Be The Woman Whacking The Nazi With A Handbag

[Soph0571]

"Furious at the sight of fascists marching through her town, Danura Danielsson whacks a neo-nazi with her handbag during a demonstration by the Nordis Reich Party in Vaxjo, Sweden on April 13,1985. Danielsson's mother had been sent to the Auschwitz concentration camp during World War II and survived."

We all need to be this

Absolutely Splendid!

[samnsara]

1. way to go!!!

[CatMor]

2. We all need more like her...Bravo

[Fritz Walter]

3. I'm not sure this tactic would work now

My first instinct is to say "put a brick or large rock in the handbag first." But,...

Fast-forward to recent counter-demonstrations here, where violence against white-nationalists, neo-Nazis and others gets twisted around, with the counter-protesters being labeled as AntiFa and worse. Striking out in rage lowers you to their level and makes it that much harder to achieve victory.

5. Yes, Fox and Limbaugh would call her "antifa" and the base would believe

Fox and Limbaugh would lie about her and the base would believe them.
Our main fight is against rightwing propaganda and the rightwing lying media machine.

12. So a middle aged white working class woman can be antifa?😱😱😱

[ProfessorGAC]

35. Put A Brick In The Bag

Let Rushdumb call it whatever he wishes
I call it "enough now"!
I am not taking this "civil war" crap without pushing back!
Fuck these Nazi morons!
They want a fight?
I don't think they've thought through what it means to start a fight with smart people!

[CaptYossarian]

39. Never mind the brick.

A nice army surplus flamethrower would do the trick. It works just as well with KKK sheet wearers too.

[MarvinGardens]

43. Why is AntiFa bad?

It is short for Antifascist. I am antifascist.

[2naSalit]

4. They need to be marginalized out of existence.

[Hekate]

40. Born in 1947-- I thought they HAD been marginalized out of existence. The lessons of WWII learned...

Great progress had been made in civil rights, women's rights, and science. The pathetic remnants of the troglodyte adherents of slavery and naziism banished to dank caves out of the light of common day, still there but hardly to be reckoned with on a large scale.

Then the GOP went completely toxic, the Voting Rights Act was overturned, and we got Trump.

Albert Camus' "The Plague" comes to mind: the great evil overcome, but not eradicated for all time; still lingering in overlooked and forgotten corners, waiting to break out again.

6. How hard is it to say Nazis are bad

Apparently for Republicans and Trump it is very hard. For folks like Danura Danielson, its easy.

10. Daniela is my hero for the day. She not only talked the talk, but walked the walk.

[Ilsa]

7. Too bad there weren't a few bricks in her bag.

It's a great picture, great meme.

I wonder where the neo-nazi is now?

9. A brave Florida woman attempted to stop a shooter at a school board meeting

by hitting him with her purse a few years ago:
https://www.google.com/amp/s/abcnews.go.com/amp/Health/MindMoodNews/school-board-shooting-ginger-littleton-risked-attack-gunman/story%3fid=12403574

"Some would call it crazy, others would say it's stupid, but there's no question that Ginger Littleton's attempt to hinder a gunman's attack on her co-workers by hitting him her purse was downright brave.

When Clay Duke, a 56-year-old resident of Panama City, Fla., pulled a gun at a school board meeting Tuesday afternoon, he ordered Littleton and a few other women to leave the room. But she didn't feel she could leave her fellow board members at Duke's mercy: A surveillance video shows her sneaking back into the room and attempting to knock the gun out of Duke's hand with a swat of her purse.

"I had a choice. Leaving and feeling that something bad was about to happen, and living with myself if something did, and I turned back ... and they were all sitting there lined up like ... sitting ducks. I could either walk away thinking something bad was going to happen and try to live with myself or I could try to do something to divert and delay. My bag was what I had,"Littleton told ABC News' George Stephanopoulos." (More)

20. That photo has been photoshopped badly

I wonder why, but automatically don’t trust it.

[zipplewrath]

29. And I wonder why

Here's the original

https://mediadrumworld.com/2019/02/05/harrowing-photos-of-d-day-landings/

[Bernardo de La Paz]

38. Thx. Here it is

[Bernardo de La Paz]

23. That photo looks like it was "photoshopped". Multiple conflicting cues.

Note to youngsters: photographic manipulation is as old as photography, almost 200 years.

[lunatica]

33. Look at response #29

The poster shows the original.

Stalin used to have photos changed, airbrushing people right out of them.

[Lucky Luciano]

41. I don't get it. What is this? nt

[Qutzupalotl]

14. That's just adding incel to injury.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

19. "incel" means "incelibate". Did you proofread your post at all?

[Qutzupalotl]

21. Incel means involuntarily celibate.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

25. Yes, I flipped the sense by mistake. But the usual phrase is "add insult to injury".

I have no idea what being a nazi has to do with incelibacy.

(note: I did proofread my post but still made the mistake. Thanks for pointing it out.)

[Qutzupalotl]

26. The modern form, Neo-Nazis and Skinheads

often refer to themselves as incels. Think Pepe and his minions.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

28. I've never heard them refer to themselves that way, or any others refer to them that way.

Where do you get this novel theory. "often"?

Do you have a link discussing this previously hidden link?

When I search nazi incel nothing connects them the way you have.

[Qutzupalotl]

31. You're overthinking this.

It was a joke.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

34. I get the "joke". But the connection you claim does not seem to exist between nazis & incels.

Sure, there are "incels" who are nazis like there are bakers and candle-stick makers who are incels. But "often refer to themselves as incels"?

I thought I had missed something obvious in the culture, so I got curious to try to repair the gap in my cultural understanding.

[Qutzupalotl]

36. You're still overthinking an offhand comment.

But if you want to see how many NeoNazis and Skinheads are incels, and call themselves and each other that, hang out on Reddit a while.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

37. OK, thanks. . . . nt

[Hassin Bin Sober]

22. I'm all for injuring the INCEL.

[lunatica]

24. It looks like your iPhone chose the word incel for you

instead of insult. Dang these modern gadgets!

[Qutzupalotl]

27. No, I was trying to make a joke.

[lunatica]

30. I hate it when that happens!

But yeah, I get it now.

[deurbano]

46. You succeeded!

[demigoddess]

15. We all need to be this!

A good reason to always have a rock in your purse.

[Scurrilous]

16. K&R

[Hortensis]

17. Be that person by voting against the resurgence of right-wing evils.

Ms. Danielsson clearly understands commitment to fighting.

Either the Republican nominee or the Democratic nominee will become our next president.

[lunatica]

18. I hope she was thoughtful enough to

Put a brick or two in her handbag.

[magicarpet]

44. Yes brick,.. I was about to mention a brick or two in that large anti-Nazi purse.

Make sure you bop him in the head !

[Initech]

32. Fuck Nazis! Whacking Nazis is the patriotic thing to do!
