Least fascist Canadian sub (no, seriously).

"Your take is too simplistic, it requires more nuance"

"Nuance on what? What needs to be elaborated?"

"It needs... nuance..."

"What part of this needs any kind of elaboration?"

"The part that needs nuance"

Remember kids, when logic and reality get in your way, just say you need to add nuance until it's morally acceptable!

"Sophisticated understanding of history" to the average redditor:

Commies always bad, and that's the end of it. End of discussion.

Nazis on the other hand deserve nuance, some of them were just uwu smol beans fighting for freedom, freedom from the evil commies who were definitely much worse than the nazis so actually the nazis were good but not all nazis were nazis but all commies were commies Hitler loved animals they were just defending their culture have you read this book about IQ the reason everything is shit is feminism transgender cultural marxism god I love america china bad cryptocurrency i want to be a landlord stem tesla musk jordan peterson intellectual dark web 1350 and thats why i vote blue no matter who trump 2024

are you arguing with a 12 year old?

The really grim part is that that particular subreddit is actually one of the least-awful Canadian subreddits. If even the self-described "progressives" are this bloodthirsty, you can imagine how vicious the other ones are.

"It's very nuanced actually." I say as I put on a brown shirt.

"You can't just say something is bad without context." I affix my red armband.

"History isn't black and white." I shave all my facial hair except a thin patch in the center of my lip.

"People were fighting against the Russians as much as they were fighting for the Germans." I brandish my copy of Mein Kampf.

"Fighting for the Germans in WW2 doesn't make you a Nazi." I begin to sieg heil and goose-step.

ackshually, not everyone in the SS was a nazi.

Hey, there are many circumstances where there is nothing wrong with collaborating against your countrymen.

This was not one of them, but they exist.

someone needs to do a deep dive on how uniquely bigoted and awful canadians are so we can copy paste spam shitlords who claim canada is soooo progressive or something

look, you can act all high and mighty, but i bet if you lived in ukraine at the time, and you loved fascism and hated communism and jews and homosexuals and women, and thought there was a conspiracy to corrupt the soul of your beautiful nation, then you would have joined the SS too! so think before you speak.

You know all those videos of Ukrainians doing a pogrom on Jewish people?

It's actually a lot more sophisticated than it looks, you need to try and sympathize with their unique circumstances. Russia was communist so they had to kill the Jews. This doesn't mean they were Nazis.

As soon as it involves JT the libs get their ideology blinders up and go into defence mode. Same thing happened with the blackface scandal and Aga Khan scandal and diameter whatever other scandal you want with JT. Then it's all about NuAnCe

I hate the libs on that sub. What kind of dork makes a sub named after a national anthem? You're supposed to learn to hate national anthems when you are forced to stand at attention and sing them when you're a small child in elementary school.

This is the culmination of the liberal "both sides" thing. It's the chickens come home to roost. Liberals have spent decades now convincing themselves the Soviets and the Nazis were the same thing, but to the ones who wanted to be nuanced or seem smart would always say the Soviets were worse. Libs are so far up their own butt with acting like tortured geniuses, beset by a complicated world full of nuance. "Oh to be struck in a situation where I must collaborate with monsters. I have been forced by nuance into this SS uniform I chose to wear and I know what it represents."

However there can be nuance for anything associated with Russia. Liberals view Russia as a unique abyss in human history. It's Nyarlathotep himself, inconceivable and impossible to negotiate with. It's always bad in every single historical event, even when it's seemingly doing something good, it's still bad. That's the conclusion they've spun themselves into believing

One of the first comments: there were three sides (because the UPA totally wasn't affiliated with Nazi Germany), the Holodomor was man-made and equivalent to the Holocaust and the UPA's massacres

That's some good double genocide disguised as NuAnCe

The rest of the thread is just as bad. Since there was a single commission about if the SS officers that Canada deliberatly imported that didn't find them guilty they did nothing wrong.

There also seems to be some kind of perception that Ukraine was a sovereign state that joined the Nazis against Soviet aggression rather than an SSR that was invaded by Nazis who recruited people who were supportive of their efforts.

I'm using the correct tone. I'm better and more mature than you 🙄

I fucking hate these dweebs

Wasn't that sub criticising Canada for racism, corruption and other such things? I distinctly recall the usual suspects screeching about it

these people are so nuanced in their political thinking they have joined the Sophisticate Society
