This kid:
That kid is a fucking hero. I said so on Reddit when it happened, and I'm saying it here now as well. I condone his actions and, if more people did what he did, we would stand a better fighting chance against this loathsome menace currently destroying everything good in the USA and abroad.
While I generally agree that all Nazis must be punched, this can be counterproductive.
Look what's going on in France. A Nazi got into a brawl, died from his wounds, and now he's treated like a fucking national hero. The left in general are portrayed as terrorists.
Don't underestimate how efficient the right is at playing the victim.
It doesn't matter. They're getting what they want. You can play nice and let them have what they want, or you can take some risks, stand for what you believe in, and fight back.
Fighting back against school bullies is also "against the rules."
Fighting back against school bullies is also “against the rules.”
As a kid, I had problems with bullies. Then I grew, trained, and fought back with increasing effectiveness. That ended it, and the suspensions I got along the way were a cost of doing the right thing.
That just means they're not killing enough Nazis.
this can be counterproductive
I see no downsides at all as long as you don't explain why you're doing it and don't get caught.
He accepted the consequences. We all heard it.
"Student" is a funny way to spell "Absolute Gigachad Legend" but OK.
White privilage on full display
I got arrested and charged with "aggravated assault" and nearly expelled for self-defence against a racist bully. I'm not white.
We need more white kids to use their privilage for good
Punch fascists!
It's basically a form of self-defense.
I forget where I read it recently: "the trouble you get in for punching a fascist is less than the trouble you get in for not punching them."
Received a 2-day standing ovation you say?
This kid has done more for his country than most of us here combined. Respect.
Now ban the meta loser for recording students
For me it was the little clap he did before swinging. Gets me every time.
I can't get enough of that either and while all the great memes do the lad justice, I can't help but feel we're all robbed by the way they don't capture the eager, self-satisfied "I can't wait to deliver this L", delicious, audible little clap 😭
If I were him... Totally worth it.
I'd pay his bail
they should give the kid a award not suspension
A kid getting two-day out of school suspension is like a cop getting paid leave. If I were his parent there would be no punishment at home and probably a new game (or Fortnite skins or whatever) of his choice to enjoy on his suspension.
Not all heroes wear capes. Thank you, young man, for your courage to tackle this idiot.
I salute this man.
Okay.
Well that was rude. don't know why they gave him 2 days.
they almost never punish the bullies.
book me for another 2 next wek
New gigachad just dropped
Gyatdam, I'm making magnets of this and posting them everywhere.
