Funny how we still allow it today. Nuremberg trials just held those in WWII responsible. Look around at the world, it is filled with people that " just follow orders."
If you convince the public that one group is undeserving of human rights, then it's easier to convince them of the next group. It's also incredibly easy to expand the first group you've already dehumanized to include even more people than it did before.
Even if you think nazi's don't deserve human rights, what definition of nazi are you using? On the internet, especially Lemmy, people will take each other out of context, call each other nazis over the slightest disagreement and then strut around like they've somehow won the debate.
You say nazis don't deserve human rights but then people go around calling each other nazis over nothingburger disagreements which, according to your logic, immediately revokes their human rights.
And the jump to "the mods must be fascist supporters" is an absolute dive straight into insane troll logic.
Looking at the modlog, it was because the comment section was turning into a lynch mob, frothing at the mouth, and calling for more and more intense violence. Hiding behind "I'm totally joking, but..." isn't the magic shield you think it is.
No, this isn't Reddit, but that doesn't mean we're going to platform calls for violence and extremism.
Okay thanks I will take your word that those “violent comments” were there, since you hold all the evidence. I’m an adult and know if calls for violence go too far, I don’t need a mod to hide stuff from me and delete and lock comments without explanation.
That review hit the nail on the head: Why do all these people feel like they have to hide if they aren't doing anything wrong?
They know what they're doing is wrong. They are doing it anyway. They want you to believe they are "just following orders" or "just following the money" but they know what they're doing. They are not your neighbor, your family, your coworker. Maybe they were once, but they've sold their soul and they are not that anymore.
These people are irredeemable. They are the enemy of every good person on the planet, and the sooner everyone accepts that, the sooner we can do what is necessary to stop them. Fascism comes in all shapes and sizes and colors, it wears all sorts of flags and clothes, but it's still fascism down to the roots, it will kill or convert everything it touches into a tool for its own use, and it will use those tools to destroy everything good and kind in the world. Nevermind the woke mind-virus, this is the fascist mind-virus and it's absolutely real, we've seen it before, and we've seen what it can do.
We must fight it again. They want us to feel helpless and hopeless, but we're not. We won last time, and we will win again. But be prepared to fight hard, because we'll need to.
