Mercedes-Benz supplied vehicles for the Nazi regime, Volkswagen was founded to build cars for Hitler, and Siemens provided infrastructure for concentration camps. Their pursuit of profit made them complicit in atrocities.
Why did these companies collaborate? Simple - GREED.
They saw the Nazi regime as a lucrative opportunity. Corporate interests aligned with authoritarian ambitions, leading to devastating consequences.
These companies did more than just support the Nazis—they enabled the machinery of war and genocide. They provided resources, infrastructure, and legitimacy to a brutal regime—all for profit.
Fast forward to today: these companies still exist, but the lesson is clear: corporations prioritize their bottom line. We can’t expect them to act ethically without oversight.
This is why we must hold corporations accountable. Without regulation and vigilance, they will always chase profit, even if it means supporting harmful regimes. It’s up to us to demand accountability.
Today, we see similar patterns with corporations aligning with powerful figures for profit. History warns us: we must stay vigilant and hold them accountable. Let’s ensure that corporate power serves the public good, not just profit margins.
