1. Good German Nazi Fascist

13. The name Kavanaugh is Irish.

Gaelic origin to be exact. Where did you hear he was German or that it matters?

14. Good German ... Nazi Sympathisers

Good Germans is a euphemism for German citizens during and after WWII who claimed not to have supported the Nazi regime, but remained silent and did not resist in a meaningful way.[2][3][4] The term further denotes those who claimed ignorance of the Holocaust and German war crimes. Despite these claims, post-war research has suggested that a large number of ordinary Germans were aware of the Holocaust at least in vague terms: captive slave laborers were a common sight, the public knew Jews were being deported to Poland, and the basics of the concentration camp system, if not the extermination camps, were widely known. While there is some controversy as to its exact meaning, the term "Good Germans" is therefore usually used to signify passivity by ordinary Germans in the face of widespread crimes against humanity

19. How about good Americans, good Swedes, good Dutch

Good Japanese, good Mexicans, good Christians, good Buddhists...

Good German are two words and very specific. I don't care what someone on the Internet wrote in a wiki, it's discriminatory and offensive in that context. I'm part Gernan and my wife is German and I find it offensive and derogatory as would most Germans. Fascists like to discriminate between origins, countries, religions and race. Now it's becoming all too common right here. We don't need more discrimination in our society.

22. Yes I am part German too, apologies by me unwarranted.

(How dare you use the Germans as an example of uncontrolled, unbridled, and rampant Fascism.....)

This Good German comment does not stomp down the Germans it stomps down the Fascists and Nazis the Germans permitted their society to become.

There is no shame in being a German - shame enters the equation when one considers that a good portion of the German population (©1930s -1940s) allowed Fascists and Nazis to take over their government, allowed them to proceed in committing unspeakable atrocities and did little to nothing to bring this to a stop.

Thus the terminology "Good Germans", "Complacent Germans", and "Acquiescent Germans" - those who stood by in the face of Fascism and did nothing to contain or halt the human atrocities committed under the banner of the then (German) Nazi (Swastika) flag.


There are no Good Nazis, there are no good Fascists, there are no Good White Supremacists, there are no good alt right.

But Donald Trump embraces all that and welcomes Fascists and Nazis with open arms, is willing and eager to give them a seat at the table,....

This open door policy toward welcoming h Fascists and Nazis must be pushed back and knocked to the ground. Once we allow them to gain a foothold we are doomed to end up where Hitler brought Germany... if we are smart we will spare ourselves the atrocities of reiterating those same mistakes once again.

Before Donald Trump, the Republican Party was a majority conservative party with a white nationalist fringe. Now it’s a white nationalist party with a conservative fringe."

23. Good German,

TOP DEFINITION
Good German
Somebody who turns a blind eye to criminal atrocities comitted by the government. This includes: needless war, lying to the public, stripping civil rights away from the public, ignoring laws held to keep it in check and disrespecting the general populace.

_________


Good German
A citizen of Nazi Germany who participated in or overlooked atrocities while denying personal moral responsibility by appeal to his submission to supposedly legitimate authority.
The American CIA agents who relied on the White House legal justification of torture were nothing more than Good Germans.

2. Great post

Get thee to the greatest page

[sheshe2]

3. Thanks, malaise.

I hate this fugger. He needs to go down in flames.

[malaise]

4. The entire process is rotten to the core

It's sickening

[pangaia]

6. They all are.

INCLUDING CHRIS COLLINS--- NY 27th That's me..

truck loads of dumb or ignorant or selfish or racist or mysoginistic(can't spell that one) or hate filled or ALL OF THOSE.. will vote for the crook over Nate McMurray !!


Collins ran a filty ad shiting on McMurray because he speaks--KOREAN! DUH (He also speaks Chinese and English.. double DUH) And insulted his Korean wife and 1/2 Korean boys.

Okay rant over...

[pangaia]

5. We should all send to newspapers, tv news, twitter everywhere...

great post...

[erronis]

7. I think we're all willing to give this SCOTUS nominee the benefit of the doubts, as long

as he comes clean.

Of course his past actions are as a privileged affluenza afflicted white male. But there may be some like specimens that have actually been positive human beings.

But he seems totally unable to voice a sense of guilt. A willingness to make atonements. Just like the dump in the WH and the repuglicon critters trying to ram through his nomination and selection.

[pangaia]

9. "I think we're all willing to give this SCOTUS nominee the benefit of the doubts,.."

With all DUE respect to a fellow DUer(DUeris) Are you serious?

The guy is a sick, lying self-important white-privileged shit..

[erronis]

11. Only because I don't think these creatures have the ability to understand the enormity

of their actions.

In my mind it's a safe bet that a mea culpa would not be in their Jesuit (or other RW/rigthtious) vocabulary.

Maybe I was just sending out a safe taunt knowing that I would get no response.

Yes, this whole crowd is sick and perverse. I happened to have interactions with Cheney and others and understood that their modus was just to win at any cost.

[sheshe2]

18. No.

None.

Period.

[sheshe2]

12. Credit to: All Hat no Cattle.

They put it together.

8. Greatest page now!!

I never knew about the other crap he was involved in

16. Long history with Ken Starr...

The impeachment hearing and the sick questions he listed to ask Monica/ Bill.

Here are the links.

Brett Kavanaugh Urged Graphic Questions in Clinton Inquiry

WASHINGTON — Brett M. Kavanaugh, President Trump’s Supreme Court nominee, urged prosecutors investigating President Bill Clinton to question him in graphic detail about his sexual relationship with Monica Lewinsky, a White House intern, according to a memorandum released on Monday by the National Archives.

The document betrayed deep hostility to Mr. Clinton, and it included 10 proposed questions about matters like oral sex and masturbation.

Former members of Mr. Starr’s team have said that Mr. Kavanaugh, who is now a judge on the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, immediately regretted its tone.

15. SCOTUS is ruined for at least decades

Its reputation will be in tatters. Wonder how Roberts feels about this.

[sheshe2]

17. Frankly.

As Chief Justice, my guess, he is disturbed. The court he presides over is his legacy and it is about to become a clown show. Divisive. Partisan. Unjust as a partisan hack takes center stage. A man who is unable to control himself and has an agenda that he will pursue at all costs. He made it clear that he will seek and destroy Democrats and women. He will attack them and their rights. Vengeance is his and that is how he will rule.

No justice no peace.

[Volaris]

20. If that happens, watch for Roberts to go the other way..

And if Roberts, for whatever reason, turns out to be another Souter..

Well I would actually be ok with that I think lol.

[sheshe2]

21. I have heard it say he will do just that.

However, Kavanaugh should be disbarred. He has no place on any court in the land. His 'performance' at the committee was an embarrassment. A two year old shows more restraint.
