Not really replace, but obviously implies it

It shouldn’t be news but it’s really funny how Marxism is discredited despite his work closely analyzing production and economy, but fascists just agree with vibes because Hitler waved his hands a lot and screamed “THE JEWS!!!”

    Try reading Mein Kampf if you want and if you hate yourself. It reads exactly like a modern screed against wokeness. Hitler complains about free speech on college campuses, about how minorities like Jews have special treatment, about how times have changed and you can't be a proud German anymore. He then very clearly says he should be in charge of Germany so he can invade the USSR and destroy Marxism.

    When I first read it I felt like I fell into a time vortex or something. It's eerie. You could replace Marxists/Bolshevik with Woke/SJW and it would read the same.

      uh...the Nazis weren't exactly pro-free speech. They were quite firmly anti-gun, too.

        The Nazis were fascist slime who would say anything because they had no coherent beliefs other than genocide. The gun control thing is a myth by the way. Gun ownership among white Germans increased after 1933. They were against Jews and leftists possessing guns.
