(CW: Racism) Turanist comm on db0 (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

For those who are not clued into the intricacies of turkish (ethno-)nationalism, turanism is kind of like the odin-flavored racism in germany. They hate arabs so much they reject Islam (which is otherwise pretty core to turkish nationalism) because it's an "arab religion". It's in a (not so coincidentally) similar vein to the odin-racists hating jews so much that they reject christianity due to it being a "semitic religion". I could get into it more if needed but if you also browse the articles about the grey wolves (why are they called that 🤔) it should be fairly clear why that comm is a fascist op that is now being spread on lemmy

In short, no. They're using links from reddit and saying that somehow means that this community is a fascist op due to it. They say that its too much effort to look for it in the community yet an hour later posted a slew of shit from reddit. This is now multiple weeks of a user having a post on /0 making a pretty hostile claim about ethnic groups using anecdotal evidence and it hasn't been removed. They just keep saying "I've been busy" and "I'll come up with something" followed by a slew of reddit nonsense.

Not to mention that their comments seem to be painting the groups as monolithic and all sharing a uniquely 'aryan' goal, as they keep suggesting, but that in and of itself is xenophobic as hell. Like seriously...

I'm sorry but what the fuck.

Lol yeah, I know what you are saying, but it's still additional context I guess. See https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/75434630/28389092 for my thoughts, but the tldr is that no, I don't consider the community or the mod to be racist based on any "evidence" provided so far.
