Wow I didn’t realise Ben Gvir had a Lemmy account.

You really do see all those who don’t revere you as less than, bots, and shills. No wonder you can be so flippantly pro genocide.

It was a really normal question as well to be this much of an asshole about it really shows the kind of person you are.

I’m genuinely asking what you define as leftist. I am not Amerikan. I don’t know what you would as it doesn’t seem to align with the global norm for what others would call leftist.

But I suppose everyone who doesn’t prostrate at your feet and revere your moral and intellectual superiority is a bot or a shill or otherwise less than.

Can you please define leftwing? When you say leftwing do you mean Obama?

No you definitely are. I can see your comment history. I am curious why you decided to suddenly start pretending to be illiterate. It makes it really annoying to parse and translate what you’re saying in my head.

Also your original comment was a strawman anyway.

All I did was point out that much of the leadership of NATO around it’s founding were former high ranking Nazis, as part of the systematic issue in the west at the time of parachuting Nazis into positions of power as they were ideologically opposed to the communists. This was in comparison to the Soviets who put Nazi scientists to work I’m workcamps for minimum wage to work off their debt to society.

Why are you suddenly pretending to be illiterate?

Americans care about freedom. You should probably learn this

So we’ve moved from most people to Americans. Interesting. Also given America has the largest prison population in the world in raw numbers not even per capita I’m not sure that’s particularly true, especially when American prisons are by design essentially slavery.

Certainly the DPRK, I am not very well read on Laos however.

By almost every metric they were massively successful seeing some of the largest leaps in life expectancy in history side by side with the largest strides in poverty alleviation, infant mortality and more.

If you exclude just China alone from global poverty statistics global poverty by headcount is worse today than in 1981.

Not that you really care you just want to pontificate from your soapbox about “the silly Marxists” who dare to actually wish for and push for better.

China, Russia, Vietnam, Cuba

Operation Osoaviakim:

Scientists in labour camps.

Operation Paperclip:

In 1957, 77% of the ministry’s senior officials were former Nazis, which, according to the study, was a higher proportion that during Hitler’s Third Reich government, which existed from 1933 to 1945.

The fascist old-boys network closed ranks, enabling its members to shield each other from justice, the study found – helping explain why so few Nazi war criminals ever went to prison. “The Nazi-era lawyers went on to cover up old injustice rather than to uncover it and thereby created new injustice,” said Heiko Maas, Germany’s justice minister, who presented the report Monday.

Franz Halder

German general and the chief of staff of the Army High Command (OKH) in Nazi Germany from 1938 until September 1942. During World War II, he directed the planning and implementation of Operation Barbarossa, the 1941 invasion of the Soviet Union. Halder became instrumental in the radicalisation of warfare on the Eastern Front. He had his staff draft both the Commissar Order (issued on 6 June 1941) and the Barbarossa Decree (signed on 13 May 1941) that allowed German soldiers to execute Soviet citizens for any reason without fear of later prosecution, leading to numerous war crimes and atrocities during the campaign. After the war, he had a decisive role in the development of the myth of the clean Wehrmacht.

After World War II Halder served as a lead consultant for the US Army Historical Division. He oversaw the writing of over 2,500 historical documents by 700 former German officers, whom he instructed to remove material detrimental to the image of the German armed forces. Halder used his influence to foster a false history of the German-Soviet conflict in which the German army fought a “noble war” and which denied its war crimes. The US Army overlooked Halder’s apologia because Halder’s group was providing military insights on the Soviet Union that it deemed important in the light of the Cold War. Halder succeeded in his aim of exonerating the German Army: first with the US military, then amongst widening circles of politicians and eventually in American popular culture. In 1961, he was awarded the Meritorious Civilian Service Award,

– Adolf Heusinger and Hans Speidel Chairman of NATO’s Military Committee and Commander of the Allied Land Forces Central Europe (COMLANDCENT) respectively

– Johann von Kielmansegg, General Staff officer to the High Command of the Wehrmacht, 1942-44, was NATO’s Commander in Chief of Allied Forces Central Europe, 1967-68.

– Sturmführer Dr. Eberhard Taubert worked with Goebbels in the Nazi Ministry of Propaganda where he was responsible for designing the yellow badge for Jews. After the war, he eventually became an adviser to ex-Nazi Franz Josef Strauss, German Minister of Defence from 1956-62, and was assigned by Strauss to NATO’s “Psychological Warfare Department” .

– Nazi Admiral and U-Boat commander Friedrich Guggenberger, whose U-boat sank 17 allied ships, later served as Deputy Chief of Staff in the NATO command Armed Forces North (AFNORTH) 1968-72.

