This isn't the 1980s where the only source of news was corporate owned propaganda networks; there isn't an excuse for ignorance at this point. Jack Black chooses to support nazis. He is a nazi. That is his active choice.

I picked a famous complex and nuances nazi, so it seemed apt.
If jack 'those subhuman palis need to just shut up and die' black wanted to be compared to someone less nazi like maybe he should be a nazi.
Yeah, Hitler was a vegan, genuinely loved dogs, and was once in love with painting.
Much nuance. Many complex. Totally excuses all the other stuff.
I'm sorry the cool stoner dude that never mentally aged past 13 turned out to be a genocidal nazi. It truly is a loss to all humanity.
He's a zionist. It sucks he hid being a nazi like that for so long, and I can understand wanting to mourn, but, he's not someone anyone should still idolize or respect.
That's primarily why most people on lemmy that critically support the CCP post; to get people to realize their reflexive EvIlCHiNaMeNcOmMiEs bad is influenced by the propaganda they've been consuming for decades.
Its a democratic state made up of more people than the entirety of North America and Europe combined. There is no magic brainwashing power that exists in any version of our reality that affects 1.4 billion humans perfectly. So either they're not people or maybe most of them genuinely enjoy their country and the good it's managed to do for them.
Oh and since this is ml and facts can be said; the uighur population isn't under going genocide. We know what a 21st century genocide looks like in a fascist state. The few thousand (out of tens of millions) arrested and allowed reeducation for legitimately going to Afghanistan and becoming terrorists does not a genocide make.
Do you have a five year old phone or CPU? Congrats, you have the same performance of Chinese chips. Except you paid 10x more
After the train run on you by democrats...
No, we don't. Apple proprietary nonsense isn't worth the metal it's made of.
Vigilantism is just a sign that government has become too corrupt to deal with problems effectively. It can be good or evil, it can be effective or a complete nightmarish excuse to get rid of hated minorities or people the majority simply fell out of favor with.
But if you're a victim under that corrupt government, it's the only solution you have, so its hard not to cheer. No one is shedding tears for torched tesla's in dealerships or the dead ceo Saint Luigi was framed for killing.
Its just harder to trust and justify clout chasers attacking essentially random people they themselves labeled with a crime that no one can reasonably defend themselves against.

I addressed your points. There aren't larger forces at play. He supports nazis. He is a nazi. Maybe his friends are nazis and he wants to just go with the flow. Maybe he works for nazis. Maybe he believes his contract holders are nazis so he thinks he has to be a Nazi.
None of that matters. He's a nazi even if all of that is true.
