Whatever you tell yourself to sleep at night. I am disgusted by your attitude.

So basically you just like to shit on less fortunate people. Class act.

Thank you, came here to say this.

Well. Partially it was exactly that though. One of the roots of European antisemitism is that christians were not allowed to take interest on money loans, and jews were not allowed to do many jobs, but by faith could take interest from non-jews. It's kind of convenient to find an excuse why people you owe money to are "sub-human" and should be murdered. And that was also a factor in Nazi-Germany.

Wealth, sure, but the Nazis weren't going after Jews because they had money.

That's not entirely matching what I learned from history books. The German Nazis absolutely commit robber/murders. They just extended their murder spree to those of the same ethnicity and other "out-groups" who didn't own anything to steal.

Again, what Israel is doing is definitely genocide, there's no arguments there, but it's not the same as the Holocaust.

No argument there, note my original wording "it no longer pales in comparison". The Gaza genocide already has millions of victims and tens of thousands of murdered palestinians. That's unfortunately starting to become visible even on a scale that takes the Holocaust as reference.

the Supreme court decided that hate speech is, in most cases protected (see Imminent Lawless Action test, Brandenburg V Ohio)

that court (in its present composition) is a bunch of fucked up privileged racist monsters.

No holocaust denial is necessary. Period.

well - there's an ongoing major genocide happening in Gaza that unfortunately no longer pales in comparison. It's not up there yet, and let's hope it never gets there, but I definitely see the point of the question of the previous comment.

I am lobbing rocks at you because of that admission.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 days ago

Oof. That hit way too close to home.

Turkiye is fucked

Not quite - or at least they have the best chance at recovery if (and that's a big if) they can oust Erdoğan and his cronies. If they manage that, Turkiye would soon be more democratic than most of the EU in its present state.

 

I am on a binge, listening to tons of Nigerian, Ugandan and Kenian music, and I am absolutely loving it. Why is this not playing on our (Western European) radio stations regularly?

Instead I have to regularly change stations because someone is trying to torture my ears with Ed Sheeran or similar BS. :(

 

Hadn't seen this before - I wonder if that was once on the potato outside and then grew closed?
