There's a certain type of liberal out there that's just dying to say they like Hitler more than Trump or Putin and it's weird.
Some More News guy seems pretty good btw.
"Hitler didn't kill ethnic Germans" is, and I cannot stress this enough, LITERALLY, Nazi ideology
Nono. You see, being German is being gentile, straight, and not disabled. The more gentile, straight, and not disabled you are the more German you are, ethnically.
it's also blatently untrue as there were ethnic german disabled people,trade unionists, communists, and gay people
there's so many layers here. like one of the more disturbing things liberals say is that "own people" thing, like they say Stalin killed his "own people" as if that's somehow a greater tragedy than killing someone outside of your ethnicity and language group
That tweet on the left is also completely incorrect, because German speaking Germans were targets of the holocaust, because many of them were also Jewish, leftists, gay, disabled, or etc
Also when they mention Stalin killed his own people, I don't know what they're saying because Stalin was a Georgian, an ethnic and linguistic minority in the USSR
Also I'm not sure of the context, but if the left tweet is claiming that Ukrainians and Russians are the same people then it's taking Putin's side, because that's the chauvinistic Russian nationalist position
The amazing part of this tweet is that the only coherent part of it is the holocaust denial.
Kinda related: had a history teacher once that said that Stalin was worse than Hitler bc, in his words, "killing jews is one thing but killing your countrymen is much worse" and I regularly think about that. Like, the jews were litteraly germans, and even then, WHO THE FUCK CARES? Murdering ppl from other nations is still fucking horrible, why the nationality is so important to libs?
I also would like to point out he was probably the most "leftist" history teacher i had :agony-shivering:
Damn, i must've lucked out with my history teacher. I still remember a lecture we had in class that went:
"And do you know who handed Hitler the blueprints for the concentration camps?"
"Who?"
"WE DID."
not in bed with organized crime
What do they think the holocaust was?
white liberals are desperate for world war 3 just so they can feel like a part of it by changing their profile picture to a whatever flag.
Cody has the occasional lib take but for the most part he seems like a genuine leftist.
Someone on the old site once said about Robert Evans "he's a less left version of Cody who is absolutely convinced he's a more left version of Cody"
He's also admitted that he used to browse the old site. Probably where he picked up those lib takes.
She's doing fash apologia but honestly I think Maddow is just a dumb lib more than anything else. Anyway, scratch a liberal, yada yada
There's a retraction this morning.
The historical record is clear. Hitler killed millions of Germans. We tweeted out part of an inaccurate statement made last night by former Ambassador Michael McFaul without attribution, and we regret doing so. We have since removed the tweet.
I guess it could be SOMEWHAT believable given the image it was tweeted with. Hell of a mistake there, though. And either way some fucking former ambassador apparently said it, so it's still major WTF.
On top of the other lies pointed out, hitler absolutely used his office to enrich himself at the expense of Germans and was bribed by capitalists.
Libs pedaling ahistoric hitler apologia.
Please do not use class conflict as a lense for understanding the holocaust. The reality is that it was just a case of millions of people all deciding to act in the same shitty way at the same time. But they all did so for their own personal, absolutely unknowable reasons. There are no overarching forces to study, learn from, or to otherwise use to explain this phenomenon.
They also don't seem to know that all of the nazi leadership were rich psychopaths. Stalin doesn't seem to have taken anything for himself, other than about 11 pairs of pants (which seems excessive) and some books about communism.
bro literally had a slush fund which german monopolists made regular, massive donations to. bro had a fleet of limousines and garnished from the sale of every stamp sold in germany. he wasnt some ascetic lmao
Libs read Blackshirts And Reds - challenge level: impossible
Some More News dude is cool and good, AFAIK, but I feel like he has better takes on twitter than on his show. However, since it's YT based, kinda feel like that's intentional. Hiding his power level and such.
I feel like he also has to temper his takes a little for Katy since she co-writes it, and she is definitely just a straight up lib
Didn't know/consider that. Damn, now I want to see what he could be like on his own.
What's really ironic about this is that Putin's popularity in Russia comes from him having cracked down on organised crime relative to Yeltsin
