This is a Dengist community in favor of Bashar al-Assad with no information that can lead to the arrest of Hillary Clinton, our fellow liberal and queen. This community is not ironic. We are Marxists-Leninists.

We have a Matrix homeserver and a Matrix space. See this thread for more information.
Rules:
- This community is explicitly pro-AES (China, Cuba, the DPRK, Laos and Vietnam)
- No ableism, racism, misogyny, transphobia, etc.
- No pro-imperialists, liberals or electoralists
- No dogmatism/idealism (Trotskyism, Gonzaloism, Hoxhaism, anarchism, etc.)
- Reactionary or ultra-leftist cringe posts belong in /c/shitreactionariessay or /c/shitultrassay respectively

Hm, that first link seems to be from the Great Teacher Onizuka manga, instead of Evangelion, though the Seele symbol is apparently a reference.
Evangelion takes a lot of references and imagery from religion, from Christianity to Judaism what with stuff like angels, the Dead Sea Scrolls, Adam and Lilith, etc, but I honestly think it's a reach to directly connect it to Nazism and antisemitism.
Japan was on the side of the Nazis during WWII and never actually apologized for their atrocities, but would that have shown up so blatantly in their media? I'm not sure.
The official media of her in Nazi uniform when she was born in the 21st century is really baffling to me.
Many people in Japan have no idea who Hitler even was. Or at most they know him as “the guy who did something bad once but I don’t know what exactly”.
WW2 is a very suppressed topic in Japan.
Also Onizuka was worked on by several members who also worked on the Neon Genesis team.
