In r/worldnews there are thousands of posts wishing deaths on entirety of Russians, and it’s nothing new even there are constant calls to “nuke the whole country” whenever some country dares to stand up to United States, but saying Nazis dying is a good thing gets me banned for “promoting violence”. I didn’t even tell people to kill Nazis I just said if they die it is a good thing.
Reddit is in favor of fascism, and being against Nazism is against the rules there.
This is true, and some people make fun of me for this but I genuinely can not feel safe when I see so many people just openly cheering for Nazis because I’m not white and if these Nazis get into power I will be one of the ones being shoved into gas chambers. Maybe I should seriously look into moving to China or something I dunno.
I read these accounts of holocaust and they all fit. It’s not just Nazism but alt-right generally on the rise in Europe and constant scapegoating of immigrants/Muslims/Browns for all of the society’s problems, it basically fits 1 to 1 to Germany right before the rise of Hitler. The Jews who left when the signs were there managed to live but many of the ones who stayed died.
And now I see reddit as an official quarantining GenZedong for basically no reason and banning me for basically saying “Only good Nazi is a dead Nazi” while on places like r/europe people constantly call for the genocide of me and my people without any problem, it seems to me like past few years they’ve popularized Nazi talking points and now they’re moving to the next step which is normalizing Nazis themselves.
All they need to do is make a new brand of nazism which doesnt hate Jews and they’ll all eat it up. After a couple of years they can add the jew hate back in. Just get out while you can, even if youre a straight white man if they find some marxist posting you did online you’ll be up against a wall…
I mean it’s not even a new “brand” they just outright say Jews are controlling the world and doing anti-Semitic hate crimes on a massive scale but libs have decided that they haven’t killed any Jews yet so it’s all fine and anyways why aren’t you more mad at Russians? They’re the real Nazis!
The latest normalization of Nazis is not a turn towards Nazism in my view, but rather a similar situation for religious extremism.
Many in the west cheer on “moderate rebels” like Al Qaeda and Jaish al-Islam. The western cheering for Azov is similar, they think they are “moderate” nazis.
The “moderate rebels” were said to not have extremist views. These are Nazis, by definition they have extremist views. They’re not even denying that they have extremist views, just that it doesn’t matter, so I think it is tacit approval of their extremist views. This was not the case with moderate rebels, I think there is a bit of a difference there.
