Hitler was a vegan

First, no, he was vegetarian and not because of moral reasons, but for medical ones (he had digestive issues and doctors thought no meat would help)

Also, why would Hitler being vegan have anything to do with anything?

I swear to God, these folks are not alright, even by debate-me-debate-me standards

You know what my problem with Hitler was? His dietary choices. 🙄

Fucking delusional

my understanding is that he wasn't ever even a vegetarian, even in wartime when his health was declining. on top of all the evidence of liver dumplings privately being his favorite treat, the hitlerites who created this public image in the first place of him being a vegetarian ascetic also made sure to include winking admissions that he still indulged in an occasional sausage or pigeon like any down-to-earth german. so even the propaganda that spawned this myth treated it as kind of a sometime lifestyle thing

Liver dumplings

No wonder he had to go to the doctor for severe flatulence

I believe there was a short period of self inflicted acute health deterioration in which he was vegan, and was eating lead instead of animal products.

Anti-vegans know the vegans are right and that trying to justify mass torture and murder of sentient beings is a bad look. They get angry since they can’t justify their cruelty-based treats and want to associate vegans with something bad to try to resolve the cognitive dissonance and shove Hitler into the square hole.

Same with trying to use Marxism, trans support, and being against car culture as negatives. These are all good things that the ranter has to try to make sound bad to discredit hexbear and show support for chuddery they want the world to descend into.

lovebombing is a negative thing, but it doesn't apply to here anyway

we're not trying to steal people from their family/friends or whatever

[-] citrussy_capybara@hexbear.net 19 points 1 year ago

Is lovebombing fake love to manipulate people? From context here it sounded like showing extra support for comrades and marginalised people. May have used that incorrectly.

[-] BurgerPunk@hexbear.net 35 points 1 year ago

Yeah, the term lovebombing is used to describe a manipulation technique used mostly by narcissists and cults to draw vulnerable people in.

They're trying to imply us showing extra support for comrades and marginalised people isn't real and is just cynical manipulation, because we couldn't possibly just love our comrades heart-sickle

Thanks for the clarifications, comrades. soviet-heart Edited.

Hitler was a statesman so we should abolish states.
