      Excuse me, fucking what?

      Nah motherfucker idk what made you decide to type this but this is literally just soft holocaust denialism and the exact sort of thing word for word I have seen Nazis say.

      The hypothetical Israeli person in your brain you made up to imagine saying this to does not make it any less of a Nazi ass thing to say.

        Israeli Nazis call out the exceptionalism in the victims of the 1940s Holocaust instead, what’s equally nuts. For starters, it’s the event itself and not the people victimized in it that made that an horrid mistake for the humanity. Secondly, they almost never talk about the other victims in any significant manner: Romanis, Queer people, people with special needs, etc.

        Shit, the Nazis were pretty active in the past 24h here in Lemmy.ml

          political quadrant meme of Nazis where it’s zooming in on the top right corner and then there are four more quadrants and two of them are zionists and neo-nazis and the two poles are “the holocaust didn’t happen” and “the holocaust was the only genocide”

          The other two quadrants are “The holocaust did happen and it was good” and “there is no genocide only rational transactions based on free competition”

          I’m not your comrade asshole. You literally said Thanos was based unironically. Your entire post history is full of reactionary nonsense and this comment here is totally incoherent and does not address the fact you just posted holocaust denial and as far as I can tell are now doubling down on it.

          Nobody that says this shit is a comrade of mine. Also socialism is democratic in its purist form to date. I don’t know where you have been developing your political beliefs but you need to touch grass and read actual socialist theory if you want to even begin to call ANYONE comrade.

            I find it frustrating that we don’t ban or take a harder stance against people opposing democracy. I see this misanthropic drivel all the time and so many people just go along with it.

            Democracy is a scam being used for protecting neoliberalism, rentism and capitalism. It is already fascist.

              Add scare quotes and this is perfectly fine. I don’t think anyone here legitimately opposes democracy, only Democracy™. Democratic centralism is like one of our core tenants.

                That comment was made shortly after the one in the comment I’m responding to. I’m sure some people had your reading, but we don’t have reason to think it’s the author’s intention.

Welcome to c/news! We aim to foster a book-club type environment for discussion and critical analysis of the news. Our policy objectives are:

  • To learn about and discuss meaningful news, analysis and perspectives from around the world, with a focus on news outside the Anglosphere and beyond what is normally seen in corporate media (e.g. anti-imperialist, anti-Zionist, Marxist, Indigenous, LGBTQ, people of colour).

  • To encourage community members to contribute commentary and for others to thoughtfully engage with this material.

  • To support healthy and good faith discussion as comrades, sharpening our analytical skills and helping one another better understand geopolitics.

We ask community members to appreciate the uncertainty inherent in critical analysis of current events, the need to constantly learn, and take part in the community with humility. None of us are the One True Leftist, not even you, the reader.

Newcomm and Newsmega Rules:

The Hexbear Code of Conduct and Terms of Service apply here.

  1. Link titles: Please use informative link titles. Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed.

  2. Content warnings: Posts on the newscomm and top-level replies on the newsmega should use content warnings appropriately. Please be thoughtful about wording and triggers when describing awful things in post titles.

  3. Fake news: No fake news posts ever, including April 1st. Deliberate fake news posting is a bannable offense. If you mistakenly post fake news the mod team may ask you to delete/modify the post or we may delete it ourselves.

  4. Link sources: All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. If you are citing a Twitter post as news, please include the Xcancel.com (or another Nitter instance) or at least strip out identifier information from the twitter link. There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance, such as Libredirect or archive them as you would any other reactionary source.

  5. Archive sites: We highly encourage use of non-paywalled archive sites (i.e. archive.is, web.archive.org, ghostarchive.org) so that links are widely accessible to the community and so that reactionary sources don’t derive data/ad revenue from Hexbear users. If you see a link without an archive link, please archive it yourself and add it to the thread, ask the OP to fix it, or report to mods. Including text of articles in threads is welcome.

  6. Low effort material: Avoid memes/jokes/shitposts in newscomm posts and top-level replies to the newsmega. This kind of content is OK in post replies and in newsmega sub-threads. We encourage the community to balance their contribution of low effort material with effort posts, links to real news/analysis, and meaningful engagement with material posted in the community.

  7. American politics: Discussion and effort posts on the (potential) material impacts of American electoral politics is welcome, but the never-ending circus of American Politics© Brought to You by Mountain Dew™ is not welcome. This refers to polling, pundit reactions, electoral horse races, rumors of who might run, etc.

  8. Electoralism: Please try to avoid struggle sessions about the value of voting/taking part in the electoral system in the West. c/electoralism is right over there.

  9. AI Slop: Don’t post AI generated content. Posts about AI race/chip wars/data centers are fine.
