None as of yet.
But if people want to keep going with flippant accusations of Nazism in everything they see, then I suspect using this technique to abuse the witch hunt will be the natural next step.
- salvar 9y agoDo you have any examples of people's "flippant accusations of Nazism in everything they see"?
- HeyWolfey 9y agoGoogle "trump is a nazi" and take your pick of any number of Overton window nudging. It's a steady drumbeat of contortions to make the consumer of these outlets see Nazis everywhere. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.sfgate.com/news/amp/Trump-Hitler-Nazi-billboard-Chico-Rouse-Revolt-12256059.php https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.sfgate.com/news/amp/Trump-H... https://amp.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2017/aug/25/donald-trump-nazis-far-right-charlottesville https://amp.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2017/aug/25/donald... http://foreignpolicy.com/2017/08/17/donald-trump-is-a-nazi-sympathizer/amp/ http://foreignpolicy.com/2017/08/17/donald-trump-is-a-nazi-s... http://www.newsweek.com/how-trump-nazis-stole-christmas-promote-white-nationalism-755991?amp=1 http://www.newsweek.com/how-trump-nazis-stole-christmas-prom...
- salvar 9y agoCan you point to an actual example? Telling people to go google something feels like a very wimpy way of dodging requests for citations. Like saying "Go read a book". Edit: Thanks for the edited links. I don't see how discussions about the actions and discourse of the president of the United States support your suggestion that fake Nazi-accusing videos will be used to destroy Silicon Valley careers though.
