The kicker? Here is the state department's public response,
"We will not comment on internal personnel matters beyond saying that these are personal views of an employee and do not represent those of the State Department,” the State Department spokesperson said. “As a department, we embrace and champion diversity, equity, and inclusion as a source of strength.”
Literally flat out stating they view having a open nazi in their ranks a "strength." This country is so fucking garbage:amerikkka:

you know if he was a communist he'd immediately lose his job too, there's even laws specifically about it
Absolutely. Also in the article it said someone etched in a swastika in the elevator lol and still nothing
If he was a communist he would have been on some kind of list and would have never got the job in the first place.
Don't want to piss off the people who created your entire space and nuclear programs
Some people say that fascism did not lose in 1945, but that fascism actually won by being incorporated into the anti-communist western states of post-WWII.
I think about that a lot.
growing up i thought operation paperclip was essential for the united states to bring on these unsavory scientists for the potential advancements. instead they were just bringing them home. fuck.
It is but normally you have to be the PMC suit and tie and civility type of right wing extremist.
Graduating from an Ivy League program is a prerequsite. Especially if you want to get to high rank at State.
Remember that time that the federal Health and Human Services Department supposedly lost 1488 children?
A Nazi? In MY globe-spanning reactionary governing body? It’s more likely than you think!
This kind of cynical bullshitting to protect powerful reactionaries is the real PMC shit to watch out for. There are certain roles that can only be filled by class traitors and, you know, just plain assholes. Shilling for keeping a Nazi in your workplace is one such role, I reckon.
The State Department is garbage, of course, but that inane statement is better read "our official policy is to not be Nazis, but to instead be [lib pabulum]."
As a department, we embrace and champion diversity, equity, and inclusion of fucking Nazis as a source of strength
You don't have to scratch liberals any more, do you? Liberalism is fascism with PMC aesthetics and a diversity and inclusion budget.
I want to get a religious exemption for eating meth chocolate.
As the state department represents diversity theybwould have to allow this natzi tradition
It's still on sale! https://www.amazon.com/Sarotti-Scho-Ka-Kola-Cho-cola-100g/dp/B00313TXTC
That has even worse vibes than I imagined it would. I am surprised
Steve1989 did an episode on it once. He had some original chocolate from back in the day. He ate it, of course. Because that man is a maniac. Then in the comments someone mentioned the same company was still around and still made the same product. One qwant.com search later and presto.
