William L. Shirer, author of The Rise and Fall of The Third Reich relates a memorable anecdote from when he talked to some German farmers in 1935. he asked them if they were at all worried about losing their freedoms. one farmer said to him something to the effect of "sure, under the Weimar Republic we had plenty of freedoms: the freedom of speech, freedom of religion, freedom to assembly, the freedom to starve..."

most of these guys didn't grow up with the republic in the first place, and at any rate weren't the products of a culture that valued democratic values. it wasn't that long ago that Germany had been an empire under a Kaiser. nominally, it had a parliament, but as in Russia's case, it was a mostly ornamental affair.

Have you wished Uncle Adolf happy birthday yet?

Can someone check my twitter page and let me know if it still works? It could be my internet

Please?

Mine is being autistic as well

Nothing new is loading

Mine says I can't retweet but can still like things

@Oliver Starley Why on earth would you wish a genocidal maniac a happy birthday? To be funny or to own the libs?

'Tis but a jest

I can see it

Good old zerg

19 years since Columbine

129 since a certain Austrian was born

Yesterday was the 25th anniversary of the Waco Siege. Surprised I heard no one mention that, not even Wikipedia on their homepage where it says "this day in history"

I've been having to explain that to my friends because it was before our time

last day the red baron flew

A little confusing because if you want to explain it other than "big fire with ATF" you have to go into detail on who Koresh was and why they were stockpiling weapons

I went to Waco about two years ago but didn't go to the site of the compound

50th anniversery of enoch powell's river of blood speech

Harris and Klebold chose April 20th either to coincide with Hitler's birthday, Oklahoma City bombing or Waco

Was talking to this British woman at my work and asked if they really band knives and she said "oh really? I hope so it's getting really bad over there with them they really need to"

I almost laughed and started roasting her

Nothing about that country is serious
