    I wouldn’t call NK Nazis. They have a horrible government, sure, but equating them with what the nazis did throughout Europe is straight up insane. I don’t see NK brandishing their own version of Lebensraum, or trying to invade every country on earth. They’re a dictatorship sure. But not the nazis.

    And besides that, what does it even help us with to ban words and shit. At this point anyone should’ve realised that this is just a farce to whitewash our past without doing anything about fixing our problems. There are plenty of people walking around saying straight up nazi shit, but hey, at least they don’t brandish the forbidden symbols and don’t say the three illegal phrases. So they can’t be nazis. I mean, look at Germany, they did such a good job at denazifying that they banned the symbols and the phrases but conveniently forgot to criminally charge the sixty thousand officers that were directly involved with the shooting and execution of jews during pogroms. There’s a reason the “Persilschein” exists.
