Nazis are a protected minority in spain now

Whow quite hard to pick a smiley for this thread. I just went with a generic LOL in the end.

Sadly cant find an english news article about this, so my source is german: www.heise.de/tp/features/Achtu…

(Heise is the usual news source for german programmers, with their magazine "c't" [which is short for "computer technik", computer technology, and I have no clue why theres an apostrophe between the c and the t] and I'm a programmer. So this is a source with merit)

Anyway nazis are a protected minority now in spain.

I cant concur since nazis are not an ethnicity nor they are a religious group. They are a political group and their ideology is clearly racist, anti-democratic, anti-human rights, and extremist. Such groups shouldnt receive a general protection in a democracy. This is the error germany did in the 1920s and thats one of the reasons why we ended up having Hitler raise to power in my country [1]. I would say that you cannot tolerate intolerance, that just doesnt work.

Racism is a variant of stupidity [2]. According to the natural sciences, i.e. biology, there is only one human race currently in existence, with the last competing human race, the neanderthals, dying out about 40,000 years ago [3]. And we know that originally we are all eastern africans, every single one of us [4]. Thus racism based on an idea there would be human races is stupid. And racism based on religions is even more obviously wrong [5].




[1] The main reason being how world war one was ended, fully blaming Germany on a technicality for the war that really was an end result of many bad developments over all europe, and had been predicted decades before it actually happened, and not just by a few people, but that was the mainstream opinion of the time. And the peace treaty of Versailles was so bad that for example the USA refused to sign it, and the conditions for Germany so unrealistic that it was unfulfillable, as for example the famous british economist Sir John Maynard Keynes pointed out. Some people thus argue that WW1 and WW2 are simply the exact same war, since WW1 had such a poor end result that the conflict only excellerated even more.


[2] A world in which everyone has the same looks, religion, opinion etc might offer a sense of comfort to some people, and this is understandable. However this also makes life more boring and reduces the overall creativity of a society. When China closed their borders "because they are the perfect nation" they introduced a century long period of decline of what was the most powerful or second most powerful (after India) nation of its time. And the USA got powerful during the 19. century, when it was the "melting pot", with all kinds of people from all kinds of nations merging into what was ultimately a very progressive and productive community.

Thus introducing foreigners, such as muslims, in your culture will not destroy your culture. It will enrich your culture and it will give you new experiences, makes your life more interesting, and will make your nation more powerful.

Contrary to popular belief among racists, not all muslims are terrorists, and in fact many "mulsims" are atheists, just like many christians, or even members of a christian minority or member of some other non-muslim religion.

Roughly one third of mankind is christian, and roughtly one quarter is muslim. If a actually a quarter of mankind would be terrorist mankind would be no more.

Yes muslims have, on average, more children. Why ? Because they are, on average, more poor. Poor people always have more children than wealthier people. The christian cultured european is in the number disadvantage on todays simply because they are on average wealthier. This number disadvantage hasnt even existed in ages past. If muslims will be wealthier on average they will lose this advantage. They dont have an inherent advantage in fertility. So if you really fear that muslims will overpower you, giving them the same level of wealth would actually help with that.

And yes theres fanatic muslims, and muslim terrorists. There are fanatics and terrorists in all religions. There really is no general cure for that, just like there is no cure against having criminals among your population. And really terrorists are just that, another variant of criminals.

Being a fanatic, meaning believing your own opinion is the right one and everybody else is thus wrong, and thus not being open to arguments, is unfortunately the attitude of too many people. Intelligent people change their opinion when the other party has the better arguments.


[3] They probably died out because thanks to their larger brain and quite a bit larger muscle mass they needed about 7000 calories per day for survival, while modern human beings only need about 1800 calories per day, thus modern human beings had better conditions to survive the general lack of resources during the ice age. The biggest population of neanderthals was probably only about a thousand of them, spread very thin over the near east and europe, so they never have been that many to begin with. It is thus not likely that neanderthals have been wiped out by a conscious act of genocide by modern man, they simply died out because of the pressure from having another more efficient species that competed for the same resources.


