          Good work. Now majority of NATO countries are social nazists that want to restore the third reich, pretty logical stuff

            NATO is the US’s main military foothold in Europe. And considering the Nazis explicitly emulated their conquest for lebensraum in eastern Europe on the colonialist manifest destiny project of the US, its not hard to see why NATO not only early on, but even now, would continue to work with white supremacists.

            Its more accurate to say that NATO exists to continue upholding the interests of US and European capital.

            Some of NATOs recent hits:

              On Media Bias/Fact Check, The Grayzone is still pending evaluation, but is marked as a news outlet that publishes conspiracy and pseudoscience, although being a premature labeling. Of course, we should wait for a full review

                How exactly do you trust that site more than any other site that claims to be impartial? Huge news outlets that tout themselves as being objective and unbiased like the Guardian, Independent, AP, etc have been called out for anti-far-left fake news so what makes this site so special?

                  I wouldn’t say special, I just mentioned a fairly credible fact-checking website, but I might be wrong as others sites can review the news outlet, or have already.

                  Also: here, here and here are MB/FC’s reviews on those outlets you mentioned, updated this March

                    Strongly suggest you consider doing your own critical thinking on every issue and news source rather than relying on another website to tell you how to think about a media source. These fact verifying sites and news bias identifiers are only good for reinforcing internet arguments with ad hominem fallacy and wasting peoples time. There are good and bad stories in a pro imperial NYT and anti imperial Grayzone. Please read the article, think critically about it, then form an opinion.

              It’s basically like hearing from a nazi talking about the labour party. Instead they’ll talk about how for example NATO works to undermind the white race. You grose me out, you and all the other disgusting people that propel this kind of shit on Lemmy. I don’t know how things are socially for you with these things, maybe you never talk about it with people you know IRL.

                I literally showed you 2 nazi generals who helped found NATO, and showed you multiple examples of todays NATO glorifying nazis. How on earth can you possibly defend this?

                  Because this and that doesn*t mean thismakes this and that. Basic level stuff like ‘correlation doesn’t mean causation’ type of meme.

                    Correlation and causation are mathematical concepts relating to a set of numeric data. It doesn’t apply when the organization in question has literally been caught praising prominant Nazis, AND had Nazi founders. That’s not correlation, that’s them doing stuff.

                  No, go defend NATO to someone ignorant of its history. There’s nothing I could possibly learn from you.

                    That’s not a factual comment. At least provide proper sources apart from some Wikipedia screenshots and a far-left tabloid website. You’re countering one extremist viewpoint with another, which is… interesting.

        Have you seen the Nazi flags being flown by American rightists and the US politicians that cheer them on and call them patriots and fine people? The Nazi flags flown during the January 6 coup attempt and the US politicans that just now blocked an investigation and completely deny that fascism had anything to do with it?

        Guess which country has the most power in NATO.

        @Nevar@lemmy.ml

        Really though, this is annoying with regards to who the general secretary of NATO is.

        It’s not many years ago a far right terrorist called Anders Breivik killed almost a 100 teenagers attending a youth party summer camp of the party he was a leader of at the same time as he was Norway’s state minister at the time. The terrorist suspected the labour party for being communists (labour party being the party is was leader of)

          The Azov Battalion, a neo Nazi group, burned 46 people alive in the Trade Union House fire in Odessa in 2014. Of which Roman is affiliated with. Your ex state minister is a politician and now leads one of the most beligerent military alliances in the world. Sorry to break it to you.
