There are not more Nazis now than there were before. The meaning of ‘Nazi’ has just been widely broadened.
@PrettyHateMachine You’re just a fanboy. I bet you root for Darth Vader too.
@PrettyHateMachine I don’t doubt it, but I also don’t think it matters very much.
@alex @PrettyHateMachine
I definitelly get where you're comming from, since history is nothing then a bunch of event that do not affect us directly anymore, and cannot be changed.
The problem is, that nazis being an evil incarnate is base for a lot of ""modern mythology"" that drives the way people think.
It begain with "hitler bad", went through "discrimination agains jews is bad", and "any discrimination is bad" to modern "discrimination against nazis is good, and every white guy is a nazi".
And that is why it is important to start attacking this mythos at its hystorical core.
@amerika @alex @PrettyHateMachine
No, that core is that it was mere differences between people that caused the war to start...
But yeah, equality is a horrible myth. But that one will be harder to fight against.
@LukeAlmighty @alex @PrettyHateMachine
I don't see any signs that anyone is seriously fighting it.
They're too busy trying to signal it to get approval from the herd.
@amerika @alex @PrettyHateMachine
That is because it is hard to see modern mythology for what it is. Most people never thought about these topics.
It's like wanting average Joe's opinion on Quantum entertainment... It's not going to happen.
@LukeAlmighty @alex @PrettyHateMachine
that core is equality