[4] Ignoring that we picked up some genes from neanderthals in the near east and, in asia, possibly some more types of previous human races, while spreading over the planet. We know every non-african has about 2% of neanderthal genes and about 40% of the neanderthal genome has survived. Since europeans do not have more neanderthal genes than asians, the two races must have mixed in the near east, not in Europe. We dont know for sure if asians have genes of previous human race because that race died out 70,000 years ago thanks to the Toba supervolcano
and our very refined methods to reconstruct the neanderthal genes do not work with material thats 70,000 years old. We do however know that specifically tibetans have surprisingly efficient adaptions to living at great heights and it is thus believed thats because they picked up genes from an older human race.


[5] Contrary to what some people believe, racism based on religion is a very popular variant of racism. The german nazis for example, the most radical or at least most "successful" racists in known history, have been racist against the jewish religion. The definition of the hitler regime who is a jew doesnt mention genes or anything, it exclusively refers to the religion. Racism is a political term and thus defined politically, not scientifically. Scientifically, racism simply makes no sense.

So how well did that work for Spain previously? Considering that they underwent a Reconquista and the Inquisition on their way to becoming an early
colonial power. Just a bad argument for diversity right there-- for it to work, you'd have to pick a country where the immigrants are willing to "lose" a certain degree of their Muslimness.

And yes theres fanatic muslims, and muslim terrorists. There are fanatics and terrorists in all religions. There really is no general cure for that, just like there is no cure against having criminals among your population. And really terrorists are just that, another variant of criminals.

So how many Hindu and Buddhist groups are there which act as an advanced vanguard for the conquest of western countries :? Calling the Muslims "terrorists" sounds like calculated understatement when groups like Hamas have manifestos for rotting the USA from within. Better to call them "invaders" in the same vein as La Raza.

And here's actual terrorist propagandists painting conservatives as anti-Muslim, sure looks inclusive doesn't it? :ninjastar:

Also show me ONE person who says that all musloms are terrorists
Protip, you can't because it's a strawman

Assuming this article is accurate, at worst it's reporting on an opinion from the Attorney General of Spain which points out that a law intended to protect minorities can, as phrased, be interpreted as also protecting Nazis since it does not specifically except them from its blanket protection of ideological minorities. This is assuming the statement (a single mention on a single page of an 88 page circular) has been correctly translated from Spanish into German, and - since the article provides no context and does not link to a copy of the source document - it was intended as guidance in enforcing the law rather than a critique of it.

nazi and wannabe nazi will always be around.  brainwashing, idiots in action and complete idiots that don't realize they aren't exactly the right race, mixed race isn't the pure race after all.  but at least there are less and now laws that are for protecting someone from such a monster.  and no, just because you don't agree with someone that doesn't make them a nazi either.  to be fair, it sounds weird that there would be any in Spain at all due to the lack of pure race and they didn't really play with the war all that much, but people do migrate and take their lies and stupidity with them after all.

I agree with Ouroboros. Doing a quick internet search, this is the only other source I can find to corroborate your story: twitter.com/lizcastro/status/1…

Good point. I wish I could read Spanish and figure out exactly what the original document says...

The definition of the hitler regime who is a jew doesnt mention genes or anything, but wait, they did. They followed the beliefs of social darwinism and claimed that jews etc. have "bad genes" that "shall not taint the aryan genes" etc.

>>Thus introducing foreigners, such as muslims, in your culture will not destroy your culture. It will enrich your culture and it will give you new experiences, makes your life more interesting, and will make your nation more powerful.

By the way, Muslims have been living in Russia since the 13th century. Indeed, jihadists are not all Muslims. And indeed, coexistence with another culture provides a rewarding experience. This experience shows that only Muslims who are jihadists need to be killed. This experience also confirms that there is no need to enrich their culture at the expense of Muslims. If they start cutting live sheep right on the streets on holidays, this can be simply forbidden. The same applies to polygamy and the custom of wearing the veil. And if religion forbids a Muslim to eat pork, then that is his right. If he does not serve in the army.

As for the protection of the Nazis, then this idea has a certain practical reason. For example, three jihadists were caught yesterday in the Moscow Region. They started shooting and were killed. Accordingly, three Nazis were caught in Astrakhan today to maintain balance. But they were taken alive. The truth is that in the modern world, jihadists are abundant and have no value. The Nazis are less common. They need to be cherished to preserve the diversity of opinions in society.

The leader is a Socialist.

