But then some celebrity in the 80’s was arguing against physical fitness tests for firefighters saying well they could use like power axes or something (which you know. did not exist).

Who? I feel like a huge issue here is saying anyone who is a woman and says a thing = feminism. I know dozens of firefighters who are women, they pass the tests all the time. (My brother is a volunteer firefighter in BC, Canada.)

I'd assumed you actually were 'done' but no, I see you still getting bodied in this very thread by other people.

Keep up the good work :)

Arguably the average American company is far worse than the Nazis were.

I just want to leave this here so you can never edit it, nor remove it.

Bro this is just ignorance.

Like the 'innocent German farmer soldiers' who had no idea what was happening? This is how that starts, dude, seriously, this isn't even a clever attempt at a wedge issue. It's as in-your-face as it could be.

Sigh can you calm down there for a second?

When it comes to Nazi stuff? No, absolutely not. Fascists run the US right now, and I am rightly worried about what that means. We have actual Fascists running the country with nukes, with an army they spend more on than most of the world combined. Fascists are always stopped by picking a fight they can't win, and if these apologists and 'well were they really that bad' or whatever it is this time buy them sympathy, they buy them time to creep into each office, each group of people. Suddenly you have Jews for Hitler and they go 'see? If we were really bad, would these people defend us?'

So no I'm not going to calm down, I'm going to very specifically point out we know exactly where this goes. This is the paradox of tolerance right here; we fight it everywhere. Not just when they say the genocide things, when they do any dog whistles, any of the talking points, we shut that shit down.

and instead simply believed propaganda they’d come across

This is the same fucking stuff from the Nazi's. And we didn't beat it last time with softly worded retorts and appeasement, we did it when we stood up and fought back, we figuratively gathered all the bullied groups at school against the school bullies and pummelled them so badly they couldn't hurt us again. Because Fascists pick on the smallest target, because they need the money, the distraction, an External Enemy to focus people on. And it starts here, in the pubs, in the break rooms, in the internet forums, on message boards, that they build their support base.

So call this paranoid or that it's me being emotional, I don't care, because all I have to do is point at the past and I'm proven right.

Because I'm going to make goddamn sure you understand what you're doing so the next time you think we should talk nice to the people defending a group that designed and implemented genocide of more than one people group as a fucking core ideology you'll pause and maybe reflect on if this is the best time to be super cordial with some guy about to launch into 'I'm just saying maybe the numbers are exaggerated.'

My grandmother wasn't thrown in a camp by fucking elite waffen SS guards it was random fucking Wehrmacht child rapists who were taught that Deutschland über alles.

Does it feel good getting off to demonizing people who don’t know better

What is he, a goddamn four year old? Who the fuck doesn't know Nazi's are bad are you fucking kidding me here? Nobody is 'getting off' on anything, this person called out a Nazi apologist. There's no clean wehrmacht, it was a Nazi lie by higher ups to save their own fucking skin.

From 16 Days in Berlin: (I can't be assed to find the original attribution, go do it yourself if you care to.)

"We have to win this war... if the others win the war, and they do to us only a fraction of what we have done in the occupied territories, there won't be a single German left in a few weeks."

Here's a list of the companies that used slave labour from concentration camps.

There now I've done the thing where the lefty finds the answers for you.

Fuck fascism, fuck Nazi's, fight them everywhere you see them, give them no ground, no quarter. Defend each other because even the centrists will side with them, just like last time.

If you want to educate the person above, don’t start with “fuck off”. Just explain to them why they are wrong and corroborate with historical bits as you please.

No. Fuck Nazi apologists.

I don't want to say 'Itodaso' but the guy went from "Not all men" to Nazi apologist in ONE post. These guys are all over Lemmy and it's super depressing.

Theres something else far more wrong with them, and I think it involves money

There's also that they don't have to deal with the 'women are emotional' trope, so in general, there's always going to be another assumption. The only extremely famous woman I can think of on roughly this level is J.K. Rowling, and hers wasn't divorce driven.

I think the main thing is men more often recognize a rational thought process and differentiate it from an emotional thought process.

I've got bad news for you if you think doing your capitalist duty and going into work while fascists take over is going to somehow work out later.

Examples of Strikes, mass protests, and revolutions that happened when things were easy for the strikers to go out and do them:

Times the police, military, and other centrist citizens did everything to directly stop or persuade them to stop: (all)

People worked right up till they were put in camps in the 30's, too.

Don't worry other people will do it just like last time, too.

Imagine the Saddledome completely sold out. This means 2,315 of those people want to 'definitely consider' and 1,350 would 'probably consider' joining the United fucking States.

Thank God they didn't vote Democrat, Gaza saved.

Not 90% opposed, 81. 1 in 5 Albertans are okay with it -- that's terrifying.

Parmar said he was informed of the reports last week, calling the news of tree spiking — which involves inserting a metal rod or spike at the base of the trunk where a logger may cut — "incredibly alarming."
