Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Yep. Hitler also hated Christianity IIRC, but allied with the church for their financial aid and the support of religious voters. They definitely weren't above using the name of something that they hated and actively attacked to allow them to grab more power, and it makes them neither socialist nor Christian to have done so.
Seriously? They didn't start street brawls with the church and kill them. They did that with socialists. There was no teaming up, there was no alliance, there was no marketing trick. You're making up revisionist history and you seriously need to learn what happened and stop spreading misinformation.
What the fuck are you on about? I never said that they started street brawls with the church. I agreed with you about them hating and attacking socialists, added that they only kept the name for the party because of the recognition factor/popularity of socialist policy at that time in Germany, and then said that if I remember correctly, Hitler made agreements with the church for funding and support despite his personal feelings on the matter. Nowhere did I say the Nazis beat up Christians or members of the Church.
Seriously? What the fuck are on about. I said they didn't start street brawls with the church. Me. I said that. Ok? Me. Myself. Not you. Me. Got it? Me. Nor did I say or suggest that you said they started street brawls with the church.
You were talking about an alliance with the church, you said that. You. Ok? You. You said that AFTER talking about the Nazis trying to market to socialists, as in: You are trying to make a parallel between an alliance with the church and marketing/aligning/something with the socialists, on a similar line as they did with the Church.
AND I am the one say NO, they didn't. I am the on saying the following: The Nazis didn't start street brawls with the church. Notice that I am the one saying that. Me. Myself. Not you. Me. And I am the one saying: The Nazis DID start street brawls with the Socialists. And killed socialists. Because the hated socialists. This was WIDELY known, because it was literally in the streets with roving, essentially, gangs. They are not marketing to socialists, they are literally killing them openly, happy about it, and shouting it from the rooftops for everyone to hear.
See the difference in how they treated the Church and how they treated the socialists? Said by me. Myself. Me. I said those two statements to contrast how they treated each of those groups differently. Ok? Me. I said that. Alliance with one, and killing the other. See how they treated each group? So your talk of alliances with the church to draw a parallel (yes) to marketing/aligning/something with the socialists is wrong, revisionist history, and frankly absurd.
I'm bowing out of this conversation, I'm getting dumber with each reply to you. You seriously need to stop with revisionist history, this is right wing BS misinformation that you fell for.
