MODERATORS
The Nazis never got more than 37% of the vote. A majority is more than 50%. In their last election they got less than 33%. Hitler's appointment was not democratic. I don't give a shit of the laws if the Weimar Republic allowed it. That does not make it democratic.
We all know Wikipedia is the epitome of truth. 🙄 He was a democratic socialist by the time he was killed and never supported any sort of dictatorship. He was not pushing communism when he was president. Nationalization of basic resources, sure but that is a fast cry from communism. It is silly that the US even got involved. The Vuskovic Plan was failing and the next election likely would have resulted in a right wing government anyway.
You should give a shit what the democracy in weimar allowed, that's the point.
But you don't care about the conversation, you want to brainwash people into thinking commies don't want lgbtq+ killed.
When you are the only one here who is publicly stating your support for a coup that brought a mass-murdering lunatic into power you do not have the moral high ground on anything at all.
Second lunatic was way better than the first one would ever have been. Just because we never got to see what that specific fascist would have done to his people doesn't mean we can't see what other fascists have done and extrapolate from there.
So you're supporting an actual, proven far-right extremist mass murderer over a democratically elected leader who didn't kill anyone because in your head you imagines crimes he never carried out. That is the typical mindset of a fascist.
Better than the guy who refutably would have killed more :)
