Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!

Yes of course, this was all in that documentary iron Iron Skies

We're going black to the moon for He3, so naturally there is a Nazi base on the dark side of the moon.

Bullshit. What the Nazis actually did was escape on submarines to the South Pole.

According to the rumors recorded in the mystical tome "In Lak'ech", at the end of World War II, the Fuhrer escaped with an elite group of troops in a set of submarines, and they set up a base on the South Pole.

Hitler also happens to still be alive in Antarctica, with 2 million soldiers under his command.

Persona would never lie to me.

“Could Hitler have escaped the fall of Berlin and currently be hiding in a secret submarine base with two million of his most loyal troops? Ancient astronaut theorists say yes.”

The unfortunate reality is that a lot of them escaped to South America

The White House app was created by 45Press, a company based in Canfield, Ohio, a town of fewer than 8,000 people located roughly halfway between Cleveland and Pittsburgh. (Donald Trump was the 45th president of the United States.) The company’s website describes it as a “design, development, and DevOps agency” and a WordPress VIP Agency Partner; it lists Amazon, NBC, and Sony as past clients.

Wat?

Anti-AI measure?

AI generated noise?

Why is that random sentence in there...?

Edit: I see now, thanks to dhork for pointing out to me the aside line is pointing out the link to the name, 45Press and Trump being the 45th president. It still is weirdly written imo but at least it makes sense.

[–] dhork@lemmy.world 11 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

They are correlating the name of the company, 45Press, directly to Trump, it was quite clear to me.

[–] pixxelkick@lemmy.world 0 points 1 week ago (1 children)

That makes zero sense to me, the sentence seems to be a total non-sequiter with respect to the text before and after it.

[–] dhork@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I suppose they could have said something like "The '45' in the company name is believed to be a reference to Trump, who was the 45th President", but I had no problem getting their point....

[–] pixxelkick@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

OH!

I honestly did not understand that link there with how they wrote it initially, but that makes sense now, thank you lol.

[–] etherphon@piefed.world 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

design, development, and DevOps agency

Uh isn't that called a propaganda machine?

[–] pixxelkick@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Im bolding the part right in the middle that seems to be a totally random non-sequiter that makes no sense.

[–] Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

In a way, yes.

Nazi scientists inflated their capability and straight up lied to Operation Paperclip to get out of Germany before the Russians got them.

So one could say that Nazis used UFOs to escape. It’s just the UFOs were also bullshit.

Finally we have people asking the right questions.

[–] Blackfeathr@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Is this related to the Starseed Nazi conspiracy theory?
