The tendency for Authoritarianism and Racism never really left Germany: remember, Nazism was stopped by outsiders, not Germans, so mostly they changed the symbols and stopped outright saying certain things even whilst still thinking and practicing them - doing what it takes to make it seem like they changed, not actually changing.

So it’s no surprise that on a racially charged subject involving a Genocide were tens of thousands of children have been murdered for their ethnicity, the German Authorities not only in quite an extremely Racist way sided with the Genociders very overtly because of their ethnicity, but also moved back some more in the exercise of the power of the state towards doing things like in the “good” old days.

The mindset of Racism and Macht macht Recht never actually went away.

I thought the whole point of Israel for the far-right was that it is a place to dump all Jews from the rest of the World.

But evidently the government believes in a different model of legitimacy: they believe that legitimacy is derived from the mere fact that they hold power.

*Macht macht Recht"

Oh, it’s totally fucked up and I do agree that Europe should proactively work against Dogey America.

My point is that Europe militarily intervening in an American Civil War doesn’t have enough upsides for Europe to offset the downsides.

Well, been * ahem * told that a friend of a friend didn’t found any videos there were “Your friendly neighborhood geek goes into the house of a hot milf to upgrade her Windows 10 machine to Arch and she shows them how hot she found their Linux install skills and how thankful she is”, so that seems unlikely.

I was born in Portugal, a country which was back then under a Fascist Dictatorship.

It was a dirt poor European country were things were so bad that it got Food Aid from other countries.

Fortunatelly, there was a Revolution not long after I was born. In the 5 - 10 years after the Revolution quality of life and average wealth in my country went up dramatically.

In my own country, Fascism came to power when the Finance Minister during Republican years who saved the country from Financial Ruin, just captured power and made himself President - so yeah, starting from a very low point Fascism can improve things a bit for a while, but it doesn’t take that many years for it to turn the whole thing into shit and that’s what happenned in Portugal.

Fascists might sometimes cause a little Economic bump if they take over from a very low point (the same happenned with the Nazis in Germany), but it never lasts, and the ones in America are already going at it so ineptly and haphazardously that I bet there’s not going to be any Economic bump.

The Fascists are incompetent as fuck and seriously regressive, so they eventually drag down any nations they take over once the cummulative side effects of their actions have time to work through the system. As America is already in a post-Imperial decay stage, Fascism will just accelerate that decay.

From your own link: “This data set, which includes only official deaths in which identification could be confirmed”

Who did most of the counting and identification? The Gazan Hospitals that Israel blew up.

Corpses shoved to mass graves by IDF soldiers (who have even posted photos and videos of doing it) don’t get counted, much less “identified”. And don’t get me started op those burried under the rubble of bombed buildings, especially once the Israelis started targetting ambulances and rescue services.

That kind of shit is like mid Nazi Holocaust claiming there were no deaths in Auchwitz, since the Nazis didn’t care to keep track of the identity of those they killed hence the count of “official deaths in which identification could be confirmed” was zero.

Yeah, I suspect you’re right.

Yeah, right, it’s because you’re wholly apolitical and concerned above all with the plight of Palestinians that under an article about Evidence pointing to Israel’s continued used of Starvation to inflict Genocide on Palestinians you felt the need to explicitly make it about Trump and mentioned no other of the many supporters and enablers of Israel and its Genocide

Go pull the other one.

If you weren’t trying to bring in your pet peeve in American politics you would’ve just said “America” (since the whole fucking political mainstream there are Genocide enablers) or, even better, mention all of the most egregious supporters of Israel and its Genocide: America, Britain and Germany (in all of which, curiously, the whole fucking political mainstream are Genocide enablers).

Nah, low ceilings are horrible and oppressive.

The rest is fine.

You’re confusing “not being counted because the Gaza Hospitals were they did the counting were destroyed by Israel” with “not occurring”.

There was a study published in the Lancet Medical Journal about 6 months ago that back then estimated around 200k Palestinian dead even while the official figures remained stuck around the 50k mark since about 3 months into the invasion (when most Hospitals in Gaza were destroyed).

You’re parroting Zionist propaganda and I don’t really know if it’s because you yourself have fallen for it or some other, malevolent, reasons.

(Given that you’re doing this under an article about how Amnesty International gathered evidence that Israel is “using starvation of civilians as a weapon of war against Palestinians”, I know which of those two possibilities I would bet on)

They’re activelly destroying Science in the US, pretty much guaranteeing their own fatal weakening in the mid and long term if they did win and ended up controlling North America.

With the notable exception of the US ending up using nukes and causing the end of the World, there is no way Europe would lose more from merely letting present day America eat itself up than it would from militarily intervening in a civil war in the US, because even a win by the Neo Confederates would yield a weakened American in the short term (because of the destruction of a Civil War) and even more in the long term because of their anti-Science stance, and likely braindrain.

(People seriously underestimate the likelihood of rich countries regressing. To give you an example, Argentina used to be the 5th weathiest country in the World and look at them now. America absolutelly would end up regressing, FAST, if the MAGA crowd with the policies it is already practicing gained absolute power).

