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
because science is historically apolitical and "research" produced by nazis/racists/etc is definitely known for being very objective......
Most Nazi science was ridiculous anyways. What beneficial knowledge is there in torturing twins and seeing which one dies faster?
is there any evidence that mengele's "experiments" were genuine science? like, what hypothesis was he testing? what sort of knowledge did he hope to produce? it really does just sound like a sadist indulging in the most evil fantasies he could think of.
This is physically painful to write for me, but a lot of theories about the measureable threshold for death, the raw data on how long it takes tissue to no longer be recoverable after exposure to certain pathogens, exsanguination, timetables for tissue to freeze, time for frozen tissue to die, physiological limits of anoxia etc were "fleshed out" as it were by unit 731 and Mengele & friends. Most of the scientists and physicians of Unit 731 were given the option of either working for the DoD at Ft Detrick (history, farce etc) or facing Chinese justice.
tldr The American government officially said everything was destroyed but as is longstanding tradition with war criminals we gave everyone jobs,
So Ft Detrick is just the Mount Doom of pathogens, huh?
I think that user was defending the USSR's recruiting of nazi scientists, compared to America also giving nazis political power. The comment above them brought up the USSR's program
tbh, yeah, I would mostly trust the USSR to handle nazis scientists and not let them do nazi shit, because the USSR was ideologically committed to opposing naziism.
Starting a race science is science twitter campaign to fight this prejudice
A cursed premonition, the words of horror I can hear blowing softly on the future breeze
All science matters
