Diversity Macht Frei
September 21, 2017
Gregor Gysi, of Die Linke [The Left], the party which literally represents a continuation of the Communist party that ran the dictatorship in East Germany, has chosen a rather strange poster to campaign with for the upcoming German elections. It bears a single word, “Trotzdem!”, which means “Nonetheless”.
This is clearly a reference to the Jewish Communist Karl Liebknecht whose final article before he was killed by German patriots bore the title “Trotz alle dem”, a variant of the same thing.
In an interview, Gysi admitted he was evoking Liebknecht’s words.
Liebknecht admired the Bolshevik revolution in Russia and, along with his fellow Jew, Rosa Luxemburg, was trying to organise its equivalent in Germany. Patriotic Freikorps forces crushed their attempt at revolution and killed both of them. It’s fascinating, though, that a Jewish candidate evokes this era with admiration and, of course, impunity. You can be sure that no one in the cowed German elite will describe it as scandalous that a political opponent expresses nostalgia for a Communist revolutionary who opposed democracy and wanted to institute a dictatorship, taking as his model a regime that butchered millions.
Contrast this with the response to an AfD candidate, Ulrich Oehme, who campaigned in Chemnitz with a poster saying “Alles für Deutschland”.
This just means “Everything for Germany”, the kind of trite slogan we hear in politics all the time. Unfortunately for Oehme, it seems the Nazi Sturmabteilung [Storm Division] used the same slogan, even imprinting it on their daggers. (I want one of these btw.)
Oehme had no idea about the previous use of the slogan, but that hasn’t stopped a police investigation being launched against him. He may eventually be prosecuted for making use of Nazi symbols.
Gysi, you can be sure, will not be prosecuted or even reproached, because we have been fed a falsified version of the history of the 20th century , one that obsesses about Adolf Hitler while resolutely ignoring what it was Hitler was reacting to: the Communist East, where millions died in horrors orchestrated by members of a tribe not their own, lacking any sense of empathy for the people or traditions of the country they lived in, possessed by an alien zeal for destruction.
Some of this alien zeal is still to be found in the mind of Gregor Gysi, it seems. In 2015 (link), he expressed satisfaction about the fact that every year more Germans were dying than being born. (About 4.29 on the video)
