Well, the official narrative about WW2 is not accurate, but your caution is warranted.
Kind of strange that we can't challenge that particular example of narrative shaping? Not examining the history of Antifa makes it a bit harder to counter them in the marketplace of ideas.
We're aware history is written by the winners. Both communists and the fascists were guilty of unspeakable crimes against humanity. Why do you guys always complain about not being able to talk about it? Like just get to a point.
Antifa isn't present in the marketplace of ideas, they rely on terrorism and undemocratic tactics to get their way. All of their ideas are absurd on their face, don't worry about that.
Point out any bad actors, get to your point. Don't just say "ww2 narrative isn't accurate", well great, that doesn't tell me anything.
That's a BS tactic. Who are "you guys"? I'm an independent thinker and resent you characterizing me based on assumptions. That's intellectually lazy.
The rest of your comment asks some very good questions, and they deserve real answers.
I say we're not allowed to talk about it because there are actual laws all over the world that prevent people from questioning anything about the official narrative. That's pretty telling.
You also hear the Holocaust described as the worst crime against humanity in history. It has become an axiom. And it was horrible. But Stalin and Mao killed many times more of their own citizens. Why is this not taught? Why aren't those considered "holocausts".
Antifa is in the marketplace of ideas. The MSM was allowed to ignore their threat. Jerry Nadler said they don't exist. But they do exist, and knowing their history matters.
The real history is that Germany was being destroyed by Marxists in the 1920's. They were decadent and intent on the destruction of all of Germany's norms and traditions. A Nationalist movement emerged to confront that and there were street battles between the original Antifa and the Nazi Brownshirts.
Antifa emigrated to the US and we are now facing a very real threat that nobody seems to want to talk about. "Peaceful protests" seems to ring a bell.
I'm certainly not pro-Nazi. My own grandparents came to the US to get away from Nazi Germany, and no, we're not Jewish. The need for a Nationalist movement to counter communism is one thing, but what it became is a stain on history.
What is happening in our country is a Bolshevik Marxist attack, and I suggest that the people who are preventing that conversation from happening are in on the subversion.
Maybe I shouldn't say "you guys" I did it because it seems to always be the same thing. Someone seems to allude to jews being the real enemy, complains about not being able to talk about it, and then disappears or starts swearing.
I'm glad you've thought through these issues and actually have something to say. Because of what you wrote I understand that the Frankfurt school which poisons America was actually a product of Weimar not Nazi Germany, makes more sense to me now.
On this board we're aware that the communists body count is higher than the Nazi's. Marxism has so infiltrated our education and journalism that few people are taught that. That said, I find what the Nazi's did exceedingly despicable.
From my limited knowledge, the Nazi's beat up and stole from and raped and butchered and gassed people based on their genetics. The communists crimes against humanity at least weren't based on genetics from what I know, but ideology. What the Nazi's did is at a basic level more repugnant to Americans who believe that all men were created equal.
Shame what the left has turned nationalism into. American patriotism is the worlds greatest hope against marxist poison. We have so much to be thankful for and esteem here, but they twist our citizens minds to hate our country, hate anyone who thinks well of it as it was founded.
McCarthy was onto something. Anyone paying attention knows this is a marxist attack. There is no value in making it about race though, we need to counter their ideas not their genetics, and I'm sure you agree. That's my only concern when this gets brought up, but I want to know more accurate history
Oh look another handshake trying to jin up anti-semitism. Ever occur to you that you're the problem and not patriots?

Have I spelled it out clearly enough?
Feel free to challenge any of those assertions.
