    Would make a meme about pissing on the grave of someone that served in the Wehrmacht?

      What’s pissing on Wermacht graves got to do with modern, politically motivated Confederate statues and teaching about the Confederacy responsibly in a similar manner to the way we teach about the Nazis?

      I’m sorry to say that I think you got a little over-excited about your gotcha and blew your wad early.

        You should probably check the meme in the OP for context if you’re having trouble figuring out how pissing on a Wehrmacht grave is connected

            I don’t have a problem with what OP shared.

            You pointed out how we don’t glorify Nazis. I was simply wondering if you would make a meme about peeing on German graves the way that OP made a meme about peeing on Confederate graves.

            Im just trying to understand your position.

              I’m not big on making memes, so no.

              Do I think there’s equivalent moral culpability between the average vermacht and confederate soldier? Unsure - it’s a nuanced question I’m not well positioned to answer.

              Would I piss on either? Probably not. Rupert Murdoch is my priority on that front.
