Daffodil the dragon has been exploring her friend Colleen’s Nextdoor app. It only shows posts specific to Colleen’s city. Daffodil observes that humans in this world are strange.

Meanwhile, Little Adolf the neo-Nazi hasn’t ventured outdoors in days, but his mother yelled at him to get out of her basement and go take a walk. He did so, tiny peen tucked between his legs. Now he sits on a bench scrolling through social media.

On the app Nextdoor, a woman posted about how she noticed her next-door neighbor has a swastika prominently displayed in their front window. She lives in an apartment, not a house, and this is right next door. She obviously feels unsafe. She asked the public what she should do: report to the front office of her apartment complex? They’re notorious for paying no attention to tenants violating policies.

Little Adolf is too blinded by his hate and delusions of entitlement to be comforted by the fact that many complacent white assholes tried to gaslight the poor woman, telling her to stop spying on the neighbors, mind her own business, live and let live, suck it up because clearly her neighbor is “nonviolent” and entitled to practice “free speech,” as though calling hate speech “free speech” would magically transform it into free speech.
