It literally means "Sieg Heil," i.e. Hail Victory. For the first time in many years the American electorate gave election victories to the GOP in such numbers that they rule the White House, House, Senate, SCOTUS (6:3), DOJ, FBI, DHS, ICE, DEA, DOE, FEMA, USAID, Treasury, & DOGE. CPAC's celebrating.

So the “we speak Americun here” party occasionally uses German phrases coined during naziism because they just love the language that the founders voted not to use during the 1795 Continental Congress? Sounds like you wish it was true.

reply

trumpstenacity.bsky.social•4 hours ago

Our founding: 1776. Nazi invasion of Poland: 1939. Which came first: the chicken or the egg? Our founders, all dead long before 1939, could NOT have banned anything that didn't arise prior to 1939!

reply

jerrod.bsky.social•3 hours ago

Since you were unaware.
January 13, 1795, Congress considered a proposal to print the federal laws in German as well as English. During the debate, a motion to adjourn failed by one vote. The final vote rejecting the translation of federal laws, which took place one month later, is not recorded.

reply

Produce the Article, Section, & Clause within COTUS, or the federal statute, which censors & therefore legally precludes Americans from waving to friends & shouting, "Hail Victory" in any language they choose. If German, then "Sieg Heil!" We have lots of Germans in America & it's a GREAT Culture.

Maybe they’re equally disgusting as individuals but the Nazis does more harm. A rapist is unwilling to acknowledge even basic human dignity for women but a Nazi will make a world where it is impossible for many/most people to have any value at all—a world where most rape isn’t even a crime.

ALL of their political power depends on maintaining a parallel reality that they control. In this, a Nazi salute may be a good thing, or not a salute or not Nazi - it's whatever they want it to be. Since they broke with reality, their followers >believe in them< they are not beholden by reality.

reply

peterbarabas.bsky.social•1 day ago

They will often say that those who do not believe in them are brainwashed - and they could be right if "the other side" was never crititical of their leaders - but that is blatantly not the case.
In fact, the international Right's recent advances are built on this asymmetry.
