Debunking Namibia-East Germany lies

[stillnaomi]

A recent [2025] study conducted by VoxUkraine, with support from the International Renaissance Foundation, sought to analyze the Ukrainian public's ability to identify "Russian propaganda narratives." However, in doing so, the survey inadvertently revealed a striking reality: 33% of Ukrainians in cities and 53% in villages believe that Nazi ideology is widespread in Ukraine. These are staggering numbers, and they raise serious questions about the narrative that any discussion of neo-Nazism in Ukraine is merely a "Kremlin talking point."

The study was meant to debunk "Russian disinformation" by testing how the Ukrainian public perceives certain claims, including the presence of Nazi ideology in Ukraine. But instead of proving such claims to be "false," the survey found that a significant portion of the Ukrainian population itself believes that Nazism is a real and widespread issue in their country

I want to talk about Namibia

According to (historian) Edward Vaughan aid to Namibia was the highest prority in East German politics

East Germany sent the 2nd most support to Namibia (after the USSR)

If you google anything about East German reparations to Namibia the AI overview (help me how do i turn it off) will tell you they never existed

And something i found out the other day is that they will deny Holocaust reparations too!

Anyway, there was no way East Germany could have paid reparations to Namibia BECAUSE NAMIBIA WAS A SOUTH AFRICAN COLONY UNTIL 1989 WHICH IS FAMOUSLY WHEN THE EAST WAS COLONIZED!

And I personally would class; thousands of free refugee houses, military support, 900.000 childrens toys, clothes and food for 1.000.000 people, 99.000.000 deutschmarks of aid, building hospitals and schools (with teachers and medical staff & equiptment supplied) as something very close to reparations at least.

Plus, holocaust reparations functioned similarly, not only providing a pension to victims but social benefits such as priviliged education and allocation of housing.

Conclusion: East Germany paid reparations to holocaust & Herero and Nama victims way before West Germany did. And it should be noted that West Germany had a law requiring 20% of all government bodies to be nazis, gave 800.000 nazis amnesty, supported both south africa and rhodesia extensively etc so their reparations mean jack shit anyway.

a lot of folks on the anti-communist left fall into a sort of nihilistic despair at the state of things because they are unwilling to see the incredible advances in actual socialist projects as real, leaving an increasingly derelict capitalist structure as the only thing that exists in their perspective. which, in fairness, would also make me rather depressed! getting over the hurdle of accepting that socialism exists in real life does just totally ameliorate that, however.

[mystery-incorporated-whore]

isnt it funny (read: im fucking exhausted) that at the end of the day it all comes back to binaristic thinking, no matter how much tmes claim they want to "abolish the binary entirely"

"transandrophobia has to exist as the transmisogyny but for trans men." "why cant we get umamusume but with anime horse boys :(" "trans women and trans men suffer differently but equally." "forcemasc." "but i want a blue version :((((((("

you see two classifications that happen to be related by a common factor (transness) and have arbitrarily decided they must be equal and opposite in every way. i cannot think of anything that is more "adhering to a binary" than that

"Yes I know Ukraine might be run by fascists and nazi sympathizers and Israel might be commiting a genocide against Palestinians but you have to understand, they're the only nations in their regions that support the LGBTQIA+ under certain conditions, those conditions being that you can't talk about it. And their the only democracy in their regions (no meaningful change can happen tho)"

This is how Ukraine and Israhell supporters genuinly sound to me. They support genocidal states believing they're democratic paradises that can do no wrong.

Free Palestine and all opressed people!!!

When white ppl r massacred it’s called a holocaust but the 1974 Bangladesh genocide is called a famine …. Of course the holocaust was awful but black and brown ppl esp black ppl have been through hundreds of “holocausts” but u don’t see us demanding all this insane unfair shit lol and saying that justifies us ethnically cleansing another group of people!

[genossin-astrid]

Before any reactionary mentions how non-white people were also victims of the holocaust, they literally arent considered holocaust victims

West/Modern Germany refused to pay reparations to; Roma & Sinti people, afrogermans, homosexuals, bisexuals, prostitutes, trans people, mentally ill people, lesbians, disabled people, alcoholics & addicts, unemployed & homeless people, pacifists, exiled people, communists, or people who couldnt prove they were negatively affected by their experience.

A study literally found that only 700 victims of Auschwitz were eligible for reparations (aka 1.6%)

And of course the country (g*rmany) that is so so proud of their heritage supported literally every genocide since.

This could literally not be more true.

[animallover432]

Ok but even if they aren’t often thought as victims of the holocaust, factually they are.

[genossin-astrid]

The word holocaust literally doesnt describe them, it wasnt coined to describe them.

weird how abled people don't want you to have supports because it may Annoy Them. no, you can't have a shower chair, it'll get in my way. no, you can't put subtitles on, im here to watch a movie not read. because the needs of the disabled are somehow lesser than the wants of the abled.

whether or not men benefit from feminism has no bearing on whether feminism is worthwhile

[lesbianfidelcastro]

Kind of jarring talking to organised Marxist-Leninists irl and we agree that Cuba's reforms are a strategic advancement towards economic development and will probably allow them to prevent regime change, and then I go online and everyone has embraced doomerism wholeheartedly

Did you think Cuba was doing well before? Is your concern for the Cuban people and the survival of existing socialism, or simply the preservation of ideological purity? Do you want to just feel nice, so far away from the actual struggles, thinking that Cuba is doing socialism "properly"?

[mellodrammattic]

"cuba abandoned socialism!" shut the fuck up. that sentence alone tells me you have no understanding of cuba's situation. if you're going to speak with that much confidence, at least try knowing what the fuck you're talking about first.

[hyenaswine]

i think people are starting to confuse class analysis with bioessentialism. like... no not all men do this, but Men as a constructed social class do do this. that's still okay to say. that is regular material analysis of the world around us.
