[Thread] So...Dint D'Thereading has really outdone himself with this one. I mean, this is so loony toons that I am pretty much only writing about it for fun.

Nordic white girls = Nazi propaganda = Throwback to 1930s Nazi liberals?!

But...let's talk about this.

Where to start? Perhaps we can just quickly get out of the way something I covered in a previous clubbing of Dinesh.

The Nazis were NOT socialists. Therefore, they weren't leftists. (Really. It's true.)

(And @KevinMKruse has repeatedly pounded on you about the American side of things regarding the changing policies of Democrats so I will just refer you to three or four dunkings ago on that score.)

And...again.

And........one more time.

So, with the hard stuff out of the way...what kind of crazy pills is DD taking here?

He says that children were used in Nazi propaganda and shows a cropped image of a German girl along with climate change activist Greta Thunberg. Ok...this is odd.

1) The Nazis used these idealized and stereotypical images of Germans to create an imagined racial state (the Volksgemeinschaft- you can google that, DD.)

Definitely racist. Definitely Nazi. Definitely has no connection to the "Left in 1930."

2) Not sure how an idealized image of a racial/national ideal is a tactic of any particular genius. Pretty much every country of every political bent has done this. So not sure what you think you have "discovered" but...whatever it is...you haven't.

Here's your boy. Hmmm...that looks an awful lot like propaganda.

I'm wondering, Dinesh, did you crop Himmler and his daughter out of your meme image? Was including the architect of the Final Solution just a LITTLE bit too edgy for you?

This is low, even for you.

Your argument is a personal best in stupidity so let's move on to something more interesting and more relevant.

Actual Nazis hate Greta Thunberg but they really liked the Nazi type. Hmm. The real German neo-Nazis (the most Nazi) deny climate change.

They say that you can tell a lot about a person by the people that like them. Let's take a look at some of the responses by your fans.

Here we have the head of George Soros (I believe) photoshopped onto Thunberg's body. This refers to an antisemitic myth of world conspiracy.

More antisemitic conspiracy theorists love your argument.

Though I really do like Glock Joe.

Also, you are using your unconscionably large Twitter following and platform to go after <checks notes> a 16 year old girl? Really? That's just sad (and awful).

I've got a link for you.

On a serious closing note (until you do this AGAIN), you are taking a serious and important event and turning it into a ridiculous, repetitive (and historically WRONG) talking point. If anyone's mastered the "Big Lie," it's you.

I'd say "stop," but you won't. So...see ya soon.

And in case this tweet disappears...
