The Seriously? Theatre of Absurdity, Ignorance, and Bad Posts V

In a BRTD thread that actually poses an interesting question (why most Western converts to Islam are women):

Pretty easy:

They meet and marry Muslim men, who either directly or indirectly pressure them into converting to Islam.

Basically Stockholm syndrome.

That whole thread belongs here, really, as one would expect from a group of white males pontificating on a subject like that.

Classic maxque

The ÖVP did an internal poll the last few days in Upper Austria, about which topic is most debated among voters right now and in their families:

3/4 said "immigration/refugees"

Just 6% said "labour/unemployment".

This election will turn into an epic disaster for ÖVP-SPÖ, if these numbers are true ...

Like I said earlier, it's a glaring failure than Allies failed to de-nazify Austria, like they did with Germany.

I see nothing at all objectionable about this post. The notion that the Austrians were the first victims of Nazism is deeply pernicious in a very obvious way.

the idea that de-Nazification would have had any effect on reducing present day anti-immigrant sentiment makes sense to you?

Yes, it does. Extreme anti-foreign statements are far less common in German political discourse than in that of neighboring countries, and this has a lot to do with that sort of thing being considered outside the pale in Germany. You may or may not consider that a good thing, but it's there.

Anyone who kills 100,000s of people by giving the clearance to drop two atomic bombs over hugely populated cities is not a liberal by my standards. That far, far worse than anything Hitler did by definition. The easier solution would have been to simply kill the Japanese emperor, yet that was a way too sophisticated idea for Truman at the time (probably he didn't have the mental capacity to come up with it either).

Hitler > Truman

That's one way to put it, but really it's just racism.
