It's true, the woke Left has hijacked the historical narrative. But just because the US isn't a one dimensional villain, doesn't mean that there aren't some uncomfortable paradoxes of history worth noting.

A key advisor who spent time taking notes about the South in particular, was Heinrich Krieger, an exchange student at the University of Arkansas...

Wait a second. I thought they took cues from the way ‘native Americans’ were treated. 🤔😂👍

What a load of crap! Right off the bat there was NEVER a law, that I know of, anywhere in the USA concerning Jewish ancestry. This was the #1 priority of Nazi race laws.

It was the Democrats that used eugenics to justify their efforts to string up as many blacks as they could, using Jim Crow. Hitler also used eugenics to call Jews as unfit genetically and a threat to the Master Race (Herrenrasse).

In addition to race laws, Planned Parenthood's genocidal campaign of abortion against blacks was an inspiration to the Nazis, as were the American sterilization laws mandating forced sterilization of those deemed "unfit" - often based on subjective prejudices about a person's 'fitness' to procreate.

This may make some people uncomfortable, but truth should always be valued above blind allegiance so that we learn from our mistakes.

Back off please. Next you'll be saying that President Trump "is Hitler".

Actually, after two recent HORRIFIC attacks on innocent young White girls on public transit,
I'd say that the old race laws would have prevented such recent horrors inflicted upon Iryna and Bethany.

It’s not surprising at all that the Nazis took lessons from Democrats in America. They also copied much of what the communists did in the Soviet Union. They’re very similar in ideology, and the Nazis were more left wing that today’s left will admit.

"It's true, the woke Left has hijacked the historical narrative."

We can win it back with a mass explosion of open source audio books; Everything prior to 1930 anyways.

With respect to the topic at hand, the Nazis also learned about Eugenics from the (U.S.)Progressives.(And some British) The Nazis also learned propaganda from the (U.S.)Progressives.

The history game versus the progressives is one we can infinitely win. I just fear most people around us are not interested in doing so.

They might have to be dragged kicking and screaming into the win.

Not every culture bothers to write down the bad stuff. And not every culture had a written language and hence a written history. So it’s easy to imagine that they were peaceful and innocent and we were uniquely rotten. But no, we write it all down good and bad, and pass judgment on ourselves.

Not everyone does that. It’s part of what makes us who we are.

Well the noted Abortionist Margret Sanger could fly into Berlin without asking permissions if that tells you where Planned Parenthood stood...

I don't believe this one bit. The Reichstag hand-stamped every law that Hitler wanted put in place. I doubt Hitler cared about U.S. race laws, seeing as the main topic of the Wannsee Conference was The Final Solution...how to get rid of all the Jews they cleared from the countries they took over.

A search of how many lawyers were at the Wannsee Conference came back with three. According to Wikipedia: "At the Wannsee Conference, held on January 20, 1942, there were 15 participants, including at least three lawyers: Adolf Eichmann, Wilhelm Stuckart, and Otto Hofmann. The conference was primarily focused on coordinating the logistics of the Holocaust."

Reinhard Hydrich called for the meeting to be held. He wasn't a lawyer. Adolf Eichmann, at his trial in Israel claimed that he wasn't a participant, but as secretary and Hydrich's primary Lieutenant in charge of deportations, he took the notes of the meeting.

According to the Jewish Virtual Library:

"Eichmann took minutes, thirty copies of which were evidently distributed among the participants and other interested parties in the following weeks. The only surviving copy, marked No. 16 out of 30, was found in March 1947 among German Foreign Office files by American War Crimes investigators. After that discovery, the minutes, or Wannsee Protocol, rapidly attained postwar notoriety."

The “Final Solution”: The Wannsee Protocol (January 20, 1942)

You are absolutely correct. But please Ping me when The Left fully accepts its responsibility for Germany's National Socialist's Party of Hitler's Death Camps, Stalin's/Communist Party's Gulags and Mao's extravaganza of death.

https://factsanddetails.com/china/cat2/sub6/item1081.html

Tens and tens of millions of people were brutally murdered under Socialist/Communist governments.

W need to never forget and never forgive. If we do, it will happen again.

The Democrats were and are the authors of hyper racist laws like the anti black laws of the south.

Wilson was the super genius villain of the anti black agenda.

Hadn’t eugenics swept the world by 1934? To say nothing of Maggie Sanger’s work.

Sticklers for rules that they were, I would not doubt that the Germans would look to American law to legitimize the codification of their own views on race. But they were no strangers to the concept of racial superiority from long before Jim Crow. They were the founders of phrenologyat the time of the American Revolution. They preceded Darwin’s work, and were ready to hit the ground running with the “social Darwinism” bastardization of his theories.

This is old news.

The famous Hitler biographer, John Toland, reported that Hiter drew inspiration from both American Indian reservations and British concentration camps in the Boer War.

Hitler also favorably compared America's race laws and attitudes (such as the One Drop Rule) to Latin America, where the Spanish Empire encouraged intermarriage with the natives. Hitler attributed North America's dominance over South America to the One Drop Raw, which he nevertheless regarded as too extreme.

The Nazis were taking notes from the American Birth Control League which later changed it’s name to Planned Parenthood.
