Corrected Title: Two fascists agree Hitler was a communist.
I gotta think of the ridiculous Simpsons clip with McBain where he said: “COMMI NAZIS” And it was funny because of how ridiculous it is to have a communist Nazi
Stupid, or liars. Remember, that is always an option.
Communists were literally one of the first groups targeted for arrest when Hitler came to power in 1933. Like 10 seconds on google.
Elon does not read… or at least pay attention to what he reads.
He also apparently does not watch movies.
This assumes Elon is being genuine. He is not. Same as Trump. All the bullshit they spout is about manipulation of their supporters and not about being genuine about their beliefs.
Oh, so now Stalin is a communist?
The Axis alliance between Italy Germany and Japan was literally formed as an anti-communist alliance.
Dear Leader says Hitler was a communist so he was, all of you are wrong!
Lost cause of the south levels of willful delusion
Breaking: self proclaimed genius is, in fact, an idiot.
Didn’t his own dad say he was… the R word?
To be fair his dad’s opinion isn’t one that I respect.
But yes. The man has more money than God and basically his entire family has completely disowned him, with the exception of the baby he carries around as body armor because he isn’t old enough to know what that is yet.
For anyone else in the world I would hope that would be something of a wake up call.
Or a liar. Remember: in real life, people can, in fact, lie.
If Hitler is communist then the Nazi party is communist.
If the nazi party is communist then nazis and supporter of the nazi ideology are communists.
The far right is comprised majorly of nazis and supporters of nazi ideology, then the far right is communist.
The far right has Trump as a leader and have an ideology similar to their supporters, then… Trump is communist.
America, you know what to do with those commies.
Red scare, don’t let me down now!
Just wait till you find out what color MAGA hats are!
Brilliant 👏
Saving for future use.
If those people could follow logical trains of thought, we wouldn’t have any of these problems in the first place.
“I am so far right that compared to me Hitler was a communist” FTFY Elon
Fucking idiots. Does it mean that Trump is a communist?
Ahh so elon is now publicly declaring he doesn’t know what he is talking about.
Now? Always has been.
Don’t think he’s actually that stupid unfortunately, this goes deeper than that and is far more manipulative
Oh yes. In the early 1900s Nazis waged openly violent political gang war against the communists out of love and similar views.
I know this sarcastic, but conflict between various communist parties with slightly different views have been quite common in history
Pretty big difference though, the Nazis specifically targeted “Judeo-bolshevism” and were formed specifically to combat rising Communist sympathies and organization.
Conflicts between Communist orgs usually arose from incompatible differences in principle, such as whether or not to support such and such Socialist org, and usually the fighting isn’t based on extermination like it was in Nazi Germany with the Night of Long Knives.
I love it when folks are so stupid that they’re ignorant of how stupid they are.
Some guy saying that in a pub is ignorant. The leader of a Nazi political party knows exactly what they’re doing.
This, though.
The takeaway from this is not “OMG Musc + the new Natsis = stoopid! D:”.
It’s “Musk and the AfD are lying sons of bitches.”.
Musk is a pub bore
They are not ignorant. They know exactly what they’re doing.
The problem isn’t the Elon and co say this. It’s the middle ground people who, for the most part, are reasonable but have little education about politics, and don’t want to participate beyond soundbites.
In this case, the phrase works on two levels.
Most of these people would admit Hitler was bad. So, this reaffirms the statement Communism is bad. Even if they don’t know what Communism is.
For others, Communism is bad. This allows them to hear “We’re not like Hitler” about Elon and Co. They have no idea how bad Elon and Co may be, but at least their not commie pinkos.
The real genius of capitalists has been to persuade the electorate that there are no viable alternatives to capitalism.
McBain to base. Under attack by Commie-Nazis.
So she admits that her AfD supporters also support a communist.
Americans: “Hitler was a communist.”
BuT tHe PaRtY hAs SoShUlLiSt iN iTs NaMe So It MuSt Be TrUe A nAzI wOuLdN’t LiE
Americans: “Hitler wasn’t all bad. Sure, he killed some people but not as many as people say. He helped save the economy and even loved animals and children”
they know this isn’t true but they also know it works to say it
