The official account for Ford Motor Company on X was apparently compromised in a hacking incident behind a viral post calling Israel a “terrorist state.”
In a statement posted Monday evening, Ford said its X account was “briefly compromised” and several unauthorized posts were shared.
So, with this thought process most Germans are Nazis because of their ancestors?
Inspections have been ordered at every German army barracks, after Nazi-era memorabilia was found at two of them. The move follows a growing scandal over far-right extremism within the army, with an officer accused of plotting an attack disguised as a Syrian refugee.
Germans are Nazis because de-Nazification never really happened and high ranking members of the fascist government continued to occupy key rolls in government and industry long after the military’s collapse in 1945. Nazis were used as a bullwark against Soviet Communists in the 50s and 60s. Then they became pivotal as expendable Cold War mercenary units during the 70s and 80s, particularly in Latin America and Southern and Western Africa. Finally, the xenophobic rhetoric of the AfD has been instrumental in radicalizing Germans against Southern Europeans during the '00s European economic downturn and against war refugees following the invasion of Iraq and the bombings across North Africa, Syria/Lebanon, the border wars with Turkyie, and now the Russia/Ukraine conflict.
Nazism isn’t an inherited trait, it is a tool of social control. German private media and business continue to see Nazism as a means of pitting the German working class against itself, its neighbors, and geopolitical its rivals. So Nazism continues to thrive within the German state, long after the tanks that rampaged across Europe in the 30s and 40s had ground to a halt.
So you’re saying all Germans are Nazis?
Some of them are, certainly.
That can be said for just about any western country. What’s your point?
Nazism is a specific fascist ideology though.
Nationalist Socialism, specifically, yeah. “We can’t give you nice state-sponsored amenities because the evil migrants and foreigners took them from you” is a classic Nazi propaganda strategy and one popular all over Western and Southern Europe right now.
Don’t you think that seems harsh and too broad?
You’re coming at this from the perspective of “Nazi Bad”. It’s only harsh and broad if your opinion of fascism is harsh and unequivocal.
But you need to recognize that public opinion is turning. Fascism is regaining popularity globally, with Germany being one hot spot of many - from the UK to the Philippines to Argentina. Fascism isn’t some kind of hollow slur anymore. It’s popular public policy.
That’s not what that commenter said. That’s what you want for them to have said, so you can have a melt down over it.
This is America…
A corporation is a person, today’s Ford isn’t the descendant of 1938, it’s the same entity.
So if you’re trying to simplify my thoughts process, it would be:
There’s some shit you can’t make up for later in life. Not saying you can’t go on to do good things and help people, it’s just rare and will never make up for every past action.
Someone that is truly reformed, won’t let that stop that from trying. Because they truly understand and are sorry. They’re not trying to get into the “good place” they’re doing as much good as they can knowing that no amount will make up for their past.
Which is why it’s so rare.
No most Germans are not Nazis due to heritatge but most germans support their nazi nepo baby regime tho…
And when this fact is brought up to their attention, they get indignant. So you tell me what’s up with that?
Also, American elites being slavers’ nepo baby to this day is clearly reflected in US socio economic policy to this day.
These people never change yet, they are permitted to rule us.
What does nepotism have to do with anything? Also, pretty much all nazi’s fled germany after the war, so they wouldn’t have been in charge of rebuilding the German government…
That’s factually incorrect statement, most nazi’s underwent “re-education” and were “reintegrated” into german society.
However, we are not talking about pedestrian nazi’s here. We are talking about elite families who made their capital in part or entirely in collaboration with the Third Reich, including use of slave labour.
These people then returned to West Germany with their blood stained capital and reestablishment them selves as the new owner class.
You don’t have to take my word for it. This is common knowledge among people who studied history beyond what state sanctioned propaganda shills in schools.
We’ll see in two months
