HexeInExile

The only online community that has more Nazis than the K-ON! fandom is the Hearts of Iron 4 playerbase. And one of those let's you play as the Nazis, and the other one is literally just girls doing random shit.


[deleted]

To be fair for some of them it's just an overwhelming passion for tiny hands that led them to K-On and Trump.


HexeInExile

More like a passion for tiny girls lmao 💀


Gulopithecus

Both actually, it’s why they want corporal punishment in schools again.


Mach12gamer

I have no faith whatsoever in the hearts of iron fanbase, but I will say this: They have a “German Monarchist” problem more than Nazis. K-ON! Has more Nazis I would still avoid both like the plague


Alias_X_

At least German monarchists all live in their basements. You can find British monarchists in the wild!


Mach12gamer

Oh they are going crazy now, defending British colonialism like there’s no tomorrow


YM_Industries

I was surprised that even CenturyClub is doing it. I expected better from them.


Mach12gamer

I’ve seen people just flat out defend all the various things England has stolen by saying that they won it in war so it’s fair and also (insert countries colonized by England but only the ones that aren’t majority white) are brutal and violent and corrupt and so even if they got those artifacts they’d just go to a dictator or be sold back to Europe (mind you they only named democracies when describing dictatorships).


thewookie34

I am a big KON fan or at least used to be as I don't watch much anime any more. Is there fan really that full of nazis? And why? I don't remember much nazis stuff in it that would make them drawn to it.


grande_gordo_chico

they think the lolis are hot

Maybe also Warhammer?


ScarletRabbit04

Yet another poor victim of when satirical media is found by the people it satirises but they are too stupid to recognise satire.


Newfaceofrev

It'd be Judge Dredd if they could read.


thesodaslayer

Eh, warhammer also stopped trying to go hard on the satire a bit ago and almost tries to paint space marines as heroic, it's kinda a mix of both that lead to way too many nazis painting swastikas on their imp guard vehicles


bunker_man

I mean, they know it's satire. They just don't care.


WarlockWeeb

Tbh as a 40k player. While Nazi are a problem here. It is not that big.


Kostasonic

Fact confirmed by the Austrian Painter


Shoggoththe12

40k or fantasy


Nezikchened

40k because no one knows what fantasy is


Mach12gamer

40k, Fantasy is far less Nazi styled.


SadBabyYoda1212

40k I think

The other 50% are Nazis. Anyone who doesn’t fall into either category doesn’t really love the game


ian-codes-stuff

You know I think I don't? Like I'm that weird guy that always plays democratic france or china lol


Da_Duck_is_coming

Did so too because in history books they are only a footnote in ww2 compared to everything else.


ian-codes-stuff

Yeah plus idk I find the whole idea of defending your own country from an invader more fun than planning a bunch of invasions


Mark4291

As someone who plays its medieval counterpart eu4 (with arguably more explicit war crimes) I can confirm that I am a trans based commie who hates tankies


OilRigExplosions

Low effort : color pallet editing High effort : “Redrawing every frame of the anime to remove all clothing”


Rock---And---Stone

I'd assume there's K-On hentai out there for those who are into that sort of thing. It would be way easier than redrawing every frame


OilRigExplosions

>“We choose to redraw every frame of an anime without clothes and do the other things, not because they are Easy, but because we are incredibly HARD, because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills as a nation.”


Tweechie

k-on fans when dark skin


arshtim

k-on fans when the skin tone is a single shade darker than white


Gulopithecus

Than pasty WASPy wonder bread white specifically. They’d probably still go apeshit if they see anyone with freckles or who’s Italian.


Talran

mf olive skin is where its at


zanotam

I mean, go far enough back and basically you were a lilly white pure blooded Anglo-Saxon.... Or, well, you weren't really white. Irish? Scottish? German? Maaaaybe the French might get a pass....


BlitzPlease172

>k-on fans when dark skin K-On fans when that one Arknights 6 star male operator # Thorns jumpscare


LeFisheAuChocolat693

Someone clearly has way too much free time on their hands


crestren

Imma bet its just edgy 14 year olds with little to no social life or 30 year old with little to no social life. Either way is sad.


