People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.

RULES:

  1. Mark NSFW content.
  2. No doxxing people.
  3. Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
  4. No international politcs
  5. Be excellent to each other.
  6. Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.
  7. If a tweet (or similar) makes a statement of fact, either mark it as "satire" in the body or provide the original source link backing up the statement

It's not actually. Lots of Germans called out their Jewish neighbours and reported to the authorities, 1 in 3 east Germans were government informants often snitching on people for things like listening to rock and roll. To this day, Germans snitch to the authorities over the most inane shit to this day. The snitching mechanism IS the fascism. Fascism requires the active involvement of the citizenry, not just complacency.

Your statement is an extremely disingenuous read of my position. You can only really agree with op if you yourself are squeeky fucking clean, and I bet you aren't because no one is.

And even more just put their heads down and tried to ignore the ongoing atrocities, ie minding their own business.

The rest of your comment is irrelevant.

You lick your own ass? Sorry my German is very rudimentary.
