Personally I don’t think banning associating with any group is a good thing. There lies neo-McCarthyism.
Not remotely the issue here. This isn’t about banning, this is about not having or having nazi simps influencing a political party. Huge difference between, “can’t be a part of our group if you associate”, and, “associating with these People is verboten!”
Much like Folks that fly to Moscow on July 4th so they can bend knee to pootie should not be allowed in Congress. Nazis should not be involved in any Political Party which remains relevant. But here we are.

Really? Because the article spells out the problem in the second paragraph.
In a 32-29 vote, the party’s executive committee decided against excluding from their organization those “known to espouse or tolerate antisemitism, pro-Nazi sympathies or Holocaust denial”. A proposal to ban such individuals was included in a resolution supporting Israel as it wars with Hamas in Gaza.
Am I an antisemite because I think Israel is off the hook currently? Some people think so. Does it make me a Nazi, or as you say a “nazi simp”? I find that idea laughable, but maybe those same people think so. Maybe you do too. Or maybe someone in power a year from now will think so. I have no desire to participate in the Texas Republican party, nor any Republican party, but 100% any such resolution is going to open the door to weaponize those definitions, and the topic at hand is a current-day example.
And here’s another article to back up my perception of measures such as these:
Republicans’ Dangerous New Bill Would Try to Muzzle All Criticism of Israel
And by the way - the downvote button isn’t intended as a disagree button. If you think I’m wrong, show me how I am.
Expelled from a club isn’t getting banned. The Constitution requires a person be Born in the US and at least 35 Years old. Are 27 Year olds banned? Are Russians Banned? No, they are excluded from a group for not meeting the criteria to be eligible.
There is no banning going on. You are simply desperate to pretend that the Republicans are correct to not exclude Fascists from running their party. They are not. Nazis should be excluded.
The crazy thing is a lot of people forget about that July 4th trip by Republicans to kiss Putin’s ass in Moscow. So much insane shit happened during Trump’s 4 years, it’s all so overwhelming. Plenty of traitors in that administration - well before Jan. 6th too.
If Republicans could not associate with Nazis anymore, they would loose a lot of friends…
Texas is so full of cowards now, even Nazis feel at home
Only reason I’m not okay with bombing Nazis, is I know some decent people who have the misfortune to live next to one.
Well. Maybe that ninja-blade hellfire. (Does that count as a bomb?)
The picture is a Lancaster dropping a “blockbuster” bomb in conjunction with incendiary bomblets.
Wrecking and torching a city is not OK in my book. But I’m less concerned with the health of individual nazis.
like I said… only reason I’m not okay with that photo… I know a guy I’d rather not like to see bombed in pest control… y’know? And for the record, I knew it was a Lancaster. knew a guy who built “museum grade” 1/4scales for very-local airshows (think count fairs and kids at schools. they were all R/C, mind. Those were beautiful. Even better was the ‘kiddie scale’ b-25… that he’d open up and let the kids go inside and go to town… it was scaled so it would ‘feel’ full-sized. Yes. He’d disable the engines, but the control surfaces all worked. Like handing the kids crack-laced sugar.)
But. the jokes… the hellfire missile we’re talking about has blades that spring out on it. probably a billion+ R&D racket there…
That’s what we’ve got that new flying ginsu munition for!
All the precision bombs lack with infinitely more agony for the unfortunate target of basically being slap chopped at terminal velocity.
Somebody needs to deep fake Billey Mays selling these things as the “GinsuChop.”
“Now with AutoChop action, no need to hurt your wrist slap-chopping Nazis!”
“….but wait, there’s more, all in the next five minutes, and get the special limited edition Hello Kitty ‘Hug Me’ nose art Free”
“And we’re not done yet!! Buy now, and you’ll receive not one, but Two GinsuChop™️ missiles. And if you add the SuperChop delux launcher kit, we’ll add another Four!”
“All statements void where prohibited…”
What are the differences in policy prescriptions between your average Texan Republican and your average Nazi?
There’s not a punchline here.
Well, Texas Republicans hate women, LGBTQ, immigrants, people that look like immigrants, the young (but already born), the old (they’re too expensive to keep alive), the educated, leftists/liberals, people that are any religion but Christianity, the poor, and sometimes Jews.
Nazis hate women, LGBTQ, immigrants, people that look like immigrants, the young (but already born), the old (they’re too expensive to keep alive), the educated, leftists/liberals, people that follow any religion but Christianity, the poor, and always Jews.
