RE: Europe is turning into a Nazi Concentration Camp
it's hard to tell which one is scarier: being attacked by terrorists, or being enslaved by Nazis? I guess it's equally bad.
I think that in the minds of most Eropeans, the latter option is scarier because they look at their own history and they see that the number of people, killed by all kinds of terror attacks, in the entire history, is rediculously smaller than the number of people killed by their own governments in the 20th century alone.
I think most europeans arent even aware how many evil things happened just 75 years ago. They are comfortable with their "bread and circus", multimedia, and other entertainments, but they don't see the evil until it's right before them.
They know and they care because that was not 75 years ago but much closer to now. Remember that unril less than 30 years ago, half of Europe was under a communist regime, where you could not trust your own family not to snitch on you.
I guess that is why Eastern Europe is not buying the immigrant nonsense, they are seeing what happens in the west, they don't want to suffer again.
However they had no problem with joining the EU, which I still can't fathom why. They were basically tring to get as far away from the Soviets as possible, but now they are pressured between the tyrannical EU, and threats from Russia, and literally being on the frontline of a potential WW3 scenario.
Poland, Greece, you name it, they are under heavy stress right now from the EU. And basically you have Neo-Nazis marching in Greece right now
And the scary part is that if you read the comments, most people actually like it.
It was not governments that killed the Jews. It was people that killed people. You have to understand that or you can never end it.
And Hitlers start was eerily the same as Trump now. I shiver comparing them.
But you have to admit that without a government it would not have been possible to organize it. The first thing Hitler did was to take the guns away. And after that slowly pushing the tyranny between 1939 and 1945, escalating it as he was losing the war.
If it would have been just a few Nazi bandits doing evil things, they would have been put down fairly quickly by an armed populace.
The right to bear arms is really a necessary right to defend innocent people against tyrants.
Hitler and weapons: That is not really right.
The weapon control laws are predating Hitler, enacted in 1928-30. And nobody was forced to give away weapons (apart from psychological instable or criminals).
Of course after Hitler won the election in 1933, he was fast to take away weapons from Jews, making it Germany-wide from 1935 on.
1938 another law was passed that made it easier for people in the Nazi-Orgs to carry weapons - without the permissions every one else needed if he wanted to carry weapons in the open.
But the main point is not that "an armed populace" would have put them down. Why? Most of the populace was enthusiastic about Hitler. The weapon groups (Schützenvereine) were at the front, his biggest fans! He promised work, he promised to keep away a certain religious group, he promised to make Germany great again and to get back what was lost in the peace (Schandfrieden) of Versailles.
You can see why I shudder when looking at Trump, can't you?
(btw: Didn't he said he wanted to make it harder for muslims to get weapons? I thought I read that a bit ago.)
btw:
most important point from 2:00 on
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sportpalast_speech
Of course half of the people in the hall were there to MAKE the show, but yeah, a lot of people were that enthusiastic about total war.
It makes me vomit.
Hitler 33, first speech as chancellor:
About the re-rise of the German Nation (or, in modern words, Make Germany Great Again!)
through OWN work, OWN effort, OWN determination, OWN defiance, OWN tenacity
Allright but let's put things in perspective, the hardcore Nazis made up about 5-10% of the population, and at it's peak, the Nazis had ~40% support, the rest of them were either agnostic or were outright hostile but were too afraid to speak up.
Basically 60% of the population didn't like the Nazis. And that came after 1 huge economics crisis, and a decade of political turmoil.
The Nazis promised to give the jobs back and revived this rabid nationalism, which was a leftover of the Prussian militaristic state, so I guess the 30% out of the 40% were just basically nationalists.
And they didnt know about the holocaust, and the other atrocities. So the Nazis knew exactly how to manipulate the population, and they still only managed to get 10% "hardcore nazis" brainwashed, meanwhile the other supporters were just brainwashed nationalists from Prussia.
So this means that a large part of the population is not actively evil, but passively. They passively enabled the Nazis to take power by indirectly supporting them or not opposing them, but they had not participated in the atrocities.
And this is what happens today as well. How many people did oppose the EU? Most people were either oblivious, a small part of brainwashed new-age "we are one" freaks have supported it, while an even smaller part of the population who were informed, have opposed it.
But this time it's different. We have mass media, the internet to inform the stupid sheeps about the dangers of tyranny. There is no excuse now, since all information is public.
If humans fall again for tyranny, then they we are really a dumbass race who are really not fit for survival. And it will probably end in WW3 anyway, essentially making the entire race go extinct through nuclear war.
