Not really “powertripping”. Just pathetic. Consider this a notice to avoid feddit.org… I’ve unsubbed and blocked the instance.
We can’t dehumanize fascists for their choice to dehumanize everyone for things outside their control though, because that would be mean, and hurt their sociopath feefees!
Europe stool idly by throughout the 1930’s “tolerating” fascism, and the Nazi’s killed over 100 million people. Don’t make the same mistake as the radical centrists of history. Fascists will not afford you the same tolerance or courtesy.
Germans are the second most numerous nation in Europe after Russians. Germany also has a very active political tech scene that pushes FOSS alternatives and cares about privacy (Datenschutz). For example Firefox has 20% desktop market share compared to 3% in the USA. Nextcloud and Mastodon are based in Germany.
So Germans being very present on Lemmy should not come at much surprise.
