Literal SS divisions and Bandera's band of sadistic mass murderers were not right wing extremists according to the German government, nor are the Azov thugs with swastika tattoos, and anyone who dares to challenge this official narrative is a left wing extremist, Putinist, and an enemy of freedom and democracy. This is not an exaggeration, you can look this up: all the actual (non-socdem) left wing parties in Germany are on government watch lists and are considered a threat against the constitutional order. But they dare to claim that the DDR was a totalitarian police state. The BRD is just a continuation of Nazi Germany.

    But they dare to claim that the DDR was a totalitarian police state.

    Meanwhile, we are now under infinitely more invasive and omnipresent surveilance than anything the Stasi ever did.

    I agree, and as well I think it's relevant to consider what was historically considered invasive and omnipresent at that point in history is not necessarily the same as now.

    I guess I'm thinking, like, are current governments similarly using the full extent of surveillance? And is it something knowable? As well, how's the investment and expansion of that surveillance been done then and now?

    West Germany previously too had much more expensive and expansive oppression aparatus than East but somehow East is called "totalitarian".

    I wish I loved anything as much as Western liberals love whitewashing and apologizing for fascists.

    The Ukraine War is the modern WW3 version of the Spanish Civil War.

    All the majors get to fight each other discretely, test out all their new toys in the field, and support fascism abroad without risking anything domestically.

    Not to mention the more left-wing side of voters in Ukraine are overwhelmingly Donetsk and Lugansk voters. More than 25% in these states voted for the communist party of ukraine in the last election, and guess who voted for the nationalists? Except this time it won't be like spain, the fascists won't win.

    Love to see we've arrived at "Oh just because he was in the Waffen-SS he's a nazi now"

    It's crazy caus a few years from there the consensus went from "the dark truth about nazism is that a lot of people supported it" to "not all handpicked elite third reich armed men were nazis"

    You ever have one of those days where you recognize the Axis reforming and have this all-encompassing existential dread wash over you when you realize you won't be able to escape in time and definitely aren't armed enough

    Send it to a German fellow I know, he called it ragebait and dismissed the org as "originating from DDR as a youth org brainwashing children for totalitarian regime".

    Welp.

    A few weeks ago, someone posted about feeling like we were at the top of a roller coaster, about to tip down, and I think this is the tip down.

    The Waffen-SS has yet to reach the level of antisemitism of Roger Waters, according to Germany.

    I love how everyone here is treating this as proof of Germany going full Nazi and staring the fourth Reich instead of just the lib government being as full of shit as the libs in Canada and elsewhere.

    Praising Nazis is mainstream nowadays wholesome
