I am very much in agreement with her, and I have the book. @hcrichardson.bsky.social

If there is ever another Democratic Administration, all levels of the chain of command must be held accountable for these crimes.

Two other crew members received prison sentences: Hans Lenz a life sentence (released in 1952) and Wolfgang Schwender 15 years (released in 1951).

So, yeah, killing survivors after sinking their ship is 100% against the law.

Our military leaders need the reminder of lawful orders.

Heinz-Wilhelm Eck, the commander, was found guilty and executed by firing squad in November 1945.

August Hoffmann, the second-in-command, was also sentenced to death and executed.

Dr. Weisspfennig was condemned for using a weapon in contravention of the Geneva Conventions and also executed.

In 1944, after sinking the Greek steamer Peleus in the South Atlantic, U-852 machine-gunned and use hand grenades on the floating wreckage—and the survivors clinging to it—in an attempt to destroy all evidence of the sinking and prevent Allied reconnaissance from finding the U-boat.

My wife: "What's is it about cows and oil that makes people mean, crazy, and stupid?"

When the AI crash happens, ask how the economy is working out for them.

Ah. I was wondering if it was this, or some Trumpy / Hegsethy, "They kicked all the queers out and women have to make us sammiches" baloney.

Thanks!

That's a lot. Why would they do this?

Refusing to humor or normalize fascists does not make you a bad person. Quite the opposite.

"I know you converted to Judaism, and we voted for Hitler, and you're fleeing the country, but why can't you put politics aside?"

Bitch, they want us dead and we're Refugees in all but name.

They made it clear that on their deathbeds, they'd rather have Fox News on the TV playing Trump clips than family by their side.

Who am I not to honor their explicit wishes.

My brother, bless him, is sick of it too. He's trying to get his employer to move him to reassign him to a Canadian branch for a lot of personal reasons.

They've opted into the "No one attends my funeral but the priest" option, because they've made it clear they will never recant.

Everything I told them would happen, has happened. But, they see what we are enduring as just the price for making America great again.

Oh, and trans people did a lot of bad things, so we had it coming.

Which is EXACTLY how average Germans justified the Holocaust post-WWII

They made it clear that having that decompensating orange shitgibbon as President again was more important to them than ever seeing me or their three grandchildren again.

Ok, your wish has been granted. I can see where your priorities were: and they weren't us.

This is on them, not me.

This is inadvertently hilarious AND just so Canadian.

FWIW: my family just moved back to VI: wife and children are Canadian, I'm immigrating.

Me too. Be ready to go: when it really starts coming apart there won't be a lot of warning, and state level Democrats won't put up any real resistance.
