BTW, 3 million Soviet PoWs were starved, systematically worked to death or outright executed by the nazis. When you compare it with the deaths among PoWs of other nationalities, let alone deaths in captivity of other armies, it becomes very obvious that members of the Red Army were systematically targeted for extermination when they fell into German hands.

When you remove everyone on the left from your community, you're only left with the right

It's nice to see even Lemmy.world users recognize that this is Nazi Apologia in the comments section, though the upvote ratio is horrifying.

I wonder if the gradual slide further and further to the right as a result of Lemmy.world's Zionist moderators and anti-Communist stances in general will alienate the more "progressive" liberals, radicalizing them eventually? Would be nice.

Edit: lmao it got taken down

Everybody that buys into the clean Wehrmacht myth is hoping that history is as kind to them with all their sins as they are to Nazi sympathizers. The even compare supporting the Nazis with supporting the invasion of Iraq. It's literally them just trying to not be remembered as bad people for all the horrible things they support/benefit from, when the much easier solution is to change beliefs to be better

Who could have predicted that the instance that protected having right wing chasers as mods would attract nazis! Nobody could possibly see this coming!

My is set off by that user in general.

Last week they were rallying against indigenous peoples protecting themselves from encroaching loggers.

r/196 types (aka NAFO chasers) will scold leftists about how everyone in Palestine is homophobic only to weep crocodile tears for fascist soldiers.

Fucking Enemy at The Gates in 2024. I bet they also think only one in two Soviets were issued a gun.

Give me that fuckin shark and face the wall

Crying over dead fascists, lmao you can't make this shit up

oh no a country that was half demolished and ethnically cleansed by the nazis didn't devote their resource priorities to taking care of the captured perpetrators of the world's biggest genocide!! the horror!

As we say on the show over and over again the atomic unit of propaganda is not lies, it's emphasis.

Wehrmacht was not a Nazi organisation. Members were free to join the party but they were not under any obligation. The SS was an explicitly Nazi army but completely separate from the Wehrmacht.

Now if I were standing beneath a flag with a giant Hakenkreuz on it, swearing an unconditional, corpse-like obedience up to and including my own life to the leader of the Nazi Party, concluding with three shouts of "Sieg Heil!"... Yeah, I would probably feel like I wasn't quite living up to my standard of not being a Nazi.

— In fact, if I was serving in the Norwegian Armed Forces, or the United States Armed Forces, at any point after World War II, I would then too feel like I was betraying my own moral standards, because believe it or not, you are not obligated to join a specific political party to commit or be complicit in horrific atrocities. Who knew!

Jesus fucking christ, far too much of that thread is "BUT MUH NUANCEEEEE AHHHHHH "

500k nazis died worked to death in gommunist russia

Good.

Should have been 60 millions more.

3,060,000 German military personnel were taken prisoner by the USSR and that 1,094,250 died in captivity (549,360 from 1941 to April 1945; 542,911 from May 1945 to June 1950 and 1,979 from July 1950 to 1955)

Good

I don't wanna hear shit from those ppl

They should not have stopped at Berlin

I'd rather be shot by a nazi than murder innocents but I'd try to trick them into giving me the flammerwerfer before I showed my hand

The only German PoWs that weren't repatriated before 1950 were war criminals.
