The work camps in Nazi Germany had the explicit goal, discussed in letters of the people running them, of bringing the interned to their “natural end”, i.e. work them to death, and many people were indeed killed this way.
“ARBEIT MACHT FREI” was actually German for “SMOKING IS BAD FOR YOU.”
The Nazis ending racism by genociding every other race has got to be the most brain melting thing I’ve ever read. I gotta go lay down.
Nazism, like all forms of fascism, falls apart without an enemy. Even if they managed to kill all the Jews and Slavs, people would still be murdered on the suspicion of being Jews and Slavs for as long as Nazis are in power.
i’ve long held that if fascists couldn’t designate a racial or national enemy, they’d play up the distinction between men and women as their primary struggle. And if they couldn’t do that they’d go after certain age groups. They’d find something.
i think that’s part of the reason fascists in America have latched so heavily onto being anti-LGBTQ. They’re slowly realizing that open racism is broadly unpopular, so they’re flailing about trying to coherently designate a different enemy. What they fail to realize is unspoken racism is perfectly permitted in America, but they can’t help themselves. They have to say the quiet part.
or theyd start massacring people who dont have the right eye color or too many freckles or slightly too large noses or something
the process of the people being killed also was pretty quick
Have this fucker never watch a movie about the holocaust in their life???
hitlers killings of non-aryans would have eventually resulted in racism ending
???
This person should be shoot dead
hitlers killings of non-aryans would have eventually resulted in racism ending
melting down from that take
Yeah that’s definitely one way to end racism, y’know ending all other races
They have such a baby-brained understanding of fascism. Like fascists will find another thing to discriminate against because they need that to justify their inability to function and a target to rally against
this is like probably what 30% of public high school students in the US learn in their history class from whatever athletics coach they get to teach this class.
i used to think they were just skimping on paying a history teacher, but now I think they choose the coach because they’re most likely to be reactionary
Mine were almost all wholesome veterans or spouses of veterans.
making people work till theyre dead
citation needed for Stalin, but slave labor without regard for deaths was a documented part of the Nazi war machine
Stalin made people work until they were well into their mid-60s, which was a real tragedy given that life expectancy in pre-Soviet Russia was the early-30s. Dude forced you to work two full lifetimes! That’s where Communism gets you.
Now one negative aspect ofcourse was the extermination of people apart of the LGBT community
I can excuse genocidal anti Semitism, racism, and antiziganism, but I draw the line at genocidal homophobia
Is if the Nazis wouldn’t have turned on each other after the genocide of undesirables was completed.
One of the dangerous things about fascism that people seem to not understand is that it never ends. They have to have an enemy to consume because they can create nothing themselves. It is ultimately a self harming ideology. A species chewing its own legs off because it finds them too unsightly.
this is either evidence of the reincarnation Ernst Röhm or a terrifying glimpse into the historically illiterate mind logic of your typical western liberal
