Okay so you are claiming that there is proof but we would have to go to Berlin to find proof? In the age where internet archives exist?

If neither of us are willing to physically go there than why did you cite it as a source to support your claims?

Cool than you'd be able to share things from the archives that meet those specified criterion?

Please link me to sources then.

"Whataboutism" being considered a logical fallacy was made up by an Irish Unionist (as in supporting Ireland being a British colony) because he didn't like it when people responded to "the irish resistance is violent" with "the British are magnitudes more violent and their violence wouldn't stop if the violent resistance stopped"

Consider understanding the historical context of a line of argumentation before using it.

Wow, that sounds horrible, I bet there were a lot of prosecutions of the people who carried those things out once the government reunified!

Oh, and the physical evidence and documentation of those torture dungeons after the wall fell, there must be so much evidence of all the horrors committed!

And all the violence the evil communist government must have done to keep itself in power and prevent reunification must have been really evident, I bet we can find newspaper clippings and even video on the widespread violence that happened in an effort to hold on to power.

Wait, I'm getting reports that none of those things actually happened, fuck. It would have lined up so nicely with the narrative taught to me by American education and popular media, that's a real bummer.

As labor is further socialized (basically centralizing and then running itself without capitalist intervention) you end up having labor done by men and women and women still being responsible for more domestic duties which are labor but not considered labor(because those being done for free subsidizes capitalist profit) the solution though isn't to keep women in the household, it is to do socialism, where domestic labor can be socialized (it isn't under capitalism because why would you socialize labor you're already getting for free?)

Yeah, and no fault divorce keeps the workforce happier and reduces domestic violence (meaning less injured and killed workers), abortion on demand makes it easier for people to continue working, and socializing former domestic labor improves the efficiency of that work and frees up labor for leisure or other labor, but those things are still good and part of the socialist feminist project.

There was some integration (as second class citizens) and some displacement.

Yes they straight up have displaced Jewish Palestinians.
