Second time in two days?

We need to increase macing rotations. That's just not enough.

[–] ShinkanTrain@lemmy.ml 90 points 1 month ago (3 children)

They problem with macing nazis is that eventually you run out of mace

[–] NakariLexfortaine@lemm.ee 63 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Then we need to switch over to old school maces.

It just gets blunter the more you bludgeon.

[–] imPastaSyndrome@lemm.ee 7 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Yeah isnt a mace used for anti armor? Because of the bludgeoning factor? I mean don't get me wrong getting grazed with that would hurt but getting grazed of the sharp side of a sword would hurt more... Hmm...

I suppose either would be pretty damn deadly when it really comes down to it if you get a solid Hit. Though not as easy to conceal as mace

A flanged mace is the common counter to chainmail, circa 13th-century European armored combat. A curved sword is better for unarmored or those in animal hide like leather.

A mace (general) is a club with a head, which packs a more diffuse wallop than a bladed weapon or a spiked weapon. Spikes on a mace (such as a morning star) can help to focus and to punch through armor.

Not to be confused with a spiked flail, in which there's a chain between the handle and the head (a spiked ball or flanged star, like the one held by the Witch-king of Agmar) The chain helps circumvent shields, but it becomes very easy for the flailman to hit himself. Kinda like nunchaku.

Swords need cared for, sharpened and all that.

A metal ball on a rod is a metal ball on a length of metal that can crack bone. Ball comes off, I still got a metal rod.

Put some little blades on the mace! They won't stay sharp for long, but the first few Nazis you hit with it will have a really bad day

[–] NakariLexfortaine@lemm.ee 4 points 1 month ago

Hey, dullness could be a benefit! Make for a nice tenderizer.

[–] imPastaSyndrome@lemm.ee 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yeah it sounds heavy as fuck. And also like there's a safe place to grab. I'm like a sort. There's no safe place on a sword there's also no safe place with chemical weapons...

So back to Bear mace.

[–] itslilith@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 month ago

Grabbing a sword to control it was more common than you think! Especially when wearing gloves, but a skilled fighter can hold on to the flat of a blade with the bare hand, and usually not get hurt

[–] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 1 month ago

against an unarmored opponent basically anything is a decent weapon, literally just a rock is fairly deadly, especially if you throw it accurately.

[–] Juice@midwest.social 3 points 1 month ago

Just have to shift from disposable mace, a spray can full of pepper spray; to a reusable mace, a long ass handle with a big fuck off spikey ball at the end

[–] frezik@midwest.social 2 points 1 month ago

Nonsense. Grow some good peppers, make some extract, and put it in a spray bottle. Mace can literally grow in a pot out back.

[–] zib@lemmy.world 33 points 1 month ago

You'd think Communists of all people would understand that macing Nazis is a community effort.

[–] YtA4QCam2A9j7EfTgHrH@infosec.pub 94 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Make sure Nazis know that you pour milk in your eyes for mace. It also works for itchy eyes and all sorts of other things. Use raw milk for best results. Only works for Nazis.

[–] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 month ago

I hear milkshakes are actually the best defense. It's actually best to milkshake Nazi's before they get maced.

[–] Soulg@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Does it not actually work? I'm curious now

Only if you are a nazi. Otherwise, just use saline or water if you aren’t.

[–] AI_toothbrush@lemmy.zip 87 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Me and the communists disagreeing about the ideal economic system but agreeing on macing nazis

[–] Not_mikey@slrpnk.net 84 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I mean you probably are a communist to this guy. If you mace him and he can't insult you based on your race / ethnicity then he'll probably just call you a communist.

[–] butwhyishischinabook@lemmy.world 25 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yeah but also I'm sure Obama, Biden, and Kamala are all commies also lol

[–] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yeah that's kinda the level of nuance right now. So I guess we're all commies this day.

[–] frezik@midwest.social 8 points 1 month ago

Good news! That also means you get to mace this nazi.

[–] AI_toothbrush@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 month ago

Yeah im a a cishet white male so probably he would just default to communist

[–] frezik@midwest.social 67 points 1 month ago (1 children)

First they maced the nazis, and I said nothing, because fuck nazis.

[–] Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 45 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Then they maced the Nazis again, and I said nothing because I was too busy laughing

[–] frezik@midwest.social 17 points 1 month ago (1 children)
[–] Crashumbc@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

What!?!

If Friday the Thirteenth can get 13 (14?) sequels, this should be good for double digits!

[–] bdonvr@thelemmy.club 33 points 1 month ago

My turn tomorrow

[–] PyroNeurosis@lemmy.blahaj.zone 24 points 1 month ago

Mr Clean there's not looking so good. Better mace him again for good measure.

[–] KomfortablesKissen@discuss.tchncs.de 20 points 1 month ago (1 children)

What do you say to a man with 2 black eyes/who got maced twice?

AnswerNothing, he has already been told twice.

[–] Track_Shovel@slrpnk.net 10 points 1 month ago

Holy shit, I love this

[–] Denjin@lemmings.world 17 points 1 month ago

Again! Again!

[–] Thteven@lemmy.world 15 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Huh, I wonder what the common denominator was.

[–] ByteOnBikes@slrpnk.net 5 points 1 month ago

Self-professed Nazi: "Why does everyone keep macing me?"

[–] ramenshaman@lemmy.world 13 points 1 month ago (1 children)
[–] Warl0k3@lemmy.world 27 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Not a communist, presumably

[–] koper@feddit.nl 6 points 1 month ago

Leftists fighting leftists would be pretty on brand, but in that case they'd both call each other fascists. So you're probably right.

[–] HowManyNimons@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago

Normally fascists don't milkshake themselves.

[–] festnt@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)
[–] al4s 10 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Mace is a brand of pepper spray.

[–] festnt@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 month ago

everything makes sense now
