it's 2021, why are we still being asked to understand Nazis, racists and white supremacists? asking for all the members of my family who perished in the holocaust

[Blue Owl]

1. K&R

[smirkymonkey]

2. +1000

[BComplex]

3. And asking for my dad, who was held for 2 years as a POW by the nazis,

after he was shot down in a plane while trying to save Jeff Tiedrich's family members (and all the other victims of the nazis) from the holocaust.

I have no patience for ANY republican after this. They're all nazis now, as far as I'm concerned.

[Trailrider1951]

4. I'm also asking for my Dad

who spent the latter part of his teenage years and the early part of his twenties in a tank in North Africa and Italy, and took a Nazi bullet at Anzio. I think I understand these MFers enough to know I want them out of my government!

[Cha]

5. Rt.. Because whomever is wanting that

is GD Stupid. We "understand".. they're vicious brainwashed Psychopaths.

[Hermit-The-Prog]

6. Because the Radical Republican Reich promises deregulation and tax cuts to the filthy rich.

[BobTheSubgenius]

7. "understanding," in certain contexts, is necessary of you are going to start playing Whack-A-Mole

And the time is way past needing to start that in earnest.

[Ferrets are Cool]

8. It is unfathomable.

Nazi's have no place in this world.

[Thunderbeast]

9. Asking for half of my then living ancestors

All of them perished.

[DLCWIdem]

10. K & R

[Wounded Bear]

11. I think we "understand" those assholes quite well...

Mostly, we understand that we cannot cede power to them.

[Butterflylady]

12. Excellent question.

[CaptYossarian]

13. We need to understand mental illness in order to treat it.

[LSFL]

14. It is not mental illness

These are monsters and their sycophants. They want it this way.

[CaptYossarian]

16. I'm looking at it as them hating entire groups of strangers for no good reason.

I simply can't imagine hating someone for their skin color, national origin, gender identity, religion or whom they love. I can only hate people who individually do wrong by me or my family.

My examples would include Dylann Roof and Killer Kyle.

[JudyM]

15. K&R

[usaf-vet]

17. And asking for all the military members who lived with PTSD in part for what they saw liberating...

..... the camps.

[Ford_Prefect]

18. I'm asking for my dad's division who liberated one of the camps.

Whenever they got together at reunions they all told the story of how grim it was, how it was the worst part of their entire war. It was part of the unit history they swore never to forget and never to allow it here.
