Stop calling us Nazis! (while paraphrasing NAZI slogans after translating them to English)
CherryChipX on
Nothing like a bit of controversy to spice up the morning! But really, who approved that slogan? Did anyone think to maybe do a quick Google search first? 🤦♂️

This is what happens when Nazi Germany is your role model.

The DoL’s twitter page is constantly posting far right/nazi-like slogans.
Probably run by some edgy 17yo intern

It probably says more that there are a number of Nazi slogans used that the article might be referring to.

Looks like the words, ‚Anti Fascists‘, may have some meaning after all this time. Nazism showing their true beliefs. Looking forward to the similar Nuremburg Trials to prosecute prominent leaders of Nazi America for war crimes.

WH AI database is filled with racist/bigoted terms and “facts.”
Putting the possibility of nazi origin aside (crazy statement) that shit doesn’t even make sense. One heritage? ONE heritage? What one heritage do we share?

USA Today, like reading them in hotels and airports… But where is the Boston Globe or Houston Chronicle….Everyone should be running this story.

If it walks like a duck, talks like a duck, and looks like a duck, it’s probably a fucking NAZI!!!

Let’s see…
* Nazi imagery used in campaign material *accidentally*
* Nazi solute given by party advocates and followers being *too enthusiastic*
* Nazi ship hanging on wall of political appointee and advisor
* Party leader suggests „Hitler did some good things too“ and wanted the same kind of loyalty Hitler’s generals gave him
* Language mirroring known Nazi policies used for recruitment media
* Language mirroring known Nazi practices used in mass media and public appearances
* Cabinet member has prominent white Christian nationalist tattoos
* Administration requesting a list of the jews going to a prominent school seemingly ignorant of the connotation
* Administration suggesting their forces are „going door to door“ as part of anti-immigrant enforcement seemingly ignorant of the connotation and historical connection to Nazi actions
* Government agents abducting US Citizens, threatening them, beating them, shooting, detaining them without allowing them their rights, and also killing them for their lack of compliance to an agent’s unlawful or contradictory demands
* Government asking for documentation from public museums to ensure that „improper ideology“ isn’t on display
* Increased use of language by the government and its agents suggesting opposition are demons, not human, animals, terrorists, pedophiles, murderers, rapists, lunatics, etc. as a way to dehumanize a group of people.
I dunno, feels sort of Nazi adjacent at the very least.

Okay but instead of just being „under fire“ can someone actually get fucking fired? I’m so tired of this regime getting away with everything.

‘Work will set you free” is that the one?
I’ll let you folks guess where the German version used to hang.

You call it „under fire“. They see it as a compliment that they’re effectively getting their fascist message across: _Ein Volk, Ein Reich, Ein Führer_
