Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!

I just had a mental image in my head of Hitler being furious after finding out that a Jewish employee he deems as "one of the good ones" is sent to the concentration camp. I can imagine the race against time by Hitler himself to save his employee before being locked in to the gas chamber.

I'm torn,

because that sounds like a fantastic premise for a movie...

There's an opportunity there to invent a homoerotic subplot and use it in a sequel to The Producers.

Springtime For Hitler II: Winter Is Coming

I wanna see a movie where Hitler decides to abandon his plans for global domination when he discovers his true passion: underground street racing. And the cars better honk with a period appropriate "awooga".

For a sequel to springtime for Hitler, you can't just jump to "winter". And with it being homoerotic and thus presumably hot, I suggest Summer Of '39

Hitler did surprisingly have some close Jewish friend that he let slide. I’ll have to see if i can find that documentary i saw that in. I think it was from one of Mark Felton’s channels on YouTube.

Most bigots that I've met and interacted with (I don't go around placing this label on random folks, just those that genuinely earned that title) have their "exceptions" to their unbased hatred. These people operate purely off of emotion not logic. Some of them didn't even tokenize their friend they just have gargantuan gaps in their logic.

His driver was Jewish, iirc

So, a bit of a spoiler, but...This is basically the plot of the ending of "The Boy in the Striped Pajamas".

It is horrifying, and really sad. But the look of dismay on that officer's face at the end gives a very small touch of karma to it.
