I don’t know if anyone here realized this but the font in question here is made by Fredrick Brennan who is probably best known as the founder of 8chan
i like… have complicated feelings on the guy. on the one hand, it's important to congratulate him on realizing the harm his actions did and working to undo all that. on the other he did years of harm that has yet to be undone and might never be undone. and everyone only gets so much grace. i'm glad he realized all his online friends were nazis and stopped hanging out with them, but on the other it's hard to trust the judgement of someone who hung out with nazis for years.
I think it's definitely necessary to accept people who did bad things if they truly change and realize the problems they've caused. That applies not just to people who hang out with Nazis but also actual Nazis. When you get out of a far right group, you basically lose all your friends at once and if there's nothing else to go back to, it will make people think twice before going that step even if they're ready for it.
100%
You were a nazi your whole life but now you’ve been fighting nazis for years, we gonna trash you or what? Definitely shouldn’t.
Welcome people to the light!
All of Google's fonts are manufacturing consent.
How so
google, as a corporation, has been pushing us all to move a particular way for years. it's most obvious in the YouTube recommendations algorithm which pushes right wing shit. their fonts platform just gives them more control over the entire web instead of just acting as an index.
Can you elaborate more?
Do you have specific questions or do you just want people to talk for you?
Looks like a historical Americana version of Fraktur. In case the original wasn't Nazi enough

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.
