So, Instagram has started pushing threads into users’ feed, and every now and then we get a glimpse into the unmoderated crapshoot that is that app…

L.E.: should be noted I do not have a threads account, have never even downloaded the app, this is sorta like “advertising” to try to convince you to move to their platform.

    First, I didn’t vote for him. Secondly, majority voted him to avoid the VVD winning.

    I wish he didn’t win.

    However claiming that Wilders is similar to Nazi is… Odd. He doesn’t want to kill others.

    Also why tryin to change subject from Nazism to Wilders?

      I don’t know anything about the Netherlands situation, but Nazism is just one particular flavor of fascism, and all forms of fascism have been on the rise in recent years. Especially white supremacist forms.

      Hitler didn’t start out with killing people either. He started out the exact same way as Trump (in fact, one of Trump’s former wives has said that he used to read Hitler’s speeches before bed, so it would be no surprise to learn that he’s straight up copying Hitler); blaming Germany’s problems on immigrants and Jews, going after the LGBTQ population in Germany, even promising to build a wall around the German border to keep out illegal immigrants if he got elected. Trump’s campaign slogan, “Make America Great Again,” came from a pro-Nazi WW2 political party called America First. There is now an “America First Foundation” that proudly declares themselves as a movement that’s an “amalgamation of traditional values, Trumpian populism, and American Nationalism” (their own words right off their website). Not only are they literally using the exact same name, but “traditional values” is one of those major red flags that means “white supremacy,” as is nationalism. They don’t call themselves Nazis, but they sure as hell share all the same values.
