What is the significance of the graves looking more like triangles than crosses?

[@Mrtweet81]

It’s the Waffen SS, not Woffen SS…

[@Mrtweet81]

@@leannageyer943 As with all symbols, and crosses in particular, the meaning is whatever it means to you. For example, the triangle formed by the roof and the crossbar could be seen as reference to the Holy Trinity. Alternatively it could be viewed as a symbolic enclosure, representing the tomb of the Resurrection, or perhaps the outline of a church. A common interpretation is more pragmatic; a roof, actual or symbolic, to protect the cross from snow and rain. It's easy to understand why Christians want to protect an image of the Cross, just as comfort is gained from remembering that the Cross itself offers protection for us all.

But if a kid under ten was asked about the camp he would cheerily say "that's where they kill jews isn't it". Tragically on the few occasions German civilians strongly protested in even numbers of a few thousand the Nazi regime caved,releasing arrested jews and not punishing the protesters.

Is there anything good to say about Germans?..

[@ericbruce6984]

There is nothing here that is difficult to hear or watch. Consider the “difficulty” of being one of the Reichs victims and you come to conclusion that we should hear and see more of this so that no one has to go through that “difficult” experience ever again.

One of the wildest things I have seen is the sheer look of no remorse or guilt in the faces of these people after served justice for their crimes

[@someguy6212]

Maybe there is a reason they felt no guilt.

[@einzeln-und-frei]

Actually according to the "mental world" of these men - they were not at all criminals. And from a pure legal point of view - many of these deeds were not even crimes because the state did not prohibit such deeds. "Nulla poena sine lege!". My personal opinion is that it was ok to punish them... even though it was not legal to do so - at least in many cases. But actually the much bigger scandal is that most of the Nazis sentenced to prison in Landsberg - were pardoned already in the early 1950ies... Actually those who were executed just had some kind of "bad luck". Because others who committed the same kind of deeds - were pardoned soon after...

[@sluxi]

entirely false and harmful narrative. those on the winning side may end up not being punished as often but the crimes for which there is justice did occur. The nazis certainly committed a huge amount of war crimes and crimes against humanity. The western allies certainly did not do anything as heinous.

Interestingly of course when the ICC was set up in 1998 war crimes jurisdiction proceeding were specifically limited to the khmer rouge period at the insistence of the United States. Many attempts to prosecute and sue former US Secretary of state henry kissinger for warcrimed has always failed due to his mythos in the US political system. His policies led to the overthrow of democratically elected governments, the support of oppressive dictatorships, the bombing of countries, the earnestness of famines to dismantle governments not in US favour. And hes living comfortably in a retirement home which his millions of victims never got to enjoy. Not every war criminal is a war criminal depending on where your position is in the power train...

My Grandfather was drafted in to the Wehrmacht. Until then he was a decent builder. Because of his building skills he was made a Pion or Engineer. He was also part Gypsy and had several Jewish friends. He was a man of peace. Because of Hitler and leadership of the most notorious NAZI's, I never met my grandfather. He died on Christmas day 1943. I don't know if I hate Hitler, maybe to do so would be a waste of my time. But there is no doubt this movement of NAZI Germany ensured the deaths of probably 40 million or more people. How I wish they would have let Hitler be an artist in Austria. They rejected him, and in his state of rejection and unemployment, he helped form the Holocaust that brought death and misery on so many persons and families. God bless you, love everyone. Never try to second guess someone who is different than you. Accept them as persons worthy of life and liberty. I have a hard time getting my head around deliberately killed in a system of camps.

Heavy video, I'm sure it's likely to be demonetized. But fantastic that you got yet another hit video! The biggest pattern I notice when I look at your most popular videos is the boldness of the imagery in the thumbnail. Eg, this video, "Burro Schmidt", "Phantom Lake" and "Dead Man's Hole" all have very clear thumbnail images with clear and standout words in the thumbnail. And the title of the videos are all good clickbait too. Keep up the great video thumbnails and I think you'll continue to increase your hit ratio!
