I don't understand how there can be black people in favor of Hitler. How do they rationalize praising someone who would have genocided them?
"I'm different, he wants to clean the dirty ones"
"why am I being loaded into a train I'M DIFFERENT"
"Excuse me, there seems to be a mistake..."
"No, no, BAD LEOPARD, eat those other faces instead!!"
You think we’ll be using trains?
I think ICE uses planes.
Self driving teslas
Yeah, good idea, we can even make long lines of them in a well-organized convoy. Maybe the ones in front and back can control the ones in the middle.
Then to make sure they stay in formation, we can physically link them together, but with a bit of slack to turn and such.
In fact, we could even make special roads for these convoys so they get maximum fuel efficiency while also preventing them from accidentally drifting off of it. These roads would be exclusively used by these tesla convoys.
When these roads have to intersect with normal ones, we will give the convoys right of way, with some sort of movable barrier blocking the other cars from crossing.
Yeah, this idea is shaping up. Imagine all the people and cargo we could move with this hyper-efficient system.
You know, if we made individual cars larger so they could hold more people or cargo, this idea could get really efficient!
I really enjoy those "tech bros reinvent..." memes
Can we have levers which toggle which direction the group of vehicles travel on? We could then rest people on different paths and have their loved ones make life altering decisions by choosing to pull or push the lever.
The same reason poor people can be in favor of conservatives.
You can’t fix stupidity smh.
History lessons in the US focus on the Jewish victims of the Holocaust to the exclusion of all others. Plenty of people don't know that gay, trans, leftist, or non-white people were genocided.
Even white people. Slavs for instance. Anyone considered crippled. Political enemies.
My mom's uncle, white Norwegian, was put in a Nazi camp during WWII. History lesson.
They were the primary target and most Jews died in the Holocaust. That's being said I think people of color who are Nazis tend play mental gymnastics to ignore the racism. I think it is the younger crowd who wasn't hunted by hate groups.
The real thing to note is that Nazi Germany condemned large groups of people to die. When society is ok with singling out a group of people anything can happen.
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar called out this behavior back in 2020.
isn't he in that copaganda show?
I don't know. I don't watch TV.
Yeah, but isn't he Christian? I think "Jesus Walks" was one of his songs. Jesus was absolutely Jewish and Christianity was a sect of Judaism for decades, maybe even hundreds of years. I'll never understand hating the people that founded your religion.
He's mentally unwell, that's how.
Its so sad when people can't afford therapy
True. It’s also sad when people who can afford therapy refuse to go
Nah, then fuck em.
EDIT : fuck his music too, it sucks ass.
He got inspired by the Black Hebrew Israelites, a pseudo-religous group that believes african americans are decendents of jews.
If I recall correctly from his infowars Interview (or somewhere else around that time), he came to the conclusion that since he's a jew, he gets to decide if hitler was a good guy or not. It didn't make much sense and I don't recall why exactly he came to the conclusion that he as a good guy, but I think he said something like "There's only love, so he cant be a bad guy".
It's possible he thinks black americans are the real jews, that hitler was doing a good thing with killing imposters.
You omitted the part where his girlfriend sucked his balls in public whilst traversing the waters of Venice in a gondola.
That should be topmost when defining his mental prowess.
He all but forced his wife to show up naked to the Grammy’s - there’s video where it looks like she’s trying to argue with him about it.
Plus that “wives sell pussy for life” line - a big part of this is misogyny. He’s got some extremely disturbed attitudes towards sex and women, and is dangerous.
In the case of Kanye... fell astoundingly far down the antisemitic conspiracy rabbit hole.
Before he went turbo-mega-ultra Hitler fanbo1 on Alex Jones... he was saying a lot of shit about how the entire entertainment industry was run by a cabal of Jews who secretly fucked over himself and other black artists in particular.
... He completely lost his mind in this process and has arguably been having the world's longest sustained, continuous, psychotic break (I think he's been far more obviously just unhinged bonkers for longer than Elon?).
He legitimately hated and hates Jews so much that the actual Hitler stuff came afterward.
How does he rationalize that Hitler would absolutely have killed every Black or African descended person he could, that he switched from being inspired by American rascism to calling the US a 'mongrelized' people, because of American society's multiracial makeup, interracial marriage etc?
Easy: He's completely insane and legitimately should be in a room with padded walls.
Logic? Reason?
404 error.
...
Have you ever tried to convince an unmedicated, manic schizophrenic that... the things they are saying just fundamentally do not make sense, at a basic grammatical level, that their mind invents things that did not happen?
Yeah, doesn't go so well.
They usually just conclude that you're part of the conspiracy.
Mental illness isn't a skin color.
Basically, cognitive dissonance. They simply refuse to believe the truth, and make up their own fantasies in which everything is backwards from reality. It makes them feel like they have some power over their life, and/or that they're special.
99% of the time people like this are just deeply freaked out at the idea of a cold uncaring universe with nobody in control.
Their where Jews that helped the Nazi’s early on. They seen themselves as the good Jews.

some people are breathtakingly stupid and mental illness is complicated, idk what to tell you fam
They think they have enough money to avoid the camps
theres racist black people 🤷 This is just that but more extreme
But usually racists are racist towards some other group of people, not themselves.
It's not unheard of. There were even Jews for Hitler
Mental illness.
Well, believe me or not but black people were not on the bottom of the human nazi chart. The Jews were on the maximum bottom, then there were Russians/Poles/Serbs/Belarussians/Ukrainians, and then after them there were black people.
But still, black people weren't consider aryan lol
