Politics' Official Eighteenth Thread


Amentep

Recommended Posts

In National Socialism economy is just tool to achive state's goals. Which is quite different from socialism and capitalism which both focus on people having the wealth, disagreeing mainly on how wealth is distributed and who owns means of production. In national socialism people didn't matter only state, which is why their views of economy is quite difficult to place on traditional left-right wing axis especially in today's political discussion. It is their strong views of nation, superority of native folk, social politics, etc. which is reason why they are placed in far-right on traditional left-right spectrum.

 

The term "National Socialism" arose out of attempts to create a nationalist redefinition of "socialism", as an alternative to both international socialism and free market capitalism. Nazism rejected the Marxist concept of class conflict, opposed cosmopolitan internationalism and sought to convince all parts of the new German society to subordinate their personal interests to the "common good", accepting political interests as the main priority of economic organization -"European Business, Dictatorship, and Political Risk, 1920-1945"

Latest outrage is Samantha Bee calling Ivanka a "feckless c***" .  I guess I hang out with too many Aussies and Scots as that word almost seems like puncutation to me :lol:

100% support this, hijabs are totes fine. Not sure if Denmark has antifa hooligans but I would expect society to treat that the same.

Should Groucho Marx glasses be outlawed too?

 

Yes! Just as shark costumes, as it was done in Austria! And don't even think about putting a scarf around your neck when it's not really cold!

Always expected such a law to go down that road, so it doesn't surprise me at all. Really, they punch it through with the argument of burkas, because people are scared of them, but really it's just to get everyone they want who's wearing a mask (which usually happens at demonstrations).

Nope. They don't punch it through with the arguments of burkas. They can't. They are not allowed to. That would be discriminatory.

 

And in order to not discriminate they must forbid any kind of anything that covers the face. Doing that they can't be accused of being discriminatory. Because as you can see, even people wearing shark costumes or scarves in their face are forbidden from doing so.

 

They don't care for shark costumes or scarves, however. They ONLY care for burkas and similiar veils. It's really just to get muslim women who cover their faces.

They always argue about burkas when such a law is being talked about. Maybe not directly when it actually matters, but otherwise they do. It's plain as day and night that "in real" it's about masks in general.

But they can't express that in a law. Because such a law would very probably be against the Austrian constitution for the very fact that it would be discriminatory.

 

So they had to find a law that bans burkas and such but that was not discriminatory.

 

And their solution was to ban any kind of anything that covers the face.

I feel like if you are performing in costume, you should have a permit. If you are just pulling a gag or hijinx informally, than the obfuscation of your identity is improper behavior in a public space. If you were going to a masquerade, you should put your mask on once you arrive at the private event.

Well for me it's plain as day and night that "in real" it's about muslim women only, while they pretend that it's about any kind of masks.

 

So I'd guess we are at the point where we agree to disagree and move on ;)

I know its not an international custom, but you you celebrate Halloween in your country? Should children be prevented from trick-or-treating?

Kids sort of a get a pass on lot's of things, maybe they should, but typically parents are out chaperoning such occasions too and typically aren't in costume. So there are adults representing the kids. Usually there is a police presence watching out of hooligan's on such nights. Halloween is mostly held on collections of private property, and I guess you are stepping into the public as you walk on side-walks and the street. Typically these parts of a neighborhood are shared commons though that operate as semi-private extensions of the surrounding private property. Certainly these cases can be studies further.

 

You certainly shouldn't go out and do your daily business with your Halloween mask on.

Can't speak for all countries of course, but I'm fairly sure it's unknown in it's US form in Scandinavia (Denmark has something similar, but themed around witch burning) and neither Germany, UK, NZ or Australia knows it as anything other than "that US thing"

Halloween is clearly part of the pagan capitalist agenda. Ban it!

 

Fix'd. :)

Civilization, in fact, grows more and more maudlin and hysterical; especially under democracy it tends to degenerate into a mere combat of crazes; the whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary. - H.L. Mencken
