I know this will trigger some folks here, but I'm watching Thursday Night Football on Prime. And they managed to bring up the Holocaust.

The game is in Cincinnati. They did a piece on the Cincinnati train station. And the station had a recent exhibition about the Holocaust. Can you name anything else from the 40s that gets brought up as much?

You can’t. The simple fact is the founding mythology of “multicultural” America entirely relies on WW2 and the death of nationalism and homogenous countries.

I forget who said it, but WW2 is our foundation, the Civil Rights Act is our Constitution, and MLK Jr. is our Founding Father.

Sounds right, although I think I heard Dave Smith paraphrasing him.

The two things the modern world is built on: everyone is 100% the same, the holocaust was the worst thing ever.

You missed one:

White people, men, Christians, and any combination of the above, are the source of all the world's problems.

Your daily reminder that the whole 'death camps' thing didn't come up until after Patton's murder after WW2.

A lot of the narrative came into being after the war. Not saying everything was fake, but things weren't as presented, and most people have been taught to believe WW2 happened in a way it didn't, and for reasons it didn't.

The Holocaust narrative is a lot like the narratives around Hitler. Where its apparently just a game of "say the worst possible thing and attach it to it, whose gonna defend it?" and you end up with things like death coasters and shit fetishes that defy any reasonability.

Its really boring, because in both cases the actual truth is likely plenty interesting or horrific enough.

When I was in high school a decade ago it was 1 million jews, and 5 million of cripples, mentally deficient, gypsies, Poles, and everyone else in a mix of concentration camps and being worked to death. Which seemed bad enough to me, no need to lie about it.

Did they give you graphic depictions of camp line rapes in middle school? I had those. Told from the POV of a holobunga "survivor'.

Nope, just "some were starved to death, some were shot, some were gassed, and others worked to death. Mostly they were buried in mass graves discovered after the war and some were cremated en masse." You know, probably the truth. Bad things happening in a war dont need to be embellished, that's just stupid.

Weird, I was in highschool almost 20 years ago (granted in Canada) and we were taught it was 6 million Jews and 5 million cripples, gypsies, homosexuals, political prisoners and Poles.

6 gorillian didn’t even start as a modern Holobunga # unil 1900. Wait that was before the Holobunga!

Mine was a few decades ago and it was "around 5-6 million Jews and about that many of the cripples, gays, gypsies, etc." And we even spent some time on a "famous" cripple who was grabbed so it wasn't fully brushed aside. It seemed pretty to the point and unembellished, because the numbers were large enough to be meaningless beyond "big" and they didn't spend much time hammering home the grisly details.

Perhaps it was because it was the dirty South, but they spent far more time and emotional energy on Slavery/Civil War and the Indian wars/massacres. WW2 and the Holocaust was basically just given a pretty general note compared to even the Revolutionary War.

The only real notable time we ever spent was one teacher made us read Number the Stars and that was treated no different than any other book assignment. We never even had to do Anne Frank.

The whole death camps thing didn’t come up until the early 70s.

200 years from now there will STILL be living Holocaust survivors. Perhaps even more than there are now!

Apparently the train station was a big hub for returning veterans and holocaust survivors, according to the NFL piece

The NFL benefits tremendously from mandatory helmets that also obscure player faces. If viewers could see that 70% of the people on the field are contemptuous ghetto blacks, the NFL wouldn’t be nearly so popular.

I've cleverly spotted the problem and have a cunning solution.

  • Problem: You're watching NFL.
  • Solution: Stop doing that.

You're just encouraging retarded behavior and throwing money at people that hate you and want you and your family dead.

If you absolutely must watch a bunch of negros in tights run around playing with their balls, you should at least pirate it. No need to give money to companies that hate you.
