I've never supported Hitler

Guy wearing a Hitler 'stache as a "social experiment."

"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

[–] RoidingOldMan@lemmy.world 55 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

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.

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.

[–] null_dot@lemmy.dbzer0.com 102 points 3 days ago (2 children)

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.

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.

[–] Zedd_Prophecy@lemmy.world 25 points 2 days ago (3 children)

This is a man desperate for attention. Now many times when I'm shaving off the winter beard ... I'll end it with the Hitler stache to freAk out the wife..... However it does not leave the house. Why? Because I'd hate to be judged incorrectly by people as an asshole. This guy though? He is begging people to judge because he needs the acknowledgement and attention. Creep.

'It had a wild effect on women'

I suppose "revulsion" counts as a wild effect.

You know he wanted to add "like it's a bad thing" to the end of that sentence.

'It had a wild effect on women'

They used to be disgusted by me when I talked to them, but now they are disgusted by me the moment they see me.

Alex Jones: "Nazis? That's just wrong terminology that the left uses to accuse everyone they don't like of being a nazi! Because they're the haters!"

Grows Hitler mustache.

Alex Hitler: "It's a (nationalist) social experiment! If you call me a nazi, then you're the real nazi!"

For fuck's sake. Why do I still meet people that think they could possibly not be nazis? You're not sure? Really?

They're not time travelers from 1940. They're modern nazis, and this is what they do. He's just another nazi propagandist like limbaugh and kirk, except he's got a fucking HITLER mustache!!!

Jones has been shuffling the ownership of his company behind shells and leading the collections agencies on a merry chase.

It's Texas, so a big chunk of the legal system is politically inclined to drag its heels or implicitly support him. Not surprised to see the case dragging on got years under these terms.

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.

"Hitler was a very kleptocratic, totalitarian, megalomaniacal individual."

Remind you of anyone?

Lex Luther meets Adolf Hitler looks with blue eyes, and they just didn't know what to do. They're like melting.

Self-confidence is everything folks.
If you ever look into the mirror and feel a little silly for any reason, take a deep breath.
At least you're not the clown who thinks Hitler x Lex Luther is attractive to any person.

[–] Serinus@lemmy.world 54 points 3 days ago (4 children)

This is all dog with whistle on top.

It's the same thing as the Elon Nazi salute or speech Stephen Miller just gave echoing Goebbels.

It's explicitly showing support for Nazis with a thin veil of "no u" on top for those who will take an excuse.

Alex Jones is more like Julius Streicher who also sported a pathetic moustache to ingratiate himself with Hitler. Streicher was virulently antisemitic and spouted all kinds of bug eye conspiracies but even other Nazis thought he was little more than an annoying clown.
