I felt Peaky Blinders did a good job conveying just how many folks in the Western World were ready to goose step to Hitlers tune.

Talk to your neighbors, people. If the only news they get comes from what comes on after the football game they are probably dangerously uninformed.

I hope next time Germany gets split in three.

If we start a "next time", please dissolve the German state, because then we don't deserve to have a country.

Well Germany is already enthusiastically supporting the modern Holocaust in Gaza, so it's not really an "if".

There's a major distinction there. The support for the genocide of the Palestinians is our fucked up corrupt government. Our new Nazi party however, has way more popular support (at around 20-25%). Not nearly as many Germans are behind Israeli crimes against humanity.

If someone violently dissolves the German state, I'd rather have it be for the things we are actually guilty of. Otherwise please just drop a big doozie on the Reichtstag and let us try again with elections.

If all of Germany would have been under control of the UDSSR we would not be in this mess.

This is great, appreciate starting with the US Southern Jim Crow “Race Laws” which Hitler explicitly designed the Nuremberg Laws after.

Just to help add some context.

Earlier. Manifest Destiny was the inspiration for Nazi ideology.

It's just a province of the US isn't it?

[–] Saymaz@lemmygrad.ml 21 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Naah, just another military base.

Woah woah woah, your European is showing, Americans prefer the term States opposed to Provinces.

I haven't been paying much attention to the news lately (it's been nice) and I'm out of the loop, what's Germany doing?

their fascist party is winning larger and larger elections, has people justifiably worried they could have big gains in a national election.

And we have no one left to ask to bomb the shit of our government should they start building camps again...

One of the German federal states (Saxony-Anhalt) had local elections and the far right Nazi party (AFD) won with 43.8% of votes (up +23% compared to last time) and 39 out of 83 seats, missing absolute majority by only three seats

It’s not a Reich without Germany - just sparking tyranny.

Where India?

In the real 4th Reich, you'd be first to go.
