Aktshually Article 20 subsection 4 of the German Basic Law gives me explicit leeway to shoot the Führer:
(4) All Germans shall have the right to resist any person seeking to abolish this constitutional order if no other remedy is available.
And on his birthday, too!
That is so fucking awesome honestly.
"Hey we had someone try this before, if they try again, you are to stop them by any means necessary."
Turns out learning from mistakes and history works.
The wording includes an important caveat:
(4) Gegen jeden, der es unternimmt, diese Ordnung zu beseitigen, haben alle Deutschen das Recht zum Widerstand, wenn andere Abhilfe nicht möglich ist.
This roughly translates to
Every German has the right to resist those who seek to abolish this [free and democratic] order if no other means are sufficient.
The conservative politicians/judges have watered it down to the point where you can only violently resist them once democracy has already failed.
There's no need to go around making actionable threats of violence that could be read out in a courtroom, that's called fedposting. Try this on for size:
If the right keeps pushing, eventually someone's probably going to feel like their back's against the wall with no other recourse. For example, if there was, say, a national abortion ban, I wouldn't be surprised if someone tried to kill the people responsible. Tragic, really, but that's just the world we live in. Look, I want to do things peacefully, but if I can't produce results that way, well, it's not about me, it's about what's going to happen if other people lose confidence in my methods.
A prediction isn't a threat. I'm allowed to speculate about other people doing stuff, aren't I? Some historical orgs spoke that way, and their predictions could be eerily accurate.
Fuck Trump & Musk. If I was in any position to, I would kill them myself, and if you ever are, it's your moral obligation to, as well.
Harm reduction can take many forms. I've always said eating the rich is vegan, but honestly so is punching Nazis. You don't always get a chance to do one, let alone both but when you can, you should.
The secret service would kill you if it was Trump. I don't think it's a worthwhile trade, the old guy's going to die soon anyways. His life is not worth more than yours.
Plus violence is what they want so they can really start telling the military to do things.
I agree with the sentiment though. I think they both deserve to be executed.
Trump should have been executed for treason in 2021.
Plus violence is what they want so they can really start telling the military to do things.
How long are you guys gonna keep making this argument? They will fabricate any excuse they need, unconstrained by whether or not you actually fought back.
Except, you know, the secret service already let one shooter try.
It’s still an important symbolic gesture to discourage future dictators.
Donald Trump and Elon Musk should be assassinated ☺️ 😍 😋 🤪 😇
Wow, just being able to say that when inciting violence is banned on most other social media felt empowering. I know to y'all this probably comes off as just another basic one-liner comment, but.. I've only recently started using Lemmy when I used to just browse Reddit without an account. There were times when I almost felt crazy, because I felt so much rage against these rapist scum I thought- given the opportunity- I would end their lives in an instant, consequences be damned. But on Reddit where any talk of violence (against the state) is banned (but violence via political persecution of minorities is A-OK!), I thought I was just a radical extremist.
And maybe I am a radical extremist, Lemmy as a whole is certainly small enough to be an echo chamber, but in a time where peaceful protest does nothing but paint a target on your back, free speech by necessity needs to include ushering people to make use of "the 4th box of liberty," the cartridge box. By god does it feel good to finally be able to say that.
You can even say things like "someone should put a heavy duty zip tie round JD vance's neck and then leave him to choke in a rest stop toilet". Or "someone should put powdered death cap mushrooms in Donald Trumps food".
Where can I report that my dead grandad was advocating violence on Juno beach in 1944?
freeze peach patriots
"You know how a popular time travel question is, if you could go back and kill Hitler, would you? People are going to be asking the same about Trump and Musk (and Vance and Thiel and a whole mess of others) if the dust ever settles."
The dust always settles eventually.
Just that it may be radioactive dust this time
And that's the big thing that worries me. In the last world war, even in an all-out war with no holding back, there was a limited amount of damage that could be done to the world and civilization. Today? We have enough nukes to destroy human civilization a dozen times over.
Go back and make sure everyone involved in Teapot Dome scandal actually get arrested and charged.
Teapot Dome, Business plot, Watergate, Iran-Contra, and never end reconstitution on the south.
Trump leads to an independent and united Europe
Bleak when only a time traveler from the future can save the world from impending doom at this point.
I actually like the idea of giving both Donald Duck and Elon Musty a bunch of laxatives and having them fight over one small bathroom.
RIP King.
