Political Memes

And they still didn't get it.

It's not even an allegiance to "National Socialism" or the NSDAP, per se.

Some people are aroused by the prospect of telling people, with impunity, that they or their group are in charge of everything forever and everyone has to applaud it on pain of torture and death.

They have a perverse, sometimes sexual, stimulation at the prospect of threatening, abusing, and submitting people to their doctrine of what they unilaterally deem to be the natural order of things.

Simply put, they feed, at every level, on the pain and misery they cause.

Naziism is just an ideology that appeals to some common instincts, which becomes an issue when enough of them are in precarity that they warm up to making the ideas policy.

It doesn't make for a very good state. Incompetence and nepotism rises to the top. Data driven science is tossed aside for ideology-driven rhetoric. Officials govern on vibes resulting in famine, plague and war. Also the country turns into the very kind of shithole it accuses other nations of being.

Eventually, you have bombers from rival countries blocking the the sun over the capitol. International tribunals exercise judgement and enforce their law, since the nazis failed to provide rule of law to their own. Children pick up pieces of the trainwreck.

And we learn (or fail to learn) once again why we don't let the fascist autocrats take over, even when they are very, very rich.

We in the US have a choice: clean up the mess early, or let China clean it up for us. And China will make us jolly sorry if we make them clean it up. We'll be their buggery bitch for a century or two at least.

Well, not like it changed from before ww2. Well, maybe it did for the next 2 weeks.

lol, he slaughtered that whole plane of people in season 1.

These people are just dumb as bricks and need it literally spelled out for them to understand anything.

They barely understand text, let alone heavy handed subtext.

I read something ages ago, some study or something, not sure how legit, and it basically came to the conclusion that the only way to stop people from liking and associating with Nazi ideology is to not expose them to it, because there are some people that will like it if exposed, and it can't really be stopped.

Thats because they've been conditioned to view themselves as the victim. When you point out that they are doing harm to others it really fucks with their entire sense of self and they get defensive.

This is also why they need to hear the truth. We cannot keep coddling these snowflakes just because it makes them feel more comfortable and gives them a false sense of security.

Imagine it like you're meeting a kid who has been homeschooled and sheltered from the outside world for their entire lives. They often say and believe things that don't line up with reality because their view on the outside world has relied only on what their parents were willing to tell them.

The gradual shift from slant to widespread gaslighting and narrative control that we're all seeing in most American news and media in 2025, is just a glimpse into what the right have been experiencing for decades. We view it as alarming now, but imagine how you'll feel after a few years.

After a while it just becomes the normal/default. Imagine generations growing up dependent on this shit to keep them informed about the rest of the world. They're not going to be happy about hearing the truth, but they need to hear it. All you can and should do is state facts, and ignore any attempts to turn every conversation into a Fox News vs CNN debate.

If they continue to escalate, just disengage like you would a child throwing a tantrum. If/when they're ready to calm down and speak rationally, then repeat. Stick to facts. Present evidence if they're willing to listen. Do not let them twist the narrative or pivot to a different subject in order to distract. At the end of the day, they have no evidence to back up the things they say. If they can't present their evidence, then the conversation is over.

If they still want to be angry and blame someone, tell them they should take it up with the abusive patriarchal oligarchs who manipulated them and distorted their reality in order to control them.

And when pressed: "I was just joking!"

You are sre 100% correct. And btw, it's related.

In regards to eugenics, some may have some parts where they disagree on the definition of terms. I'm not talking about people believing Idiocracy was right on the premise,nor those who say there should be licenses to be a parent. Those are both eugenics or eugenics lite imo.

However, you can get genetic testing to see if your child might have a debilitating condition. Now first to lay out my ... Bias? I don't plan to have kids and therefore don't feel pressured to have a firm opinion on genetic testing. I do support abortion rights. However, some may define choosing to abort because you learn your child may have a debilitating disease or a very painful life to be eugenics, while others may not agree.

There's also people who believe in gene editing before birth, like the (disgraced iirc) Chinese scientist who tried to use CRISPR to prevent AIDS transferring from mother to daughter (nevermind the fact we have drugs to do that anyway). I think broadly speaking editing gene sequences could be considered eugenics, but some may disagree.
