MFW we’re drunkenly discussing US politics and neonazis and the Polish dude starts getting weirdly insistent about how many Jews his family saved during the war.

Sounds like he doesn’t want to be mistaken for a neonazi haha!
My fam and I had a big rant about US politics the other weekend when I saw them. My Opa was a lil boy in Nazi Germany and has some wild, wild anecdotes from that time. Crazy shit. He’s pissed AF the US is going down the same route. Nan is also pissed as well, we all are.
I was teased for being a Nazi when I was in PS and HS, because my surname always attracts questions. Kids are kids, but because of Opa and my experiences, and history, I FUCKING HATE NAZIS!
There should be no place for them in today’s society, no matter how anyone spins it. It’s fucked up to the highest degree, and is extremely insulting and offensive to everyone who fought for our freedom and liberty, our rights and our right to be our honest authentic selves.
We should NOT tolerate intolerance.

Jsyk, paradox of intolerance goes right tf away whrn you realise we’re talking about a social contract violation.
My aunt’s parents were kids in nazi germany as well. Fuck they have some heartbreaking stories.

My mother was young during wwii.
She told me her Jewish neighbours were taken away. No description, just a statement. One of the very few things she said about her war experience.

Aunt’s father was one of the kids stuffed into uniforms and given guns once the allies started taking german territory. Dude was barely four foot in his 80’s recalled being captured by a US platoon, all of them HUGE in comparison. He spoke no english and they spoke no german. Freely admits he pissed himself.
Aunts mother complains about the rats. Always the rats. Only spoke of the actual nazi tenure once, when very drunk. Friends, neighbours, people were disappearing and everyone knew why but no one said or did anything. She broke down in tears. “We were so stupid”
