  No. They earned it by mining land stolen from natives.

    No. They earned it by forcing slaves to mine the land stolen from their Indigenous people.

      I love when Europeans talk about American slavery and colonialism like its not one of Europe’s favorite pastimes too.

  Sorry. Not all of us were able to get our country’s gold from the nazis.

    I’ll have you know some of us got our gold long before the nazis came to power.

    We had colonies to exploit.

    The Nazis plundered Europe to get that gold. Not sure where you’re getting the idea that the Nazis were a European enrichment scheme, other than maybe for Switzerland.
