From the list of *isms they sent it presumably also includes racism. We should not be making sweeping generalisations about the racism community, there are a lot of good people in it you know?

that is the point I think, hence the emphasis on “your”: they are implying that their labubu are protestant

If celebrating keeps morale high I don't see much harm in it. Sure, in a just world he would have gotten a trial, and sure, it won't change anything, but you gotta take what you can get.

I'm just finding ways to waste time. Unlikely that I'm ever gonna date a “muscle mommy”, I don't have much interest in dating anyone.

no, what the nazis said is that it was the communist party, not a lone communist:

Despite the fact that Marinus van der Lubbe claimed to have acted alone in the Reichstag fire, Hitler, after having obtained his emergency powers, announced that it was the start of a wider communist effort to take over Germany. Nazi Party newspapers then published this fabricated story.[19]

The timing makes sense if you consider that it was a reaction to fascists coming into power. With hindsight we know the nazis benefitted, but trying to burn shit down when fascists take power is not an unreasonable action. The main problem I have with the false flag narrative is a very conspiratorial notion, when there is a clear person who had good reason to do it. “See also: cui bono” applies just as much to, say, 9/11, or the assasination attempt on trump, or John Brown, whose actions incited the civil war. The nazis would not have needed a false flag. Anything happening whatsoever could have been used as a reason, and shit was pretty damn fucked so something was bound to happen. Take what comes after your wikipedia quote:

The consensus amongst historians is the Reichstag was set ablaze by Van der Lubbe;[4] some consider it to have been a part of a Nazi plot, a view Richard J. Evans labels a conspiracy theory.[5][6]

I agree with that. I want to make clear I am not trying to defend the nazi narrative here. They said that the communist party was behind it, not some random lone communist. I just think that it was a pretty sensible action when fascists get into power taken by someone who coould not have predicted the damage it would cause. I also believe that, if not for the reichtag fire. they would have found another excuse to take power.
