He joined the SS in 1932 and was tasked with event security for political rallies which routinely became violent. And then he rose through the ranks of an organization dedicated to covert violence very quickly. So, I wouldn't bank on that.
My point is that he killed, whether he was holding a gun or a pen; he caused people to die on purpose. He is a mudderer. I don't give a shit if he ever pulled a trigger, and deserved much worse than the hanging he got. As do his modern counterparts.
We can definitely talk about Social Murder as a phenomenon.
But I think it's a bit too cutesy by half to assert a man climbed his way up the ranks of the SS in the middle of an insurrection in order to lead its mass extermination division managed it without ever getting his hands dirty.
I think we're going to see folks who come out of the ICE recruitment of the Trump Two era who will also rise through the ranks and become mass murderers. I think we've already got guys like that - Ron DeSantis famously oversaw torture at Guantanamo Bay as attendant legal counsel - in positions of power.
They'll all be able to look you in the face with dead fucking eyes and say "Prove I did anything wrong". And I think quite a few liberals will nod and shrug and say "I guess the Rule of Law says we can't do anything now that all the folks who could contradict this claim are in an unmarked grave".
This is the wedge that lets these creeps crawl into power to begin with. Willful ignorance of the crimes of this country only serve to give sociopaths a ladder to climb.
And im saying they should all be voted for. And if they're vile enough, like desantis, any family who didnt disown tbem should be voted for.
