'Creative Resistance' in the Nazi Camps

[grunder20]

back in the days? man, i really am lucky i was born in the new age.

I've got to ask,how do you get access to paints and paintbrushes and musical instruments in a "death camp" ? Between the art supplies,music instruments and the swimming pool and brothal at Aushwitz it seems less and less like a prison and more and more like a holiday fun resort !!!

Too bad the 40+ million Russian Christians and 20+ million Ukrainian Christians that the Communist Jewish Leaders in the NKVD slaughtered and starved to death didn't have a 'creative resistance' movement.

[BadgerinSC]

So the Nazis killed people "in the crematorium"? (Where one cremates an already dead corpse) Utter nonsense. The greatest hoax ever perpetrated in recorded history.

@BadgerinSC i'm sorry, I don't think so. I'm just tired of reading all of you poor "revisionists", trying to demonstrate that Shoah never happened. You are just poor people. The nazis already tried to destroy any evidence of their crimes... luckly somebody did fight against oblivion. It's so easy not to imagine or trying to understand, but please read a little bit more: the structure called "crematorium" indicates the buildings with gas chambers and hovens inside.

Wait a minute.... I thought these were "death camps". But the jew prisoners were allowed by the "evil" SS guards to paint, write poetry, and perform classical music.

[DandJRuffin]

Why are these scholars trying to define and re-define the motives of people they have not met? Wy are they inventing such an expression as "creative resistance"? I have a feeling they consider it shameful not to risk ones neck and simply try to survive? Why is it wrong to simply cope with a situation instead of revolting? What are they trying to accomplish? I don't understand ...

[johnroshan]

Why is that the same people who suffered so much during WW2 are so willing to inflict the same pain on another group now?

[japetsgmail]

Great short video.

Waiting for one about resistance against red communism in WW2 and after that as my country suffered from them much, much more.

It's easy to live in US and say hey these nacis, but if jewish were on the move to China and try to take all the money with them and ferther more rob everything, what would you do then? ... naci just make good bussiness, and so bank of the New York ... hehehe

[TheRationalizer]

I still don't understand why the Nazi's wanted to kill all of those people, was it simply to increase the ratio of resources to people?

[wijse]

@TheRationalizer Rationalize this. Qui Bono? Who have profited the most from the Holocaust? They received Israel and they have extorted billions of money out of the Holocaust industry. Everytime there is somekind of criticism of Israel and the Jews, you can bet there is going to be some kind of new focus on the plight of the Jews and the Holocaust. A new documentary, book, study or movie.

[wijse]

@TheRationalizer Jews have always found ways to maximize the profits out of everything. Did you know since around 170 bc the Jews have been expelled 77 times from 77 different cities. It makes you wonder that they might be the cause of their own demise, people do not hate people for nothing.

[TheRationalizer]

@wijse

>People do not hate people for nothing.

Sure they do. They also hate them for minor things, and exaggerated + incorrect assumptions/stereotypes.

Freud noted that people tend to hate more those who are most similar to themselves but slightly different.

[GorgonLuvs8008135]

Never should one think of what these people went through with out remembering the occupation of Palestine or that Israel dropped white phosphorus on Gaza. The leaders of Israel have changed "Never again" to "Never again to us".

[Zubinen]

@GorgonLuvs8008135 The people you speak of don't matter. The Jewish race contributes greatly to humanity's knowledge pool, what do the others do?

[TheRationalizer]

@Zubinen

You don't have to contribute to science to be a worthwhile human being. They matter because they are humans - the gypsies during WWII didn't contribute to science either, was it okay to exterminate them in their millions?

What have YOU contributed to the pool of human knowledge?

[Zubinen]

@TheRationalizer What benefit is there in allowing such people to live? As for myself, I'm currently a physics student, I'm doing a research internship, and I've written several survey articles, but I'm in my first year of undergraduate study. I'm double majoring in physics and mathematics, and I plan to contribute to the field of mathematical physics once I finish graduate school.

To clarify things, however, I'll admit that I was just playing devil's advocate(the elitist Jewish perspective).

[TheRationalizer]

@Zubinen

"What benefit is there in allowing such people to live?"

1: At what age should you kill anyone who has not contributed to the pool of human knowledge?

2: Have your parents contributed?

3: Are you certain your children will?

4: What about your grandchildren, who will inevitably no longer be born?

5: Who is going to run your country's infrastructure (truck drivers) etc?

6: With a smaller DNA pool we are more likely to become extinct after a new virus emerges.

Good enough reasons?

[utfanatic2000]

@Zubinen "The people you speak of don't matter." Wow, even a true Nazi, 70 years ago, would have been proud.

Every person matters because s/he is a human being, one of us.
