    It’s a FUCKING NAZI SALUTE, YOU FECKLESS MILQUETOAST SCUMBAGS.

    How HARD would it have been to write “STEVE BANNON ALSO MAKES NAZI SALUTE AT CONSERVATIVE CONFERENCE”?

    God, this shit makes me so fucking angry.

    The media has been doing this for over a year with a genocide. They’ve been doing it for decades, probably centuries, with racism, imperialism, etc. It’s the job of capitalist media to cover for capitalism, fascism, etc.

    Ofc they’ll do it for a nazi hand gesture.

      Upvote for the video. Reading the headline made me think there was some level of questionable concept for IF it was a nazi salute.

      Watching the video you provided erased all doubt. The headline went soft. It should have been:

      Steve Bannon makes nazi salute gesture at conservative conference because he, and the Trump party are full on going nazi.

      See how MY version leaves no room for second guessing? That’s what they should have wrote.

      Absolutely

      As I said in another post, It’s tiring this tiptoeing around the facts.

      Especially from a Jewish journal. Learning from history, they should know better than pulling punches with Nazism.

    Resembling? Yeah, sure. He also engaged in rhythmical chest expansions resembling breathing, and arrived at the podium by putting one foot in front of the other, in a manner that might be interpreted as walking in some circles…

    For fuck’s sake, the word mincing is driving me fucking insane…
