This kid:
If I were him… Totally worth it.
I’d pay his bail
Not all heroes wear capes. Thank you, young man, for your courage to tackle this idiot.
Well that was rude. don’t know why they gave him 2 days.
they almost never punish the bullies.
Spud, who was recording on his Ray-Ban Meta smartglasses, walked down the hallway by the main entrance while stating his support for ICE and law enforcement.
Of course the bootlicker was wearing meta glasses.
Maybe they’re not so bad if we get to see more fascists get hit in 4k.
Didn’t the kid (Spud) also spout off about “school code”?
I don’t know any schools that let you video record in a school without consent. Dude is wearing a recording device as glasses and did not get consent from anyone in the school. That’s against school code, bruuuuuuuuuuuh.
The article says Spud did get one day of in school suspension for recording in the school. He also complained others were also recording. Maybe if spud had not posted the video online he spills not have been caught.
I remember visiting the teens center at a local library. I saw a bit of nerd merch I thought was really cool, so I went to take a picture of it, and the librarian there was on me in a flash to stop photography. Recording protection is a real thing when it matters.
Spud th chud?
They gave my hero a couple of days off school as a reward, gotta love it.
Hopefully he got
paidfree 100s for those days offPunching a Nazi should be able to get you at least passing grade for history classes.
Also phys ed, philosophy & ethics, and physics
It’s more than a worrying amount of people take away from history class
I bet more than a few teachers started giving him apples.
Punch a nazi, get 2 days off going to school full of nazis. Nice.
Also: The nazi kid’s name is Spud. Bro is a literal potato.
I was wondering what the other guys parents thought of their kid. Then I saw the guy is 18 and clearly trying to do the shit stirring influencer grift.
Went ahead a blocked him on all the platforms I had accounts for.

We must not look at goblin men,
We must not buy their fruits:
Who knows upon what soil they fed
Their hungry thirsty roots?
Their offers should not charm us, Their evil gifts would harm us.
Goddamn, a fucking Goblin Market reference. I fucking love this website.
Spud also has a blue Twitter checkmark. If it walks holding signs like a Nazi and quacks on a Nazi-owned platform it pays to use…
“I stand for my beliefs,” Spud said after the two were separated. “I’m going to peacefully stand here and support my beliefs. I support ICE and law enforcement,” Spud said.
“You can go peacefully f–k yourself!” the student who punched Spud yells.
What a legend.
“That’s against school code. No swearing in the school,” Spud responds.
And what a weasel.
It’s funny how they always support rules and laws when they benefit them, but ICE breaking the constitution multiple times per day isn’t an issue.
fascists don’t believe in law, they believe in power
Weaponized decency, it’s a tool to them not an ideal.
Don’t forget they recorded minors without consent for 40 seconds.
This depends on the state laws. You have no reasonable right to privacy in a public setting in most states and schools are considered public locations. There is usually paperwork at the beginning of school that a parent signs that says something along those lines. Now when it comes to minor filming another minor, that adds another whole layer to it. But what could happen is someone could go on insta and request a takedown of the video if they felt they were filmed inappropriately.
Schools aren’t full public settings, but limited public forums. First and Fourth Amendment protections are much lower, for example.
And, yes, student expectations of privacy are lower, but a lot of things (like filming other students) are restricted for safety and to avoid “substantial disruption” of the learning environment. It isn’t legally justified by them being minors. Filming minors in public is generally legal.
This kid would be in trouble for violating school rules around filming (or laws against stalking or something, but that doesn’t apply here).
Legally, however, it could be argued that if his IG or tiktok or whatever is monetized, he’s filming for commerical purposes, which would require permits/releases, but that’s not what they’re focusing on here, either.
And that’s not getting into potential FERPA violations and the like. Anyway, schools are an odd space, legally.
On Tuesday – after the district’s four-day weekend – school officials spoke with Spud and gave him a one-day in-school suspension (ISS) for video recording in the school.
Are there laws about needing consent to film minors?
Conservatism 101: rules for thee, not for me.
Absolutely prototypical Grima Wormtongue guy. Would bet money he wants to get into politics he is probably shaping his career path after Charles Kirk.
Worth
Becoming a living “punch the nazis” meme.
No other prize can top that.
Modern day Indiana Jones, but like, not Shia or whatever the last one was.
If I was duders parents that’d be two days of pizza and soda and a informative talk about how permanent records are bullshit.
Harvard should roll out the red carpet for this legend! I think he’s submitted a flawless application essay.
He’d have to have tried date-raping someone first. Harvard has standards to uphold, don’t you know.
Are they bull shit?
Pretty much yeah. Like if you burn a school down or catch felony charges (Homey woulda got a misdemeanor if anything and a slap on the wrist punishment if it did go to trial.) thats a whole other thing, but popping a dude in the jaw? You aren’t losing your shot at MIT or Yale or whatever.
You need to know that though. I disclosed a suspension I didn’t need to and got a rejection letter from my dream school, which was super interested in me until after they called me to ask about it. The rejection was dated the same day as the phone call, so I’m pretty sure that’s it, because they’d already separately sent two people an hour and a half to sell me on the school.
The suspension was for going to breakfast with my carpool buddy on her first day back in school, after her grandfather died. On the way in, she started hyperventilating and saying she couldn’t go in that day and having her first experience with death, so we went to a diner instead. We got sandwiches and she talked about her grandfather for an hour, then she was calm enough to go into school. If we’d explained it to any of the adults in our lives, they’d have been fine with it, but we lied about it and got the minimum punishment for skipping school once it all came out (she folded). I didn’t realize that it wasn’t on my school record, so I included it on my college applications.
If I’d gone there, I probably wouldn’t have studied abroad, which later enabled me to immigrate to Germany, so I’m not too upset about it anymore, but it sucked at the time
Why the fuck would you ever narc on yourself?
I disclosed my history accurately because I am comfortable with my choices and if I lose out on something because of them, I can accept that.
I stay happy with myself that way, which is more valuable to me than a specific school.
There’s zero advantage to ever do that, you can only be happy narcing on yourself?
There’s not zero advantage to honesty, my friend.
This happened in Seattle, proud of that.
The 206 represents!
I got banned from Reddit for saying punching nazis is a form of self-defense.
We as a society should not tolerate the intolerant.
Punch a Nazi and get two days off of school. Sounds like a clear win.

