Let’s be real: CUFI does not get nearly enough hate.

Axis war criminals might have run West Germany’s children’s homes for decades.

I feel like you should have just said ‘screw it’ and vulgarly defined imperialism as a parasitic relationship.

To keep it as mindnumbingly simple as possible, imperialism looks (more or less) like this:

Not this:

Reminder that the NATO is complicit in the Portuguese anticommunists’ extermination of thousands of Africans.

It would matter only in so far as the Fascists could have used it as a pretext for more oppression, as in the case whereafter Herschel Grynszpan murdered Ernst vom Rath (in Paris), or in the case whereafter Theodore N. Kaufman published a rant (in Imperial America) calling for the sterilisation of Germans. Then again, considering that the Fascists had fabricated casus belli before, an argument could be made that if no pretext existed, it would have been necessary to invent one.

By the way, the neocolony treats actual antisemites better than Palestinian children.

Would you waste your energy distinguishing nazis and Germans?

As a matter of fact, I would.

The NATO is complicit in the Portuguese anticommunists’ extermination of thousands of Africans.

According to the report, at least one physical assault against an LGBTQ person occurs in Israel every week.

Good grief.

Now watch Herzlians do absolutely nothing about this and instead mindlessly repeat their evidence-free canard that Palestinians throw LGBT+ humans off of roofs. Remember: if you say something over and over again, that makes it true!

The kind of socialism under which everybody would get the same pay, an equal quantity of meat and an equal quantity of bread, would wear the same clothes and receive the same goods in the same quantities—such a socialism is unknown to Marxism. All that Marxism says is that until classes have been finally abolished and until labor has been transformed from a means of subsistence into the prime want of man, into voluntary labor for society, people will be paid for their labor according to the work performed.

I’d rather not get involved in another anarchism vs. state socialism debate, but I find @Prunebutt@slrpnk.net’s attitude obnoxious. While I do question if a people’s republic is the best possible way to go, dismissing the people’s republics as ‘bourgeois’ and ‘failures’ is a crappy, oversimplified conclusion that wilfully disregards the enormous gains that the working masses made in them.

Not to mention that this paskudnyak is being needlessly hostile: I trust that you despise capitalism as much as I do, so there’d be no need for me to behave smugly or condescendingly to you just because of your anarchism scepticism and preference for the people’s republics.

Anyway, like I said I’d rather not get into an argument. I just want to tell you that I sympathize with your frustrations and we don’t have to be enemies simply because we’re socialists who have different perspectives on state machinery. We can handle our disagreements respectfully.

I am aware.

Mount Rushmore’s sculptor admired Benito Mussolini.

@nytimes can’t manage to photograph Ukrainian soldiers without platforming Nazi wear

Why do you want Putin to genocide millions of European people with blond hair and blue eyes?

Just because liberals voted for the Fascists in 1924, repeatedly praised Fascism in the press, applauded the Fascists for suppressing worker demonstrations, trained dozens of Fascist cadets, elected politicians sympathetic to Fascism, repeatedly overlooked or trivialized Fascist oppression, chanted “Deutschland, Deutschland über alles!” alongside Fascists in German government chambers, suppressed militant antifascists regularly, signed a naval pact with Fascists, extended credit to Fascists, signed military alliances with the Fascists, partitioned Czechoslovakia for the Fascists, tolerated businesses that marketed products (including oil and nickel) to Fascists, became economically critical to the Axis war machine, provided bank accounts for Fascists, bailed out Axis businessmen, held more Axis POWs than Jewish refugees, collaborated with self‐identified fascists, directly incorporated former Axis intelligence into the state, started Operation Paperclip and kept the employés, started Operation Bloodstone, appointed former Axis leaders to high ranks within the NATO, accepted surviving Axis collaborators as party members, endorsed an underground network of neofascists, allow monuments to Axis collaborators, martyrize Axis collaborators, and contribute to neofascism in Ukraine, doesn’t mean that liberalism enables fascism or fascists.

Name one time that liberalism enabled fascism.

Operation Paperclip was far more consequential than Operation Osoaviakhim. Not to mention that Operation Osoaviakhim was much more of a reparation than Operation Paperclip was. Contrary to what @Archangel1313@lemmy.ca thinks, the differences between these two programmes are not trivia worth overlooking.

I finished reading Azar Gat’s British Armour Theory and the Rise of the Panzer Arm: Revising the Revisionists yesterday. To be honest, I’m surprised that my thread linking British armor doctrine to the Third Reich was not more popular, given our low opinion of the British Empire. Oh well, I don’t make these threads only for the clicks, so a low score is not that important to me.

This is true, actually. If the hammer and sickle hadn’t massacred those 150 million straight White capitalist men, 175 billion would be alive today. So in reality the symbol killed 200 billion.