– Johannes Steinhoff, a Luftwaffe fighter pilot, was made Chairman of the NATO Military Committee 1971-74, holding other NATO positions prior to that.

– Ernst Ferber, a major in the Wehrmacht, was NATO’s Commander in Chief of Allied Forces Central Europe, 1973-75.

– Karl Schnell, First General Staff officer of the LXXVI Panzer Corps, was NATO’s Commander in Chief of Allied Forces Central Europe, 1975-77.

– Franz Joseph Schulze, Chief of the Third Battery of the Flak Storm Regiment 241, was NATO’s Commander in Chief of Allied Forces Central Europe, 1977-79.

– Ferdinand von Senger und Etterline, Lieutenant of the 24th Panzer Division of the German Sixth Army, was NATO’s Commander in Chief of Allied Forces Central Europe, 1979-83.

— West German Chief of Staff Hans Globke, Globke drafted the legal commentary on the 1935 Nuremberg laws, legalising the exclusion of Jews from public life, the theft of their assets and opening the door to their eventual murder. It was Globke’s idea to put a “J” in every Jewish citizen’s identity papers, alongside their new middle names: “Israel” for men, “Sara” for women. Globke’s fingerprints were also on laws outlawing “racial disgrace” – relations between Jews and “Aryans”. After the war, Globke confessed that he knew all about the Shoah, the industrialised murder of European Jews.

— Kurt Georg Kiesinger, served as the chancellor of West Germany from 1 December 1966 to 21 October 1969. Before he became chancellor, he served as Minister-President of Baden-Württemberg from 1958 to 1966 and as President of the Bundesrat from 1962 to 1963. He was chairman of the Christian Democratic Union (CDU) from 1967 to 1971. In 1940 he was appointed to the broadcast policy department of the Foreign Office by Joachim von Ribbentrop, and became deputy head of the broadcasting and propaganda departments in 1942.

— The brutal Butcher of Lyon, notorious Nazi Klaus Barbie spent the Second World War torturing children and sending whole families to the death camps. But when the conflict ended, the Gestapo captain didn’t face instant arrest and swift justice. Instead, the US allowed him to start a new life as a CIA spy, smuggling him into Bolivia where he helped hunt and kill the revolutionary Che Guevara among other atrocities.

— General Reinhard Gehlen, the German army’s intelligence chief for the Eastern Front during World War II. At the end of the war, Gehlen established a close relationship with the U.S. and successfully maintained his intelligence network (it ultimately became the West German BND) even though he employed numerous former Nazis and known war criminals.

The CIA concealed the whereabouts of Nazi war criminal Adolf Eichmann in the 1950s for fear he might expose undercover anticommunist efforts in West Germany, according to documents released

Lmao, of course the euroamerikan has a white saviour complex.

You’re right despite the reality of average working hours being under 50 a week, constant government pushes to improve workers rights and conditions, and all my experience as a Chinese person living and working in China you know best I have no rights.

Maybe you and the rest of the western world are right that we should embrace the EuroAmerikan model of enslaving and enforcing maximum extraction on as many foreign nations as possible so that we can work 40-80 hours a week and be homeless unable to afford anything.

Massive /S on all of that btw.

“The government does nothing for the workers you’re a slave with no rights”

It’s really not, why don’t they just solve all crime is not a valid point I was hoping by using a more obvious example you would more easily notice this.

That’s a lot of not engaging with what I said but that’s fine. I never said no Chinese people work in Japan just that the idea of someone moving to a country who’s PM is currently pushing for longer working hours and worse conditions that is currently stoking xenophobia especially against Chinese people for better conditions is just unrealistic to put it lightly.

I also notice you didn’t bother to engage with the fact that the actual average working hours are not that far off the western world being under 50 hours a week consistently since at least 2022. (And that’s without looting the global south to fund it)

Why does murder still happen? I thought your government had the means to impose its laws. Unless it has an interest not to?

See how silly you sound?

Also I’m inclined to think your Chinese colleague doesn’t exist, moving to modern Japan for better working conditions (especially as someone Chinese) it’s beyond belief.

Average working hours have been under 50 since at least 2022

996 is sadly very common in China

Not only was it not common at all (affecting roughly 40 companies), it’s been illegal for over half a decade.

That’s fair I’m glad we agree so.

Ok so you agree then that when analysing these issues we have to start with their relation to class? That gender and racial discrimination are at their core subsets of the class struggle which makes up the bedrock upon which they are built?

That we should only focus on class issues and then once that’s solved, we can move on to racial and sexist issues.

That’s not at all what I’m saying. So I was right you didn’t understand what I was saying.

I don’t think you’re really understanding what I’m saying.
