There's a neo-Nazi at my school

If you only want peace, then being aggressive isn't the way to get it. You will not get anyone's respect at 16 for anything, especially when it comes to arguing with high school neo-nazis wannabes. All you will do is promote and generate more hate by your strong opposition to their ideals.

Hate groups and such are rather "peaceful" until some prideful person decides to argue with them, giving them something to direct their hate at... it fires them up, gives them a purpose. You will NOT achieve tolerance by forcing it upon people. They will learn that it doesn't matter that much as they grow... who are you to teach them? Why do you think that they'll listen?

People will not choose to understand, that's the hard choice. It's much easier to hate, and people go down that path.

Anyhow... point being... you are only promoting more hate by fighting this battle, religion and the ideas that revolve around it are way too imprinted in people's heads for them to be changed by anyone other than the person himself.

This is not a battle worth fighting, there are better causes out there. You are not a missionary of Judaism.

...and man, I'm not trying to hate on ya, I actually admire your idealism... but, you will learn that it's just not worth it... there are so many better causes out there. Stay away from religion, live and let live... even if they decide to live through hate, that's their thing... you do your thing, they do their thing.

I'm Jewish myself (never practicing, but I've always seen it more as a heritage and cultural thing), and I've lived through ridiculous amounts of persecution, especially for this modern age... and believe me, Anti-semitism will never die.

It's nice to have Israel there to escape from it though.

 

This should have been posted in The Whiners forum.

 

No man, this is one of the only truly good threads in the Hippies forum, and it fits here perfectly.

It's a classic example of conflicting beliefs within a person.

 

You're being sarcastic, right?

 

Nope, I like this thread.

 

Well, sure. It's got the makings of a phenomenal thread. A thread for the History books. It's got Judaism, Neo-Nazism, the history of Nazism, tattoos sprawled across bare backs on a girl who looks, by judging of the quarter profile of her face, likes to get down and scream obscenities in a moshing crowd and then reveals the tattoo of her choice, by which, I'm sure she'll regret getting when she's 64. She won't get any birthday greetings or bottles of wine from me. Because I won't care when she's 64.

 

I think Paul regrets looking like an old woman at 64, but that's beyond the point.

 

Well, it's besides the point, but if he had the same hair that he had while he was married to Linda and in Wings, I'm sure the 80s look would have killed him now. He'd have a hard time getting laid by 23 year old dazzling super models. His future old hag look is what killed The Beatles. John would have known. Because Yoko, the Japanese witch, had told him so. She saw it while gazing in the half-a-crystal ball of hers.

 

wow...this really got out of hand and i made an ass of myself.
i was kind of hoping a few people would give me advice and that would be the end of it... oh well..

 

Dude, I apologize if I offended you.

All I am saying is that I avoid people who are religious.

It is one thing to be born with a Jewish/Christian/Buddhist or whatever heritage, but it is another thing to really take your religion seriously, and really believe in it.

As far as high school Neo Nazis are concerned, I bet if you really dug into this person's past, you would see they are a seriously messed up person.

Most modern Neo Nazis are brought up in racist homes, often abused, and very often end up incarcerated and part of prison gangs due to petty crimes like burglary etc.

I think this person is all ready being punished enough, having been indoctrinated into an anti-social, highly unacceptable way of life, that will virtually guarentee they are not very successful in life.

What is going to happen, is this "Nazi" is going to remain an isolated loner, accept for maybe a core group of misfit friends, will more than likely never find gainful employment, and will probably be involved in some type of crime at one point or another.

Modern Neo Nazis fuck themselves up enough.

I totally understand your feelings of hatered toward a Nazi wannabe.

All I can say is, this person was raised to be a fucking loser.

Next time you see this person, tell them you have nothing but love for them, and that you feel sorry that they have so much hate.

Kill 'em with kindness man, kill'em with kindness.

It will be hard for her mind to digest when a Jewish dude says he has nothing but love for her, will catch her off guard and fuck with her head.

 

yea and thats wen you pull the gun out

 

if you dont feel like murdering this Patty Hitler, and I hope you dont, ignore her forever and leave her alone with her silly little ideas and laugh thinking at what will happen to her when and if she'll start socializing with real nazis.

 

where in particular, sir ?

 

Or ignorance finds it's own way to the damn end.

 

Everywhere outside of Israel.

Not in the last couple of years though, I guess I intimidate people too much now.

 

You are the Ultimate Intimidator!

 

Yeah you're right man. Don't worry, I'm not too offended. Just the idea of neo Nazis scares me...I guess Nazism as opposed to just anti-Semitism is what is so scary about it, how its associated with Hitler's Nazis. But whatever, she's just a wannabe.

Nobody at school really likes her and she's barely passing. If she's with a 34 year old, things with her family must have been totally fucked. I really do feel a lot of love for criminals actually, and I really feel strongly that everyone is a good person. But it seemed so hard to see a Nazi as an actual person. I guess if I'm hateful to her, I'm no better than a Nazi hating someone for their philosophy.

All I can do is show love which will hopefully show her not to oppose me as a person. She'll probably never learn any different, but it's not my place to punish her for it. She's a miserable person and that's likely motivating her hatred. At first I thought everyone was telling me that what she's doing is okay, but I've realized that anger perpetuates the problem.

All she needs is love.

 

If anybody has a reason to hate that would be me but i put it behind me after it almost cripled me im happy to be standing on my own 2 feet dont hate is all i can say it will hurt you

 

If you don't mind sharing, what were your experiences?

 

what a way 2 be
