Imagine walking through Auschwitz muttering “Well actually, some of the victims were German citizens.”
Bro.
That’s not the point.
That’s never been the point.
The premise of the joke is that the Germans were the perpetrators. If you make this statement about the whole group, then you include many of the victims and make the. perpetrators.
No one is blaming the victims. The joke doesn’t collapse under the weight of national nuance. It’s targeting the absurdity of whitewashing perpetrators, (Nazis, yes, overwhelmingly German), by reframing them as victims. That you read it as a blanket indictment of 'Germans' says more about ...
One might say that legally detained ghetto residents started killing patriotic German soldiers and police. Who were will within their rights to fight back. Remember that in years to come and American cities.
Same! Love the pitchbot, and I definitely scrolled back several times after half reading it, thinking it was real and that I had to be mis-reading it. Then I thought, well... maybe??

Many of the victims were in fact German.
You can be German and Jewish at the same time, you know?
Also, German and gay is a possible combination of characteristics.
You can have a disability and a German passport at the same time.
All these groups and more were sent to the camps.

Don't blame the victims.
