Except instead of Nazis (?!?!) it's corporations.

That's frequently the same thing.

Seriously, it's ridiculous. Why is nobody holding Google accountable for the Holocaust?

[–] zkikiz@lemmy.ml 14 points 1 year ago (1 children)

More like why aren't more people holding Facebook accountable for the genocide they aided and abetted. They're murderously incompetent at best, and global enablers of fascism at worst. https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2021/dec/06/rohingya-sue-facebook-myanmar-genocide-us-uk-legal-action-social-media-violence

Word, I guess. I haven't thought about Facebook for about a decade or more. Glad to see they are still crashing and burning. Although...normally you'd burn up an evaporate by now. Can we get the MySpace treatment for Facebook already?

i believe IBM actually did play a part in the holocaust. Google wasn’t around then

Also Allianz, Audi, BASF, Bayer, Zeiss, Siemens oh and Hugo Boss just to name a few. Were directly involved with Nazis using forced labor among other things. Oh and lets not forget Ford in the USA. Produced vehicles for the Nazis, and openly supported them. Lots of companies still around today got a lovely big kick start because of the Nazis.

Appropriate nickname, I guess... whispering nonsense and trying to corrupt good people.

Did you put a lot of thought into that one?

Blending of corporate and state power is one of the 14 characteristics

Where is the state power in the fediverse?
