Eternally funny and accurate

[-] Nakoichi@hexbear.net 6 points 3 weeks ago

OK mercury in retrograde is sending me

[-] miz@hexbear.net 68 points 3 weeks ago

false, Germany has been backing the genocide in Palestine so it is not OK to be proud to be German

[-] plinky@hexbear.net 47 points 3 weeks ago

germans are already plenty prideful in how much they've learned and changed from the mistakes of 1930s.

(they didn't, they only care about jewish part of holocaust)

[-] x87_floatingpoint@hexbear.net 41 points 3 weeks ago

I honestly have more hatred for germany-cool than I do for amerikkka because of this. Smug liberal worms who talk about how much they've learned from their history and then go on to be satanically racist towards anyone who is Arab or Chinese or [insert whoever the media told them to hate this time]. I have not seen anyone else be as smug and nasty about it as the Germans.

[-] VILenin@hexbear.net 16 points 3 weeks ago

The only problem the average German has with the Holocaust is that it killed white people.

I sure as hell don’t see any Germans waxing poetic about how much they’ve learned from committing genocide in Namibia.

Germany should have never been allowed to reunify.

[-] KimJongGoku@hexbear.net 52 points 3 weeks ago

It absolutely should have reunified, just the other way around madeline-sadeline

It is not, in fact, okay to have german pride

[-] Dessa@hexbear.net 20 points 3 weeks ago

The sole exception would be Bismark pride, but only in regards to the donut specifically.

[-] TraschcanOfIdeology@hexbear.net 3 points 3 weeks ago

And the pizza, because it has an egg in the center.

Honorary Bismark

“I’m proud to be white.” said the based patriot.

“I’m proud to be a person of color.” Said the worthless woke reverse-racist goody-two-shoes SJW! I hate you I hate you die die die!

[-] AcidSmiley@hexbear.net 38 points 3 weeks ago

What makes this particularly dangerous is the open support from somebody from the US government. You see, like the NSDAP before them, the AfD does not wield the influence to govern on its own, the German electoral system makes coalitions practically a given. And the AfD used to be shunned by center-right parties due to fears of them being too close to Russia. US endorsement means that the CDU, Germany's strongest party and the staunchest licker of Amerikan boot you can imagine, might see the last reason they ruled out a coalition falter.

[-] peppersky@hexbear.net 23 points 3 weeks ago

Trump being in the white house again and having so many corporations behind him has seemingly really emboldened the "center-right" to go even more ham on any of their ridiculous and short sighted policy goals. I'd give it 50/50 whether we get a CDU/AfD coalition

[-] infuziSporg@hexbear.net 35 points 3 weeks ago

wow, two nazi rallies for this guy in one week

[-] underisk@hexbear.net 29 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Encouraging nationalism in Germany seems like a bad move.

[-] godlessworm@hexbear.net 2 points 3 weeks ago

not if you’re a nazi

[-] AOCapitulator@hexbear.net 27 points 3 weeks ago

idk but someone called this when the musk is barred from sending DOGE stuff to trump breakup post went up, I guess he is gonna buddy up with eurofash

[-] narr1@lemmy.ml 23 points 3 weeks ago

He's gone to the roots! Though, if you're a person who goes to far-right gatherings it's not ok to be proud, were you a citizen of any country.

[-] technocrit@lemmy.dbzer0.com 21 points 3 weeks ago

Nationalism is a plague regardless of what state violently controls you.

[-] bbnh69420@hexbear.net 24 points 3 weeks ago

Do you hold this stance for anti-colonial struggles that used nationalism as a focal point?

[-] ClathrateG@hexbear.net 20 points 3 weeks ago

No it's not

Proud to be gwrman actually translates to

"Bababahchcchtungugüügenschniperliebersneederfeedgluglguglguptooey"

In german

[-] ThermonuclearEgg@hexbear.net 13 points 3 weeks ago

I believe it literally translates to "I love committing genocides and can't wait to do some more"

[-] Lemmygradwontallowme@hexbear.net 7 points 3 weeks ago

Kraut-obsessed dutchmen

Not to be confused with their more successful tulip-obsessed nederlanders, erroneously called that.

[-] a_party_german@hexbear.net 3 points 3 weeks ago

man these Germans have word for everything!

[-] bungalowtill@lemmy.dbzer0.com 15 points 3 weeks ago

It’s amazing. And it’s not that long ago that a scenario where the richest man in the world would promote a German Nazi party was outside anybody’s wildest imagination.

[-] Enjoyer_of_Games@hexbear.net 13 points 3 weeks ago

Rich owner of an american car manufacturer supporting a german nazi party who could imagine!

[-] Collatz_problem@hexbear.net 2 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

I just automatically assume that anyone rich enough is a cryptofascist, so I was not surprised in the slightest.

[-] SerLava@hexbear.net 6 points 3 weeks ago

Let me be clear:

No it is fucking not
