You might believe that the following facts are besides your point, but I still want to get this straight:

• Hyperinflation in the Weimar Republic reached its peak in 1923
• the NSDAP (the nazi party) got only 2% of the vote in the 1928 elections
• Hitler rose to power in 1933, after getting over 40% of the vote.

Note that there were 4 national elections between 1930 and 1933. The Weimar Republic was about as stable politically as a house of cards on a trampoline.

It’s still true that part of the success of Hitler’s party was due to former non-voters losing fate in the established parties, especially in regards to economic policy, but it is not as direct of a connection as your comment makes it out to be.

Oh, sorry, I think we have a misunderstanding. Your news post is fine. It is the way you interact with others that made me just a bit sad.

I’ve got the impression that you have at some point decided to use a bit of your energy every day to make lemmy a worse place. Maybe this is even your outlook towards the world in general, I have no way to know. I just want to let you know that you are succeeding. :)
