Um, actually, Neville Chamberlain didn't "cave" to Hitler, he actually got a lot out of the deal.

I see a lot of people recently calling Chamberlain “spineless” and saying that he “caved” to Hitler or “sold out Czechoslavakia in exchange for empty promises.” But this is really problematic because you’re not thinking of all the people who would’ve gotten hurt if this deal didn’t go through. I mean, nobody wants a repeat of the Great War. And look, I hate Hitler as much as anyone, but he’s given us his word that he’ll be content with taking only the Sudetenla-

Sorry, what’s that? Oh, I see.

As I was saying, Mr. Hitler has given us his word that he’ll be content with just annexing all of Czechoslavakia.

What was he supposed to do? Throw Europe into a major conflict, just because some fascist seizes power, removes any semblance of democracy, and starts terrorizing minorities?

Look, at the end of the day, capitalist or fascist, we might not see eye to eye on every little detail but it’s important to be the bigger person and reach across the aisle and give them every chance to stop being belligerent.

I mean, after all, if we can’t work together, then who’s going to kill all the leftists?

Back to main discussion

This is particularly funny considering your apologia for Russian imperialism in Ukraine.

Of course, I’m sure had you been around at the time, you would have opposed Chamberlain then, as well - after all, the Soviets and the Nazis had a common enemy in the ‘Western degenerates’. The Soviets couldn’t well genocide Poland by themselves - though they certainly put in plenty of effort!

This you licking fascist boots and spreading pro-fascist misinformation in the interests of ‘Peace in our time! (under a fascist regime)’, Mr. Chamberlain?

Thank you so much for uncovering all those Tankies. Without you, I had much less fun in the Threadiverse. Please keep at it, even with all the hate you are getting, be sure there are a lot of other people like me really appreciating what you are doing.

They’re much less common than they used to be back in 2023, at least on the ‘decent’ instances. Hopefully genocide denial will be completely dead on the non-tankie instances given a little more time!

I hate seeing shit like this passed around, and the “Milk Before Meat” approach is how they soften their image, so I try to call it out when I see it.

I did a wrongthink 😔

I’m so sorry. There are, in fact, three lights. I will never trust my own eyes ever again, I pledge to always follow whatever the group decides is correct and never again to think for myself or question what I’m told. I hearby renounce all standards of evidence and uphold the in-group’s symbolic beliefs as the highest authority of epistemology. Will you ever forgive me?

…still on the shitpost comm, yeah?

If you like talking to me so much, finish our other conversation by providing the evidence I asked. I’m not discussing anything else with you until then.

I never pretended to ‘engage’ with you about your continuing denial of the Uyghur Genocide, I only pointed out that you are, in fact, a genocide denier. :)

Bruh that’s literally you in the comic. Stop following me around. I’m trying to eat breakfast.

Dumbass really thought “sealioning” meant, “asking for evidence, in any context” 😭😭😭

Hey! Don’t fuckin bring me into this shit.

Dumbass really thought “sealioning” meant, “asking for evidence, in any context” 😭😭😭

Me: “You’re a genocide denier.”

You: “It’s not a genocide!”

Me: “Yeah, that’s exactly what I accused you of, thanks.”

You: “WHERE’S THE PROOF?!”

lmao

Just like Holocaust deniers. You hate being called out, but crave arguing about it, I suppose because the thought of murdered minorities gets your genocide-boner going.

Do you deny the ongoing US genocide of Italians? Yes or no. Do you deny the “white genocide?” Yes or no.

Evidence or GTFO.

I’m sorry that you think you’re entitled to a debate, genocide denier, like the Holocaust deniers you mimic

Damn, so it’s not just your literacy that’s bad, but your media comprehension in general.

Sorry that you think that explicitly refusing to debate you is asking you to debate me, lmao.

Sorry that you think you’re entitled to debate the well-recorded genocide of minorities with anyone who isn’t a genocide denying piece of shit, a bizarre entitlement shared with the Holocaust deniers you ape.

Bro you come into this thread, guns blazing, attacking me and trying to get me into a debate, I tell you to leave me alone, and somehow I’m the one demanding you “debate me?” No, please, do not debate me. Please leave me alone. But if you are going to follow me around, attacking me and trying to get me to debate you, all I ask is one simple thing:

Evidence or GTFO.

That’s it. If you’re going to hurl accusations at me, then provide evidence that the things you’re attacking me for denying are actually grounded in reality.

Bro you come into this thread, guns blazing, attacking me and trying to get me into a debate,

I never tried to get you into a debate, lmao. I just pointed out the humor of a pro-imperialist genocide denier who advocates for appeasement pretending to be opposed to appeasement of imperialism and genocide. :)

 
2

You’re still trying to get me into a debate, lol. You’re still hurling accusations with no basis in reality. Because you will neither provide evidence, nor will you GTFO.

Evidence, or GTFO.
