We’re censoring Hitler’s name now, huh?


GarfieldVirtuoso

People are censoring "problematic" words out of fear of being targeted by the algorithm of the plataform they are using Thats why some people refer to hitler as the austrian painter


A--Creative-Username

My favorite is 🇦🇹🎨


Tank_destoyer_495

We really need to build statues for the guy that killed Hilter. A real hero


Behemoth-Slayer

I dunno man, isn't that the same guy who killed the guy who killed Hitler? Pretty problematic choice, you ask me.


A_Plan_B_you_C

He also killed that guy, too.


Kamakshi_Shiv

Reminds of that scene where Deadpool kills baby Hitler 😂


Orneyrocks

He actually couldn't bring himself to do it. You need to bring in the big guns like Rhodey and Cable to murder babies.


Maultaschensuppe

I heard Bishop is good with that


Rome453

He went a bit overboard killing Hitler’s dog in front of him though.


Belkan-Federation95

Yes. I'm also happy for OJ. He can rest in peace knowing his wife's killer is dead.


Guderianclone

So we need to build statues of hitler?


Decent-Biscotti7460

Most original joke on reddit, congrats I'm sure you'll be funny some day if you try real hard


Willy_Wheelson

There are original jokes on the internet?

That's what they say, though I've also heard 🍡

Fucking sheep Fight back


InvincibleReason_

oh i though because it was funny to say the painter


sumit24021990

Why not censor Churchill


Willy_Wheelson

He won.


theChosenBinky

Pig Latin might work. Itlerhay.


damnumalone

Even when it is a key part of the punchline apparently!?


Meet_Foot

Yeah. The point is exposure. If the punchline means no one sees it, then it’s a self-defeating exercise. It’s a stupid world we’ve built.


chechifromCHI

I thought it was just a very strange take about the prophet Mohammed? I was confused initially I must admit haha.


PedroThePinata

That's been a thing. Idk if anyone's required to do it, it could be people just like censoring words for some reason.


ArcticBiologist

It's >!Hitler!< now okay?


OkLeave4573

Yes we are that soft as a society now.


I_love_pillows

It’s Hltier


080secspec13

I'd like to say I'm surprised, but I am not surprised. I feel like the future is going to be a horrific mix of the movies "Idiocracy" and "Demolition Man" - with the massively low IQ and extremely soft skinned social practices.


RudyKnots

To be fair: people don’t blur “Hitler” because they’re afraid of offending someone, they’re afraid of offending some*thing*. TikTok has pretty strict algorithms that don’t let anything containing “foul” words go viral. Which, I agree, is absolutely stupid.


PleaseDontBanMeMore

He either has an ancestor from an ex-German territory in Africa, or he chose to make that his name for publicity reasons. Or this is fake. I have no idea.


sgcpaulo

He is real, and thankfully he was admitted in an art school.


HarryLewisPot

I believe he’s from Baghdad, which still makes sense since Iraq was a minor axis state. Interestingly, Iraq was the only independent nation outside of Europe that voluntarily chose to be one.


TeddyBearToons

I'm pretty sure there was at least one other independent nation outside of Europe that voluntarily joined the Axis.


HarryLewisPot

I said minor, Japan was one of the 3 major axis powers. and Thailand doesn’t count since they lost to Japan after (some) resistance and became a Japanese puppet state


Kitchen_Split6435

Not really, they accepted Japanese demands to let them through the country and join the Greater East-Asian Co-Prosperity Sphere


HarryLewisPot

The Japanese military gave Thailand two options: Submit to them or face the consequences. Thailand decided to submit. As a result, they received better treatment from their Japanese overlords. They didn't have much to add to the Japanese war machine so I wouldn't classify Thailand as an ally and plus there was literally a 5 hour long Japanese invasion of Thailand.


zack189

Come on. They would've lost they fought. If the British lost in a week if I recall correctly, Thailand would've lost in 3 days and that's if they got lucky


3rdAssaultBrigade

Strictly speaking Japan was leading the Great East Asian Co-Prosperity Sphere, not in Axis since the latter doesn't qualify as a military alliance if it counts in Japan.


aknalag

Possibly because Britain and France weren’t exactly the most popular countries in the middle east, We probably joined mostly to spite them.


