Fun fact, our contemporary usage of the word “racism” was pioneered in the thirties, to describe things like Nazism, so while it feels a little unnatural to Americans to use it that way, it is perfectly correct. (I know Europeans still maintain that as normal usage, but I suspect this confused coalie must be American.)

Quote from that article’s notes because I’m too lazy to get on a vpn and find full text:

One of the earliest attempts to analyse the relation between the ‘race’ idea and the political was Voegelin (1933/2000). The term racism was first used and identified as a focus of study and indictment in Hirschfeld (1938). Also noteworthy during this period are Barzun (1938); Huxley and Haddon (1935); Montagu (1942/2000); and Benedict (1943).

Oh, it's that thing about their kink making them a literal Nazi. Right.

Oh, so you were just being disingenuous. Got it. You may disagree that they’re actually sympathetic to Nazi racism, but how could you be confused about the accusation at this point?

I wasn't being disingenuous. I wanted to know why you were calling them racist.

(Anonymous) 2020-01-02 07:14 am (UTC)(link)
I wasn’t calling them racist—I was just the coalie explaining why people who think they’re a Nazi would be calling them racist. My only opinion on this wank is that I’m pretty bored with it and that I’m glad I have no conceivable fandom overlap with them.

Sorry, I didn't realize you weren't the coalie I replied to.

If your kink makes you believe that the Reich were just sweet boys doing their best who get a bad rap in most WWII films, it's not a kink, it's a worldview.

Can you please stop wanking about yourself, aquatics? Wouldn’t you have better luck on FFA? No one is here anymore.

(Anonymous) 2020-01-02 07:20 am (UTC)(link)
Lol, as if aquatics thinks there's anything wrong with saying that the Reich were just sweet boys doing their best.

(Anonymous) 2020-01-02 07:19 am (UTC)(link)
I agree, but I've never seen this particular person call the Reich sweet boys who were just doing their best.

(Anonymous) 2020-01-02 07:22 am (UTC)(link)
I mean, it's all anon so this is unproveable, but aquatics is very recognizable on meme as the one with the Reich fetish and is constantly cooing over "sweet" Nazi officers, so I don't think it's a stretch to say this is her.

You never know, it could be the *other* nonny who thinks WW2 movies are too hard on the German side, Rommel was a sweetie, and jackboots are hot.

"...But I love-to-bits stories about how those cute boys were just trying their best for Hitler!"

The distinction between "enrolled members of the Nazi Party" and "people fighting for Nazi dominance over Europe and extermination of its minority peoples" is immaterial to just about everyone who isn't a working historian.

As they are constantly reminding us on FFA, that actually makes a HUGE difference! Actually the only enrolled Party member is the Jewish character, who's drawn like a caricature from Der Stürmer!

They are kinking on Nazis, so yes, that is racist.

Yikes. Well, at least people can't argue "I'm not an anti" anymore, I guess.
