I truly think that Stalin's attempt to create an alternative Israel in Birobidzhan/the Jewish Autonomous Oblast was a good idea that had the potential to save the lives of several million people. It's really offensive to see liberals treat the idea with such disdain when we know for a fact that not a single Jew in the JAO was killed by nazi violence during ww2. However, I also recognize that locating the JAO in the Russian far east was a compromise. The real Israel should be Ukraine.
Establishing Ukraine Israel would've been a bad idea in the 30s and 40s because it would've accelerated and intensified the holocaust. Apparently that's what liberals want? I don't know what their great alternative to the JAO is? I guess Stalin should've done something that transcended the physical reality he was working in.
Anyway, what I'm trying to say is that Afrikaner converts should probably be given 3 days of military training and be sent to Ukraine. Now we can be uncompromising and make things right.
:stalin-stressed:: Don't worry libs, the red army will do what it takes to save the world from fascism. My own son has perished in this fight. We must not let antisemitism be used to divide us in our war against bourgeois reaction. I am creating an autonomous Jewish republic where Jewish people can live in peace. I wish there was more I could do. Oh shit! Oh fuck! The nazi army is literally in the suburbs of Moscow. They're doing genocide on an industrial scale!
:maybe-later-kiddo:: Don't save the world like that! I would simply wield my pen like a sword in the marketplace of ideas!
Portion of Ukraine pre-WW2, or a portion of Germany post-WW2. Not sure exactly how either would've gone down (especially if in this hypothetical world the USSR collapses as well) but how history ended up is a tragedy.
The only way to make the world safe for Afrikaners is to give them a homeland in their native Netherlands. It will be a shining beacon of prosperity and democracy in the benighted and backwards European continent. The swamp Germans are not a real people anyways ("Dutch" identity was invented by communists/radical evangelical Christians in the 1960's to justify anti-Afrikaner racism) and they can just move back to Germany.
The funny this is that many Dutch do, and will, think of them as inferior, with the Afrikaners (Boer literally means farmer) being seen as peasant-honky stock, that they don't speak 'proper Dutch', or that Afrikaans is 'kitchen dutch'. And yh even though alot of younger Afrikaners are more liberal now many of them would find the Netherlands still too lib I feel.
ah yeah, the apartheid-enjoyers definitely deserve the right of return to their ancient homeland...
Very hot take here. Handle with care:

Trail of Tears in America, Israel: Settlers. Colonies.
JAO: Ethnic cleansing! Genocide!

Issue is them converting to move to another Apartheid project to maintain their socio-economic priviledge, not the conversion itself.
Sure, but for a long time being a jew but not wanting to participate in that project wasn't seen as a legit way for a jew to be.
