I live in NY. I legit only know 2 conservatives who are my 2 out of 4 best friends. That's all. My other friends are lefties, my customers are, and so my coworkers and boss. These ppl mock conservatives and their views, most without knowing i am one.. I noticed they have no goddamn idea what I believe in. They don't actually know what I stand for, save for what the news tells them.
Something else I realized; these ppl believe so deeply in their views and how virtuous they are. They so fully believe that they're right, and that their ideas are inherently righteous. If you disagree you must be wrong. Some ppl if u disagree just turn to violence.
I guess the point is, all this leftist influence makes me have to ground myself in reality. It makes me think if all these ppl believe this how can they be right? There's no one on my side, no one thinks the way I do. It makes me a bit sad to see it. I have to remember to ground in reality, and remember what i know to be true: That there are millions of ppl in this country, amd even all over the world who stand with me.
There's witnesses still alive today, the buildings are literally physically still there in Germany, you can actually see for yourself... there's thousands of primary accounts from all sides and untampered pictures and videos... its not hard to find if you look, and frankly, I don't feel like looking at those pictures any more than I had to in school. Death camps aren't even all of it, if you went to school in America I know they burned it all into your brain too, its actually quite hard to overstate how evil it was. Don't let your hatred of communists turn into Nazi apologism, and take a long look at the narrative/agenda you're choosing to accept brother
What are you talking about? Witnesses to what? That Nazis were mean?
Are you trying to turn this into a holocaust thread?
I know that in school I learned that 11,000,000 died in the holocaust. Then later I learned that that number was an intentional lie. The fact that this was an intentional lie, by someone trying to popularize the holocaust, isn't even up for debate.
Why did Jessie Smollet lie? Why is there tremendous value in being a victim? When did that start?
Have you ever stopped to consider that you might have been brainwashed to believe a narrative? Have you ever considered what that would look like?
Look at all the evidence of the 2020 election. You're a nutjob if you think there was even the possibility of irregularities.
Wait is this not a holocaust thread already? What is your point then?
My point was that by holding up Nazis as some ultimate evil, it allows leftists to not only evade the evil label, but to place that label exclusively on the right, where most people seem to think the Nazis fall.
We need to stop using the leftist narrative and start enforcing our own narrative, that leftism, Marxism, communism, postmondernism is the greatest evil to ever gurgle up from humanity and must be rejected, absolutely.
If they keep calling us Nazis and we keep referencing the Nazis as the ultimate evil, only to them try and explain how we're not Nazis, we will continue to lose.
Ah ok, I'm glad we didn't get into Holocaust denial shit. But yeah I agree completely.
It's just that holding up Nazis as an ultimate evil does not mean leftists evade the evil label at all-- don't allow yourself to accept the idea that Nazism is the opposite of communism, because thats what leftists want you to believe, and they argue in bad faith.
Accepting that narrative plays into their hands because we start to say things like "Nazis weren't that bad" or "we must judge their actions in context" which downplay Nazis as an ultimate evil in order to say communism is bad. Then they get ammunition to call us actual Nazis, which would be warranted in that case.
Anyone worth talking to knows Nazism isn't related to the right wing in America, and no one needs to play the "who is the worse evil empire" olympics. The "narrative" we should be following should not be reactionary like leftists are; just look at the reality and we come to the conclusion that Stalin and Hitler were both evil, for the simple reason they orchestrated genocide. Downplaying Nazism is not only counterproductive, but it makes us lose faster.