Not to say that many Americans who aren’t Neo Confederates wouldn’t deserve the help, just saying that pragmatically speaking letting America consume itself would be better for Europe than militarily intervening in an American civil war.

Now, if this was 40 or 50 years ago it would be different, but present day America isn’t a force for good and there being a EU gives Europe enough strength as a team to stand up by itself to powers like China and Russia if they try anything, so there both isn’t all that much good (for the World as a whole) in America to be worth saving and Europe doesn’t actually require American support.

It’s about Russia and it’s militarist expansionism, not about Trump.

For crying out loud, stop trying to score political points in US politics when murdering brown people and helping Israel do so is the ultimate bipartisan subject in the US.

You can find differences between the two “sides” in US politics on some subjects (though often the distance is fag paper thin). but in this they’re on the same side, with at most the only difference being that the Democract establishment would rather Israel was a bit more quiet in their mass murdering.

I started calling this a New Holocaust ever since it became obvious that Israel was trying to starve Palestinians to death.

So what you’re saying is that there are more wankers on Linux nowadays!???

Personally when I lived in The Netherlands I was quite partial towards lots of mayo on my patates (chunky chips, only far more than merely just larger) rather than pindakaas saus, but patates are a hole different class than English-style chips (which is the same style as in most of Europe) which do gain from drizzling them with vinegar to offset the absorbed fat.

Of course you would think that.

I used to think that too.

We’ve been exposed all our lives to constant mentions about, concern about, documentaries and even oscar winning films about what was done to the Jewish People 80 years ago by the Nazis.

(Only a person devoid of empathy such as a sociopath or psychopath can see a proper exhibition about the Holocaust and not come out of it both feeling like crying and feeling like punching the face of any Nazi, Neonazi or Supremacist they cross paths with)

Further, there is a whole nation state which is a genocidal colonialist project from its start (remember the Nakba), whose politics have been dominated by Jewish Supremacist parties for decades and which claims to represent the Jewish People, which spends over a billion dollars every year in Propaganda efforts, and the good old “they’re attacking our race” has always been a favorite tune of supremacists (just look at the claims right now in the US from the MAGAs that Whites are discriminated against in South Africa for an example from another bunch of supremacists), so of course a lot of time and money has been pumped into alarmism around anti-semitism because that can then be used to shield the Jewish Supremacists from the consequences for their actions, as has been painfully obviously done for their Genocide in Gaza.

The idea that “anti-semitism is the greatest nastiest form of racial discrimination there is” has been hammered into us relentlessly since we were born, including through emotionally powerful mechanisms such as Film so of course our natural relation to it is unthinking and emotional, and the whole subject is treated like a sacred cow.

And then you look at the treatment of Islamophobia right now and, even more extremely, of Romaphobia not just now but even during the Nazi times and since, and you spot the massive contrast between the level of alarm around anti-semitism and the harm caused by it in the present day (NOT almost a century ago, right now) and that related to Islamophobia and maybe even more so Romaphobia: clearly there is massive Racial Discrimination (and hence, Racism) in the very fight against Racial Discrimination.

(Somebody else posting under my post to this forum has shown that the Roma People were for the Nazis in the same category as the Jewish People in the Holocaust and yet, were are the constant mentions about, concern about, documentaries and oscar winning films about the treatment of the Roma People by the Nazis? It’s an obvious double standard, and worse, an obvious double standard about people murdered by the Nazis in the fucking Holocaust - an ongoing Holocaust Denialism for some of the victimized ethnicities).

I mean, thank you Zionists for, with their Genocide and abuse of accusations of anti-semitism to defend said Genocide, making me drop the whole sacred cow perspective on it and really think hard about and analyze the subject of anti-semitism and the fight against it in the modern era and thus figure out that there is a very clear, very massive amount of Racial Discrimination on how different kinds of Racism are judged, the attention given to them and the amount of effort that goes into fighting them, and that disproportionately benefits the Jewish People compared to other minorities which are right now also discriminated against far more and far more harmfully, the most extreme being Muslims and the Roma People.

And yeah, Zionism is Nazism with a different kind of ubermenschen - they’re both extreme ultra-violent supremacist ethno-Fascist political ideologies casually mass murdering children if they’re in the “wrong” ethnicity (called “untermenschen” by the Nazis, “human animals” by the Zionists, with both describing their victims as “vermin”) and those always claim that the ethnicity they say they represent is superior to others (specifically, Nazis said of the Arian Race that they were “ubermenschen” whilst Zionists call the Jewish People “God’s chose people”).

Pointing out that the most rabidly racists and murderous supremacists since the Nazis relate to the race they claim to represent exactly like the Nazis did towards theirs, is only an attack on the race they claim to represent if one believes they actually represent them (something which is only possible to believe using the twisted, racist idea that “all Jews are the same and hence can be represented by a nation”) AND is running around with a Racial Preference towards the Jewish ethnicity and thus thinks the supremacists claiming to represent the Jewish People should not be judged by the same metric as the supremacists claiming to represent other ethnicities (and such thinking is the dictionary definition of Racial Descrimination).

They’re like an origami figure folded wrongly that causes any properly folded origami figures to become misfolded when it comes in contact with them.
