What if your culture was the inspiration for the nazis?
History furnishes us with innumerable instances that prove this law. It shows, with a startling clarity, that whenever Aryans have mingled their blood with that of an inferior race the result has been the downfall of the people who were the standard-bearers of a higher culture. In North America, where the population is prevalently Teutonic, and where those elements intermingled with the inferior race only to a very small degree, we have a quality of mankind and a civilization which are different from those of Central and South America. In these latter countries the immigrants–who mainly belonged to the Latin races–mated with the aborigines, sometimes to a very large extent indeed. In this case we have a clear and decisive example of the effect produced by the mixture of races. But in North America the Teutonic element, which has kept its racial stock pure and did not mix it with any other racial stock, has come to dominate the American Continent and will remain master of it as long as that element does not fall a victim to the habit of adulterating its blood.

Jim Crow was Hitler’s inspiration tor the Nuremberg laws.
Black GIs then came back from liberating Europe.
To by lynched from trees for being ‘Uppity’.
This is the heritage they are proud of:
“I’m socially liberal but financially
naziconservative”Actually we called them Mitläufer (going along with the dominant party in fear of punishment)… but they sure weren’t any better than Nazis.
I dont really fault someone for joining a party bcz they don’t want to be shot and drug through the dirt.
I’ve never seen or heard anyone use drug as the past tense of drag in my long-legged life.
Drig, Drag, Drug
Actually you have, right before you wrote that comment.
They are at fault. If everyone that didn’t refuse join because of such reasons didn’t join there would be no one to do the shotting and the dragging.
Boy wait until you hear about forced religious conversions.
Ah yes removing nuance, always a win.
This list is conveniently leaving out the motive of ‘being threatened’, because motives do sometimes matter.
The proper term is “nazi-collaborateur”.
And no I am of course not condoning any violence.
Fuck off, nazi
Thank you for your nuanced reply and your openness for semantics discussion.
Provocative question: Do you think then that the US should’ve strangled half the German population instead of just a dozen at the Nuremberg Trials because a Nazi is a Nazi?
No, we strangled the ones in charge and then forced the remainder to literally pay while their country was occupied. A culture of anti-nazism was forced upon the Germans with law.
Growth is important for everyone. MAGA can still bend the knee and atone for their bigotry.
God, I wish I could up vote this more than once. I want it smeared all over the front page of every website in America. I want everyone in the country to see the true feelings of leftists.
They want you dead. They want you harmed. They LOVE violence against people that have different opinions. They salivate at the idea of camps (as long as it’s for people they don’t like).
All they have to do is convince themselves that they are “Nazis”! Then, all bets are off. Just dehumanize anyone you don’t like, then you can wish death on them and their families. Fuck em, right? They deserve it!
Sounds like a bunch of shitty historians.
Of course the motives matter, most of all for a good historian. Those who wish to reconstruct the past shall not be deterred from their goal just because “nobody cares anymore”. Fidelity to an accurate representation of the past is the only acceptable rendition of history, otherwise why even bother.
