@damaxae93 back in the 1940s every german citizen – EVERY ONE OF THEM- knew what was going on and every single last male german that was between the age of 18 and 30 was directly and or indirectly involved and or responsible for crimes to hanus to mention here, every german grand father and many german fathers are fucking murderers, thieves and liars.
