      Fuck around

      The VnJ’s founding statutes declared that its purpose was to represent "Germans of Jewish descent, who, while openly acknowledging their descent, feel so completely rooted in German culture and Wesen that they could not but think and feel as Germans.

      The goal of the association was the total assimilation of Jews into the German Volksgemeinschaft, self-eradication of Jewish identity, and the expulsion from Germany of Jewish immigrants from Eastern Europe.

      The VnJ rejected Zionism, Marxism, and liberal cosmopolitanism, emphasizing absolute loyalty to the German nation-state.

      Find out.

      Despite the extreme nationalism of Naumann and his colleagues, the Nazi regime did not accept the Association of German National Jews as a legitimate intermediary.

      the VnJ was declared illegal and dissolved on 18 November 1935. Naumann was arrested by the Gestapo the same day, and imprisoned at the Columbia concentration camp. He was released after a few weeks, and died of cancer in May 1939. Most other members and their families were murdered in the Holocaust.

        It’s almost the idiots that champion this kind of nonsense are willfully choosing to learn absolutely nothing from their elders and/or history.

        If that Fourth Turning stuff is accurate, we are right at the 80 year mark since WWII ended.

        I find awfully curious to note all the intergenerational warfare being whipped up at the same time, by the way. A constant barrage of hate for anyone that didn’t retire from their job at 65 or whatever the fuck, as if that’s the problem here.
