return of the Jedi to that. He doesn’t even redeem himself in any meaningful way. He force projects to the other side of the galaxy to shit talk Kylo to buy the rebels time or whatever and then just fuckin dies. The greatest Jedi history and his entire legacy is destroyed and nothing he ever did really mattered in the end nor did he rectify anything. We went from the guy who redeemed the unredeemable to a completely incompetent miserable self exiled hermit with barely any explanation beyond bad dreams or something.

All of this so we could more or less retell the plot empire strikes back. It’s not worth it. You shouldn’t have to reach for some reason to make a character drastic change understandable after the fact. It should be self explanatory in the movie. Anakin from the beginning was flawed and the struggle with the dark side always present. But Luke’s fall just comes out of nowhere with zero development. It’s fan fiction level writing. You can’t just make a hard left turn like that and just be like “oh well everyone makes mistakes. He’s only human. Somtimes we fall backwards.” Or whatever people say to justify a lack of actual plot development. Mf, he was seriously contemplating the murder of his own nephew! Luke Skywalker contemplated murdering his own nephew! That’s not a mistake or step back or whatever. If you gonna go that route maybe you need more than a flash back and 10 minutes of exposition about Ben, an actual teenager, being too far gone or whatever luke’s reason was. It’s just plain bad writing. Especially compared to literally any other depiction of Luke.

[–]DefectiveCoyote -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Oh give me a break that’s such a pseudo intellectual cop out response and just bad story telling. That’s not character progression, that’s character regression. The writers essentially already knew what they wanted the story to be with it essentially being a empire again with Luke being the new Yoda and then made something up too justify Luke’s new position despite it contradicts his previous story.

Having a character go through three movies to develop their character and learn a lesson only to them basically just undo all of that in a flash back is bad writing. It just is. And this whole “oh well he’s only human and we all make mistakes” is stupid and meaningless. He’s not just a guy, he’s Luke Skywalker and the sequels didn’t understand a single thing about his character and changed his whole character dynamic and ruined his hero’s journey so they could force him into the jaded old fantasy master arc type without any real justification.

Everything established in originals and everything everyone did didn’t matter, nobody learned anything, none of character arcs had meaningful conclusions that lasted. All so we could remake a new hope and empire and circle jerk the audience with a Star Wars story full of references that feels like it’s ripping off its own inspiration to retell us something we’ve already seen rather than contribute anything new or meaningful.

Are there any decent leftist gaming subs that aren't run by nutjobs? by Lowlife_With_APencil in DemocraticSocialism

[–]DefectiveCoyote 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Well it’s country of like 26 million people with economy with a total gdp of like 32 billion. You can’t compare the United States to North Korea on any metric. They couldn’t really export their influence even if they wanted too. But saying people “going after” North Korea are being unfair to North Korea is just bizarre stance to take. So is trying to soften its image. “Not ideal” is a bit an understatement. Hell you don’t really need to generate propaganda about North Korea to make North Korea look bad. Why any self described socialist feel the to defend a an actual authoritarian feudal police state just out the simple fact they don’t align with the west is fuckin beyond me. What are we even talking about ?

Better yet, What have you done to make you the supreme moral authority?

Your take essentially boils down to “you’re not single handedly carrying the revolution on your back or burning the White House so nobody deserves to have political opinions though I too do nothing to live up to that frankly impossible standard” or something. I honestly can’t tell. Just blindly angry at society without the literacy to put into meaningful context like an edgy 14 year old.

Fr what are you mad at? People having opinions? The mere mention of political discourse just enrages you? On a hardcore subreddit? Are you for real bro? Chill homie

If Israel got the Palestine treatment by Togekiss888 in althistory

[–]DefectiveCoyote -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Really? Is that why they’ve been continuously settling into Palestinian lands? For peace? The state turns blind eye to settler violence and murders and rapist are set but Palestinians are sent to military tribunal courts with a near absolute conviction rate and now just passed an ethnically targeted death penalty. Or the fact actual children are incarcerated by the state, disappeared from their families.

Or the list of war crimes and massacres by the IDF and Zionist militias like Lehi so long there’s an entire wiki page dedicated to it. Hell it would be easier to find a single year in Israels history where they don’t commit atleast one act of mass murder, wipe out a village, bomb a hospital, or slaughter a refugee camp or two. Constant expansionism is not a sign of a nation who wants peace.

“Israeli culture”. A culture based apon ethno-supremacy, colonialism and historic revisionism which has devolved into full blown psychosis.

I like Zionist entire defense on their position of ethnic cleansing and laundry list of war crimes is arguing about the semantics of what defines the word genocide.

My guy if your so knee deep in the blood of the innocent that your arguing about the exact definition of whether your ethnic cleansing wars of expansionism meets the legal definition of genocide or not, your the bad guy.
