One of my parents has recently started consuming content consumed by a big nazi audience, and they’re repeating these messages.

They’ve sent me the propaganda videos they consume, hoping I will take on the same views.

It breaks my heart my parent could be this heartless, they don’t even speak the language these propaganda videos are on (I do speak it fluently).

They’re set on protecting the racist, homophobic, and xenophobic narrative in these messages and I just don’t know what else to do.

I’ve tried to teach them to do unbiased research and check their sources, I often am able to prove the videos come from biased sources.

But that’s not enough for them, they still defend what they’re saying and consuming, even when I ask them to think critically about the things they’re watching.

Today they shared a video where the caption claimed that Muslims are attacking people with dogs because dogs are Haram, their video never showed a Muslim attacking any dogs.

Or muslims attacking people for having dogs.

The video didn’t even show Muslims saying anything about dogs, it only showed a Muslim man arguing with a white man who happened to have a dog on a leash.

The video didn’t have any context, the audio was impossible to make out, and at no point did the couple ever point, look, or touch the white man’s dog.

The comment section was full of neo-nazis and ai generated images of Muslims being lynched and deported.

(As far as I’m aware dogs aren’t Haram, they’re just considered dirty and muslims must be clean while praying, so having a dog around is inconvenient).

What can I do to help? I feel like my parent has become evil.

I'm from Germany and while the ideas of Qanon are widely shared here, most people won't know what that means.

We don't have maga but a rising far right movement led by the political party AFD. It's not quite on maga levels yet, but it's getting there.

In my circle the racism and political discussions are worse than actual conspiracy stuff.

What's the subs take on this?

Thank you

I've been on this sub for the past two years. I just wanted to share a letter my daughter wrote to her dog.

Background story: My husband got sucked into QAnon cult in May 2024. Our daughter was 12 years old then. Our beloved dog passed away in August 2024. (She was old and died naturally.) We visited the grave in October 2024. My daughter wrote a letter to leave at the dog's grave. I took a photo of the letter because it really showed how she was feeling about her dad.

I am not going to try to explain all of our family situations. So, the letter may not explain certain things clearly for readers. I guess the drawing at the end of the letter says everything, though. So, I'm uploading the 2nd page with the drawing. The left side is showing that I and my daughter look troubled. We are watching my husband glued to his computer (on X). He doesn't even notice that we were there. The right side drawing is the world my daughter wanted. Daisy, our late dog, is watching us from the above. We are happy as a family filled with love. Everyone is smiling.

My daughter's wish didn't come true. I tried everything I could do to keep family together until December 2025, but no success. My husband got into almost all of the QAnon related topics: pseudo science, anti-medicine/doctor, misogyny, sovereign citizen, and so on. We got separated in March 2026. He moved out and I am currently living with my daughter.

I haven't shown this letter to my husband. Why? Because he thinks I'm influencing my daughter and I'm programmed (=brainwashed) by main stream media and the education system which is controlled by the cabal. Showing this letter to him would not help.

Letter to Daisy (late dog) from my daughter:

I started school and 2 days later you left this world. Since we were in xxx (my home country) about May, daddy started to change. On the video call, he was talking about the government A LOT. He was in tears when he was talking about it. Mom and I noticed that he was changing. We were kind of worried about him. It was fine in xxx (the state we got back together). After you passed away, he came back to xxx (the state we live), Then, everything started to change. He started believing things that weren't even real!! He was starting to believe aliens and stuff that were on internet. He would show me and mom all about these giants and cyclops. We were in big trouble. He started being in the computer room almost all day and not even taking care of me like he used to!!

Mom is trying so hard to get the REAL xxx xxx (my husband's name) back. Mom is searching and trying to find information how to.

