Fun fact: this dude is a “maoist” who like the ACP and is friends with some german nazbols
like dog they don’t need your support they force you to support them at gunpoint and have killed countless millions
The Flag doesn’t represent the Government, it represents the people of our country.
to them, too, then.
If this person had been alive in 1940 they’d be making the same argument about the Nazi flag.
The Flag doesn’t represent the Government, it represents the Volk.
The flag doesnt represent the state but the nation
Coming from somewhere that has a very widespread flag culture I kind of get what he is saying but it makes little sense either way. When you’re at a protest against things the German state does, anyone who is not a disingenuous prick who was just going to find something else to cry crocodile tears over anyways understands that the German flag you’re burning does in fact represent the German state and political elite and not all German people.
He kinda forgot east germany existed lol

I was about to say “what a peculiar world we live in, a maoist that’s against burning flags, German ones at that too!”
But saying he’s a nazi-maoist that breathes the same air as the nazbols, strasserites, and nazis makes perfect sense.
Rural-fascists appropriate Maoist rhetoric about the countryside surrounding the city and so forth. I think it’s all just aesthetics at this point.
Fascist really do love their aesthetics
I guess Germany needed some Patsocs to add into their mix of terrible politics
Germany is quite literally the birthplace of patsocs. They just were called something different
I wonder how many of them even know the names of Lasalle, Bernstein and Kautsky
Not as much as heiddeger, Strasser, or larouche
this is the true flag that represents the German people
Dont insult the flag
no, it represents the government. the american flag doesn’t represent me. fuck that. i dont want to be represented by a hate symbol. neither should germans whose government is aiding israel in a genocide while brutalizing the very citizens the flag supposedly represents for speaking out.
no Germany as a whole is bad actually
How are you a bloody leftist then? The OG Soviets knew they are against the current Russian regime, so that’s why the Soviet union had a whole new flag and renamed cities: hence Leningrad and Stalingrad.
Oh no… anyway
The only way for the national flag - the emblem of the state - to belong to the people is if the government of that nation also actually belongs to the people.
Which in a liberal democracy it does not and the state acts according to the whim of capital.
Fact: the flag is being worn by the cops who serve the government that serves international capitalism. Who, in all practical sense of ownership, does the flag belong to?
Getting huffed about somebody burning your country’s flag is like getting mad at someone for destroying a copy of your wife’s boyfriend’s wristwatch.
Personally I’d wait until the jack booted thugs of authority are no longer festooning themselves with a symbol before debating whether it’s vulgar to symbolically trash the symbol of said reactionary goons.
Death to Deutschland! :germany-cool:
Funny that they are talking about „larping“, whilst being an apparent member of the „Arbeiterbund“. The organization, that’s stuck in 1920 with all of their actions and that wants to rebuild the KPD, even though we have a literal successor party to the KPD with the DKP already. The Arbeiterbund is known to have some „interesting“ view points.
At least Antideutsche hate Germany i guess… one step ahead
(this is satire. You do not, under any circumstances, “gotta hand it to
hitlerantideutsche” .lol @ the German
.
just because my country committed the greatest atrocity known to man and is currently assisting in committing the second greatest atrocity, doesn’t mean it’s bad
Greatest *publicly recognized atrocity known to man.
The crimes of colonialism are just as brutal and have endured over a far greater period of time. The only difference is that the perpetrators of these crimes are on the “winning” side of their conflicts and plans of domination and therefore still have influence over the narrative with regards to how that history is remembered.
The only difference between people like Hitler and Andrew Jackson is that Andrew Jackson is still memorialized and printed on US currency.
what’s maoist standard english for Germany?
GermaNazi
Republikkk Of ₰ermany, maybe.