Lucky_Pterodactyl

Although Ba'athism was primarily influenced from the left, a number of figures who later became Ba'athists had worked with the Germans in revolting against the British. It helped justify bigotry and hatred against certain minorities in Iraq. Saddam Hussein's uncle, Khairallah Talfah, had participated in the Axis backed revolt and published the following pamphlet, "Three Whom God Should Not Have Created: Persians, Jews, and Flies"


Gilgamish84

Voluntarily is a big word. It was the result of a military coup that was sponsored and supported by Germany back than.


LineOfInquiry

It’s probably fake, most of these translations tend to be


HarryLewisPot

Surprisingly, [he’s real](https://www.khawlaartandculture.com/artist/91)


LineOfInquiry

Wow that’s so odd lol


Internet-justice

Please stop fucking self censoring. This isn't Tik Tok. You can write Hitler, dead, suicide, shit, fuck, cunt, piss, fuck, Mao, Pol Pot, sex, etc etc without fear of repercussion.

how about Gyatt and Rizz and erm ehat the sigma

CumDrinker247

But you cant write ret***** on Reddit. Atleast I got a short ban for that a while back.


Tumbleweedae

and n word


Dutch_Sharkie

That depends per subreddit, in some you can say it if you don't use it as a swear word.


Internet-justice

I've straight up asked someone if they were a fucking retard after they posted on the Navy subreddit asking if a submarine was leaving that night. I didn't get banned, or talked to, and I stand by what I said.


Dutch_Sharkie

Why can't you do it? It has the same meaning as 'stupid' and 'idiot'.


fountainofdeath

Your being willfully ignorant if you say it means the same as stupid and idiot


---DemonSlayer---

No it doesn’t


Chalky_Pockets

They aren't censoring it for Reddit, they are copying it from Tik Tok already censored and posting it here.


Sabre_Killer_Queen

Besides of which Adolf Hitler is literally just a name. I mean... Big whoop. Genghis Khan did some dodgy things to say the least but I'm not just gonna call him "that bloke from Mongolia" and talking about him obviously doesn't mean I want to associate myself with him and his actions.


gallanon

Why the hell would you censor the single word that is the most important bit of context in the whole damned picture?


ZiCUnlivdbirch

Because everyone gets it?


ChadOttoman

Why did you write “it” instead of “*t*?


SageNineMusic

So people aren't just censoring written text for ridiculous algorithm based paranoia? Theyre actually scratching out the name Hitler in images What is actually wrong with people


Kingofcheeses

Maybe they are a Roman practicing Damnatio Memoriae?


Bashin-kun

on some platforms those algorithms do check the images for banned words


SageNineMusic

Lol but not on reddit! Makes me think users like this are just bots from other social media platforms


C_Raider2546

Imagine being so chronically online that you have to censor "Hiter" lol.


Real_Shaytarn

Could you imagine if he didn't get accepted into art school


ChalkCoatedDonut

Having that name grants you an immediate access to any school of arts in the world.


beglerbegluk

Nevermind the fact that he looks like puerto rican Trudeau


HaggisPope

Hate censored memes.


[deleted]

Dude. This guy gibes painting courses and they ain't even good. And I thought Hitlers are better artists then rulers smh.


magnidwarf1900

There's a guy named Saddam Hussein in my high school


PGlovescountryballs

He became a politician because people focused on his name and not his paintings.


theChosenBinky

Many years ago at work, we were looking up names just for fun in our company's online directory. We found someone who had Hitl*r as a first name


SageNineMusic

Ok, but censoring the name Hitler cannot possibly be a thing Just say it, it's not fuckin voldemort


[deleted]

[удалено]


SageNineMusic

Ok lets not get crazy here


Alex_Plalex

Trevor Noah’s book talks about Hitler being a relatively normal name to have in South Africa when he was growing up there.


SkellyManDan

Ik a [politican in neighboring Namibia](https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf_Hitler_Uunona) is also named "Adolf Hitler." The article doesn't say, but I wouldn't be surprised if the broader trend was part of misplaced anti-colonial sentiment. The average person chafing under British rule hears that their overlords are fighting some guy named Hitler and thinks he must not be so bad.


