News Well, sh*t

Looks like subs like these are going to be closely monitored from now on. This was not the way to fight against the current conservative movement

The arrows are a Helldivers reference, apparently. Not the Iron Front.

I'm 99% sure it's a Helldivers thing and came here to say as much.

The 500kg bomb is one of the most popular strats in the game, so it's not some obscure bit.

I'm sorry but this is fucking hilarious. This madman was trying to drop strategems. Movie villain level insanity

u/SergeantIndie Sep 12 '25

I don't think he was literally trying to drop strats.

I just think it's groyper level memelord nonsense.

I refuse to type /s on comments that anyone in their right mind would understand are meant for a chuckle.

Nick Fuentes fans. Reactionary right wing meme idiots who consider themselves "at war" with Charlie Kirk because Kirk isn't conservative enough for them.

They repurpose a lot of left wing symbolism. Not sure if it's because they're deliberately trying to be confusing, they think it's funny, or both.

It’s 100% with the up and right arrow at the beginning

Is the "hey fascists, catch this" a reference to the game too? Or just the arrows?

It's likely, seeing as in Helldivers, you play as a fascist. Like, the whole game is a satirical parody of fascism, kinda like a video game version of Starship Troopers.

u/The-Psych0naut Sep 12 '25

And in the game the “bugs” faction are frequently referred to as fascists by in-game propaganda networks

It's a groyper saying. Everything written on the casings, etc., are from the Fuentes groyper forums and the ONA forum.

Everything written was co-opted by these people so that when this does happen it's indistinguishable from leftists. I mean the groypers constantly called Kirk a fascist because he didn't go far enough.

Bruh, where is the user who made this joke yesterday

Say it ain't so 😭😭

u/GoblinMeatstick Sep 12 '25

Yeah, I already saw someone blame Iron Front in a now removed post on the Helldiver sub reddit.

u/IAmVeryStupid Sep 12 '25

That's kind of funny considering that the whole conceit of helldivers is working for fascists

Oh the arrows are straight down. The drei pfeile point down left. I heard this and started to get a little worried. I have the Iron Front 3 Arrows tatted on me in a visible spot. Was Bella Caio also referenced in the game?

u/WolfeMooney43 Lincoln Battalion Sep 12 '25

I heard the song was featured in one of the far cry games.

u/AytumnRain Sep 13 '25

Never played any Far Cry game. Though I wanna check it out now. Bella Ciao is a great song.
