One thing has always shocked me was how many people went along with it. From camp guards, to railroad engineers, to educated officers, there was at the very least a criminal and evil detachment employed by thousands of Germans. I never understood it..

Four of the most evil words spoken. “Survival of the fittest”.

I don’t understand, either. Somebody published a photo album of the Auschwitz death camp staff & guards and their wives, at a picnic or something. Smiling, content, enjoying the fresh air.

One would have expected grim looks with jaws set, “look, dammit, we’re just doing our rotten jobs in this cursed war, G-d help us.”

Nothing like that at all in those pics.

on an entirely different level, of course, if you look at our own government and how the Democrats have led us into this disaster that is here and now, you will understand how glib speech, convincing phrases, repetition, can lead an entire country astray. If you appear to be on my side, give me what I want, take from others to give to me, I will follow you wherever you lead....Germans then, Americans now.

If you want to understand Nazi rationalizations, simply look at Democrats. They wallow in the same hatreds and self justifying mendacity as the Nazis. The eugenic "scientific" explanations, the rejection of linear logic, the inability to offer non-emotional reasoning to problems, and the ridiculous claims of an alternate morality that gives them the right to murder all who might dare to oppose them...

I sort of hope The Great Leader actually sidesteps the election. We can then create a Final Solution for Liberal Treason.

It's not the least bit odd that, after 40 years of quietly tolerating their hatred, the concept of feeding all registered democrats into a Sobibor is almost attractive, if for no other reason than to short circuit their lust for ultimate power...

.
Aren’t you shocked how many of our congresscritters and political “leaders” seem to be oblivious of the spread of islam in the US and what the consequences of sharia law will be? What’s so different between islam and naziism?

Or is it perhaps that they value their jobs to the extent that they do not want to rock the boat today but expect their children to clean up the mess tomorrow?

I remember seeing an interview with an old German lady years ago.She talked about hearing the stories of what was happening to Jews throughout Germany and not being able to believe they were true.When it finally sunk in that it was true she said that the congregation in her church sang louder as the rail cars rattled past the back of the church on sundays,full of Jews headed for the gas chambers.
