I’m know we live in a bubble online but if irl people are trying to make excuses about Tesla man saying “ohh he’s autistic”, “it’s fine he was just whacked out on K” or “ it’s just a Roman salute”. SHAME THEM, Shame them to the point they crawl back into their holes. - ThreadSky

I've seen a lot of people say "then you do it and tag your boss and work"

People are always like how did mustache man take over? This was how, with complacency and excuses. If you have 1 Yahtzee and 500 people making excuses for them then you have 501 Yahztees.

I don’t have the white privilege to hide when an extermination happens, there’s a reason mainstream history never talks about marginalized people during that time, because they exterminated us first

I blocked a historian on Facebook when he was arguing it wasn’t a Nazi salute. He is Jewish. WTF dude? This man has showed us who he is for years. Pay attention.

Right? I can’t even and the mansplaining. He works with my husband who is also a history teacher but it will just have to be weird for hubs at work. I am putting up bullshit boundaries.

The best response I've seen is "I completely understand that you may be this ignorant, but I am not"

Those things can be true AND he can be a piece of shit white supremacist who bought the presidency.

As an autistic person, it is SO ableist for those people to suggest autism makes us do racist salutes.

He is a fascist and happens to also be autistic.

They need to stop excusing fascism and stop being ableist.
