out in full force
A bunch of 4chan wannabe reddit rejects spouting racist and ahistorical beliefs that even most liberals don't subscribe to? And these cockroaches want to pretend they represent the mood of the countries they pollute?
Lemmy has become an echo chamber for chuds who were too dumb for reddit
I'm going to be up front here, I am
and these aren't fringe opinions. Especially german historical knowledge is "bismarck built the nation with his own hands (colonization was just what people were doing because they didnt know any better), hitler killed the jews (this was the worst thing to ever happen ever), but germany got denazified (gobless the USA) then the west won against the commies (they just were so incompetent there wasnt even a fight) and thats how history has come to a happy end".
Agreed, that shithole called Germany would be the exception, but those racist destiny-esque takes definitely aren't popular outside of central and eastern Europe, where the majority of these neo-nazi stans come from
oh thats actually kind of reassuring to hear
Does nonce Island not say the same?