Fair to assume National Socialist.

Is North Korea democratic?

They made Nazis a protected class.
OuroborosCobra's avatar
That has nothing to do with my question. Also, they didn't. There's no corroborating coverage or reporting that what is claimed in the OP happened.

Now, do you believe North Korea is democratic? After all, they are the Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea.

If you believe socialism and the National Socialist Party are the same thing just because of the name, then you must also believe North Korea is democratic.

Why not? what makes an ideology so different from a religion? for instance islam does promote the destruction of a variety of groups, tells you how society should be organized and the one group that should have supremacy.

And would you look at that, even in Europe the first source of antisemitism is muslims (second is leftists btw). First source of terrorism (which you could as well call political violence) is islam (the left comes third after separatism).

So why not protect people from another repulsive ideology?
OuroborosCobra's avatar
Your only source of something happening in Spain is a German language article, not even a Spanish language article. Worse still, it's not even a publication that specializes in political analysis or anything like that, it's a publication for German computer programmers.

That you couldn't find anything else is a good hint that they've got the facts wrong, either through fabrication or incompetence.

"Some people thus argue that WW1 and WW2 are simply the exact same war"
To say they are the same war is to not understand how WWII started. It is the result of the first but it is not the same, not by a long shot.

"A world in which everyone has the same looks, religion, opinion etc might offer a sense of comfort to some people, and this is understandable. However this also makes life more boring and reduces the overall creativity of a society."
I don't think that's how racists view the world. Racists I think push race onto the idea of a heirachy, that there are races that are superior and races that are subservient. It's less about making everyone the same and more about certain races serving others or getting out of the way.

"introducing foreigners, such as Muslims, in your culture will not destroy your culture"
It's risky. We're talking about societies with different outlooks on the world. That thing above about people having the same opinion, that's how I think many liberals view the world, that people just have rather nice ideas at heart. Wrong. Not everyone is reasonable and liberally minded about things and the uncomfortable truth of the matter is the white race isn't the only one with intolerant people in it.

Muslims aren't all terrorists but many have outdated ideas, more in the countries with Muslim majorities than here. In western countries, Muslims tend to moderate their views and that's pretty good but there is still that risk that more extreme cases will make it through. We for example have a problem with hate preachers who try to convert young Muslims to an extremist way of thinking.

"And really terrorists are just that, another variant of criminals."
No, terrorists are a lot more dangerous than criminals. A lot of criminals are just motivated by petty greed or by personal grievances. The terrorist wishes to mould the world in his vision through violence and fear. Terrorists aren't just criminals the same way the Nazis weren't just another political party.

The truth is that following the first world war the allied forces imposed upon the loser, germany, a requirement to pay reparations to the allies who won, of all their costs in waging war on germany.

All nations were close to bankrupted by the war and the allied countries chose to extract payments to fund their recovery from the german people. This was inhumane and immoral.

This led to rampant hyperinflation and mass starvation in germany.

The seeds of the second world war were sown by the allied powers of england and the USA by this disgusting policy.

The german people became poorer year on year and the only people with money in germany were the jewish people and Adolph Hitler saw his opportunity and took it.

Adolph Hitler said NO to reparations and refused to pay them, the german people then saw an end under Hitlers direction to the mass starvation that england and the USA and the rest of europe had forced them into. Germany began to recover.

If someone takes a starving nation and delivers them prosperity that nation will follow them into hell and back. And that is what germany did they followed Adolph Hitler.

Adolph hitler saved the german people from a horrific life and the german people were not too bothered when england and the USA and the jews were blamed for all their problems, after all it was pretty clear that that was the truth although the innocent party here was the jews whos only fault was they had managed to cling on to a good life.

Thankfully after the second world war instead of demanding that germany pay for the cost of it, the USA helped them rebuild the nation and gave them prosperity and recovery. This is the reason that Germany today is a world power and a great nation.

If you grind someone down they will hate you if you lift someone up they will love you.

yep this is roughly true.

There is much more to the decline of the Republic of Weimar but the reparations were one big part of it.
Raskolnikow110's avatar
Austria-Hungary and Ottoman Empire were also losers of WWI.

Germany began to recover already in Weimarer Republic.

Sovjets and USA helped after WWII (Stalin even suggested reunion in 50s).
