  • Link to the German News Magazine "Zeit" about the findings. It is in German, sorry for that in advance.

  • Biden: Wants to do something good for a lot of people

    GOP: "Thats communism and evil and unamerican and unchristian and racist and the West is falling! Quick, do something before he helps the poor!"

  • Command and Conquer Generals - Zero Hour, Remade by Westwood Studios

    A dream come true, but very unlikely, given how EA treated the C&C IP over the last few years.

  • That the police is there to help.

    In childrens Cartoons, cops are often depicted as "friendly helpers", fair, reasonable, compassionate and competent.

    Sweet Lifegiver, was that illusion shattered.

  • Are you concern-trolling? Because it feels like it.

    Third-Positionists claim to be centrist, arguing "bOtH sIdEs hAvE a fAiR pOIIInT". You cant just genocide "a tiny bit" or being "a little bit racist", but in giving credit to the rights ideas, you enable them. Its even on wikipedia and is accuratly mentioning the "Fascism on the left" thing.

    She is supporting Putin, a fascist dictator and is spreading missinformation on the matter. Google search: "Sarah Wagenknecht on Putin". I tried it just know and boy there is a lot.

    The other point: This article mentions she calls herself a "left-conservative", which is an oxymoron, and also just regular moron. Or in her case, dishonesty. Because that would be social, but also national, fusing into national-social(ism). Also anti-climate regulation, calling it "blind planless Eco-Activism, costing people money, but actually doing nothing for the climate". Literal denial of the efforts we make to safe the world. Another very Fascist talking point. Fascist cant defeat the Climate Crisis, because you cant it by being racist and unfuckable, some of the only things they actually do well.

    (Source is in German, sorry for that)

    Also: Economic Policies ARE Social Policies. If you are right on them, you are just on the right. The idea that both are separated is naive at best and active malice at worst.

  • Sarah Wagenknecht is basically a Tankie and quite popular with the right.

    Her leaving the left party ("Die Linke"), potentially siphoning votes from the right and causing fragmentation there is a good thing.

    Also remember: Wanting to appeal to the left AND the right is just a third-positionist, which just ends up being another flavor of Fascism.

    I would not trust her, but I recommend reading further into the matter to get an accurate picture.

  • Bro you don't need to decouple

    Trust me Bro it's fine

    Bro

    Bro

    You are listening to me Bro, right?

  • Its an unpopular take because people dont like it when you point out that their "healing crystals" might as well well be "sieg-heiling crystals".

  • Unpopular Take:

    Having superstition, religion and pseudo-science persisting and thriving in your society turns into systemic problems eventually. Including Genocide.

    Why? Because it teaches people anti-empiricism, emotional "reasoning" and essentialising people. All these are the basis for every reactionary thought, conservative brainrot, religious extremism and eventually denying reality.

    Studies back this up. Most of the alt-right are very religious, "skeptic" of science or inclined to mysticism. (Remember Ivermectin and Faith Healing? I do.) This shit even goes back to the OG Nazis in the Third Reich. They loved their mystical stuff and pseudo-science.

    Why thing thinking pattern leads down the drain is very simple.There is no fundamental difference between between:

    People cant be together because of their sign and
    People cant be together because of their skin color

    Both times the logic of this methode is the same. No truth, only vibes.

    Why we should keep either is beyond me.

  • Posting content that is critical of right-wing and fascist ideology in a community that is full of conservatives.

    They deserve truth.

  • Me: "Interesting thought."

    Me after reading the comments: "This shit is more complex then family relationships in Austrian Royalty."

  • This might be unpopular, but here goes nothing:

    With the correct and fitting (and fair) regulations, oversight by the government and accountabilit, this is a correct and more ethical decision.

    Stuff costs money. For now. Infrastructure, wages, repairs, fixes, improvements, new features.

    All these things dont come free and we only pay nothing DIRECTLY, because we pay in data, attention and privacy violations.

    By fixing this issue, the access to all these things can be secured without the plattform falling appart or having to resort to invasive data harvesting. We could even make these practices illegal, because plattforms would not just die then.

    And no, the price should not be so high to generate profit for the executives. Thats why regulation is so important.

    In the Modern Age we live in, Social Media is at this point akin to an essential service and should therefore be regulated as such: No profit, but stable maintenance and secure access free from monetary interest for everyone equally.

  • Anti-Masker: Check

    Anti-Queer: Check

    Loud Minority: Check

    Thinking rules are for others: Check

    Putting their ideology over their childrens health: Check

    Making me feel a bit of sympathy for a school security officer is an archivement only the Republican voter base is capable of

  • Is it just me or does his face look to small for his head?

  • Before anyone comes in with "Religion of Peace" statements: Conservative Christians would do the same if they were in charge. Or in fact any hardliner + religion combo.

    The Authoritarin Aspect is more the problem, then religion. But yes Religion is very susceptible to this.

  • I read a few comments on why the warmongering GOP now wants to stop sending weapons. Let me use this opportunity to make something clear:

    What we see on display are the real world consequences of what happens when you have Fascists in politics! Here is list of some things Fascism is characterized by:

    Logical Inconsistencies: Supporting expansion, use and increasing spending of military complexes and police, but then opposing war, even stopping Pentagon funding. Pro-War people would instead pass a bill firmly cementing funding instead and buy stocks of appropriate companies.

    Self-Destruction: Shutting their own Government down, loosing support from agencies and taking a massive optical loss, because they are driven by dogma, ideology and emotion. Or cognitive disfunction and dillusion in cases like MTG.

    Diplomatic Incapability: Not only an inability to reach across the isle, but not even getting along with nominally allied people WITHIN THE SAME PARTY!

    The GOP used Fascism as soil for growing a base and now they reap the reward.
