Brilliant director!

Hello! Is there anyone intelligent and knowledgeable out there who wants to comment on this piece?
-
Yeah, I'm glad he didn't go with the gas chamber ending, it would be overkill.

EUROFAG TRASH BELOW. Typical example of why Europe is dying off

@Dirkdebruyne No. He never wanted to return to Hungary, he dropped whatever afflilation he had... so that ends of the national identity side of the debate. Furthermore, if one assumes Judiasm is just a religion, then he should only be considered an ethnic Austrian (He had no racial ties to Hungary, none at all).
Plus, Hungarians are niggers.
He is a Jew. He is not Austrian. Jews are apart of the select race of intellectually supreme individuals.

@macflyfilm HE WAS JEWISH. JEWISH>>>>>

CONTINUED -- Saying "He had no racial ties to Hungary" is as crazy as "He had no racial ties to New Jersey."
3) Speaking as someone who writes exposing antisemitism let me say that the statement "Jews are apart of the select race of intellectually supreme individuals" is a) unadulterated baloney and b) part of what those selling antisemitism preach, since antisemitism posits that Jews are a "race" (sic) of super evil beings. The SUPER and the EVIL are both lies!

Let me untwist "LongliveSnake2e"'s racist ravings.
1) The statement "Hungarians are niggers" is double racism -- it affirms anti-black racism to smear Hungarians. Since Hungarians are, in common parlance, "white," and since Hungary was an axis power in WWII, the fact that someone can apply an anti-black hate word to Hungarians shows the INSANITY of racism.
2) There's ONE race -- the human race. Race categorizing is hate fantasy..