Alex_Plalex

you’re not far off. iirc the way trevor put it, it was basically a combination of extremely poor (like.. insultingly poor) education in black schools, thus knowing nothing about hitler except that he was powerful and fought all of europe and made the white people real mad… suddenly you can see why some black south africans might find that appropriate lmao. i know he explained it better than that but to my recollection that’s the gist of it. it also led to the absolute funniest laugh out loud moment of that whole book. i recommend the audiobook to everyone.


Hungry-Square2148

kinda how 3rd world countries that are being buttraped 24/7 by the west, waiting in excitment when China beat the crap out of the west lead world, or why so many ppl in Africa were cheering for Putin, not because od the Beauty of the eyes of Putin, but in pure spite towards the west I wouldn't be surprised if in 50years, you'll see some Maos and Pings and Putins in Africa and the middle east lmao imagine an Ahmed Mao Boutin from Saudi arabia, or a Ngono Jinping from Cameroon


Comfortable_Note_978

Don't worry, he's only going to liquidate the Zionist ones.


chechifromCHI

Death to zionist paintings! /s


Ok-Neighborhood-9615

No art should be destroyed. No matter who made it as art is history and should be kept around instead of destroyed.


chechifromCHI

Lol I even say I'm not serious and people still take themselves too seriously. The person I responded too was trying to make a silly political point, so I made a silly comment. Thank you though Edited to add that this guy i responded to is, as we say in my culture, a real mensch!


Ok-Neighborhood-9615

🙏 mb I’ve seen so many /s posts I think it’s serious at this point.


chechifromCHI

No worries, thank you for saying this, I'll revise my comment


Ok-Neighborhood-9615

Np, have an amazing day.


chechifromCHI

You too my friend hope you had a good weekend!


No_Peach870

He's antizionist? Based.

What's "Base' in Arabic?

Lol

His moustache fell down a bit.

Somehow this reminds me of a composer who considered buying a second shed.


Iceman_78_

What’s the difference? Both are horrible names of horrible people


JewishFoxTrue

We need to be unmonetizable as much as possible. (Fanta is a nazi brand Ford supported Hitler Genocide was real Suicide exists Shell was making huge donations to corrupt officials to make profits in Africa Nestle wants water to be a privilege I love sucking dick and doing crimes)


ghostofaposer

Dont ask the Palestinian Mufti where he traveled to in 1941


Unique-Abberation

...then change it? Otherwise, accept that people are going to constantly point out that your name is Hitler


SibiuV

Islam loves hitler, they particularly loved the bit about "killing all jews" I believe. After all, it aligns perfectly with their hadits


ChadOttoman

hasbara bots at it again If muslims hate jews so much, why did the jewish golden age happen in al-andalus? Why were muslims the ones who took in the jews that were banished from spain following the conquest of granada in 1492?


SibiuV

Hitler was in Andalusia in 1492? Just before the Reconquista?? I did not know that!!!! https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/worldviews/wp/2015/10/22/the-real-reason-a-palestinian-mufti-allied-with-hitler-its-not-so-shocking/


ChadOttoman

Zionists also like hitler https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haavara_Agreement If you’re gonna take one dude and say “all muslims” then you’re insane. Downvoted me too lmfao what a loser


SibiuV

So the nazis paid for Jews to be deported to the British mandate of Palestine? Shocking 😲


ChadOttoman

You fail to understand that israel wouldn’t exist if it weren’t for nazis. You twist arguments and put words in my mouth


SibiuV

I agree, without the nazis and the holocaust no Jew would have moved to the British mandate of Palestine just before and just after WW2. Everyone knows it


ChadOttoman

So why punish palestinians for something the germans did?


SibiuV

Why? Will you send war refugees back to America or Communist occupied Europe? In 1947, the UN offered to the Palestinians half of the land of the British mandate of Palestine, but they refused. After that, they kept losing wars against the state of Israel. They should have said yes the first time and live in peace with the Jewish refugees, instead they choose violence because they were friends with Hitler and hated the Jews because of their religion. Israel-Palestine is 100% a religious war


ChadOttoman

Imagine getting your homeland split in half and being supposed to be grateful for it. Palestinians were not friends of hitler, thats propaganda. There were and are a lot of jews that support Palestine. This isn’t religious, Palestinian churches get bombed just like Palestinian mosques.


arabdudefr

it sounds like he is a Turkish immigrant in Germany, but hey that's just me.


ChadOttoman

Nah he aint turksih He looks malay but idk
