Ooooh big stretch! 🙀

Authoritarian First Known Use: 1861
Holocaust date 1941-1945
Horseshoe theory is attributed to Jean-Pierre Faye in his 1972 book Théorie du récit: introduction aux langages totalitaires, in relation to Otto Strasser.
There is no evidence that Jean-Pierre Faye has ever denied the Holocaust. In fact, Faye has engaged in scholarly work that discusses the Holocaust and antisemitism.

Unironically this fragile about communism

I don't understand
I mean technically speaking, "solar mass" is connected to flat earth theory, so please avoid using it.
- basically :/
Someone got their comment mocking this person deleted.

They said, “do you even know what words mean?”

.ml mod/admin in their ban reply: “reason: Yes, I studied the history of holocaust apologetics”

My eyes may get stuck, they’re rolling so hard. What would they say if I correctly characterized the third reich as authoritarian? Does that somehow make me a Holocaust denier? The logical inconsistency is making my brain hurt, somebody help please
- Kind of like when you call Hitler a form of socialist and get banned for "complimenting hitler"
  
  There’s about the same amount of socialism in national socialism as there is democratic republicanism directly north of the Republic of Korea.
- It is indistinguishable from satire. The screenshot comment could be satire and the mod unable to distinguish it.
- you’re doing incredible work over there, really shining a light on the silliness of it all 😅 keep it up
It's awfully convenient that anything that could possibly lead to criticism of red fash is unacceptable to them.
- Me [facts are making me sad]: the word "bad" is literal Nazi genocide, please switch to "plusungood."
- Disempower the language of an oppressed group, and you disempower the group.
  
  That is pretty accurate. There are a lot of key words that simply cannot be used in political discourse, leaving it almost impossible for advocate for policies that benefits the marginalized. It is a very effective method, as is so often demonstrated.
- Just like "great man theory", i.e. any criticism of Dear Leader Xi.
Hey, this was in response to me lmao
- blocked for doing literal genocide denial 😔😔😔
lol. That guy is going to pull a muscle reaching like that.
- without even warming up first! very dangerous
