    from the wiki of the poem:

    An American version delivered by a congressman in 1968 includes industrialists, who were only persecuted by the Nazis on an individual basis, and omits Communists. :agony-shivering:

    some lib on r*ddit the other day was using an article from this place as a source for uyghur genocide, with the whole line of “oh the victims of communism foundation is too nazi a source for you is it, hows this for a non-nazi source checkmate hur hur”

    and it turned out the article in question had no sources, but it did have a whole personal sob story repeated uncritically (with sad pictures) from rushan abbas, the lady who did the famous ama on reddit and it turned out she just happened to be a cia spook who worked at guantanamo

    anyway im sure its just a coincidence
