In the World of the High Tech Redneck, the Graybeard is the old guy who earned his gray by making all the mistakes, and tries to keep the young 'uns from repeating them. Silicon Graybeard is my term for an old hardware engineer; a circuit designer. The focus of this blog is on doing things, from radio to home machine shops and making all kinds of things, along with comments from a retired radio engineer, that run from tech, science or space news to economics; from firearms to world events.

How to Tell Antifa From Nazis
It's subtle. From the Babylon Bee - quite possibly the most peculiar satire web site you'll come across. If you haven't seen them, go look around.
That "Nazi" meme never seems to get old, doesn't it? I just wish that everyone who carries that Nazi icon on the tip of their tongue would familiarize him(her)selves with the history of the real National Socialists. Maybe, the term of Nazi would become less of a derogative expression for a political movement that improved people's lives in their own country. But, whatever, have it your way.
Since you bring it up, what bugs me the most about these Antifa moe-rons is they don't have the first clue about what they're talking about. Their definition of Nazi is "anyone I disagree with". They're just thugs hired to beat up people and destroy things.
They can't admit that communists have been historically worse than Nazis because they're communists.
The Nazis pale in comparison to Chairman Mao. Hitler killed around 10 million, (a lazy IIRC - I've seen others blame every death in WWII on Hitler, which is even lazier) while Mao killed closer to 40 million.
Yes, it's good to have that guide handy. One day they'll go to the wrong town.

Thanks for the heads up for Babylon Bee!

Glad you like it. Most people don't quite know how to process the idea of Christian satire.
DeleteApparently blogger ate my sarcasm tags around that first sentence
