  • No it wasn’t. Utter shite.

    Fascism (/ˈfæʃɪzəm/ FASH-iz-əm) is a far-right, authoritarian, and ultranationalist political ideology

    Opposed to communism, democracy, liberalism, pluralism, and socialism,[5][6] fascism is at the far right of the traditional left–right spectrum.[1][6][7]

    Kershaw argues that the difference between fascism and other forms of right-wing authoritarianism in the interwar period is that the latter generally aimed “to conserve the existing social order”, whereas fascism was “revolutionary”, seeking to change society and obtain “total commitment” from the population.[43]

    The Nazi Party,[b] officially the National Socialist German Workers’ Party (German: Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei [c] or NSDAP), was a far-right[10][11][12] political party

    The Nazi Party emerged from the extremist German nationalist (“Völkisch nationalist”), racist, and populist Freikorps paramilitary culture, which fought against communist uprisings in post–World War I Germany.[13] The party was created to draw workers away from communism and into völkisch nationalism.[14] Initially, Nazi political strategy focused on anti-big business, anti-bourgeoisie, and anti-capitalism, disingenuously using socialist rhetoric to gain the support of the lower middle class;[15] that was later downplayed to gain the support of business leaders. By the 1930s, the party’s main focus shifted to antisemitic and anti-Marxist themes.[16]

    The renaming of the German Workers’ Party (DAP) to the National Socialist German Workers’ Party (NSDAP) was partially driven by a desire to draw upon both left-wing and right-wing ideals, with “Socialist” and “Workers’” appealing to the left, and “National” and “German” appealing to the right.[26]

    To ease concerns among potential middle-class supporters, Drexler made clear that unlike Marxists the party supported the middle-class and that its socialist policy was meant to give social welfare to German citizens deemed part of the Aryan race.[34]

    From the outset, the DAP was opposed to non-nationalist political movements, especially on the left, including the Social Democratic Party of Germany (SPD) and the Communist Party of Germany (KPD).

    In general, the manifesto was antisemitic, anti-capitalist, anti-democratic, anti-Marxist and anti-liberal.[61] To increase its appeal to larger segments of the population, on the same day as Hitler’s Hofbräuhaus speech on 24 February 1920, the DAP changed its name to the Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei (“National Socialist German Workers’ Party”, or Nazi Party).[62][63][e] The name was intended to draw upon both left-wing and right-wing ideals, with “Socialist” and “Workers’” appealing to the left, and “National” and “German” appealing to the right.[66] The word “Socialist” was added by the party’s executive committee (at the suggestion of Rudolf Jung), over Hitler’s initial objections,[f] in order to help appeal to left-wing workers.[68]

  • “It is now nearly £10 million for a door which does not work. Somebody accountable must be identified and should perhaps resign for this terrible waste of public money,” he said.

    Meanwhile, Conservative Peer Lord Hayward estimated that the costs incurred from ensuring the door was manned at all times — in order to be opened — amounted to roughly £2,500 (€2,890) per week.

    £2,500 x 52 weeks = £130,000 a year.

    But there’s no money for disabled people. Gotta tighten the purse strings, sorry! Have you tried pulling yourself up by your boot straps?



  • It looks like you’ve made 61 posts in the last 24 hours. That’s a lot of content to provide!

    If you’re enjoying it, then there’s no harm in carrying on. Well done, thank you!

    But if you’re not enjoying it, then slow down. Stop posting or just post less frequently, whatever it takes to feel like you’re doing something you find worth doing. Otherwise, what’s the point?

    But to your original questions, I don’t think you’re wasting your time and posting is definitely useful for the Fediverse ecosystem.



  • You know what else can tell you to eat more fiber?

    Paying attention to your shit.

    Is it coming out like curry sauce being shot through a hose? Time to eat more fiber!

    Is it coming out like a large sausage? You get enough fiber.

    This is just another consumerist gimmick, another bullshit thing to get us to buy. More waste inevitably destined for land fill.

    There’s possibly medical usage for this, by doctors, in certain scenarios, but there’s no reason for the general consumer to require this beyond capitalism and consumerism.
