Nazis are siding with other Nazis, who would have thought.

Who would've thought in 1945 that a Nazi government would support a Jewish supremacist government somewhere in history

(cool fact: the Nazis had a friendly relationship with Zionists, look for "Haavara Agreement")

I think that's a bit of a reductive interpretation of the haavara agreement. It would be like saying that America had a friendly relationship with slaves that were part of the repatriation to Liberia.

It was a geopolitically acceptable attempt to solve the "Jewish question". They would allow the Jews to keep some of their wealth, so long as they spent the rest of it buying German goods on their way out.

Sorry, I replied to the wrong person, this was supposed to go to the person you replied to.

That’s very disingenuous, that was the Nazi government expelling 60,000 Jews because they hadn’t reached the stage of The Final Solution where they could simply exterminate them.

They didn’t move them out of the kindness of their hearts. They pointed a gun to their head and said “Hand over all your assets and move, or stay and suffer”.

That's what I said, it was a more politically acceptable way for them to remove Jewish people out of the country while extracting their wealth.

The person I was responding to was the one claiming they had "friendly relations", which I said was reductive.

I know, my mistake, I replied to the wrong person.

No worries! Was just trying to see where we were conflicting, makes more sense now. Thanks!

baby's first international relations opinion: everyone I don't like is a terrorist and genocider.

For a minute I was worried someone was going to make a comparison between occupied Palestine and Ukraine. Russia has taken some large chunks of Ukrainian territory, so the comparison is pretty easy to make, but I should have know any Ukraine flag emoji folks are going to go for us-foreign-policy over any actual material reality.

Ukraine and Israel have both received many billions of dollars in military aid from the US. Which is why us-foreign-policy is named what it is.

I hope Russia will shut his mouth once and for all very soon when they throw him in some ditch of a prison for life for everything he did
