      Nazis sent a delegation to the US to investigate segregation. They concluded that segregation was too extreme and would not be accepted by Germans.

      America was too racist for the Nazis.

    You know it’s funny, I do a job where I calculate values of business related numbers for various timeframes in excel all day and I’m so uncomfortable with this fucking number than when it’s like, for example “between 5pm-7:30pm we did 148.8 units of work” I’ll be like “hmmm, surely management would actually like to know what was happening from 4:30pm-5pm also. Uh, between 4:30pm-7:30pm we did 167.2 units of work. Yeah much better.”

    It doesn’t happen every day, but like a couple times a year a calculation randomly comes out to this and I can’t fuckin abide it

    Kinda yeah. Less so than the kraut or Italian kind because capitalist hyperindividualism has been so heavily fried into American brains that the necessary mass political action needed to cause political transformation is as of this moment pretty fucking improbable. Something that cuts all ways on the political spectrum as the concept of “mass action” to the American population is fucking pulling the vote lever.

    It just means a lot of the enemy’s actions are going to be deprived from individualistic acts of violent political terror with the hopes of inspiring more copycat actions. Akin to trying to cause a bacterial plague.

      I’ve seen a small business where the owner was Chinese add eighty-eight cents to every price, I figured it was just an “eight is a lucky number, especially for money” thing. The fact that there are so many other 8’s here makes me wonder if it’s something like that.

      I would honestly find it more hitler-detector if it was JUST 1488 and all the other prices were normal.

      I could go both ways with this case. A few months ago I bought some random items from a store and it came to a 14.88 euro total so this number can definitely come randomly but like it’s definitely a bit weird to give exactly a $1488 discount, why not round it up to $1500?