“Literal torture and abuse” by “radical pacifist type liberals” huh?
What in the psyop are you trying to pull there, Jerry?
There was a whole dialogue about “is it OK to punch nazis” in like 2016. Most libs in my life, including a college professor were very against punching nazis. I’m certain any comment section outside of Lemmy is full of libs going “You can’t just assault people because of their opinions, that makes you just as bad as nazis”.
20 years ago I might have said you shouldn’t punch a kid for saying Nazi shit, because he doesn’t understand what he is saying and is probably just being edgy. By 2016 I was pretty on board with punching Nazis. In 2026, while I still would not punch a child because I am an adult, that’s about as far as I will go with that statement. Kid did good.
Yeah, I’ve been writing about this idiocy since almost thirty years. Fighting evil doesn’t make you just as bad as evil. Using that “logic”, we were wrong to bomb the hell out of the Nazis and shoot them in Europe. We were “bad” to do so? I don’t think so. It’s idiotic to think that. In fact, it’s an utter betrayal of the enlightenment values amongst which we gained the idea of nuance under the law. It portrays a philosophy devoid of any actual thought, relying simply on mindless knee-jerk reactions.
That’s pretty much what’s happening right now in France. I hope we get through this kicking more fascist asses, hopefully once Lyon remember its fucking history.
When your opinion is ethnic cleansing, no, using violence against that doesn’t make you as bad as the Nazis. Stop race hate by any means necessary. (Not saying that’s your stance, just my 2 cents to that dumbass argument)

It’s stuff you made up in your head to push your position/narritive.

Calling you out for posting made up nonsense broadly attacking a group you frequently disparage is not vagueposting, that’s very direct. Even if you believe your prejudices truly are representative enough of the whole to warrant being shared, which no, don’t try and dismiss their criticism by reframing what they’ve said as something you can object to. That’s not what they were doing, and what you’re doing is transparent.

The school also offered Spud a “safety plan” in response to online threats he has received, but Spud said he declined the plan.
Of course he has, if a troll behaves they cannot troll people!
Administration: “Okay, potato… err… Spud. Here’s our suggestion: Don’t support murder and internment of minority groups. Especially publicly. It’s likely to make people angry at you and may be dangerous.”
Potato: “No that’s my only hobby”
I think its more simple of a safety plan for someone named spud.
Something like, just shut the fuck up, that is it"
He accepted the consequences. We all heard it.
Spud, who has over 60,000 followers on Instagram, posted the 47-second video to his social media profiles on Instagram, X and TikTok later that evening.
This kid sounds like the ultimate little piece of shit. I hope he and his followers grow out of it, but he’ll probably make a bunch of money and be offered a senior position in the federal government. Which won’t prove him right, though he’ll think it does.
I hope the cops are keeping an eye on him, because by the time he hits his college years he’s going to be trying to slip unidentified powders into women’s drinks at the bar.
This is exactly the kind of person who becomes a cop. ACAB.
This is the reality we live in.
