Protecting the garden.

The Nazis never lost, they just got slapped on the wrists and were told to be more discreet and tactful about their imperial interests.

Not being directly charged and found guilty isn't the trump card they think it is. Most Nazis were never punished, many top brass went on to shape the west into what it is today.

It frustrates me to no end when people cluelessly argue that since doctors and pencil pushers and janitors are also in militaries, that somehow makes it better and or even a non-violent institution.

The people who make the food for or distribute the salaries of imperialist scum are, by virtue of their material support, also imperialist scum.

Based on this analogy it's appropriate to call every member of the US and NATO militaries a Nazi.

Then how is it possible that humanity developed society and technology for millennia by cooperating and being a social species, but all of a sudden human nature is a greedy selfish free for all? Could it be that capitalism rewards and even requires corruption and exploitation?

I should like to put it on record that I have never been able to dislike Hitler. Ever since he came to power — till then, like nearly everyone, I had been deceived into thinking that he did not matter — I have reflected that I would certainly kill him if I could get within reach of him, but that I could feel no personal animosity. The fact is that there is something deeply appealing about him.

The comparison to the carbon or ecological footprint may be apt. The concept came from British Petroleum and was a successful propaganda campaign to individualize the blame of climate change. In many respects its the same with digital footprint. Sure you can minimize your own footprint, of whichever type, by making huge personal sacrifices, but that won't have much effect on the bigger pircite. The superstructure of ecological destruction or an internet that is used to surveil and sell cannot be changed without revolution.

Yesterday's thread on here about this same incident had a couple lost .worlders already making good on that trope.
