      the pigs broke in and put them on the ground and hit them repeatedly unprovoked in the face with clubs after they had been sitting motionless with their hands up - they just kept muttering things at them and regularly bashing them in the heads as the woman, taping it through an internal window, likely the wife and daughter, screamed at every blow.

    Imagine growing up hearing of Tsarist Pogroms and Kristallnacht, and then literally doing the same goddamn shit. I cannot understand these chuds.

    Where is their sense of shame? Where is the guilt they feel at spitting on the memory those who died and the meaning of their beliefs?

      My least favorite Western brain worm is the idea that suffering and oppression begets wisdom and compassion. It leads to a sort of subconscious insistence that there must be a silver lining to the Holocaust.
