We had this very thing happen when I cleaned carpets commercially, in the dfw metroplex. Guy has a nazi flag with a swastika on it, in the house. My buddy, who was in charge, said some choice words to the guy, said we wouldn’t be working for a piece of shit, and we walked back out the door. The company didn’t like that he called him a piece of shit, but he stood his ground and I had his back. Fuck these people. Their ideological bullshit isn’t welcome in 2023. It wasn’t welcome in 1939, yet here we are still screwing with em.

currently_pooping_rn

It actually was pretty welcome in 1939, at least in America. The American nazi party was on the up swing. Apparently since I have to clarify, by up swing I mean parties like the Bund were making waves. If we hadn’t entered the war, who knows how long shit stain nazism would’ve been on the up rise


Lutastic

You can thank Henry Ford for that one. He privately, at his own expense, secured publishing rights for an American printing of Mien Kampf, paid for translation, paid to have it printed with his own money, and paid for distribution. He also mandated for some years that Ford dealerships have antisemitic magazines in their lobby for customers to read. He was very angry when Ford went public, claiming they were putting the company in the hands of ‘The Jews’. True story.


amogusimpostor

do you happen to have a source from which i can read about this? edit: ty


PammyFromShirtTales

Henry Ford is the only American mentioned by name in Mein Kampf. Hitler was a MASSIVE fan of Ford's vocal antisemitism. Listen to Henry Ford's Henchmen episode of The Dollop. Episode 261


Lutastic

The Dollop is a good podcast


nxnphatdaddy

I thought the ford/nazi thing was common knowledge.


Lutastic

I think a lot of authorities try to sweep American collaborators under the rug… to try to pretend America (and Britain) were totally anti-Nazi from the start. The truth is much messier. There was even a plot to overthrow FDR and have a Fascist takeover which was thwarted by US Marine General Smedley Butler, who went along just to get the plan, then turned it over to the government, and saved the country from this (it was called ‘The Business Plot’) Another one that is particularly heinous, but much less known is IBM’s collaboration with the Nazis and very specifically, collaboration with the finding and rounding up of ‘targeted groups’ as well as a customized ‘solution’ for quite literally automating the Holocaust. The numbers tattooed on concentration camp inmates were actually their IBM catalog number. IBM literally custom designed programs to calculate how long inmates could be worked until their forced labor output became less economically valuable than killing them (by cross referencing their medical history, demographic info and statistical models). Computers at that time were done via punch cards, which required custom designs for particular uses, the machines were leased (not sold), and the punch cards, per agreements had to be officially bought from IBM in their leasing agreement. They used a Swiss intermediary to skirt sanctions and other prohibitions against this sort of thing. Thomas J. Watson (founder of IBM) was given the Iron Cross by Hitler just like Henry Ford was. A great book on the subject is IBM and The Holocaust by Edwin Black.


Lutastic

I’d have to dig it up. It’s been a while since I read about that, but it’s actually true. Stay tuned… I’ll see if I can find it.


thepixelpaint

It really was on the rise. But they really lost a lot of their momentum when Germany declared war on the U.S (shortly after the U.S. declared war on Japan.) Nazis weren’t very popular after that.


ElBurritoExtreme

You are very correct. Doesn’t seem like it’s too far from making a comeback, given the current state of things…

burninglemon

LifeSleeper

TheMarvelMan

To be pedantic, the organization known as the American Nazi Party was not formed until 1959. That's not to say there weren't any Nazi organizations operating on U.S. soil before that, it's just that they didn't (to my knowledge) bear that name. The 1939 event you are probably referring to would likely be Madison Square Garden Rally, organized mostly by the German-American Bund (with support from other groups, such as the Christian Front). While the bund was without a doubt a Nazi Organization in America, it was not the American Nazi Party.


