    "You literally have a Hitler mustache!"

    "So does that guy!" points at Charlie Chaplain

    I read somewhere that Hitler grew a "Charlie Chaplin" mustache because he was a big fan

    It was called the Chaplin before Hitler grew one. Hitler grew it to help soften his public image. He was known to be a big fan of American movies. And had them imported during WWII for private screenings, even though it was illegal in the rest of Nazi Germany.

    I have always read that the style was in vogue among men who had to fight in WWI where the use of gas masks discouraged keeping a full beard or moustache as it hindered adherence.

    You can see the shift in the American presidents too.

    A National Socialist Experiment. He wants to find out how long he can survive in public with a hitler mustache.

    Me? Oh, ahah. no. These people need serious mental help, education, and time away from nazi propagandists.

    It's the right-wingers that are the assassins, apparently. They really know evil, you know? Beats me, they're cultist lunatics. It's not going to be hard for them to detect the "Totally normal guy doing a social experiment" from their scope.

    School full of children > Hitlerized Alex Jones. Where would you rather have the christian terrorist shooting people up?

    I mean he literally felt he needed to point out he didn't think Hitler was the worst, which I'm sure you can have a very academical discussion about but it's really weird to just bring that up out of the blue.

    "Oh yeah Hitler is totally terrible, horrible. Not the worst though, but horrible I tell ya!"

    I'm a white dude who has never been called Hitler. But I comport myself with empathy and dignity. Well, empathy anyway.

    He's just trolling, he needs to sustain attention which translates to income, now that it's waning and he looks like a loser. What else is he supposed to do -- get an HVAC license? Work at an Apple store? His options are limited.

    100% this.

    It's such a well established business model now.

    Stimulate outrage amongst sane normal people. Free publicity. Engage with assholes who will buy your snake oil.

    "Liberals?"

    "See they put this coolant in that will make your daughter gay, we used to have good coolant in this country but I just don't understand how people in this country don't GIVE A FUCK and I said Charlie Kirk stood up and said what was right, and what happened to him? WHAT HAPPENED TO HIM? Where's your daughter, I need to talk with her."

    Gotta point out nazis when you see them, and that's all this is. Alex Jones is a nazi, in a nazi party, as a nazi propagandist, with a hitler mustache to show his nazi allegiance.

    All these guys went to Epstein island, right? Or were they too poor? Bottom tier suckups?

    I wouldn't call it "just trolling". He's normalizing supporting Hitler. What he says and does has a tangible impact on the world. It allows bona fide Hitler supporting neo-Nazis to openly support Hitler, then just make the same claim as Jones when challenged

    Once it gets normalized enough, they drop the plausible deniability

    True that. They're not fully mutually exclusive though. I'm just saying that I think he's doing it more for the attention than because he's decided this is the best way to promote Naziism. The Naziism he decides to openly promote is usually more disguised than this, I think most of even his audience would be more likely to be turned off by this (if they took it seriously) than taken in by it.

    it wasn't against the fascists, the germans just tried to invade outside of their accepted sphere of influence.

    If it was against the fascists, they would have cracked down on Franco and Salazar and the rest as well.

    the only person i've ever seen actually look good with that 'stache is charlie chaplin. the only acceptable use of the toothbrush mustache is in a silent comedy film with a wacky guy sporting a tophat and cane.

    Yeah, great speech and great ending to a film, but I recommend that everyone watch the entire movie.

    Not only is it a great satire (that was made in 1939-40), it's fucking hysterical.

    Yeah we're nowhere fucking close yet. 10 years from now you'll step out of your front door and be knocked over by someone on an e-scooter with a Hitler moustache and a bluetooth speaker playing high-pitched white noise for no particular reason, then get fined because the e-scooter companies bought the sidewalks and renamed them scootwalks and it's illegal to walk on them now and you'll look back at today as some kind of enlightened wonderland.

    Then it'll keep getting worse.

    If you think about the real reaction from the average woman in the street seeing a middle aged angry looking white guy wearing a Hitler moustache unironically is likely to be fear and alarm.

    Now what Jones is saying is he thinks women are "melting" and "going wild" for him.

    Therefore the conclusion that must be drawn is Alex Jones is so broken he thinks fear and disgust from women are signs of horniness.

    If Trump is an indicator of anything is that having no shame whatsoever is a major plus to succeed. When Trump talks about winning and success absolutely no mention of how horrifically he failed all his businesses except for the stuff his dad made sure he would not fuck with (because if he loses those then he will truely be destitute) will ever change his perspective.

    I mean, Trump filed for bankruptcy 6 times JUST on his casinos. CASINOS. A literal license to take people's money and he couldn't figure it out.

  • The failure of his Atlantic City casinos is legendary. People at the time were even commenting on the news on how stupid Trump's management and planning style was. Basically making his own casinos compete and cannibalize one another instead of working against the competition.

    Also Trump is all gaudy trash and looks over functionality. If Trump was born a generation prior he would have been so thoroughly ostracized by wealthier New Yorkers that he would never have had any business connections to work with. He was extremely lucky he 'came of age' in the 80s when showy displays of wealth started becoming more in vogue.