Me getting banned from asklemmy there for just saying Luigi
Just going to leave this here
This is the argument I get in with people in my life. Even my significant other is starting to fall into this trap that "they can't hold up cabinet selection" due to some misguided notion that holding your nose and being respectful is necessary. I blame coworkers and not wanting to think about something that stresses them out. It is maddening.
Thank you for linking the paper.
I unsubbed from everything over there except for Working Class Calendar and Work Reform. Normies that are still normies in 2025 making me irrationally angry.
Yup. We're in an extra normal time and people are still clutching to decorum and civility as if it matters anymore.
The Fuhrer shot himself, if I recall. Not that I wouldn't go back in time to shoot him again.
Shoot him earlier, before he killed all those people.
Wouldn't change anything, he only joined an already existing movement and became its leader, but without him it'd simply have been someone else.
Start at the peace treaties after ww1, already make them similar to the ones after ww2 (promoting strong European collaboration to ensure peace instead of punishing the losers).
Lemmy.world isn't even based in the US 💀
It didn't take me long to realize blocking that instance was a good idea. I didn't know about lemmygrad and hexbear (which federated) until someone from lemmy.world pointed out another user was "brigading", and looking up how lemmy.world eventually blocked that instance the feeling I have towards lemmy.world is that they act like the "world police" of the lemmy-verse.
are there any examples of this?
Damn, I switched communities to have a local argument (and I remembered I had an account here), but after seeing how us-centric dotworld has become when the account view changed, I'm not switching back.
Is it illegal where their instance is located?
Who cares? Have balls about your tiny and insignificant website, you're not gonna get jailed because some user posted something on your lemmy instance
Just a shield for their shite opinions
Could be worse. Try saying anything critical about Putin to the admins of .ml. Instant ban from like, 20 different communities.
And for that matter, just politely disagree with the hive and see how fast you get Rule 1’d.
Not in anyone’s defense, but I’m pretty certain I read that .world is hosted in the Netherlands and are subject to the laws there. Suggesting harm on others is against the laws there or something.
.ml has no excuse for their authoritarian bullshit.
Yeah that's bullshit. I have said plenty of anti Putin stuff in my instance. Same for being critical of China. I just don't spew propaganda without context when I do.
Cool. Check the modlogs bud. Also, I said to the admins, not just in some random shithole edgelord community. One of them even refuses to answer when asked if they support Putin.
Also, I went back 8 months of your comments. Not a single opinion that goes against the hive was posted in .ml. You brought your shit to world and posted it there where it’s allowed.
Imagine that.
.ml's defense is they are trash beings like .dbzer
.dbzer0 is pretty cool for the most part. I have no Issues with them. .ml however, can burn in a dumpster fire for all I care.
Someone at the end of the day owns the instance in question here. Many might not want the secret service knocking on their door.
Here's the thing though, what good does it do? Get angry and talk about all of the things that are horrific and are Nazi like. People will do what they do with the information they have.
Note: I'm very glad I'm not a mod here.
you shouldnt judge someone based on the instance they choose to moderate on thats just as bad as judging someone for their sexual orientation and if you want to see change you should become a lemmy world mod and be the change you want to see
thats just as bad as judging someone for their sexual orientation
As a queer person and a mod on lemmy.world, no it absolutely is not. Not even close. Not even in the same ballpark. An identity is 100% not the same as willingly choosing actions. You can disagree with the broad statement but equating it to bigotry is wildly out of touch.
Please don't use this analogy again.
No one was born as a LW mod.
the two have in common the fact that a part of their identity regardless of choice is being attacked for no other reason than that
demonizing people is demonizing peopleare you going to demonize or mock someone who has chosen to be a cleaner or a fast food worker are you going to demonize or mock someone who believes in god and is living peacefully with their neighbours
This just in: LW mods win oppression Olympic gold over sexual minorities.
What a ridiculous comparison.
Same people who said criticizing political officials for their actions actually makes you a secret Trump supporter.
You should get some punctuation in there, man. Maybe a period, or a comma, or an exclamation point could help break up that endless flow of words.
The reality is that complacency is complicity. I would agree that LW mods don't make up the instance rules, but if they are actively enforcing the rules instead of turning a blind eye then that is something that can be judged.
And this absolutely is not comparable to someone's sexual orientation lmfao. Judging based on someone's sexual orientation is bad. Judging someone based on the rules they enforce is 100% fair.
Inb4 of any bs that I'm advocating anything. I'm not. I'm speaking generally and I'm saying if you enforce a rule you inherently support that rule and those it defends in that context
