It would be hilarious if Ye was the current era's Hitler existing the same time as Trump, the current era's Nero.
First, a spelling mistake: "Hitlerious" is the correct spelling in this situation.
Second, Ye isn't the new Hitler, Musk already is. Ye wants to be, but Musk acts like one.
I see we're getting into the who's who debate in this thread. One could argue that Musk is Goebbels, the propagandist.
Nobody can be Göring because he was known for hiring highly effective people, the lack of which just may be how we survive.
Then there's Himmler who took over the SS and orchestrated the Holocaust, that's who Musk wants to be. I have hope he'll fail like with his companies.
I still see Trump as Hitler because he's the narcissist with the unbelievable charisma who's got the small-minded people behind him, which makes the rest of the fascist agenda possible.
Kanye is just a hanger-on, trying to get attention
And the same era as Musk, the current era's Caligula.
when do honorary degrees ever matter
the reference is to adolph hitler being kicked out of art school
I get it, just wanted to voice my opinion ;)
When the university wants to brag
Ronald Reagan?Donald Trump? The actor!?
For anyone wondering why it took them so long to rescind the degree, it happened in December 2022.
Honestly, if a Black US man convinced the racist Nazis in his country to go about killing in his name, that would absolutely impressive. They'd have to turn off even more parts of their brain to be controlled by a black man and at the same time hate and love him.
A similar case is when a racist meets a black cop or soldier. They call them one of the good ones.
One of fave scenes in Men with Guns is when they say "all you have to make a native think he is white is give him a gun and a uniform"
No it wouldn't, he would be the butt of that joke, not controlling anyone
This post is like 2 years old. How is it this grainy???
Some Lemmy instances have very low file size cutoffs for image uploads. I feel that the natural loss of pixels that happens everywhere over time is acellerated here.
I'm more inclined to think it was shared, reshared, and reencoded to hell and back.
Also,
there's one potato that all social media sites pass around to filter uploads
If you stick two ends of a wire in a potato it can process jpeg.
What does Mos Def think of all this?
Where is Ja?!
what the hell is an honorary degree
It's a degree awarded by institutions to outstanding figures for achievements in a certain field.
Degree given to someone who wasn't a student. These are given all the time to singers, actors, writers etc.
Denzel Washington, for example, has honorary doctorate from the University of Pennsylvania.
