Do they really have any doubts that Nazis were socialists?
I mean its literally in the word Nazism (National Socialism).
Your argument is pretty dumb, because word a having word b as a component does not necessarily mean a is a special form of b. I am sure there are many English examples as well, but since I am a German native speaker (and also national socialists is originally a German term): A "halve hahn" is not half a chicken (German: Hahn), it is bread with cheese. A kalter kaffee (literal: cold coffee) is not a coffee, but it's Cola mixed with lemonade. And even if this was the semantics behind compound words, it was a self-descriptor, not a term chosen by neutral observers. It will be easy for you to find out what happened to the parties on the left spectrum and their adherents after Hitler took over (communists, socialists and social democrats).

What are these idiots even mad about? Its not like Era mods haven't bent to their every whim already. There's no pleasing these people. I can't blame the staff that have stepped down and I hope the remainder gives up, too.

Just have no mods, should be an interesting experiment...

Who fucking gives a shit about all this Asian-meeting minority safeplace crap. They behave like it's some offical UN event or something. It's a goddamn video game forum. Like fucking hell, if you're not there for the video games then what the fuck are you even doing? I can't fucking comprehend what the hell is going on over there. I am seeing delusions of grandeur, like ResetERA somehow is this big-ass forum that is part of the UN or something. So 3 dudes in a Discord channel, where one of them was probably not Asian but didn't have a webcam so no one ever knew? And what they came up with was some wall of text ulitizing some pseudo-political language where they say a whole lotta nothing in as many lines as possible.

I am still not sure whether they are actually LARPing or are really are just idiots with too much time (that they could spend playing games).

The sooner ReesetEra goes down in flames the better. They then hopefully won't create a new forum but scatter their trash opinions onto multiple social media platforms where without a unified voice nobody will give a shit what they have to say. xD

LOL Neppy weighing in on Asian issues. he started a "are white people racist?" thread and purposefully gatekeeped away any ideas that colorism or racism could be in Asia, he was saying that was all learned from white people.

wouldnt surprise me if he showed his racist ass and got banned from all this

Being black, a furry, a midget, and trans (?) gives them ban immunity there. She's a bitter racist piece of shit, who is a solidly middle/upper middle class college graduate that works at a pharmacy. So not exactly an "oppressed" person, except for maybe the shitty 7%/7 year car loan their stepdad gave them. But apparently they've experienced so much racism and hardship, they literally said killing white babies is ok.

As a s German, can you please TL;DR your post?

I thought you dudes were efficient?

RE is so weird because they advertise as being extremely tolerant and progressive but their moderation is anything but. GAF is quality, RE is quantity. There's good in having both but I'd always choose the former over the latter.

Please screen cap more from that thread.

It's mostly people like Shugga and Volimar getting self righteous about how the thread was originally for Asian ERA grievances and shaming people for making it about moderation as a whole. Oh and people demanding a feedback thread, questioning why (duration pending) lasts for weeks on end, and so on.

Also people asking why it takes so long to recruit mods.

All the other mods are staying far away from the thread from what I can tell.

There's actually a bit more sizzle in the other thread about Stinkles that you should be able to see


But we got a GAF shout out in the member only thread!

And this, likewise, is a terrible argument.

Because it is also entirely possible to check what happened to all of the other left-wing parties and organizations after the October Revolution - notably, the Socialist Revolutionary Party.

Historically, the sectarianism in the communist movement has been rampant. Everyone hates the guts of everyone else.

So if the criterion for being a genuinely socialist party is behaving like a good sport towards other left-wing formations, then I suppose the Bolsheviks weren't socialist after all. And neither were the Maoists, for that matter.

True, it's naïve to base one's argument purely on linguistic considerations while ignoring the track record. I don't view Nazis as socialists, though they do share important similarities.

North Korea is not democratic, despite bearing the tittle on the name.
Likewise, Antifa aren't anti-fascists. They aspire to fascist-like goals, try to push them through fascist-like means, but it's all done in the name of antifascism.

Watching Nepenthe get her ass handed to her is always time well spent. More, please, if anything juicy emerges.

I just want a GIF of them moving furniture, she said she was about to before.

Move the furniture Nepenthe, or at least describe them. Someone who isn't a midget may be able to help?

And if Biden wins, they won’t be any happier. Sad.
They arguably hate Biden more than GAF. Shared commonality and all that.

I’m not really paying that much attention to it, but I find it funny that people are co-opting the Asian-Era thread to shout “free KetKat” who was banned for reasons not even remotely related to the topic at hand.

What’s the new PC Era forum?

What does it really mean to be non-binary? We have only two genders. You can make stuff up, but the biology is hard facts.

Even Stinkles felt the wrath

Any other member already banned numerous times for prior bouts of racism would have been given the perma-ban, but Stinkles is a prominent member of the gaming community, so I'm sure he'll get yet another reprieve, because reasons.

He should really stick to what he's good at and won't get banned for: slavishly worshipping Hillary Clinton and reminding everyone of how she deserved the presidency.
