a post about how many nazis remained in positions of power is made, the op is called a tankie and people defend the decision to keep nazis around
It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
also I'd really like to see these fuckers say Klaus Barbie and Reinhardt Gehlen were merely scientists.
Also the more clever among them will frequently try to conflate Paperclip (where the US enticed nazi scientists and helped them immigrate and gave them prominent positions) with Osoaviakhim (where the soviets kidnapped nazi scientists ) while ignoring Bloodstone (which actively sought out ideological nazis for western covert projects)
Yeah some dipshit already brought that one up, as if putting the head Nazi scientists and generals in charge of NASA and NATO is the same as forcing their scientists to work for the USSR as war reparations. Then some others in the thread cried whataboutism, lol
Whataboutism? What about deez nuts?
Boot lickers will cry about Soviets forcing scientists to work for them then executing or deporting them after they obtain the knowledge as a bad thing. I don’t know if the details are apocryphal or real, but I enjoy it anyway. Maybe it’s a bit harsh. Maybe it’s not when your knowledge helped the Nazis. Regardless, the German scientists should’ve been kept out of the spotlight. The one time America could’ve lied and stolen inventions while being morally correct, they decide to praise the Nazis helping them instead.
My bad didn't see you already mentioned bloodstone
How fucked is the discourse when 4chan is a shining beacon of truth and light though
We fucked up sarnt
That looks like leftypol.
yeah it's leftypol; still imageboard but definitely not 4chan
