    As someone who spontaneously decided to study history / political science instead of physics, although I have been preparing to be a physicist the entire time, I can proudly say: At least I am happy. I spend most of my time doing fun and fulfilling things, instead of showing up at uni at 8 in the morning and arriving home at 8 in the evening just to work on homework. All my friends went into mint and they are stressed, don’t have time to do anything and just seem the worst i have ever seen them.

    A lot of the German wars in Europe I can think of right now where actually fought because of poorly drawn borders or were at least motivated largely by borders. Including French German wars. The Elsass-Lothringen dispute has always been extremely important for french-german relations.










  • Holy shit shut up. You know what the initial tweet was supposed to mean. If there where to be literally no food in Gaza then Palestinians would all be dead before they could reproduce.

    And again in what way would you say that the prisoners were “legally” detained. I hope you are aware that almost all camps were concentration camps and not eradication camps. All my sources exept for ausschwitz are concentration camps. Do you think that people were not killed in concentration camps?

    It may be “historically false” to claim that no food physically existed in and around any concentration camp, but it is reasonable to assume that the average person understands the meaning behind “there was no food”.


  • Ahm no actually. The prisinors had a calorie intake of about 800 calories per day (some sources claim 1100 to 1300 calories but that doesn’t fit my narrative) while working the entire day. Theft was a regular occurrence. So sometimes you would have even less than that.

    A common result of that was diarrhoea. Because sanitary facilities were usually only added after years the prisoners slept in diarrhoea drenched beds. The medical “care” wich was also often added only very late and according to the buchenwalde memorial “only because of extreme pressure” were used as an opportunity to kill prisoners by injection.

    Most camp prisoners were not what I would call criminals. The common categorisation charts list political enemies, Jews, homosexuals (most of the time only male homosexuals), jehovas witnesses and Asocials (people that did not work).

    Unfortunately I don’t know anything specific about the drinking water situation, but the memorial buchenwalde as well as mittelwek-dora and ausschwitz state that water was sparse.

    You could have picked any example of concentration camps to make your pointless argument, but you chose to talk about the nastiest crime in human history.
