The first mass privatization of state property occurred in Nazi Germany between 1933 and 1937: "It is a fact that the government of the National Socialist Party sold off public ownership in several state-owned firms in the middle of the 1930s. The firms belonged to a wide range of sectors: steel, mining, banking, local public utilities, shipyard, ship-lines, railways, etc. In addition to this, delivery of some public services produced by public administrations prior to the 1930s, especially social services and services related to work, was transferred to the private sector, mainly to several organizations within the Nazi Party."

Who are you going to believe, the Nazi Party or your own lying eyes?

But it must be true if Hitler said it in order to get elected, no!? Anyway, I did respond in a similar way, yes. That "nationalization" didn't mean what the word means today

Anyway, I have a rule of doing one longer reply to Reddit psychos every few weeks and most of them end up like this. Especially those in r/economics are great, since they usually start with "I'm a moderate left-wing Biden voter, but..." and end up with defending some right-wing crazy shit.

I liked the part where , unprompted and completely out of the blue they called you a pedo. Incredible projection

[-] Lovely_sombrero@hexbear.net 20 points 1 year ago

Communist pedo is the modern way of saying "judeo bolshevik".

how to these nitwits associate everything with pedophilia, except when it's actual pedophilia? is it some kind of slur now, void of its meaning?

[-] Lovely_sombrero@hexbear.net 21 points 1 year ago

Probably, I remember this happening with the word 'gay'.

[-] barrbaric@hexbear.net 21 points 1 year ago

As with most things on the far right, it's always projection.

[-] DamarcusArt@lemmygrad.ml 15 points 1 year ago

Kind of? Pedophilia is a vague kind of "worst thing ever" to these people, an automatic "This is the worst sort of person" so it is a way to dismiss their enemies and vilify them easily.

Libs normally call people "nazis" for that, but since most of these guys spend their free time heiling Hitler they have to use a new word.

Ah ha, I have done a clever. See, nazis say thing and communists did thing. That means they are the exact same. Please ignore all differences, or that the nazis lied through their teeth constantly.

Why would you believe nazis about what they say about themselves?

[-] Trudge@lemmygrad.ml 16 points 1 year ago

I wasn't aware that Mercedes-Benz and Hugo Boss were nationalized.

Lol, if you check the etymology of privatization on Wikipedia

The term reprivatization, again translated directly from German (Reprivatisierung), was used frequently in the mid-1930s as The Economist reported on Nazi Germany's sale of nationalized banks back to public shareholders following the 1931 economic crisis.[8]

I'm not a Nazi, but I know all of the details of their policies.

I mean, I heard about Nazis, and while I don't agree with the ethnic cleansing, I just had to know what their tax policies looked like.
