re: #653 Skip Intro
Actually, they went after the leftists first. That’s what Dachau was originally built for; a concentration camp for political prisoners. Later on, of course, it’s role was expanded, but in the beginning of Nazi rule in 1933 the first prisoners were the communists and members of the Social Democratic Party of Germany.
That’s right. I had forgotten about that. Auschwitz too was first built for Polish political prisoners. Really anyone who thinks the Nazis were lefties needs to look at who their main opponents were and like wise who was supporting the Nazis.
