I don't think book-burnings are a good sign of things at all. I think they are a sign of potential trouble.
I certainly wouldn't burn any book----even "Mein Kampf." And I'm a Jew.
You know your history, Sly. You should know who used to do book-burnings all the time.
Facist did a lot of things, are we never allowed to do things facist did? Hitler was vegan and against smoking. So we shouldn’t hate vegans and all smoke right? Most our science and medical stuff came from nazis. NASA was nazi central and we’d never got to the moon without the nazis.
So no just cause people do something the facist did isn’t a sign of facism. This was a small group protesting a forced book nothing more.
Books are just any other object to me they aren’t special. I’ve burned Burke and I’ll do it again, I’ve thrown bunch a way too. Most people don’t care about books. They just another mass produced product to most of us.
You know they burn books thrown away or that don’t sell right?
Books are the past anyways made and sold less and less everything is going digital
German scientists who had been forced to join the SS in order to be used for top secret Nazi war projects got us to the moon.
The medical science gained from the Nazis came out of concentration camps where prisoners who were seen as less than human were used as test subjects by the Nazis. Not something most of us would brag about, even though the results have saved millions of lives.
They weren’t all forced and many chose to use slave labor for their projects. Why are you making excuses for nazis and human rights crimes.
We even later sent some of them back to face punishments for their crimes. It was simple we wanted Nazi tech so we hid their crimes and snuck them back to USA and gave them new identities. Anything to get leg up on the Russians.
Okay, true, but not all of them.
One always has a choice. I’d enter be shot then for example kill hundreds of people.
Quite a few Germans refused and were killed. They died for sacred Germany. They didn’t give up their honor and humanity to survive and make money.
Braun should have been tried and executed not put in charge of nasa
One of few men to be praised and shook hands with Hitler and US presidents.
I doubt any of those scientists knew labor from concentration camps would be worked to death prior to having been brought on board.
In fact, no Germans had been executed for refusing to be involved with concentration camps. They were just sent to other duties. Still, remaining German war criminals use that excuse.
Certainly there were many Germans who had died at the hands of the Nazis. Mostly for opposing Hitler (or even trying to assassinate him, like Stauffenberg, Rommel, Cannaris, and others), political prisoners, gays, Jews, the disabled, etc.
Germans who were sent to shoot Jews and refused were shot and thrown into the pits with the Jews. I got lectured on high school by a ww2 vet who saw the camps then spent his life researching and talking to witness and toured with a slideshow and preventions. He was highly paid. My teacher knew him and so got him to come in few times a year for her humanities class.
Just like they shot and killed those who retreated without orders. It was follow orders or die. They swore an oath to Hitler and the ss one you couldn’t back out of. Don’t belittle the ones who refused and died that’s not ok.
In hitlers Germany you followed orders or you died. Rommel and others found that out. The 6th army found that out. He even had his gfs sisters husband killed.
Bruan knew and didn’t care.
