Really? It wasn't just red triangles but also pink ones for gay people, brown for Roma, etc. Legolas Send a noteboard - 29/07/2020 06:01:32 PM

View original postSince I've been a small child I've had meetings with holocaust survivors every year. I've been to museums in Berlin and Jerusalem. I've even seen Indiana Jones. But I don't recall these triangles ever being mentioned. Doesn't mean they were not used but there is nothing especially Nazi about them. Red triangles are used as a warning sign on the road all the time in every country.

See link for an overview. Surely the museums you were in also covered the non-Jewish concentration camp prisoners? And anyway, from what I understand, Jewish people who also fell into one of those other categories would've had a combination badge.

We have a 1001 problems and this is what you care about? A presidential candidate using hyperbole? Roland00 - 23/07/2020 06:10:44 PM 167 Views
Joe Biden is the one who called Obama the first "clean and articulate" black candidate, right? *NM* Tom - 23/07/2020 09:21:34 PM 118 Views

I think if this were Trump's campaign first instance of "accidental anti-Semitism", I could believe The Shrike - 30/07/2020 01:10:04 PM 188 Views
Agreed, actually. I don't think Trump is cognizant enough of people other than himself Ghavrel - 01/08/2020 12:29:19 AM 208 Views
