    it’s not hard for modern fascists to repudiate Hitler. fascism is an ideology obsessed with power and display of power, and Hitler is unambiguously a loser. also, his style of fascism is extremely antiquated in the modern day.

    Hahahaha he even framed it in the most fascist way possible, and the hogs still came running to the trough! “Hitler’s worst crime was getting so many Aryans killed!”

      No joke, they think that “world Jewery” declared war on Germany first and that therefore Germany was just defending itself or something completely insane like that

      The baby brain take here seems to be that Germany was only defending itself from Poland’s aggression (Ab 5 Uhr 45 wird zurückgeschossen - Hitler) and that England and France declared on small bean Germany first.

      And of course it is a dogwhistle about the jews, it always is.

      Denouncing hitler probably has absolutely no harm to a modern fascist movement, and only gain. Modern fascists don’t have to call what they want to build fascism, they can just be esoteric and take power, they can hide behind “we denounced hitler” to befuddle people about why they’re being called fascists, this muddies the water on fascism.

      This is quite unlike communists who are forever tied to previous communist projects and must defend them or else have people assume “communism is nice on paper but its application has proven that it doesn’t work”. The fascists are unburdened by the constraints of honesty.

        The power to just fucking lie all the time, and have a core that is fine with the lies and bullshit because in a liberal society they have nothing to lose.

        Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert.

        The worst thing about this is these fucking squealing shitheads always go

        "uhm akshully Mussolini was a socialist, so communists are the same as fascists smuglord "

        No amount of disproving them convinces anyone that these fascists are being obtuse and lying. It’s so smug too.

      The Hogfather is the Discworld Santa clause equivalent with a novel about him thst was made into a very charming TV miniseries. The Hogfather is cool, you leave him turnips and sherry and he leaves gifts.

      He use to sell coffee made by the Zapatistas and would talk them up in his sales pitch, although he tried to make them seem like American-style libertarians who were rebelling against the Mexican government
