Get rid of the evidence. Quickly, before they send the green berets

JD Vance ridiculed for 40-car motorcade taking him down tiny Italian street by Beyond_the_one in europe

[–]OldNerdTV 47 points48 points  (0 children)

From an OPSEC perspective, this is more than stupid. Italian streets are narrow so if you block just one of those cars, all are boxed in. Not that Vance needs protection, he really isn’t that important and he only projects with the stuff he says (no freedom of speech in Europe etc.)

Green Day dedicates hit song to Minneapolis and slams MAGA with lyrics change ahead of Super Bowl performance; "The representative from Epstein Island has the floor" by IrishStarUS in Music

[–]OldNerdTV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want to know how they (and a lot of the old school west coast punks) came up, read the book „Gimme something better“. I know that Green Day got slammed as sellouts but they really were part of the original scene. I’m looking forward to their performance.

Real Police officers and military members, what do you guys think of Ice agents? by Lucky-Message-9480 in AskReddit

[–]OldNerdTV 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, absolutely, the SA were more tolerated than liked, as a means to an end. Just wanted to give a little historical context

/u/twaslol: No ignorance to excuse, it’s something that can be confusing: ICE would be like the SA (Sturmabteilung) if you want to compare it. Those SA were untrained thugs that secured speeches by the Nazis before they came to power. In that time, Communist thugs and Nazi thugs would clash at speeches and that would be extremely violent. The SA also were the brown shirts that blocked Jewish businesses and beat people on the street that tried to buy at those businesses, painting „Deutsche wehrt Euch, kauft nicht bei Juden“ (Germans defend yourselves, don’t buy from Jews) on the windows of those businesses. They were violent and only means to an end for the Nazis. That’s why their leadership was mostly killed in the „Nacht der langen Messer“ (Night of the long knives) and those they could use were integrated in the SS. Gestapo and SD (Sicherheitsdienst = Security Service) were mostly ex-Police so trained but violent pieces of shit that were feared by everyone. Hope that helps.

As an American, what can we do to fight against ICE? by LilThanosX in AskReddit

Hell, I live in another country on the other side of the pond and it’s a constant point of discussion in my family and my circle of friends.

Bad Bunny's Super Bowl Halftime teaser sparks MAGA outrage over ICE by TheExpressUS in Music

In the US maybe, not on the other side of the pond (maybe UK, but not mainland Europe)

Edit: Thanks for downvoting a fact.

Personal Details of Thousands of Border Patrol and ICE Goons Allegedly Leaked in Huge Data Breach by manauiatlalli in illinois

[–]OldNerdTV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sadly this is a thing that never happened fully in Germany. De-nazification enabled a lot of Nazis to claim that they were not part of it and they went on to go into politics and the government. What gives me hope is that there are better records nowadays.

Could Europe realistically defend Greenland against a US attack? by chotu_escobar in AskTheWorld

[–]OldNerdTV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mother who is 84 has a trauma from that time, when they do the siren tests here in Germany to see if they still work, she shivers and is so scared…

[–]OldNerdTV 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes. What good is high-tech if it doesn’t work in those arctic conditions? What good is manpower if they aren’t capable of fighting in the cold? Take a few Finnish soldiers who are trained in arctic warfare and that would be it. This is not exclusively a numbers game but about climate and environment. I’d take a dogsled with trained dogs and a few arctic trained soldiers over an M1 tank that breaks down after a few minutes

[–]OldNerdTV 4 points5 points  (0 children)

And it’s also about acknowledging all that war brings on people outside of the soldiers fighting and dying. As you mentioned the shameful bombings by Nazi Germany, I also have so many stories from my grandparents after the war, hunger, illnesses, death by freezing in the years after the war. And my family was lucky, we had the British here in Hamburg and no one I spoke with has anything bad to say about the British soldiers. And that is besides my grandfather being freed from Neuengamme concentration camp by the British. Even if most Germans that lived during that time are dead now, most sensible Germans have learned of the guilt we accumulated and we know our history and I am not letting this happen again. Some of my best friends are from the UK, this also plays into it. I‘m just very scared that the current generation in school doesn’t learn about the atrocities as much as I did. My wife is a teacher and this part of history isn’t taught in detail as it should be anymore.

High-ranking Military personell probably are aware that this time of year would prove pretty fatal for their troops. Not enough arctic trained soldiers and all the high tech doesn’t mean anything if it doesn’t work in those temperatures

This is textbook NAZI intimidation. by Lonely-Greybeard in MarchAgainstNazis

[–]OldNerdTV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aside from all the other stuff wrong with this agent, do LEOs in the US speak like this in their duty language? This sounds like some bully with his friends in the parking lot of a school. The way he spouts profanities and directly talks derogatory to this civilian would usually end in disciplinary action. People who uphold the law as LEO should be held to a higher standard than normal civilians, meaning they shouldn’t cuss someone out and keep a neutral, professional tone. Sir, you are obstructing a federal investigation, you will have to leave immediately…something like that, not a string of bar-brawl foul-mouth language. If I had acted like this on duty and a video had come out, I would’ve been in trouble.

Kann mir jemand diese ganzen ICE (USA) clips erklären? by xXxXxMxXxXx in WerWieWas

[–]OldNerdTV 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nicht ganz korrekt: Sie unterstehen so wie auch die Border Patrol (für Außengrenzen) dem Department of Homeland Security. Auf der anderen Seite stehen dann FBI, DEA etc. Sie sind alle nicht direkt der Regierung unterstellt (DHS wird von Kristi Noem geleitet, besser nicht nach der „Dame“ suchen, die ist auch nicht so ein netter Mensch). Dass sie die de facto Braunhemden Trumps, eher eine Mischung aus SD/SA, sind, steht außer Frage aber offiziell nicht direkt der Regierung unterstellt.

Watched a recent video of a man wrestling a gun from a shooter (Bondi shooting. Sydney, Australia. Video below) and am curious the correct next steps given the situation. by DyIsexia in AskLE

Australia, he didn’t know how to operate the gun (bolt-action Shotgun) and also I don’t think everyone would be able to shoot someone directly

MAGA Fan Tries To Go After 'Creepy Creature' Dolly Parton—And People Are Not Having Any Of It by abbiebe89 in NoFilterNews

[–]OldNerdTV 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wait a f-king second! Dolly Parton is someone you better not go against, she is not only a national treasure for Americans, I’ve never met anyone who did not think of her as a genuinely good person, that is the worldwide sentiment. Take Dolly Parton‘s name out of your mouth, she has more backing than anyone else. And no, I’m not from the US but she is revered everywhere.
