#HolocaustMemorialDay

0 publicaciones0 participantes0 publicaciones hoy

It was fascinating listening to the BBC's coverage of Holocaust Memorial Day yesterday. Specifically, fascinating to learn that when they're talking about atrocities that happened 80 years ago, they can really tell it like it is.

Compare and contrast how they wrote about Auschwitz with how they would have written about it if they were following their style guide for writing about present-day atrocities.

On this #HolocaustMemorialDay, it shouldn't be hard to connect the dots between #RFKJR's offer to #Samoa and Nazi experiments on concentration camp prisoners.

"The whole story behind RFK Jr. & #Samoa's #measles crisis has never been reported. He wanted to study a "natural experiment" of unvaccinated kids.

'I can’t imagine anything less ethical or more cruel.' "

"The Nazis closed down Jewish establishments including shops. Burnt Jewish synagogues. Beat Jews in the streets. Disallowed Jews from attending schools and universities, including Jewish professors. Made Jews register and forced them to wear yellow stars on their clothes in order to identify them."

Today is the 80th anniversary of the liberation of the Auschwitz/Osvětim concentration camp by the Red Army of the Soviet Union.

We must never forget the horrors that transpired there, and everything that the fascists did, past and present.

Death to fascism, death to nazism, and death to all those that spread, defend and make its proliferation possible.

99-year-old Anita Lasker-Wallfisch is the last remaining survivor of the Women's Orchestra of Auschwitz. She attributes her survival to the fact that the orchestra needed a cellist. She spoke to @BBCNews in 1945, on the day of the liberation of the Bergen-Belsen death camp to which she had been transferred six months before, and again in 1996. Here is her story, details of which some readers may find distressing. Having vowed never to set foot again on German soil, she later softened her stance and went in 2018 to Berlin to address the Bundestag (parliament). She told them: "As you see, I broke my oath – many, many years ago – and I have no regrets. It's quite simple: hate is poison and, ultimately, you poison yourself."

BBC · 'It was an escape into excellence': How music saved the life of a teenage Jewish cellist in AuschwitzPor Greg McKevitt

Struck me today, if WW2 had gone on longer, or even if they had won, then millions and millions more would have been killed.

They ONLY stopped because the Russians, and the allies to lesser extent, liberated the camps.

😞 This must not come again