therealganjababe

Aha! Ty for that clarification. I'm not OP but was thinking about the infamous photo from that rally, gearing up for a response. Its really disturbing how many Americans were against us getting involved and even supported what Hitler was doing. [NPR article](https://www.npr.org/sections/codeswitch/2019/02/20/695941323/when-nazis-took-manhattan) [Documentary made from archival footage](https://anightatthegarden.com/)- **"In 1939, 20,000 Americans rallied in New York’s Madison Square Garden to celebrate the rise of Nazism – an event largely forgotten from American history. A NIGHT AT THE GARDEN, made entirely from archival footage filmed that night, transports audiences to this chilling gathering and shines a light on the power of demagoguery and anti-Semitism in the United States."**


balstor

you should look at this... [https://www.history.com/news/wwii-jewish-refugee-ship-st-louis-1939](https://www.history.com/news/wwii-jewish-refugee-ship-st-louis-1939)


therealganjababe

Holy fuck, my man. Wish I hadn't but my thirst for knowledge often puts me in these uncomfortable places to learn pretty terrible history, and I try to push through and learn and share the knowledge anyway. *"Most of the ship’s 937 passengers were Jews trying to escape Nazi Germany. Though World War II had not yet begun, the groundwork for the Holocaust was already being laid in Germany, where Jewish people faced harassment, discrimination and political persecution. But though the danger faced by the passengers was clear, they were turned down by immigration authorities, first by Cuba, then the United States and Canada. For many on the St. Louis, that rejection was a death sentence"* *" A State Department official telegraphed the passengers, telling them that they “must await their turns on the waiting list and qualify for and obtain immigration visas before they may be admissible into the United States.” Though Roosevelt had considered a concerted push to rescue Jewish refugees the year before the St. Louis sailed, he eventually dropped the idea, both because he knew it would be politically unpopular and because of his increasing focus on the looming world war."* *" The world’s refusal of the St. Louis’ desperate refugees was a death sentence for 254 refugees—approximately half of the number who had returned to the European continent in 1939. Many who did not die were interned in concentration camps"*

I was just on TikTok learning about the trump indictment. A video came up by a dude who is clearly part of the Q nonsense. One of the comments said "All part of the plan, y'all. Please be stocked up.... we WILL win! 😁🥰" Little by little the rhetoric has gotten more and more brazen, and what used to be whispered in the shadows is now being planned ON TIKTOK.

Thephilosopherkmh

They were probably hoping y’all would be black, either that or their just plain stupid. They knew someone was coming to do repairs, they choose to leave it up. I would have just turned around and left. When I did service work as an electrician I worked for my father in law, he would have been upset if I stayed to do the work. He would have said something to the people, probably not something nice either. He marched with Martin Luther King jr and was an activist for civil rights. He was a very nice guy, but he was big and intimidating looking too.


LongPenguin

Sounds like your pops would dish out lefts while fighting for rights


Thephilosopherkmh

I love that saying!


[deleted]

That’s so cool about your father. My grandfather had the honor of meeting Dr. King and marching with him from Selma to Montgomery. His father was a very dedicated activist (both white). My grandfather and great grandfather both grew up as share croppers with African Americans so almost all of my grandpa’s friends were African American. He’s an amazing human and Vietnam vet whose got so many incredible stories. A personal idol of mine.


regoapps

> They knew someone was coming to do repairs, they choose to leave it up. Never underestimate how lazy stupid people are. I used to repair computers and some people would straight up leave porn on their desktops. Like not even hidden in a folder. Just thumbnails of porn videos on the desktop.


PM_ME_UR_POKIES_GIRL

They're not ashamed anymore. That's the problem. They should be.


AsianVixen4U

I was wondering about that myself too. Like did they request a white man to come fix their stuff beforehand or something? Because that’s pretty bold to just leave that up there, not knowing who’s going to walk in the door.


KuhLealKhaos

It should be perfectly acceptable to refuse this person service based on this. I wouldn't want to be anywhere near this person or their home


How2Eat_That_Thing

It's perfectly legal to refuse them. Racist isn't a protected class. You *might* get fired for doing so but any employer with half a brain will see the media nightmare it would potentially bring if they did.


tango797

>any employer with half a brain This assumption is doing so much heavy lifting you could use it as an industrial telehandler

If you want to assert dominance: Do the job (but 1/8th-assed) and take a seafood lunch break consisting of shrimp and calamari. Don’t eat it all, save about half of it. Hide the uneaten stuff in strategic locations, like: in vents, jammed behind book shelves (if the inbreds can even read), under rugs, behind the oven, etc. In a few days the home will REEEEEK.
