I want to know what the actual fuck is in your history books that this many US citizens on the right side are completely wrong about nazi germany and hitler.
does anyone have an explanation for this?- I blame the history channel for their constant re-runs of Hitler and the Occult.dasohr
- Key word is books.PhanLo
- @sted, it's called racism, white supremacism, bigotry, and denial of reality ... the tenets of ultra-right extremism here.monospaced
- Home schooling, and we never finished the job when we defeated the south.zarkonite
- @monospaced yeah that ultra-right is truly unique. but where did they started to misinterpret history. that's what i don't understand.sted
- Because a racist cunt told them it’s fake and they like racism so they prefer the fake story.monospaced
- Kinda like asking why some people question evolution. Schools teach the truth, but bigoted idiots (church mostly) lies and spreads bigotry and hate.monospaced

@monospaced that happens everywhere but it's limited to micro-communitiessted - yes it is, sted, but those communities are spreading in the US, with the help of the Trump administration (Devos, et al).monospaced

Ordered something online on Sunday.
A few days passed...
Now I [still calmly] texted the delivery guy, he just replied his truck got a flat tire but will get to me eventually.
It's almost 10PM Wednesday evening...
Never felt so disrespected like this in my life, hope I don't turn into a Karen by tomorrow.
- Nevermind, he actually just showed up, wow longest delivery time ever, considering the package was shipped from 100km awaygrafician
- that's a long time to wait for a kebabfadein11
- @fade verygrafician
- Frist world problemi_monk
- You can text the delivery guy? Wow.monospaced
- ^ thisoey_oey
- so you ordered something on Sunday, order was probably processed Monday and maybe went to Parcel company on Monday. Tueday they process it...oey_oey
- Wednesday is there. To me, here in. Germany I would consider that normal. with luck it would have been arrived on Tuesday evening depending on the delivery firmoey_oey
- And I can no way text the guy.oey_oey
- NOooo is not normal, we get even same day here! It was AGES! Very not normal around here for 3 day deliverygrafician
- and yeah ofc most delivery companies notify you when your package will arrive + get a delivery guy number, thought was normal everywheregrafician
- It might be normal in your village in middle earth.monospaced
- oh I've heard that in the US people snatch packages from your porch, oh boy, that must be scary afgrafician
- so we invented texting the delivery guy to make sure the package arrives safely - just not always on time...grafician
- I've been able to text DHL delivery guys before, I think.i_monk
- I know whee n it arrives. T u e same day!? Wow!oey_oey
- Typically we wait 2-3weeks, then get a failed delivery notice, and have to go get the package ourselves, and then pay some 3rd party drop off for the privilege.monNom
- You are obviously doing something wrong.monNom

I spent the best part of the late afternoon/early evening listening, no...blasting The Bee Gees. I’ve got to say it’s good stuff. I can’t believe I know most of the words to songs I haven’t heard in decades. The wife tells me there’s a Bee Gees doc. I think we all know how I’m spending my evening.

Don't be too positive:
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/a…
"FONO, or fear of a negative outlook. Also known as “dismissive positivity,” it’s expressed as an overbearing cheerfulness no matter how bad things are, a pep that denies emotional oxygen to anything but a rictus grin.
You see it on Instagram, where the affective filter is always upbeat, usually followed by the hashtag #blessed. You hear it from the SoulCycle instructor exhorting every rider to swaggeringly sweat through the pain. It’s available from the newly anointed chief creative officer for Vital Proteins, actress Jennifer Aniston, who claims that renewal isn’t only a result of its powders: Instead, “it’s within us.” You might even recognize it in the boss who insists that colleagues start every Zoom meeting by sharing a piece of good news to help keep moods buoyant amid the gloom.
Think of this mindset as one that responds to all human anxiety, or sadness, with uncompromising optimism. It can be found in sentences that start with those negating words “At least,” which are followed by a suggestion that however bad you’re feeling, at least you’ve got plenty else that should offset and outweigh it. Even the oppressive insistence that we should love our body, no matter what, can tip into upbeat intolerance by implying that it’s not OK to want to work on tummy folds or laugh lines."
