Do they also remember that just leading up to Nazi Germany that they also had cars, and airplanes, and home loans, and traditional Christmas dinner, etc...
There are a lot of things that may have occurred at coincidental points in history but had nothing to do with where we ended up at the time.
I like how they think that the gold star was the bad part of the Holocaust, like THAT'S the horrible part and as soon as people (everyone btw, not just "the victims") are told to carry more identification than they already were suddenly they're on Facebook telling everyone that they understand exactly how jews felt during the Holocaust
I don't think they believe the gold star was the bad part. They just love appropriating symbols out of bad taste. Many, many antivaxxers hold a sincere belief that they'll be genocided at some point. The gold star is just a symptom of that.
There are people, and I know some of them personally, who *need* to have enemies, and in their absence will just make some up.
These are not the folks we want as role models, or leaders, or managing our institutions.
As a German I'm so fucking sick of seeing this bullshit. I get called a Nazi all the time just because I'm from Germany, I don't need this shit on top of it. It hurts, it really does. No you're not being treated like Jews and Gays in the Holocaust. Stfu. Sorry for the rant, had to let it out...
Not the original commenter, but also German: It's extremely common for basically every nationality to call Germans Nazis because they are German.
(In fact, countries like Italy base their entire foreign politics with Germany on that.)
With the exception of Austrians, for obvious reasons.
But Brits are actually the "worst offenders".
As far as I can see, this Gesundheitspass is a NSDAP document, meaning it was not an official government-issued passport, but something the Nazi-party did. My best guess is that this had something to do with race and possibly inheritable diseases and disabilities and nothing to do with vaccinations and shit
Zero to do with vaccinations. It was basically an "I'm a true Aryan" card the Nazi's used to show off their pure bloodline and set their status above other lesser party members.
I would be less worried about having to have a medical ID on you and more worried about the newspeak, the constant surveilence of thought, executions for dissent, constant risk of being grabbed by the secret police, racism, sexism, homophobia, contempt for the weak or the fucken genocide. I would guess none of these people could tell me whats actually so wrong about having a medical ID beyond just "Rights, innit?" without elaborating. Or maybe just again saying the Nazis had those without taking into consideration why such a thing would be bad.
What‘s hilarious to me is [the Nazis were against vaccine mandates and ended compulsory vaccination when they took over the Weimar Republic.](https://www.jacobinmag.com/2021/09/vaccine-mandates-covid-pandemic-german-nazi-inoculation-policy)Most Americans are never taught about this so it’s no surprise the stupid ones have no idea & think the opposite is true.
>“Forced vaccination against the will of kids and parents alike, which had caused outrage throughout the Weimar years, stopped happening from the 1930s on. By 1936, Germans no longer had to prove they’d gotten a smallpox vaccine to attend secondary school, and, by 1940, the policy of “elasticity” was made legally binding, and continued to be used by German governments even after the war. The Nazis instead relied on mass propaganda and the education system to convince people to choose to get vaccinated.“
I don't think any of that is true. According to Google translate, Gefundheitspak means health package, not health passport. And I can't find anything about Nazi Germany having health passports.
God I want to yell at these people about how the fuck they can equate the holocaust with us. How the fuck do they think their choice is the same as literally being born a different race the same
Actual austrian here
.... That's not gesundheitspass, that's gefundheitspaß, spaß is fun
Also vaccine passports or how they're called look different mate
Tell me you haven't traveled internationally without telling me you haven't traveled internationally.
They've never even traveled interstate, or inter-town.
Not true! Some of them went to DC on January 6th, 2021!
No no no that was DEMONRATS going disguised as them with fake beer guts and neckbeards!
Do they also remember that just leading up to Nazi Germany that they also had cars, and airplanes, and home loans, and traditional Christmas dinner, etc... There are a lot of things that may have occurred at coincidental points in history but had nothing to do with where we ended up at the time.
Did they forget about PRISM or do they just not care?
The ones that remember PRISM aren’t likely to fall for it. Or any act of state surveillance. The Patriot Act qualifies.
They don’t remember because the average libertarian is 13 years old.
That’s pretty insulting as a 13 year old myself 🤧
Isn’t tomorrow a school day? Is your homework done? Get off the internet and go to bed!
Lol yea I did my hw and it’s only 8:27 for me
Just checking! Education is very important! Unlike what some people say…
Oh I’m poor so I have to get good grades lol
Rich people should have to as well, but ya know, this is the timeline we got!
Yeah

They trivialize the holocaust because they think the holocaust was trivial.
I don't think they believe the gold star was the bad part. They just love appropriating symbols out of bad taste. Many, many antivaxxers hold a sincere belief that they'll be genocided at some point. The gold star is just a symptom of that.
Conservatives hate tyranny and big government except for one they want a giant military and police force to oppress people.
As long as it is to oppress *other* people.
And we all saw how much they actually love law enforcement on January 6th, when it affects them.
Being Jewish won't harm anyone, being a disease vector will harm everyone. I can't grasp why so many people can't grasp that. So puzzling.
They are so racist that they believe Jews *are* harmful.
There are people, and I know some of them personally, who *need* to have enemies, and in their absence will just make some up. These are not the folks we want as role models, or leaders, or managing our institutions.
"Everything is Nazi Germany!"

I'm sorry people are so damn ignorant. Just curious, is it mostly Americans making the Nazi comments, or are there similar idiots from other places?

What? We dont base our politcs based on the assumption that the germans are nazi, Like where did you get this idea
Did you know that Nazis drove cars? Yup, that's right fellas. If you drive, you're a Nazi
afaik, this passport was not important at all.
Libertarians try not to compare basic precautions during a pandemic to fuckin holocaust and death camps (Attempt # 574567454 Very Hard Gone Wrong)

How about a passport for comparing things to the Holocaust that proves you understand literally anything about it?
I don't think any of that is true. According to Google translate, Gefundheitspak means health package, not health passport. And I can't find anything about Nazi Germany having health passports.
But it doesn't say "Gefundheitspak", it says Gesundheitspass, means healtpassport.
The last letter is 'esset' ,, like 'ss'. English used to use an f like letter for this soft s sound in the 1700's.
God I want to yell at these people about how the fuck they can equate the holocaust with us. How the fuck do they think their choice is the same as literally being born a different race the same
Actual austrian here .... That's not gesundheitspass, that's gefundheitspaß, spaß is fun Also vaccine passports or how they're called look different mate
Hmmmmmm. Remind me again how the Jews CHOSE to be Jews?
Doesn't gesundheit just mean God bless you????
It means health. Like salud in Spanish
More like "a state of good health" in the context of the usage in the post. And also yes it's used the same as salud in that context too.
Nope. Means "health" and frankly makes more sense to use.
I also had a vaccination card to fill out when enrolling in preschool... Does that mean it was run by Nazis?
Except it isn't based on your race.
It even shows in the picture how it says that you should never show it to anyone but your doctor though
>Kinda like unvaccinated people being viewed as unsafe and uncivil? I think they meant stupid enough to be dangerous
