    The liberals who say "comparing Israel to Nazi Germany is antisemitic" sure are mysteriously silent when it's the Israelis themselves gleefully making the comparison.

    Is Israel just Poland: The sequel? Both countries are full of an ethnic group the west despises, but are complete groveling sycophants for the WASPs that consider them scum.

    Ehh, who am I kidding way too many of us in the anti-italian-action diaspora are like this too.

    I've been too brain poisoned by our reddit-logo logo that when someone started talking about "wanting a bad trip just go to stormfront" I was confused when people started referring to the real one.

    Was their main thing to hate Jews or to hate communists? I know they hated both but it's hard for me to know which one was greater because there's so much propaganda in the west around communism that I'm genuinely not sure. The way that you phrased this post made me think of this and I apologize for posting off topic. I just kind of posted this without thinking, let me know and I can remove it.

      The nazis thought communism was a Jewish conspiracy to undermine the west. It's not terribly coherent, they're nazis.

        I thought the Nazis first and foremost hated communists, but since huge parts of the population were industrial workers (and due to communist agitation quite informed about their exploitation through capitalism), their disdain had to be redirected to convince them to vote for the Nazis. Jews were a convenient scapegoat since antisemitism had been rampant in Germany for centuries and was still thriving.

        Antisemitic stereotypes made that easy - Jews were said to be extortioners and instead of capitalism, they were blamed for the workers' misery. What happened then is interesting imo because part of it still happens - Nazis claimed communism was a Jewish conspiracy, and since Jews were discredited as capitalism's evil, communism had to be anti worker.

        The Nazis went great length to convince the population how the Soviet Union was anti worker, e.g. by creating an exhibition and a propaganda film that ironically used footage from Nazi concentration camps.

        The first concentration camps weren't built for Jews btw. - first they came for the socialists.

        This is not meant to diminish the horror and brutality of the following Shoah in any way. I'm not a historian and I'd be glad if someone corrected me on that matter.
