dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

Upon release from prison, Peiper worked for the Porsche and Volkswagen automobile companies and later moved to France, where he worked as a freelance translator. Throughout his post-war life, Peiper was very active in the social network of ex-SS men centred upon the right-wing organisation HIAG (Mutual Aid Association of Former Members of the Waffen-SS).

In 1976, Peiper died from asphyxiation after communist arsonists discovered his identity and set his house on fire.

A shame those arsonists didn't find him sooner.

Only mistake Stalin made was stopping in Berlin.

Yep, that one was definitely also a mistake.

This could be a great premise for a silly TV show. Like "Tires" but with a Nazi

In the US military, the idolatry of Peiper penetrated the official publications of the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD). In 2019, the DoD Facebook account included a colourised military photograph of Peiper in Waffen-SS uniform in an audiovisual commemoration of the 75th anniversary of the US Army fighting Wehrmacht and Waffen-SS soldiers at the Battle of the Bulge which included the Malmedy Massacre (1944) committed by Kampfgruppe Peiper.

Not surprised but agony-deep

NATO was practically Denazi High where they all got to hang out with their best friends after the conclusion of the hit series "nazi germany"

[Wikipedia page for some SS ghoul]

Heinrich Schtürmller was sentenced to 15 years hard labour for ordering the execution of 5,000 civilians in Nuremfuld, Öst-Bavaria

Heinrich was later released on good behaviour 5 weeks later on special request of the West German population who were suspiciously eager to fight the Soviets for some reason.

Following his release, he became special envoy at the West German institute for Jewish Reconciliation, where he lobbied the authorities to encourage emigration of ethnic Jews to Israel.

Weird how Nazis keep getting into my anticommunism

[–] BelieveRevolt@hexbear.net 16 points 13 hours ago

There was also that bank manager guy who was killed by the RAF.

Peiper? of Kampfgruppe Peiper? He did one of the worst warcrimes of the western front when his men murdered 84 POW's at the Malmedy massacre.

His unit was fresh from the eastern front, they were just going through the motions.

May their souls rest unburdened from the justice served through antifascist vengeance.

Nazi, car salesman, is there any difference?

[–] alexei_1917@hexbear.net 20 points 13 hours ago* (last edited 13 hours ago) (1 children)

I suspect the car salesman would be less sleazy and scummy.

Even one who sells used cars.

(And at least the car salesman probably hasn't committed any veritable war crimes.)

[–] Le_Wokisme@hexbear.net 1 points 1 hour ago

how many us veterans are selling cars?
