Photo of Joseph Goebbels frowning at photographer Alfred Eisenstaedt after finding out he’s Jewish

Mark Twain circa 1900

Nazis did not want you to see the Photos. Blocked Heil Hitler

Is it only Sal who is not able to view the photos or is nobody seeing them?
They're showing in the posts for me.  I wonder what computer geek nonsense could be at fault this time. I think that canadian outfit that fubar'ed up the obamacare website must have designed this forum software too.

I never used to think armpits were sexy, funny how some little thing can change a long held belief....

Accounts by survivors who saw the entire Goebbels family after they went into hiding beneath Berlin’s Reich Chancellory differ in some details about what happened on May 1, 1945. Not in dispute is that Joseph Goebbels and his wife Magda ordered the murder of their own children — Helga, 12, Hildegard, 11, Helmut, 9, Holdine, 8, Hedwig, 6 and Heidrun, 4 years old, all given names starting with H in honor of Hitler — with morphine and then cyanide, after which they themselves committed suicide. (An SS doctor named Ludwig Stumpfegger likely administered the lethal cyanide doses to the six children after they had fallen asleep, or passed out, from morphine.)

Hate and prejudice rarely ends well. When insanity becomes the norm, bad things happen.

It would have been a privelege and a joy to be able to be the one to chain him up and slowly torture him to death. He's the perfect example of why I don't believe insanity should be a defense.

And make no mistake. This is not exclusive to those krauts.
We could just as easily have some lunatic pied piper here who his hangers on name their children after him and do his bidding for him.
In psychology they refer to them as personality cults. They happen all the time. It's probably just a matter of time before one gets on the national stage.

Don't worry, it's not either bush or obama or any of them I've seen to this point. We're talking about "hitler-class" here. And they aint it. lol

None of that would have been necessary, and maybe his children could have had happy lives if only good people stood up to Nazi propaganda and challenged the same, but like this forum few will go against the flow. In America we are an independent people who have courage and will not tolerate the lies and cowardice of Nazis. That man was a worm, but the sad thing is that he was a worm early on......just needed a few wormcallers early on......that is all.

But nobody read this thread and noticed something peculiar about it.
I didn't either when it was shown to me until it was revealed.

All those photos, Geobbels, Mark Twain and Liz, are brilliantly colorized black and white photos.
Each of the three photos captures it's era more than a thousand words. But all we have are the black and white photos. What they've done here is make it look EXACTLY like it is the photography we have today. Photography is our time machine to show us that past. And with this we just went from seeing the past in standard definition to seeing it in full HD.
It's like we did an upgrade to our time machine. Because those photos are the only real time machine we have. The H.G. Wells one is fiction. lol

Some did. Except they were old testament like me. Here they are...

No the time to have stood up was way before the war machine was in place and it did not have to do with personalities, it had everything to do with the propaganda which should have been challenged.

Whose propaganda? You don't think the nazis invented that do you?

H. G. Wells,one of the most influential progressives of the 20th century,said in 1932 that progressives must become “liberal fascists” and “enlightened Nazis.” Regarding totalitarianism,he stated: “I have never been able to escape altogether from its relentless logic.” Calling for a “‘Phoenix Rebirth’ of Liberalism” under the umbrella of “Liberal Fascism,” Wells said: “I am asking for a Liberal Fascisti,for enlightened Nazis.”

The poet Wallace Stevens pronounced himself “pro-Mussolini personally.”

The eminent historian Charles Beard wrote of Mussolini’s efforts: “Beyond question,an amazing experiment is being made [in Italy],an experiment in reconciling individualism and socialism.”

Muckraking journalists almost universally admired Mussolini. Lincoln Steffens,for one,said that Italian fascism made Western democracy,by comparison,look like a system run by “petty persons with petty purposes.” Mussolini,Steffens proclaimed reverently,had been “formed” by God “out of the rib of Italy.”

McClure’s Magazine founder Samuel McClure,an important figure in the muckraking movement,described Italian fascism as “a great step forward and the first new ideal in government since the founding of the American Republic.”

After having vistited Italy and interviewed Mussolini in 1926, the American humorist Will Rogers,who was informally dubbed “Ambassador-at-Large of the United States” by the National Press Club,said of the fascist dictator: “I’m pretty high on that bird.” “Dictator form of government is the greatest form of government,” Rogers wrote,“that is,if you have the right dictator.”

Reporter Ida Tarbell was deeply impressed by Mussolini's attitudes regarding labor,affectionately dubbing him “a despot with a dimple.”

NAACP co-founder W. E. B. DuBois saw National Socialism as a worthy model for economic organization. The establishment of the Nazi dictatorship in Germany,he wrote, had been “absolutely necessary to get the state in order.” In 1937 DuBois stated: “there is today,in some respects,more democracy in Germany than there has been in years past.”

FDR adviser Rexford Guy Tugwell said of Italian fascism: “It's the cleanest,neatest,most efficiently operating piece of social machinery I've ever seen. It makes me envious.”

New Republic editor George Soule,who avidly supported FDR,noted approvingly that the Roosevelt administration was “trying out the economics of fascism.”

Playwright George Bernard Shaw hailed Stalin,Hitler,and Mussolini as the world’s great “progressive” leaders because they “did things,” unlike the leaders of those “putrefying corpses” called parliamentary democracies.

But there was plenty of praise from the nazis coming back too. Hitler himself praised Sanger for her work in eugenics. Gobbels credited the progressives here with the foundations of their propaganda. Yes... if only we knew who supported fascism.

Interesting stuff, Pkr. And it's why we should never accept anything coming from government at face value. We should always question any of it.
And yes that even includes the "libertarians" you admire.

I guess what I'm saying is that I have no desire to wave any government flag. I may have to obey the laws. But I stop short of patriotism to any flag.
My only patriotism is to the human beings I know. And I sure as goddamn hell don't know any of those fuckers. All I have is that media filter. And I now trust that about as far as I could throw the whole lot of it.

I don't admire anyone in politics... from the politicians to the pundits to the members of the party.

I rarely hear anything that includes enough context to be factually accurate... much less an objective analysis.