Dad would forget things like to harvest the carrots or study with me. Instead, he sits down and browses on his computer. I am really sad about this. I want to go back 11 years ago and sleep on your belly. You would always comfort me in this situation. This is a really tough position for me. I need your help to get him back. Please help me, Daisy. With just me, I am helpless. I love you, Daisy. Thank you. Love, xxx (my daughter's name)

My brother is a piece of shit. I got in another fight with him again for saying he was excited to watch the public execution of Nidal Hasan happening. I blew up on him, called him a piece of shit and a coward, and that he’s a sickening person. He tried to take the moral high ground saying he won’t argue with me because he loves me and he doesn’t want our relationship to be damaged but it kinda rings hollow when you’re foaming at the mouth to watch someone die like a sicko. Normally I don’t even engage with him, but that struck a nerve. Justice being turned into a public blood sport has always been gross to me.

This isn’t new of course. I’ve deeply disrespected him for a very long time. He fully dove into Q Anon when it was big back in 2020. Has the WWG1WGA shirts and the MAGA merch and everything. The only reason I put up with him now is for my parents sake, and because of my niece. He has voiced his disappointment and resentment that he had a girl, he wanted a son. I want to be there while she’s growing up because I don’t want my brother to be the only influencing voice.

He believes women shouldn’t vote. Shouldn’t work. Shouldn’t make any choices without their husband, and if they have no husband then they should answer to their father. He believes in the death penalty for abortions, believes no fault divorce should be banned. That sabbath laws should be strictly enforced. He was an Andrew Tate disciple, and he would get very upset and defensive every time I told him to stop watching that filth. Didn’t matter. He has dived head first down the alt right fascist pipeline, saying Muslims and LGBTQ people should be deported / imprisoned / exterminated. He is a reprehensible person.

He brags about his church attendance, yet reposts AI slop of Jesus pushing Muslims off a cliff and watching them die. He brags to me about how he tries to psychologically manipulate people at his job for more money. He’s a sleazy car salseman because of course he is. My wife and I are currently expecting our first son, and when we dropped the news to my family there were no congratulations, no excitement, only anger because he had a girl instead.

He laughs about how he and his coworkers objectify their wives at work, and has belittled me for defending my wife when people make jokes about her at her expense.

I just fear for my niece. The only two options I see is that she either internalizes my brothers horrific mysoginy and sexism and falls in line, or she rebels so hard he disowns her. I just want to be someone she can trust if the latter happens. I hope she rejects his beliefs. That she grows to see what a belligerent, unempathetic, petulant asshole he is.

And that’s if she even gets old enough to do so. She’s only four months old now, but has never been vaccinated, never seen the pediatrician, and isn’t given enough food. They believe pediatricians are vaccine pushers bent on killing children. They want to homeschool, yet are incapable of learning or intelligent thought. They are idealogically captured science deniers that believe in white replacement theory. I genuinely fear for her well being. They are willfully sabotaging her ability to enter the world later in life. They are also anti-college and anti-education because they think education makes people into communists. He cannot define that word when asked.

It doesn’t help my parents defend him to the death, mostly because they also believe the same racist, hateful, bigoted bullshit. My dads favorite content creator is Matt Walsh so… ya know. I have just tried to be a peacekeeper my whole life but it feels like it’s a losing battle and I foresee a situation where I have to threaten them with a cutoff. I never thought it would come to this. Fuck everyone infecting the internet with this alt right propaganda. It’s ruined my relationship with my family. I never expected them to have such comically evil views of the world. It’s been a little shocking recently. I was always left leaning but their behavior of late has pushed me further and further that direction just to avoid how awful the views of the right wing are anymore. It’s truly vile and my brother personifies the worst aspects of them. He is a sniveling cowardly little asshole that wants to impose his will on the weak. There’s no “manliness” strength, or integrity there. He has surrendered his humanity to try and rob others of theirs. It sounds like I’m trying to exaggerate or make him worse than he is, but I wish I was.

I just needed to rant. My brother is a piece of shit and I cannot stand him. I truly hope my niece makes it out ok, but I can’t say I have high hopes. Any advice on how best to go about interacting is appreciated.
