Sounds like the Nazis did win WW2 after all

A community for everything related to Palestine and the occupation currently underway by the occupying force known as Israel.
Anti-Zionism is not anti-Semitism. Existence is resistance for Palestinians.
Please refer to Israel as Occupied Palestine, or occupied territories. The IDF is a fascist and ethnonationalist occupying force. Israelis are settlers. We understand however that the imperial narrative (which tries to legitimise Israel) is internalised in the imperial core and slip-ups are naturally expected.
We always take the sides of Palestine and Palestinians and are unapologetic about it. Israel is an occupying power whose "defence force"'s (note the contradiction) sole purpose for existing is to push Palestinians out so they can resettle their rightful land. If you have anything positive to say about Israel we do not care.
@AnarchoBolshevik@lemmygrad.ml would disagree
May be unique is too strong a word here, but the focus on Nazis is primarily because it scarred the European landscape also. I know other places were impacted as well, not denying it. There were many genocides committed by European powers. The Bengal famine in fact took place during WWII.
What aspects of Nazi ideology were so unique, or even originating in Germany? Racial "purity," "Aryan" supremacy, lebensraum (settler-colonialism), and anti-Semitic "Judeo-Bolshevik" blood libel all came from the western European empires and their colonial Anglo spawn first. Even the fascist corporatism started elsewhere (Italy). At most, the Nazis added a new industrial touch to the genocidal policies first employed against the indigenous peoples of the Americas (and then elsewhere).
He is not disputing German Fascism’s derivative nature, but the assumption that its atrocities were restricted to Europe, which is an exaggeration.
