before the Nazi party came to power, they would show up to rallys, protests and town squares to silence political opponents through intimidation and physical violence.
A lot of people would consider Twitter a modern day digital “Town square”. i would say it’s eerily similar, the main difference is that there’s no physical violence just the silence.
Except they also show up at actual rallies and town squares and intimidate and threaten political opponents. This is why I endorse USING THE 2A AGAINST THEM.
That worked out stellar for Weimar Germany, didn’t it?
Unless you know nothing of the time before Hitlers rise to power and just how bloods it was.
OMG YOU’RE RIGHT!!
Everyone should just lay down like doormats and they’ll just quit being meanies!
you live in an interesting world, either you wait until some far right threat as built it’s self up and radicalized, or do exactly that, but this time try to shoot first.
the whole idea of maybe there was a bunch of stuff leading up to the Nazis threatening to shoot you that you could intercede in, stopping the whole need for shooting in the first place apparently never crossed your mind.
I believed that way too for a few months after November 2016…but you dont understand who you are dealing with. Those issues aren’t causes; they’re excuses. There is nothing you can do to appease these people; they hate because they hate. Plenty have been raised to know that their behavior and attitudes are wrong but they embrace it anyway. How many stories and comments have you read and geard about how someone’s friend or family member always seemed like normal and intelligent people until 2015 and then became increasingly fascistic and now they don’t talk any more? Thise people were ALWAYS who they were; they just never said it. They had jobs and homes and stock portfolios and nothing was affecting them negatively yet they embraced fascism and “othering” anyway.
There was nothing that could be changed that would’ve stopped this from happening short of a massive and overwhelming Hillary landslide. The simple fact is that half or more of the US are fascists and always have been, and now they’ve emboldened all the others around the world.
Y’all love to larp when it comes to guns, but never hear about the community work you’ve done.
How’s that community work going? Are you making them see the error of their ways? Did they stop hating and threatening minority groups and Democrat candidates yet?
I don’t know if you know this, but there’s a big difference between how people act with anonymity and how they act in real life.
There are definitely real Nazis. They are definitely bad guys. Removing a blue checkmark is not anywhere close to the same as people being deported to concentration camps in the literal Holocaust.
Do you understand how ridiculous this sounds?
Nothing is going to happen to any striking workers. No one is “coming” for the actual trade unionists.
The thing with comparing things to the Nazis, or to similar groups, is that they did not start with the camps and warfare. It took time for them to reach the point of being powerful enough to do that and actually going through with it, so it is still possible to make comparisons to them when things aren’t at that extreme, if one is comparing something to how they (or other fascists for that matter) acted before getting to that point.
Elon and the Twitter company are not anonymous? They’re using their position to actively bury opinions they dislike. by removing a blue check it means less people will see union organizing efforts and messaging.
The Nazi started deporting after they came into power and again they came into power and held their power by silencing their opposition. Stop being a Corpo fasist apologist.
