There exist only two kinds of people:

Those who want all Nazis dead.

And the other kind.

The only good nazi...

Ideally, Nazis could be persuaded to not be Nazis anymore before applying the final solution. It has happened.

How many people do they get to deport to slave camps while we are still trying to persuade them? Is there any upper limit guideline?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

The higher ups doing the crimes against humanity are too far gone. It's supporters at the lower end that might have some possibility of redemption.

The OSS did such a ~~based~~ biased job on that last time.

Fuckin sweet I made the cut.

People aren’t born Nazis. Their minds and ideology can change.

The ideology needs to die, not the people.

Dehumanization is not the way.

That would be the approach before the war broke out.

They have been waging war for a few years since Jan 6 2021

Being polite isn’t gonna help

lol can't kill Hitler cause he might still change? no mate

[–] Samskara 0 points 1 week ago

Hitler is already dead and he killed himself.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

You can recognise someone as fully human and capable of redemption and still fight them because their actions endanger the helpless.

[–] Samskara 0 points 1 week ago

Fight Nazis and kill all Nazis is not the same.

For a split second I thought this ... Auschwitz enthusiast (??) was using one of these:

Looks like the harder part (nowadays) would be having a phone with a headphone jack. Maybe they've made newer models with USB-C, BT (though the cord is part of the fun!) and/or lightening..?

Edit: A quick search shows they are indeed still available with adapters.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Didn't any of your phones come with the usb-c to headphones jack adapter? I still got mine from a while back and even one from when apple used to do that as well. If not, I don't think they cost too much to get one online.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

No, I don't have any, but yes they're trivial to buy. Unless there is a 245% markup! ;)

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I had one, no you don't. The audio quality was terrible.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Sounds like an authentic experience of using one of those old landlines.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

An old landline would have sounded better, this was like two simplex radios that are just out of tune with each other. You could hear the other person talking but it was stacticy and you really had to work to make out what they were saying.

I honestly don't think I know a single Jewish person who supports Trump and the current batch of Republicans. Nor do I think any of them approve of what is happening with Palestine (although this topic has a lot more variety in opinions and emotions).

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

I know plenty of Jewish people, dozens I'd say. I knew one who was a republican in the Bush era, and I've heard some people think he might be into Trump, but we've all lost touch with him. I know of exactly one Jewish guy who must've been in his late 80s during the first Trump term, who was into him. He passed away sometime in the first term, and while he'd always been a conservative, a lot of the people who knew him think maybe something had gone wrong in his head due to his age, that maybe he didn't really understand. It was very sad to us, because he was a man of exceptional intelligence.

I would say most of them felt offended by some of the rhetoric at Palestine protests, or felt that it was offensive to start protests before the Israeli response had even started. As far as I know, all of them soured on the response by 1/1/24 if not sooner, and at this point are fully disgusted with it.

I'm really not sure who these Jews are that have been on board with any of this. Maybe it's an Orthodox thing? These are all just regular urban and suburban folks who don't wear yarmulkes and might go to a temple once a year. Pretty secular, I guess you'd say.

man who has his panties in a bunch about the antisemitism at Harvard

Do you have the slightest idea how little that narrows it down?

[–] booly 16 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The Jewish community is waking up to this administration using them

Is it, though? The conservatives still seem like they're on the Trump train, and the liberals were never on board with him in the first place.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (2 children)

Oorah types (like, Fiveish should be considered antisemitic as fuck - it looks like something 4chan would have designed as a mascot), Bibi and his ilk, Zionists in general will always be team Trump. They don’t care about real antisemitism, they’ve redefined antisemitism to be criticism of the state of Israel. They’ve been collaborating with insane Christian accelerationists, who want the conflict in Palestine to accelerate so that the Second Coming and apocalypse will happen - I could totally see Trump encouraging the build of the Third Temple for example.

“Jewishness” for this group of people serves the same purpose that the “Christian” identity served as Manifest Destiny slaughtered Native American tribes. A loincloth justification for a desire to destroy a despised racial group and take their land.

[–] booly 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Exactly. There's nobody waking up to this realization, as the Jewish community already consists of people who were already aware of this and people who continue to bury their heads in the sand.

Netanyahu made revisionist claims that the Nazis were convinced to start the Final Solution because of a Palestinian mufti. Wealthy Jewish families like Netanyahu’s were settled in Palestine before the Nazis decided they wanted to kill everyone. (I’m pretty sure there was a quote by an associate mocking people who weren’t able to get out? As well as IDF soldiers posting Hitler shit?)

Netanyahu said the World War II-era grand mufti of Jerusalem, Nazi sympathizer Haj Amin al-Husseini, also instigated Palestinian attacks on Jews over lies that they planned to destroy the Temple Mount, known to Muslims at the Noble Sanctuary.

Netanyahu said al-Husseini played a “central role in fomenting the final solution” by trying to convince Hitler to destroy the Jews during a November 1941 meeting in Berlin.

“Hitler didn’t want to exterminate the Jews at the time, he wanted to expel the Jews,” Netanyahu told the group. “And Haj Amin al-Husseini went to Hitler and said, ‘If you expel them, they’ll all come here.’ ‘So what should I do with them?’ he asked. He said, ‘Burn them.’”

His dad also had some disturbing views on Sephardic Jews.

These are actually anti semitic claims.

There was a show on HBO some years ago called 'The Brink'. It was hit and miss, but when it hit, it fucking nailed it. Here's a clip explaining the above.

I, an unemployed, heavily drinking non-morning person, wakes up quicker than the Jewish community, apparently.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago

Shame they couldn't pull their heads out of their asses before November.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago

Can we get a fresh statement from the ADF about Elon's nazi salute?

No?

OK.

Boy, I knew Alan Moore has some strong opinions, but this seems beyond the pale.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

No they are not.
