Most people know the nazis were bad. They just figure it’s because they were german and simplify that belief into nationalism.
I got banned from Reddit for saying that the only thing Nazis are good for is target practice.
I am an almost 40 year old white man… My Grandparents fought the Nazis.
The only good Nazi is a dead Nazi
I got permanently banned from Reddit for saying that Child predators should be killed.
Funny that.
Both of those perfectly reasonable opinions unfortunately still fall under reddit’s site wide umbrella bannable offenses of “inciting harm or violence.” 🫤 I know because I’m here for the same reasons.
i got nuked from reddit because of Emil Nolde of all people. Someone posted his painting on r/museum and i made a comment about the demented irony of his life - he was hardcore nazi but he ended up in Entartete Kunst exhibition - so somehow mods thought that’s condoning nazis and breaking the community rules - boom boom boom and here we are.
I have been banned from several comms on lemmy for saying very similar things. Most comms seem OK with it, but there are definitely a few conservative mods on lemmy that will protect their own.
pls stop using "conservative " as synonymous to fascist, thats what they want, there is nothing conservative about nazism
there are definitely some lemmy communities that are on absolute baby mode rules that ban for anything but verbally fellating eachother.
and unfortunately its some of the big ones like Technology and World News, not some niche no-care shitty corner ones.
It’s reddit. It’s run by nazis, for nazis.
I got permanently banned from Reddit for saying that Child predators should be killed.
I mean, they made admin (or supermod, can’t be arsed to remember) a known child-predator enabler and issued bans on anyone complaining that should have been a sign of where they were going…
100% fuck Reddit
I appreciated reddit very very narrowly, and entirely because every time I had a problem, the internet search result for said problem would be a reddit post with the solution. . Which isnt even true anymore, between people having scrambled posts before deleting accounts, and just the passage of time due to the friendly, helpful people disappearing.
beyond that interaction with reddit, it was a festering shitpile of hatred, bigotry, and pedophilia, and it continues to amaze me how it maintained such a popular position.
I miss having a place with niche communities that were active due to the sheer size of reddit. It’s very hard to get one going here - especially with the fragmentation of instances. Want to talk scuba diving? Do you go to the scuba community on .world or on .ml or what?
The community with the most posts last had a post 11 months ago. The one with the most users hasn’t had one in a year.
Being Lemmy, that post wasn’t really even about diving, but was about about Linus Torvalds making a FOSS dive logging app, because of course it fucking was.
Yeah I agree with all of that. Used to be that Reddit was the place to go to get questions answered… That time is long gone now.
now the place to get questions answered is discord.
Where the answers are now locked away, never to be found, archived, or otherwise made wildly available unless you specifically find that specific discord that contains it by pure happenstance and luck,… and for it all to disappear when the discord shuts down, Or someone just decides to delete their post, lost forever, never to be seen again.
God I miss web forums.
Just non-negotiable moral compasses in general. “Yeah, he’s obviously an obnoxious racist, chauvinist, paedophile, warmongering, corrupt fascist pig, but have you seen the Dow lately?”
“I was willing to excuse him when he was hauling my neighbours; both citizen’ and not away in unmarked vans to be put in concentration camps and subsequently deported without due process but I draw the line at paying more for gas and groceries.”
“Of course they can haul away people, they’re enforcing the law!” … “Hey, let me go, this is illegal!”
Not anymore, it’s not. People need to keep in mind that concentration camps were legal in Germany in the 30’s and 40’s.
I mean I grew up with that being told my grandparents were from another time and that’s why I couldn’t bring black friends around when he was there.
Since Geraldine’s got that covered, I’ll go with cheap groceries. $20 could feed you like a king.
Also that genocide is bad.
That we shouldn’t use our real names on the internet.

I want a new Wolfenstein game, that goes full arcade frenzy on creative ways to gruesomely kill Nazis.
Third places that aren’t bars.
You have to work a little bit harder at them today, but they can still be found.
Dog parks were my favorite place to interact with regulars back when I had a dog. Met lots of good friends and neighbors that way.
Volunteering can be great, too. I sometimes sign up for cooking/prep shifts at a local kitchen that feeds the community, and it’s an easy way to hang out with like minded people.
Independent bookstores and libraries are still around, too. They’re obviously more common in densely populated urban areas, but if you have them around you they can be great.
Clothes that change colour when you sweat.
Wait, your clothes don’t change color when you sweat?
We’re gonna be dropped into France, dressed as civilians. And once we’re in enemy territory, as a bushwhacking guerrila army,
we’re gonna be doing 1 thang and 1 thang only…
KILLIN NAZIS.
A Nazi ain’t got no humanity. They’re the foot soldiers of a Jew-hatin’, mass murderin’ maniac & they need to be dee stroyed.
If you see something, say something.If you see a Nazi, punch a Nazi.
When I was a kid it was general knowledge that you don’t talk about politics and religion around polite company.
Nowadays I can’t go buy a gallon of milk without someone asshole espousing their shitty beliefs to me, completely unsolicited. Motherfucker I don’t even know your name, why in the holy fucking hell would I care about how you feel about trans people in sports while we’re in the dairy aisle?
“You know what, this milk reminds me of another white fluid…”
Oh yeah. “I’m not vaccinated and neither are my kids.” Sorry, I didn’t get your name when you introduced yourself to me literally 10 minutes ago and immediately started your increasingly unhinged monologue.
Conservatives love to brag about their various bigotries. Many have even collected the whole set.
And lettuce that won’t make you shit yourself to death
