humans sure are full of shit, you really shouldn't take anything people say at face value, but you are also a person, so you should be suspicious of your own suspicions because there is probably some alterior motive/bias going on also
racism, fedidrama@gil i'm really hoping there's a little more context to this because damn, no it is not "fairly explicit" that the author is seeking to downplay transphobia, no i don't think it's even implicit, seems like an accurate statement of how racist harassment operates
we should appreciate how good we have it here on fedi, we can block all the nazis, don't have to worry about corporate modersators who call the police on us and have us murdered if we're depressed, if the owner of our instance turns out to be an asshole, we can just migrate, it's pretty cool
i didn't read the original post but just on topic of american manifest destiny and it's influence on hitler/nazism
it's important to get the historical context right and so yes european anti-semitism, specifically german racism, are much more directly behind the holocaust, pogroms in europe have happened in Europe for, what? hundreds? over a thousand to 1500 years? but Hitler was a big fan of westerns and certainly took notes from his dime store novel understanding of american history, if i were to guess i'd say he liked the violent machismo, open celebration of genocide and dehumanization of native americans, and more broadly, much of the mythology about america in europe, as this highly technological, modern society, the cuttting edge of capitalism etc. influenced the classical fascist vision for the future, and think there's a broader societal trend omong the upper crust to study the experience of colonialism and come to very authoritarian, violent racist conclusions in terms of domestic policy, notice how many liberals just went full fascists overnight like 'yeah we should just kill the communists or put them in camps, good idea, we're already doing it in the colonies' The violence of colonial genocide boomeranged and all that
@DrJackBrown wow what a face, personally i find it very difficult to show all my bottom teeth like that, this people are demons, or consumed by hatred at least
@0x4d6165 custom inferface things i guess -- can't think of anything either lol -- but i imagine you could just gut the entire FE and build a new one using the webhooks,
Yeah I keep saying this, i hate how it' s all tech and pol all day, and at this point even getting sick of weeb stuff, we can just have fun sometimes, we need music, literature, poetry, photography, weird things you like, what's going on in your life whatever
