We are not so different.

SS celebrating a vacation 20 miles from Birkenau.

I, like you, am an upstanding citizen. I pay my taxes (reluctantly), I am law abiding (stole candy bars when I was 14), and I do not litter. I try to get up every day and do good onto the world. No doubt you are in a similar position to me, I can not imagine that you would do evil deeds, or pour evil into the world.

What if I told you the line between you and a Nazi wasn’t so unconceivably wide? What if I told you that if you lived in Germany in 1933, you’d be a Nazi within a couple of months? You’d probably shudder at the very thought of it, and throw angry accusations in my direction. “How dare you” you’d scream “Me, killing Jews? that is despicable”. Of course you wouldn’t shout to loudly now would you, don’t want to disturb the neighbours now do we?

The truth is, its not. The truth is, we are so very close to them it is almost unbearable.

Let me tell you a story of two men, one was a clerk of types, the other a teacher. Both men grew up in German through the first world war, they had careers, families and friends.

They didn’t knew each other yet, but they both lived rather similar lives. One married young, the other a little older, one had two children the other had four.

Either way when the economic depression came to Germany, and starvation and poverty ripped the land apart, both felt the strain on their families.

Then came Adolf Hitler, the mouth piece of the people, a charismatic man who had seen the horrors of war. He wanted to take this broken country and rebuild it, brick by brick.

Both men were no longer fit for purpose. Older than fighting age, and worn away by years of body mechanical issues. They both signed up to serve in another way. The German Police force.

They met for the first time in training camp, and were inseparable. They both loved literature, specifically French. They both had the opportunity to walk in the Alps when they were younger, they’d trade tales of it over lunch. They found a brotherhood.

Their job was simple, find Jewish people, put them on trains and send them away. They didn’t know where, or care all that much neither. They were contributing to the national effort, and to rebuilding Germany.

Weeks, turned into months, months into years. Then, in September 1939, Hitler invaded Poland. They and their fellow police men were soon sent out to Poland to gather up more Jews and once again ship them off on trains.

Within two months, these men, a teacher and a clerk were shooting pregnant women in the back of the heads in fields.

Pulling mothers from their babies and gunning them down like animals.

One of them men conducted an interview years later. When asked about the killings he’d describe exactly how they did it.

This is not an extract from the interview, this is an interpretation from what I remember reading:

“Well I’d shoot the baby, and he’d shoot the mother. I always made sure he shot her first, and then I’d shoot the kid. I always told myself that I was doing the kid a justice, how can a baby live in the world without its mother…

“I think he always shot the mother to save her seeing me shoot her child.”

A couple of months ago I exposed a Neo-Nazi group in Manchester (See article Here). I infiltrated their group chats and watched. Random men and women from across the North West of England logged into the chatrooms and spouted violent, conspiracy madness for weeks on end.

Just over a week ago, a Jihadi stabbed members of the Jewish community outside a synagogue in Manchester (Read more Here).

Hate crimes are higher than they ever have been. Tell Mama and other anti-hate groups across the country are fearful for the future.

And let’s address the elephant in the room… Muslims. Tommy Robinson, and other groups have targeted Muslims and their presence in the United Kingdom, blaming them for the downfall of our country.

All a while, Islamic extremists are organising attacks across the West, and invading the UK on small boats.

Meanwhile Kier Starmer, our leader, is doing very little to douse the flames.

We live in scary times, ladies and gentlemen. A snowball has gathered at the top of a hill and has been pushed by the winds of illegal immigration, economic instability and poor leadership and I do not believe it will slow down any time soon.

Remember who you are, remember your moral compass and do not let it become eroded. Our country has been compromised, and we must act to prevent the snowball from gathering any more speed, while also subduing the corruption from within.
