    “The nazis were defeated but never really destroyed”

    So, if we are being entirely accurate, we could acknowledge “nazi” the political ideology from “nazi” the soldiers themselves. It might have been naive for America to think an ideology could be eliminated, when they bring a bunch of the nazis home, and give them high paying prestigious jobs and praise them as heros. Many will react with anger to reading that, despite this info not being conspiratorial in the slightest. Its been confirmed by various high ranking military officers and well known politicians. It’s in fact soo mainstream that even wikipedia has an extensive article about it, The documents have long since been declassified, and can be found on the official cia reading room website. And still, even with all that, its not something kids will ever learn in school. Its noteworthy how they don’t hesitate to call out historical colonial figures for owning slaves, and yet Werner Von Brahn’s body lyes in an expensive custom tomb, and he is still basically celebrated as a founder of NASA. The German Nazi military had advanced beyond the US and the USSR in missile technology, and long range missiles were the basis for how we eventually built space shuttles. We only really “won” the cold war space race thanks to the engineers who were formally nazis, but that is far from the only example of Americas alliance with nazis.

    Madison Square Garden once hosted the American Nazi party political event in 1930s. They like to make that event seem like some error in judgement that just slipped by. But actually, during the 30s Americans respected the Nazis, and that even was hosted live on network television, because the American nazi party was HUGE! A few years later, Hitler hosted the Olympic games, which were attended civilly by UsA & Russia, and Hitler famously posed on the cover of Times magazine, just as Zelensky did (noticing a trend here? America is sending billions to the Azov Battalion, who our leaders have called “good people”, but they are not too fond of who is on the “other side” this time. That would be big ol meanie Vladamir Putin, who has been quoted countless times stating that his goal was to “de-nazify Ukraine”.

    Another thing you wont learn in school; the “hitler salute”? Hitler got it from us, the USA. Hitler admired America, thats why he repurposed “the bellamy salute” (look it up) all school children would “do the Elon” while reciting the pledge of allegiance, with the direction of the hand pointed towards the American flag.

    Margaret Sanger, creator of Planned Parenthood, was reportedly “pen pals” with hitler. Theyd write to one another discussing the intellectual importance of eugenics programs to “strengthen the genepool”, which both believed to thwart the threat to the future of white race.

    Its 2025 guys, if we want to prevent an event like that, its important to know the FULL history. America also placed asians in concentration camps here at home, and we occupied a part of post ww2 Germany along with USSR, and did to the citizens what had been done to minorities. We killed the innocents, and brought our nazi friends back home. And it was 1999 before we formerly put our last “gas chamber” out of comission, but until then we used it to execute hundreds. (and the last one was in California btw).

      I knew about the initial sympathy for Hitler. Especially about the Olympics hosted in Germany, with all the Leni Riefenstahl imagery.

      Everything in history is much more convoluted and complicated than one would imagine. Even knowing everything, one should keep in mind, that history is written by the winning side.

      Like the things happening now. I’m happy for the WTF newsletter, summarizing a little of WTF Happened Today? I find it hard to keep track of the important stuff, while they keep massively bombarding us with bullshit everyday.
