    Germany is literally right on the edge of their own fascist issues right now. The symbolism may not be as directly 1to1 as America. But the outcomes are building up to be the same. Germans learned all the wrong lessons from their past and now the “never again” seems to be “well, again, but only to Muslims this time. We promise it stops there”

    How’s that song go? “Tell them that the Nazis never really went away”. They weren’t kidding.

      it’s worse than that, we shift all the guilt about antisemitism and nazism onto muslims, so that they’re perceived as the actual nazis and we’re innocent happy fellows who are bestest of friends with The Jews™ who just happen to all support and live in israel and no other jewish opinion or existence is allowed or acknowledged. the palestinian genocide really is a denazification, israel is just cleaning up little hitler babies with daily bomb and drone strikes.

        I’m really struggling with the idea that humanity doesn’t deserve to survive. Its just mind blowing how stupid and disgusting people can be.

          I don’t struggle with it at all. I accepted it decades ago. I suppose it makes the end of the world easier to deal with.

          i think the only way we can survive and create a successful egalitarian society is by having some sort of overlord ruling over us

          so for example let’s say we write a constitution and then have a super-powered generalized artificial intelligence machine force us to follow the rules

          or aliens. we could become pets for alients https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RgPeP_pfjp4

            I personally think we have to find a way to eliminate psychopaths, sociopaths, narcassists and other cluster B’s from any kind of role of power. Not just government but also business.

      What i mean with that is:

      They come over, do the Hitlergruß, then get arrested and heavily fined because its highly illegal to do that in germany

        Couple years ago I was drinking in Prague in the middle of the night and came across these German teenagers doing it and they told me “it’s great we are allowed to do this in Czech Republic” lol

        I have pics of them doing it, absolutely wild
