I’m trying to find a quote about how heroes in WW1 become villain in WW2, but i can’t find it.
So let’s just pretend this comment is saying that quote.
Edit: if i recall correctly, it says that many villain will stay a hero if WW2 didn’t happen.
When in doubt, just attribute it to Winston Churchill. Wait…
well, in shortage of historical quotes let’s substitute that with a batman one
“You either die a hero or you live long enough to become the villain” - Harvey Dent
So all the accusations against them were rumors (surely not at all influenced by them being gay or (likely) trans 🙄), and they were murdered by a militia that had no qualms murdering children, but they’re the monster here?
So all the accusations against them were rumors
No, only some details are disputed. It’s undisputed that they were a Nazi collaborator.
but they’re the monster here?
For willingly collaborating with the Nazis? Yes.
The worse accusation were rumors, they still helped the Nazis by getting them gas, space, and driving them around. The problem with facists is that everyone remotely involved in helping them gets put at the same level. All of ICE whether they’re driving the trucks or actually kidnapping folks are still ICE members. Whatever washed up actor or comedian of the day is also not going to get sympathy from me. Peter Thiel is gay, that has nothing to do with the horrors he is helping unleash on the rest of us.
Considering it sounds like they couldn’t get work anywhere else, can you really blame them for working for the only group that gave them a chance? And the situation you described is already preying on those crushed under student debt and out of work. Are you really going to say everyone taking the only opportunity they’re given are equally as bad as the fuckers calling the shots and doing the deeds? It doesn’t make the actions ok, but not everyone up and down the chain deserves a death sentence. You can have and show compassion to those that deserve it and still hold people accountable to the degree that they deserve it.
Yes I absolutely can blame them, if the only place you can find work is with nazis then you’re unemployed
Had a mastectomy to “fit into cars better.” Right.
It sounds like the gravest accusations against her were just rumors. I wouldn’t be surprised, given how poorly she was treated before the war due to her non-gender-conforming lifestyle. Odd to think that a homosexual woman would end up being treated better by the Nazis…
This is beyond mental. Maybe she was always like this, it just wasn’t really known yet.
