Ah, so you won’t hear any Nazis directly. You’ll just get second hand Nazism from people that are totally comfortable conversing with neo-Nazis. Yeah that’s much better.
No, you’re right… some don’t openly oppose gay rights. Yet. They’re merely xenophobic racists.
Linguist Ruth Wodak has stated that the populist parties rising across Europe do so for different reasons in different countries. In an article published in March 2014, she divided these political parties into four groups: “parties [which] gain support via an ambivalent relationship with fascist and Nazi pasts” (in, e.g., Austria, Hungary, Italy, Romania, and France), parties which “focus primarily on a perceived threat from Islam” (in, e.g., the Netherlands, Denmark, Poland, Sweden, and Switzerland), parties which “restrict their propaganda to a perceived threat to their national identities from ethnic minorities” (in, e.g., Hungary, Greece, Italy, and the United Kingdom), and parties which “endorse a fundamentalist Christian conservative-reactionary agenda” (in, e.g., Poland, Romania, and Bulgaria).[8] According to The Economist, the main attraction of far-right parties in the Scandinavian countries is the perception that their national culture is under threat.
Which part is confusing you? You seem well acquainted with Nazism so I’ll assume it’s the “second hand” part.
A definition of ‘second hand’ is ‘indirect’ or ‘from an intermediate source’. Ergo, in my comment i meant they would be getting talking points from people who don’t think they’re Nazis but converse frequently with Nazis.
Just gonna pretend that the rest of the thread doesn’t exist, are you?
We’re talking about the high number of neo-nazis on Gab and their influence on Gab in general. Could someone have a conversation with a Nazi about the weather? Maybe, but the odds of the phrase “Jewish space lasers” coming up is significantly higher than in a conversation with someone who isn’t a Nazi.
But to be clear, i did not say “conversing with Nazis makes people spread their talking points to others”. I said they would be getting talking points from Nazis. Nothing is “making” people spread Nazism.
Now you’ve crossed from being disingenuous into outright lying.
I did not assume you’re a Nazi, i said “you seem well acquainted with Nazism” which, based on your eagerness to defend them, is accurate.
You have not once expressed that you “support everyone having a right to express their opinion” in this thread, nor even in this post. You’ve merely attempted to employ the Socratic method (rather clumsily) to excuse Nazism.
When you’re done pretending you’re the victim here and you’re ready to have a genuine conversation let me know.
We’re Polish living in Germany and were invited to a wedding in India by a friend of ours. The groom is Indian and the bride is Mexican, to make things more complicated. It’s planned at the end of November. That’s the first time going to India for us, we don’t know much about the culture. We don’t know what we should...
I went to a Sikh wedding a while ago, the groom’s family was Sikh and the bride’s family was from Vancouver. After the service the bride and groom sat on the floor while people talked to them from behind. As they were turned to talk to the people behind them everyone else would pass in front of them and leave money in their laps. There were no gifts.
They also did a North American type reception a few days later and there were gifts for that but they were registered.
SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — California Gov. Gavin Newsom has vetoed a bill to require human drivers on board self-driving trucks, a measure that union leaders and truck drivers said would save hundreds of thousands of jobs in the state.
Might be better to just put the executives of those corporations in prison instead tho. I keep hearing how they’re worth their enormous salaries so they must be the ones responsible.
I didn’t either. Found it four pages deep. under “other privacy settings”, nonchalantly placed at the bottom of the last page. And i just did a search for that kind of thing two weeks ago and somehow missed it.
I saw someone on Reddit wondering why the community was so sure of Trek going dark again with Paramount not doing so well financially. Seeing the response was unfortunate as most people feel that it might be a bad time for Trek. And I guess it makes sense with the Hollywood strikes as well....

Reddit seems all doom and gloom on the topic but what about Lemmy? And the future of Star Trek?
