    what the fuck kinda apologist bullshit is blaming fascism on people angry about capitalism excess and not the actual fascist

      Being angry at capitalist excess is a good thing. Saying that someone dying horribly is ok because you disagreed with how it ran is business isn’t.

      Fascist rely on that communitarian instinct to trives. Nazism rise came partly from clever propaganda gymnastic. To the rich, they said the problem was bolcheviks who spread unrest into the masses. To the poors, they said it was the rich jews who fattened on their labor.
      To both they found a scapegoat remote enough to avoid having them interact enough to realize fascism bullshit, and that’s how they won.

      Fascism always tries to dehumanise part of society to make them the scapegoat for real issues, and gain momentum. Refusing those easy narrative is the first and more important step to refuse fascism.

        i didn’t kill him

        i didn’t wish him dead

        his own excess killed him (the number of rich people dying to flight related stuff is crazy disproportionate)

        don’t white wash the harm this man has done

        expecting people to be respectful about his death is pathetic

        blaming fascism on not the fascist themselves is worse

        and censoring comments is just sad

          I was talking about OC and why I censored his comment after it got reported multiple times. My bad for not having been more explicit.

            you’ve ‘moderated’ multiple comments in this thread

            i have no idea why you feel the need to defend rich trash

            this wasn’t a good man

              you’ve ‘moderated’ multiple comments in this thread

              Both broke the community rules, and many more probably does, but we (the mod team, I’m not the only one out there) only removed the worst of them

              i have no idea why you feel the need to defend rich trash

              this wasn’t a good man

              I defend my humanity, which includes having the minimal decency of not dancing on somone else grave. Even the worst asshole on earth deserves decency in death. That’s includes you.

                yea i’m not ruining people lives for profit, i’m not abusing those under my power

                it’s 2026, look around at the suffering in this country alone from people like him, saying nothing of the literal harm he’s done himself

                but people being happy he’s dead and the world is a better place is what triggers you

                  I don’t mind people being happy he is dead, nor do I mind those who think the world is a better place without him. You’ll find a lot of people in this topic who does, and you’ll find them, strangely, not moderated.

                  What we removed are people who insulted those who had different opinions, including one of your comments, and that’s all.
