TW: Nazi imagery, Anti-semitism, Fucking Assholeish "Feminists", Hipster "Feminism"

They've apologized (though images are still up?):

I’ve suspended my queue because this conversation has gotten really inappropriate and I don’t wish to continue it. As a Mizrahi Jew who lost family members to the Holocaust, I apologize for one user’s submission and to those who were offended. It was a very stupid mistake that demonstrated an uncharacteristic lapse in judgement.

Yeah, a huuuuuuge "lapse in judgment."

Uh, anyway, did this "joke" start because of that whole Ryking thing?

That's what I thought. He is still ablooblooblooing about "misandry". I didn't really think this could get much grosser than his trying to get unknowablewoman in trouble at the clinic she escorts at, buuuuut...

I follow unknowablewoman, so I've been seeing a lot of it play out. The Femnazis For Misandry thing initially started out as a joke, but from what I understand, things got out of hand when the flag was posted. I understand what they're trying to get at, but the flag's crossing a line.

They've apologized but immediately followed it up by complaining about how meeeeaaannn everyone was for calling out the fail. They also spend more chastizing the offended commenters than addressing the problem with the flag.

I have no idea who this person is, but that sets off my asshole alarm tbh.

I was pretty sure this was a joke (if in bad taste) in response to the Ryking stuff.

Well, I'm all for giving Ryking a right royal cyber-bollocking, but it'd be good if we kept the real actual Nazis out of it, you know? Swaztikas included.
