Auschwitz was in Poland. They were careful to keep all the concentration camps out of Germany
The six extermination camps where 2.7 million of their victims were murdered were all in Poland, but the Nazis did have hundreds (or dozens, if you count all of the subcamps near a larger one as being a single camp) of concentration camps in Germany.
Trump’s mass deportation and ‘poisoning the blood of our nation’ rhetoric is literally Hitlerian. Nazi as a term is not being watered down here.
I wouldn’t consider Harris a Nazi though, just another Neo liberal. Although the Democrats shift on the border, conceding to the republican narrative, and the current stance on Israel/Palestine is still concerning
My issue wasn’t with calling Trump a Nazi (I find that assessment correct), but calling them both Nazis. Yes, the rightward shift is concerning, but the false equivalence put up here understates Trump’s danger and heavily overstates Harris’s.
Yeah that’s fair, I agree. I think it’s important to highlight the rachet effect when it comes to Democrats, especially on harmful policies like immigration and foreign policy, but it’s also important to recognize the difference between them and the Republicans. The only avenue for progressive change is with the Democratic Party, but only with enough voters demanding better representation
Closer than the two nazis we get to pick from
The fact that this comment is getting upvoted is why I fucking hate this place.
Go watch an ideologically flattering super hero movie
Then why are you here?
God, I despise the watering down of the term “nazi”.
Am I watering down the word nazi or are you watering down the crime of genocide?
*** Rwanda partially checks in to offer a viewpoint on non-nazi genocide ***
*** Bosnian serbs would like you to forget their history over a few rough years ***
*** A few Armenians have something to say ***
The list of genocides is long, and 1940s were just one entry in a litany of cases.
Do you have a better term to describe people supporting the systematic murder and ethnic cleansing of people trapped in a concentration camp?
Nazi is the most accurate term to describe Harris and Trump.
Saw this outrageously wrong-headed post, but then I saw linkerbaan and knew it was just state-sponsored discord.
Carry on, comrade. You get the day’s wage. Feed your family.
There is no Genocide in Ba Sing Se.
Nazism has to come from the Auschwitz region of Germany or else it’s just sparkling fascism
branding is important, yo!
I get the joke but Auschwitz was in Poland. They were careful to keep all the concentration camps out of Germany.

Fair point.

I think you accidentally double posted.
