Holocaust Survivor Rebuffs so called 'American Concentration Camps'

in #informationwar6 years ago (edited)

David Tuck is a Polish Jew who survived the Holocaust, IBM tattoo and all. In this video, he speaks out against the notion that America is running concentration camps. In 1939 he was forced by the Nazis into a ghetto where he spent five years of his life as he was rotated through various facilities.

David was stripped of his identity and dignity when he was assigned the #141631 and treated like livestock. His family was one of eighteen Jewish families from his hometown. Stealing was rampant in the camps because everyone yearned to survive, food was scarce. Simple things like waking up the next morning became an uncertain prospect.

Mr. Tuck explains that at one point the amount of dead in the camp outnumbered those who were still living. When he heard the rumors that the camp was to be liberated by Americans, he did not believe it to be true.

David makes clear his disgust when people compare detention shelters which are designed to house illegal aliens, with concentration camps, and the fact that some people will flagrantly bandy about the term Nazi sickens him.

Mr. Tuck stresses the fact that Americans shouldn’t be taking freedom for granted, and that there is no country freer. He indicates that if people want to migrate to America, they ought to do so lawfully and by means of the proper channels.

Finally, he stresses if you don’t like the President, that after four years you've got the option to make a change via the ballot box. His advice is that people should live good lives and accept that America is the best country. He thinks those who don’t accept this, should leave of their own volition.

I thought his story was interesting to learn about and towards the end, I couldn’t help but think that all these Social Justice Warriors who love the word Nazi and concentration camp. Well, are they culturally appropriating unique traumas that only a few groups had to endure during Hitler’s reign?

Here’s a list of groups that Hitler targeted and persecuted: Gypsies, political dissidents, the disabled, Soviet POWs, Poles, Jehovah’s Witnesses, black Germans, and Gay people. That does not mean that people alive today who fall into those groups were victims of Hitler unless they are WWII survivors and experienced these abuses first hand.

I would agree that the biggest difference, and one impossible to overlook, is that the people in the WW2 era were rounded up against their will by no fault of their own by the point of a gun and the heel of a boot. The people claiming victim status lately came here under their own volition and can leave when they are dkne serving a predetermined sentance. They are not being rounded up, they are being caught breaking the law, they are not being worked to death in a quarry or factory, they are getting good meals and watching satelite TV in an airconditioned facility. I call bullshit on these liars and whiners in todays debate.

Dont forget in their own nation. This all occured within their own nation.

Mostly, the guy in this video was from Poland.

My wife is a Pole. She immigrated to the USA legally. We have visited the camps at Auschwitz. Most Poles have a keen sense of awareness about this history. My mother-in-law lived it as her family escaped the Nazi backed Ukrainian Nationalist genocide of Poles along that border. This whole modern issue of immigration is for the most part political theater. As a legal immigrant, she has little tolerance for this. She worked hard to be here through proper channels. The laws are there and should be enforced. It is almost futile to debate the topic because the narrative is being controlled so much so that people don't realize they have no idea what they are talking about. Divide and rule. Wake up people.

I really respect people who worked hard and did the right things to join in with a new nation. It shows repect and a willingness to be on the same team so to speak. Sneaking in unlawfully and then playing on the emotions of the community by making these camp comparisons probably makes your spouse really angry and that is ok. You guys have support out here for sure.
