At least they had the decency to eventually remove “don’t be evil” from their mission statement or whatever lol
Hahahaha remember when a bunch of redditors thanked a nazi for his service?
haha I looked that up again recently for shits and giggles, and it wasn’t just some wehrmacht grunt either, he was fucking Waffen SS
I just went back and reread part of it as well and wow it’s even worse than I remember
While I will admit that my first instinct on seeing your grandfather was a member of the SS was one of repulsion, reading his responses has shown me that my instinct was based on ignorance.
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
I guess it’s an interesting piece of history but like . . . :soviet-hmm:
Modeled some of their policies after our anti-indigenous genocide and segregation. Literally cited a U.S. Supreme Court case on eugenics (Buck v. Bell) at the Nuremberg Trials.
I don’t believe that his grandpa was forced to join the Nazis or that he only drove trucks or that absolves him of being fucking nazi
I shot myself in the hand with a pellet gun once. It fuckin hurt, I had to go to urgent care to get it pulled out and had to wear some real cumbersome bandages for a week. Thankfully there was no permanent damage, but I keep the pellet they pulled out of me in a little plastic jar on my desk as a reminder to myself on not to do stupid shit again.
Of course, my regrettable choices in life have never resulted in genocide, so I don’t know what Grandpa Nazi’s problem there is, other than the obvious
