dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in [email protected], it's a great comm.

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

I need a weimar history buff to help me understand this, wasn’t the United Front only created after the “failure” of Comintern’s social fascism theory, where the KPD opposed both the SPD and Nazis equally? (I put failure in quotes because I’m not sure if it actually failed or not)

Or is this meme referring to the earlier 1919 revolution, which was backstabbed by libs?

The social fascism line was because it was the SPD that crushed the 1919 revolution not the libs. Friedrich Ebert and the higher ups in the SPD used the Freikorps to crush the revolution and assassinate Luxemburg and Liebknecht.

I am guessing that the meme has in mind Hindenburg appointing Hitler as Chancellor and the liberal party voting for giving emergency powers to Hitler, post Reichstag fire.

I am talking about liberal liberals not succdems. Dems are not even succdems. I remember spd being the first one to take a side against commies with 3 arrows then commies returned aggression. Even then, at least they actually opposed fascism unlike libs