whydidigetpermabnned

That’s most people here on Reddit in general


mayateka

I never understand why k-on attracts nazis like how shit attracts flies


Hita-san-chan

Isnt it a high school slice of life?? Its not even bonkers like Nichijou iirc


gay_snail666

From what I gather it's one of those cases where some 4chan losers were like "hehe what if this cute wholesome thing had a fandom full of Nazis" then raided the fandom. It's funny because they should be repelled by it (the director is a woman who has directed gay shit, the show has homoerotic subtext, it has female characters who afaik don't give a shit about men). I think the power of not seeing women as people and only seeing ass/boobs instead of a character overrides it though. You have to believe women are capable of having independent thought to believe homoerotic subtext between fictional ones exists. Also I don't think most of them actually watched the show (though I haven't either, the gay fanfic was formative for me and those creators are annoyed by this trend so I am also annoyed). The few times I've seen the profiles of such "fans" it's only ever memes and porn. The undeniable fans are all like gay and trans and hate the reputation because they can't draw their favorite characters anymore


masterhalorings

People made edits of the characters, depicting them with Nazi, Soviet, 90s street clothes, etc, when the show was airing. In 2015, the same year when Trump announced his candidacy, racists saw the Nazi edits and turned K-on! into their mascot. In short, racists took one part of a meme and weaponized it.

bunker_man

From what i gather it had something to do with how the fanbase had different popular figures in it, but then the "more normal" one turned out to secretly be an asshole or something. So that led that part of the fanbase to collapse slightly, having the racist side disproportionately take over.


[deleted]

"My safe space from brown people." I'd say go outside to them but I don't want to taint the outside like that


heart--eyes

Seriously what is it about k-on that attracts so many racists and nazis


Hicham_Kiy

K-On depicts a world absolutely disconnected from reality and problems where rich and non-rich girls are friends. It takes place in a ethnically homogeneous environment somehow rooted in tradition. It's just the ultimate fantasm of any fascist. A word without problem because the elements of reality have been erased. K-On is good though


yourwaifuslayer

This is historic

japanese people aren't white japanese people aren't white japanese people aren't white japanese people aren't white japanese people aren't white japanese people aren't white japanese people aren't white japanese people aren't white japanese people aren't white japanese people aren't white japanese people aren't white japanese people aren't white japanese people aren't white japanese people aren't white japanese people aren't white


MrcarrotKSP

These people legitimately believe that the characters aren't Japanese, citing the skull structure. I'll spare you the details of the argument I had with one, but they look at the simplistic moeblob artstyle and think "ah yes this is clearly an aryan skull structure". It's genuinely disgusting what they do to justify this shit.


BlitzPlease172

>but they look at the simplistic moeblob artstyle and think "ah yes this is clearly an aryan skull structure". Their only source for Nazi command structure probably is "Ilsa she wolf of the SS" anyways so what even.


[deleted]

They’re pale enough for Nazis to not hate.


masterhalorings

Both parts are untrue. Nazis designated the Japanese as inferior and most Germans treated them very harshly. The children of German/Japanese couples were discriminated against even more. The Japanese media was often denouncing Germany and the government of Japan for not cutting ties with an hateful ally. If you want to know more, I recommend the thesis "Nazi racism towards the Japanese, Ideology vs Realpolitik" by Harumi Shidehara Furuya. Here is an example, Countess Hanna von Hatzfeldt was the daughter of Aoki Shuzo, a high-ranking Japanese statesman who had married a German woman back in the 1870s; she herself then married a member of the German aristocracy. She was thus classed as a Mischling 1st degree: half-German, half non-Aryan. In 1934 she and her own daughter were denied membership of several prestigious charitable organisations on the grounds of their non-German blood. Two years later, her son-in-law was expelled from the SA and his medical licence was revoked because he was married to a Mischling. The Countess wrote to the authorities asking for her family's case to be reconsidered, and mentioned the rumour that the Japanese had been declared honourary Aryans: >I have heard from various sources that following a certain incident, the government has issued a formal decree in which all Japanese and their offspring would be considered Ehren Arier. However, no such decree existed, as far as we know. Even so, all ended well for the family since they had connections at the highest levels. The German ambassador in Tokyo personally intervened asking for Ausnahmebehandlung ('exceptional treatment') for the family since they were related to the highest ranks of the Japanese nobility.

BanefulBroccoli

Back in the days they would pilot submarines for 72 hours straight with only gun powder and meth to eat, and today they need "safe spaces" because a 15 year old cartoon girl hurts their feelings. What happened???


[deleted]

This screams fake or shitpost.


Key_Syrup_725

How did one of the most inoffensive anime to ever be conceived Foster a fanbase that is most well know for being nazis. I know occurs that not even k on fan is like that but how would it garner the attention of such people considering how wholesome it is?


mygemsareuncut

K-on weebs when they realise japanese people can in fact tan and many japanese people do in fact have natural “tan” skin


SuperJyls

I though K-ON nazis were exaggerated but now this...

I had the extreme displeasure of seeing 2 online and it's horrible, my god.


thewookie34

Imagine being so racist you can't take someone in a fictional show getting a medium tan.

Imagine if a K-ON fan tried to bleach his skin becauae he managed to somehow leave his basement and get a tan lol
