You probably don’t need a masters degree to debunk this one.

Um, what does he think Antifa means? You notice how they almost exclusively use the abbreviation and hardly ever the full name? For those who might actually be unaware, it means Anti-Fascist.

Scott Adams is a fucking moron. He apparently thinks anti-fascists are actually pro-fascist. Dumbass.

He’s probably one of those people who think the nazis were socialists because nazi is short for “national socialist”.
- Probably, despite the fact that Hitler himself said they weren't socialists.
- Or who conveniently forget about the Southern Strategy and the great party switch. Massive, massive mental gymnastics to put themselves on the 'right' side of history every time
- I thought it was "I did Nazi that coming"
  /S
- While I agree with both of you, these two points kinda contradict each other.
A lot of conservatives have problems understanding words, especially words that apply to political beliefs. It's party ignorance and partly a result of years of indoctrination. One example, thinking that anyone who isn't hard-right is a 'socialist' or a 'commie' and not understanding that those aren't the same thing. Then, fascist... many people seem to think fascist means an authoritarian government, independent of any other qualities or beliefs.
I've heard more than one person on Fox News or other Right Wing stations call them Fascist Antifa.

Antifa literally means "anti-fascist." Anyone who fought against the Nazis in WWII was "antifa."

And Scott Adams lost his f*cking mind years ago.

I know at least 4 (I wanna say 6 but 4 confirmed confidently) righty leaning lads who are anti trans for what they will say are varied, diverse, weighty reasons - who all collectively tell the same story word for word any and everytime trans issues come up....
"I hit it off with a girl on Tinder, then two days in before we met or got serious or even talked all that much (just enough for me to be smitten) they told me they were trans, and I'm not a bigot, BUT IF THEY DON'T PUT THAT SHIT IN THEIR BIO THEY DESERVE WHATEVER HAPPENS TO THEM"
Nobody understands when I explain that their violent response to a trans woman on tinder is why trans women don't put it in their bio.
Shocker.
You can swear on the internet fyi

  Maybe she didn't want to though

The Dilbert guy really went off the deep end, didn't he?

He went far enough, that there's a Behind the Bastards episode about him.
Along with Chachi, Hercules, and the Wheel of Fortune guy. Conservatism (read: Fox News) will rot your fucking brain.
- What’s this about Wheel of Fortune?
Wait, I thought that was just a random idiot, are you telling me that's the author of Dilbert?
- Hah yeah... It also wasn't until this post that I made that connection. For the past few years I've heard of "the Dilbert Guy going off the deep end" and seen random posts (like this) with this Scott character being an absolute moron
  mind blown meme
He certainly did
It's almost as if Fox News rots your brain! Or maybe boomers just licked a lot of lead paint as kids...

4k retweets and 8k likes. I'd say twitter is a shithole, but those morons are people, and they will just go sonewhere else when twitter dies.

They are probably already on Truth Social.

Anyone listen to the Behind the Bastards pod on Adams? It was a two-parter that was awesome. Google it Lemmies.

Care to synopsize?
- He was a very special boy who thought he was smarter than everyone else.
  Now he's a dipshit racist alt-righter (redundant, I know) who thinks he's smarter than everyone else.

Alexa, what does the "fa" on "antifa" stands for? and also totally unrelated question, who were the main allies of the Nazis?

and also totally unrelated question, who were the main allies of the Nazis?
The Soviets, as per the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact.

Every word uttered by a conservative is either a lie or profoundly incorrect. Every communication is an attempt to manipulate. This is who conservatives are.

Never trust the word of a conservative. Never.

I used to read ToiletPaperUSA on reedit and yeah, fuckin Charlie Kirk. EVERYTHING he posts online contains fallacies and conflations attempting to manipulate people, like he knows his ideas can't stand on their own without dishonesty.

Well actually the KPD and the NSDAP did work together as they saw the SPD as their combined enemy.

Here is a PhD thesis to the topic.

Edit: I did not mean literally all the time, one single time before the NSDAP rose to power.

See @jerdle_lemmy@lemmy.world's comment below
No. No it wasn’t. Antifaschistische Aktion was a paramilitary wing of the communists, fighting both the social democratic Iron Front and the Nazi Sturmabteilung.
The only way in which it could be said to be allied with the Nazis is that both of them opposed the social democrats, but the enemy of your enemy is not in fact your friend. The KPD saw both the SPD and the NSDAP as fascists, rather than in any way allying with the NSDAP against the SPD.
- Bro I literally linked a PHd thesis

Your "opinion" exposes you don't understand what antifascists are. Antifa is not a group. It literally is just an abbreviated form of the word antifascist. "Antifa" doesn't do anything. It has no form or organization. It's just an idea. It's like saying socialist or conservative.
- They pretty much posted themself in !confidently_incorrect@lemmy.world , that's ironic
Sad troll

LOL, Scott Adams can't cope with reality so he has to make up history to make himself feel better.

The fact that he's rich is the only reason he hasn't been Baker acted.
