Nina spitting truths as always. She’s on fire recently, so follow her if you’re not doing so already.

To be clear; everyone working in my government, particularly after today, is a Nazi, or someone who works for Nazis. Do you know what we call people who worked for the Nazis, in the Nazi government? Yes, that is correct, Nazis.

So Machado is certainly not gonna feel lonely on the list of people on my TV who are definitely Nazis.

Oh, was that too harsh? Are you feeling bad for the good career civil servants, working for the literal fucking Nazis, who I have just impuned? Cool, let’s refer back to that part where I said I was surrounded by people who openly recognize that this is fascism, and ABSO-FUCKING-LUTELY refuse to accept what that actually means.

We call people, who worked for the Nazi Party, in the Nazi government, Nazis. Nobody says “the Nazi government and the career civil servants who hated them but stayed.”

“They’ll just find someone else.”

Then let them. “I took the job at the concentration camp because I was sure Hitler would find someone else” was not a good defense in court last time, and it won’t be this time either.

    Few if any useful artillery shells were produced at the plant. When officials from the Armaments Ministry questioned the factory’s low output, Schindler bought finished goods on the black market and resold them as his own.[71]

    Also interesting to note:

    Several thousand not deemed fit for work were sent to extermination camps and murdered; hundreds more were murdered on the streets by the Nazis as they cleared out the ghetto. Aware of the plans because of his Wehrmacht contacts, Schindler had his workers stay at the factory overnight to protect them from harm.[49] He witnessed the ghetto’s liquidation and was appalled. From that point, says Schindlerjude Sol Urbach, Schindler “changed his mind about the Nazis. He decided to get out and to save as many Jews as he could.”[50]

    He was member of the NSDAP and a spy for the Wehrmacht. So he literally was a Nazi. Only when he directly witnessed their mass murder he changed his opinion.

      Glad he ended up working on the right side, either way. It goes to show that there are people on the inside that eventually choose to do right for the right reason, and not just to try and save themselves at the last minute.

        And shows that there are (probably a lot of) opportunistic people that just follow the majority or what benefits them, but doesn’t mean there is no red line for them.
