r/onguardforthee used to be cool, what happened? Did the cool people leave when reddit killed 3rd-party apps or has it been like this for awhile?
It was literally never cool. One of the guy who starts it is some anti-blood donation shitlib, even.
But it's probably getting dipshits like this who come out of the woodwork on every Canadian sub when the far-right gets criticized. There was a cop in Ottawa on video saying basically defeatist white replacement talking points and r/Ottawa and r/Ontario were flooded with accounts with no prior interaction with those subs and posters there then found a 4chan thread telling people to go to the subs to make insincere non-arguments like this post has.
It has never been anything but liberal astroturfing. It was created as a reaction to /r/canada's fascists gloating about Trump's win.
As soon as Canada's own elections came around, any discussion that wasn't strictly about the Liberal Party of Canada being Light Itself was suppressed.
"Your take is too simplistic, it requires more nuance"
"Nuance on what? What needs to be elaborated?"
"It needs... nuance..."
"What part of this needs any kind of elaboration?"
"The part that needs nuance"
Remember kids, when logic and reality get in your way, just say you need to add nuance until it's morally acceptable!

are you arguing with a 12 year old?
"Sophisticated understanding of history" to the average redditor:
Commies always bad, and that's the end of it. End of discussion.
Nazis on the other hand deserve nuance, some of them were just uwu smol beans fighting for freedom, freedom from the evil commies who were definitely much worse than the nazis so actually the nazis were good but not all nazis were nazis but all commies were commies Hitler loved animals they were just defending their culture have you read this book about IQ the reason everything is shit is feminism transgender cultural marxism god I love america china bad cryptocurrency i want to be a landlord stem tesla musk jordan peterson intellectual dark web 1350 and thats why i vote blue no matter who trump 2024
Liberals got scratched and now we have something even worse than ”Commies and Nazis are just as bad”.
To be fair you have to have a high IQ to enjoy Rick and Morty etc etc...
The really grim part is that that particular subreddit is actually one of the least-awful Canadian subreddits. If even the self-described "progressives" are this bloodthirsty, you can imagine how vicious the other ones are.
Seeing how fast even alleged progressives are to rehabilitate Nazis is some real black pill shit.
"It's very nuanced actually." I say as I put on a brown shirt.
"You can't just say something is bad without context." I affix my red armband.
"History isn't black and white." I shave all my facial hair except a thin patch in the center of my lip.
"People were fighting against the Russians as much as they were fighting for the Germans." I brandish my copy of Mein Kampf.
"Fighting for the Germans in WW2 doesn't make you a Nazi." I begin to sieg heil and goose-step.
But everyone in the Red Army was a bloodthirsty, monster, serial killer rapist who had no independent thought or cared for human life
Hey, there are many circumstances where there is nothing wrong with collaborating against your countrymen.
This was not one of them, but they exist.
Just poor phrasing, since this was concretely selling out a population to genocide
someone needs to do a deep dive on how uniquely bigoted and awful canadians are so we can copy paste spam shitlords who claim canada is soooo progressive or something
Canada is progressive for a NATO member... That's pretty much it. Next elections polls show that we're moving even more to the right, even JT is too progressive most of my compatriots... 😑
Anyone who does that needs to go into detail on the actions of our resource-extraction companies abroad, especially mining companies. The shit they've pulled in the global south is horrific.
look, you can act all high and mighty, but i bet if you lived in ukraine at the time, and you loved fascism and hated communism and jews and homosexuals and women, and thought there was a conspiracy to corrupt the soul of your beautiful nation, then you would have joined the SS too! so think before you speak.
You know all those videos of Ukrainians doing a pogrom on Jewish people?
It's actually a lot more sophisticated than it looks, you need to try and sympathize with their unique circumstances. Russia was communist so they had to kill the Jews. This doesn't mean they were Nazis.
You see, the Nazis hated the Jews because they thought they were part of the Judeo-Bolshevist cabal that was trying to take over the world. So they were actually not antisemites, but wholesome anti-communists.
I once did come across "the tsar wasn't anti-semitic he only hated Jews because he thought they were behind plots to overthrow him"
The black hundreds were also just blameless uwu wholesome chunguses. They were merely trying to stop all the "lesser races" and socialists from corrupting their society. Nothing racist about that.
As soon as it involves JT the libs get their ideology blinders up and go into defence mode. Same thing happened with the blackface scandal and Aga Khan scandal and diameter whatever other scandal you want with JT. Then it's all about NuAnCe
I hate the libs on that sub. What kind of dork makes a sub named after a national anthem? You're supposed to learn to hate national anthems when you are forced to stand at attention and sing them when you're a small child in elementary school.
when you are forced to stand at attention and sing them when you're a small child in elementary school.
i thought that was just an american thing
I could have sworn I've told you that we do that dumb shit too. Sometimes we'd have to do it in english and french. If you want to know how little it stuck, I'm pretty sure I once biffed an assignment that required me to write the lyrics from memory lmao.
