Nazi meme = Homophobia / ANAL acronym / Anti-Fascism ? 

@RadicalGraffiti This is great example of how it CAN work AND NOT WORK at the same time...
and comments I think reflect the usage - which I'll list below to help realise how it's not clear or can seem clear while leaving it vague/borderline in other areas...

● can seem "inspiring"; like to revenge or shaft/fuck the opposing side

However this could be while using / leveraging the clearly ANAL acronym and graphic of 'up the arse' (somewhat clearly depicted- even if it is also shown as a breaking up of Nazis).

●Then making fun of Nazis IF it's true they wouldn't like to be called gay or bunch of homosexuals... so indeed it's making fun out of their straight/fascist sexuality (again if it's true Nazis / fascists don't tolerate homosexual people in their group or outside of it).

● Esmoustachu pasLeTempsDeCirer @ciredutempsEsme said it well to ask " could you explain to me how you see that as brillant first ?
(I think my answer will be related to yours)"... and Antifa International @antifaintl did an ok job to explain but could be a bit more expanded (according to me and welcome it).

Overall using this against that is already risky / troublesome and I'm not even sure why I like it exactly but as a list for me;

-maybe the humour
-maybe the graphic
-maybe the context of which group it's insulting and how it's done

All above could be interesting...

● And exactly the difficulty with these memes is no personal person to represent it often, so hard to "...take this up with the creator of the meme."

And that's the +/- of memes in general.

I concluded also that:

● 'Anti Fascists' who find homophobia funny Are Losers ( @RadicalGraffiti )

And...

The association between anal penetration and the fact of being a "loser" spreads toxic bias against anal sex.
This is why I can't like this sticker.
This is sad because antifascism is obviously necessary. But I prefer to keep my antifascism sex-positive, please

●Finally I think the poll was a good idea and could be done again to check more people's opinion... was previously by Esmoustachu pasLeTempsDeCirer @ciredutempsEsme

" It seems i misunderstood this as homophobic. Can you confirm ? "

? % Yes it's reappropriation
? % Non, it's homophobic
? % That's misleading at minimum
? % Other
