Klufas blames the branding of Hunka as a Nazi on "Russian disinformation," adding, "the fact that he was a soldier does not mean that he was a Nazi." He also said there was nothing wrong with Parliament applauding a man "who fought for his country."

Can we applaud Russian soldiers then?

the fact that he was a soldier does not mean that he was a Nazi

WTF. This is trying to apply the clean Wehrmacht myth on Waffen-SS volunteers. That the professor is saying only members of the NSDAP were Nazis is something that would be crossed out as wrong due to reduction in any homework you have to write at school or uni over here.

White people coming out as big fans of Nazis after decades of pretending to hate them might be the biggest outcome of this war.

Everything that is politically inconvenient for our ruling hegemony in this moment is Russian disinformation at worst, Soros funded as a middle ground, and Chinese propaganda at best. You don't even have to justify or prove it. Just claim it and it becomes as real as the ground under your feet.

He's only a real Nazi if he comes from the Nazi region of Germany, otherwise he's a sparkling fascist

Normal response: “The SS guy who slaughtered poles was a Nazi.”

Liberal response: “well, ackshually, we have to first consider Plato’s dialogues. For example,”

Liberal trend in 2023 - mental gymnastics to defend Nazis.

Liberal trend in 2024 - mental gymnastics to defend being Nazis themselves

Could you imagine this treatment for ISIS? "Well, he volunteered to join ISIS but we don't know if he specifically did any crimes and you could see why am Iraqi would join ISIS to fight against Americam occupation. Anyway, ISIS beheaded a ton of people lol."

This shit is why liberal inteligencia are a disease. They serve the purpose of defending fascism. No western academia is free of this shit. I know this is Canada and not the EU, but this is why the entire "progressive" smiling liberals and socdems are so fucking evil. They are the moderate wing of fascism STILL

"He fought for an unit created by a nazi".

He WAS a Nazi. In the Waffen SS. Which he joined voluntarily.

[-] o_d@lemmygrad.ml 32 points 2 years ago

He ~~WAS~~ IS a Nazi.

If he was a changed person, he would not have been there.

I hate how in the 21st century, nazism has become so popular that if you announce to normies that you disagree with nazis, at best you will be lectured on how you're being a contrarian, and most likely you will be accused of being one of the BAD authoritarians....because you dislike the GOOD authoritarians.

[-] GarbageShoot@hexbear.net 14 points 2 years ago

It is certainly automatic on many parts of, uh, certain websites that you'll get responses to the effect of "the communists killed way more" and "at least the Nazis didn't kill their own people".
