Carnival float from yesterday's parade in Cologne

Edit: Düsseldorf, apparently. But Kölsch is still better than Alt

Oh Germany, you really get us. Can we let Germans vote in the next US election? After all, we're already letting Russia take a hand.

Germany is more familiar than most about what the GOP has become.

Ye, you could say we have insider information

Actually, we have about as many Nazi fuckwits by percentage as the US. The difference is that we don't let them leverage 30% into an electoral majority.

I'm guessing it's a play on the Dolchstoßlegende? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stab-in-the-back_myth

Yeah, let's re-elect Brandon and keep killing tens of thousands of russians, palestinians, yemenians and with luck also chinese.

That's not nazi at all.

To pro-war attitude is out of control. Say what you will about Trump, but he's the first president since I've been alive that hasn't started any new wars during his presidency. The fact that no one cares about that really opened my eyes.

[–] bigFab@lemmy.world 0 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Ppl speaking always about Trump like 'did proly provoke', 'must've affected', 'would do worse'.

Meanwhile Brandon can be the butcher and we all blame it on the other guy.

It's ok to analyze what bad decisions Trump took, but you have zero respect for human life if you consider Biden a good politician.

[–] Diplomjodler@feddit.de 0 points 8 months ago

Just because I think Trump is a narcissistic moron with dementia doesn't mean I have to like Biden. He's definitely the lesser evil in this case, though.

[–] Diplomjodler@feddit.de 0 points 8 months ago

Yeah, so inconsiderate of Biden to send all those tens if thousands of Russians to their deaths round Avdiivka.

Actually that's from the parade in Düsseldorf

Oops. Posted a correction.

I thought it was illegal to display anything Nazi related in public?

[–] yetAnotherUser@feddit.de 0 points 8 months ago

Only if the display is meant to glorify or show support for Nazis, which can but doesn't have to be displaying a swastika.

This is clearly criticism and satire, so it's covered under artistic freedom.

Have you had hefe weizen? Stupid small glasses of Kölsch that comes with a subscription service

[–] Numhold@feddit.de 0 points 8 months ago

We all know that Hefeweizen is the best beer in the world, but don‘t change the subject. This man needs to be disciplined for his horrendous taste!

The artist failed to capture his fatness/femininity

[–] Anamana@feddit.de 0 points 8 months ago

Femininity?
