they certainly tried. but i think you miss my point; i think it's much easier to drop a religion and its associated culture than it is to drop your skin color. those runaway slaves were a product of race mixing and had the "luck" of white passing. jews in germany were already white passing. they looked like any other german, pole, and russian. let's face it, it was an ethnic conflict, not a racial one.

it was about race because the nazi did not see the jews as being the same as them genetically.

If Nazis thought every non Indo-euro wasn’t a part of the Aryan race, it would be a race war. It might be idiotic and incorrect, but through the eyes of a Nazi all non-Aryans were “tainted” races right?

You do know some Jews escaped persecution by simply claiming they're not Jewish, right?

Could a black slave just say "I'm actually white", and escape slavery? How about a lynching? What about going into colored vs white spaces in Jim Crow?

German Jews were a thing. They spoke German, were born in and lived in Germany their whole lives, and by all accounts were German. The only difference is that they were Jewish. That's why names like Baumgartner, Kaizer, Silberstein, etc exist.
what the actual fukk are you talking about :childplease:


Shyt he was of jewish blood too. Shyt crazy

It was about "race" to the nazis. That's what the Nazis told themselves. But it was just literally 1 group of ethnic white people trying to kill off another group of ethnic white people. Jews are an ethnicity. Aryan is an ethnicity. It was not racial.

And if you want to say that race isn't real it's just a social construct, then again, it wasn't racial.

Euro Jews are Schrodinger's cacs. White or nonwhite depending on what the situation calls for. She's not wrong, but a lot of nonwhite people were killed by the Nazis necause they weren't "Aryan".

That being said, she's an idiot for saying that. Its like folk remarking about blacks selling or owning slaves. It's true, but it's not relevant in the larger picture and just pisses people off.

But she's said a lot of stupid shyt like caping for Roman Polanski. fukk her.

Brilliant :mjlol:

Even if those European Jews were white the Nazis clearly didn't view them as the same race as them. So saying "it's not about race cuz they're both white" is disingenuous af

:comeon:They wanted the Jews gone because they controlled the banks and the wealth ect, held many high value positions And they exercised discreet financial tribalism, primarily looking out for other Jews first (which is fine). The Nazis didn't like that about them and didnt trust them, and did not see them in their plan for domination. They had the power to try and get them out the paint for good, so the sick azzholes went for it.

It wasn't primarily because they were of a different "race" Per se. It boiled down to evil pricks taking a killshot at what they perceived to be a threat, and is the ultimate precautionary tale that it could happen to anyone. It's not simply a racism story. That's why it needs to continue being taught in schools, Which is what Whoopi is trying to say.

I've been told jews were barred from most trades and occupations except banking which they excelled in. They fukked around and became masters of coin and the countries they were in stopped fukking with them . Another thing that someone told me is they would never kick back into the economies they were involved in, kept all money between themselves and Never gave a cent back.
