Are you that same person from lemmygrad that posted the news article from 25-years ago?

There are better sources you could have linked to than a bias tabloid with “Mixed” reporting accuracy.

https://globalnews.ca/news/9983103/anthony-rota-ukraine-nazi-unit-apology/ Global has a slightly left-center bias with “High” reporting accuracy.

“The Speaker is responsible for this chamber. He invited him of his own accord and he made the decision himself to recognize him. Neither the government of Canada nor the delegation of Ukraine had any knowledge of this.”

While I would expect some basic level of competence in being able to background check someone, it isn’t reasonable to assume that people automatically know the background of someone they’ve most likely never heard of before.

Also, going by Rule 4, your post title does not match the Article’s title, even viewing your article from Archive.org shows that the title you gave this post never matched the title of your linked article.

You wanna check the screenshots I provided where I searched for both “Nazi” and “Canada” in World News and could not any posts about the Canadian Parliament incident? Even this half-assed post fails to provide any actual details concerning the incident.

It’s pretty easy to mess with people pushing an agenda when they have no argument to begin with. You’re just blatantly here to fight with people while pretending to be concerned about Nazis in Canada, your previous comments to other people here make that obvious.

Great, why wasn’t this the original post to begin with? Go and post it as a top-level comment so people don’t need to dig into a comment chain for context or edit your post to have that link in the body of the post.

This is what shows up when searching World News for “Nazi” while sorted by New. There are no posts referencing Canada at all in any of the search results within the last 2 months. There is no context here in this community to make your post even remotely relevant.

Your post is also the only one mentioning “Nazis” when searching World News for “Canada” while sorted by new. There are not a “dozen other threads” covering the topic, there isn’t even one thread mentioning it.

The article you posted belongs in a History community as it is an old article referencing an event which occurred in the 1950s; it isn’t news. If you wanted to make a post about Canadian Parliament giving a standing ovation to a Nazi, then the article you just replied to me with should have been the original post to begin with because that is current news.

The rules in the sidebar should be enough to tell you that your post is too old to be here. You aren’t even discussing the incident, only using it as an excuse to defend posting outdated news, and trying to attack other users when you don’t even understand why your original post is bad to begin with.

plead ignorance as the presence of Nazis in Canada

If you’re going to say that there are Nazis in Canada, at least use an article written within the last 5 years.

You couldn’t even be bothered to provide a link to an article citing incident you’re referring to in your post, as a top-level comment or even as a child-comment replying to anyone saying your 25-year-old article is too old to be posted here. You haven’t provided the context as to why the article in your post is relevant to anything, and anyone reading through that article would still have no knowledge about ‘Canadian parliament giving a standing ovation’.

I’m also unsure why you thought posting a 25-year-old article would be considered relevant news when it makes no mention of an incident happening within the last week.

Weird to link to a 25 year old article about Nazis in Canada, when we have the recent example from the trucker “protest”.

You seem more interested in trying to push that a certain nationality are Nazis though, and not that Canada currently has a group of people which do support Nazi ideology.

There are lots of reasons for for wanting to delete comments without wanting to delete any replies.

For example in this comment, I bring up the use of macros as a solution to fix a mouse issue. If someone brought up a point that this software was against the games TOS, I would want my comment removed as fast as possible because I view my comment as potentially harmful (and from context, it would have been obvious what the deleted comment would have contained). If there were other replies giving advice on how to solder (one of the other solutions I give), I would want those replies to remain visible to anyone else viewing the post. Some people, like me, might not have been aware that deleting a comment would remove all other replies, I’ve never seen a warning message that this would happen when deleting something.

Deleting the comment on mobile instead of editing out bad information is also a lot more likely because it’s a “one button fix”, and a lot more convenient than trying to edit the post (some apps don’t render markdown correctly, and may not display strikethrough text). With the above example, quicky deleting my comment would have been an appropriate way to remove harmful advice, and a reply warning about the use of macros and advice on how to solder would still be helpful without the context of the original comment they were replying to.
