Interesting Book

I have been reading "The Thrid Reich in the Ivory Tower" by Stephen Norwood. It is a well researched book about the relationship between Ameriocan universities and the German NSDAP (NAZI's) in the thirties. It is especially interesting in light of recent events.

I know Harvard embraced the Nazis.

Universities will swoon over anyone who gives them money.

And during WW2 the American colleges and universities were infiltrated by homosexuals and communists who were unfit for duty in the armed forces.

NSDAP = Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei. (National Socialist German Workers' Party).

The term β€˜Nazi’ is an abbreviation of Nationalsozialist (National Socialist).

They loved the Nazis until the Nazis attacked their even more beloved Soviet Union. That is when they really lost their minds.

Sadly universities are full of people who firmly believe they should be in charge of things. Because they are so smart and all. Better then those little people. Who need to be firmly led in the direction that is good for them. And punished when they do not worship and obey.

This is nothing new.
