    Not so good with history, anyone knows if there is any information about Nazis also sending political enemies to gas chambers, besides the Jews?

      They went after trans, gays, the disabled, Roma, trade unionists and Communists. It wasn’t just the Jews.

        It’s much worse than people seem to think these days, especially considering the disabled. I don’t know any words that convey how much I loathe nazis and people who have any sympathy for them

        Parents were told that their children were being sent to “Special Sections”, where they would receive improved treatment.[59] The children sent to these centres were kept for “assessment” for a few weeks and then killed by injection of toxic chemicals, typically phenol; their deaths were recorded as “pneumonia”.

      Not sure about the mode of execution, but fuck yeah they did.

      Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Sophie Scholl & posse, just to name the probably most famous. Both were part of the “master race” btw.

      Communists and anti-Hitler politicians were some of the first to be rounded up. That’s the first line of the poem First They Came by Martin Niemöller.

      First they came for the Communists
      And I did not speak out
      Because I was not a Communist
