Here is a brief comparison of Nama war to the holocaust by the times of israel.
- references “The Genocidal Gaze: From German Southwest Africa to the Third Reich,” author Elizabeth Baer
- Several Germans, .. imparted the evil to the next generation — including the colony’s imperial administrator
- Heinrich Goring, whose son Hermann Goring became one of Hitler’s most notorious lieutenants.
- Dr. Eugen Fischer performed gruesome experiments on indigenous people, sending their severed heads back to Germany; his university students included another future doctor infamous for his experiments — Josef Mengele.

In 2020, the last year the government provided figures for, Germany contributed €108 million ($116 million) to support foreign allied troops on its soil, up from €100 million the year before.
Can't make mexico pay for the wall, but they can make Germany pay for their occupation.

Another comparison I'd been thinking of was the northern outbreak of the Angolan war of independence, where the Portuguese bombed tens of thousands of people after a revolt broke out where nationalists killed a lot of Portuguese colonizers that weren't soldiers or cops (also some African workers imported from other parts of the colony). There's a German connection too in that West Germany armed fascist Portugal throughout these colonial wars & was treating wounded Portuguese troops.

When I feel like finding it again, it was days ago. But off top it's just that it was a counterinsurgency war—both the Nama & Herero rejected German attempts to rule them or their homelands—where the colonizers explicitly used mass killing & forced removal of entire populations as collective punishment while doing a terrible job of taking out the people who were actually fighting them. (Not implying doing a "better job" would make it justified, of course.)

I guess both of those things are just increased state control of narrative.

All these institutions being like "A pro-genocide clampdown on any internal dissent is cool, but the fact that there are people to the right of us is a danger to democracy!"

I was under the impression afd were pretty popular, especially among the right.
tho I have heard people saying “anything but afd” a considerable amount

Utterly hilarious that this is where they draw the line lmao. Obvious PR stunt from Sparkasse, they don't really care about what the compact magazine does, but everyone hates the AfD rn. Compact is so overtly fascist, so extremely racist and antisemitic, if the Sparkasse really cared, they would've stopped doing business with them many years ago.

Ah ok ich habe jetzt den Teil gelesen dass du meintest. Ich glaube ich lasse es hier. Ich sage dass sie sagen nur was sie gemacht haben, und sagen nicht dass andere Menschen genau sowas machen sollen. Glaub immer noch dass es ist ziemlich ok, ist auf Deutsch, ich glaube die mit grossem Kummer verstehen das alles nicht.
Ehrlich gesagt ist es immer noch ziemlich schwierig für mich zu sagen was geht und was nicht. Also ich entscheide einfach dass es geht. Ist auf jeden Fall ziemlich wichtig Infos darein oder
Wann die 110 Probleme haben, können sie fragen dass es gelöscht wird.
Und ich verstehe auch deine Motivierung, aber zumindest in diesem Forum ist es nicht wirklich deine Verantwortung, sondern meine. Ich habe nicht die Energie alle Deutsche Texte heir zu lesen ehrlich gesagt

Ich hab's nicht komplett durchgelesen
Ja, der Teil den ich meine ist ziemlich am Ende des Artikels/Statements, ab "Am Vorabend des 8ten März". Ich will es hier jetzt nicht zitieren, ich denke das wäre wohl noch problematischer als der Link.
Du weisst, ich bin selbst kein Freund dieser Regel, ich hab nix gegen den Artikel oder OP. Ich will bloss nicht, dass jemand in Schwierigkeiten gerät.

Ich hab's nicht komplett durchgelesen, aber ich habe nix über Brand oder Mord Oder ähnliches gelesen. Ich glaube auch dass es ist von weniger Wichtigkeit weil das nicht auf Ner gemeinsame Sprache geschrieben ist.

In modernity at least, I'd say colonial war and counterinsurgency and statism are the same thing.
Mass killing and forced removal is a feature of settler colonialism in general.
