War profiteer? Not the first and absolutely not the last.
This is the reason why Russians still continue with the fighting. Because of the widespread profiteering. On the shoulders of cannon fodder.
well well well
Let’s talk more about this guy – Bahlsen, BMW and Dr. Oetker probably
Many of the major companies definitely did a lot of money during Nazi era.
You don’t ask german companies what they did from 1933-45.
I did nazi that coming.
And some people here believe voting even more right-wing will save Europe. In reality, that will give even more power to the rich to fuck over everybody else…
He also played a part in Hamburger SVs downfall, meddling in sporting decisions with disastrous results.
Sure but I mean… can you point to a billionaire that does not have a massive amount of blood on their fortune? I’m glad people are able to wake up a little and get upset when the word Nazi comes into play, but it might be time to question where the wealth from ALL billionaires come from. Nobody amasses that kind of wealth without harming or killing millions of people. Nobody.
It’s disgusting. It’s the same for the BMW heirs [https://archive.is/JeEv6](https://archive.is/JeEv6)
I hate to say this but… Let bygones be bygones. Folks from past era had a chance to run them to the ground/ nationalise their enterprise, do whatever. They did fuck all to industrialists all over Europe. Honestly, whatever. I’m not mad at their descendants. What I hate though is that some of their descendants have created various charities, NGOs etc so they can wash out their ancestors wrongs. Literally downplaying their involvement in holocaust. And for that they should be punished. There are plenty of articles, or yt videos about BWM family (or mercedes, honestly I do not remember what car company lmao). They’re split in half, one camp is washing out their past while the other half does the opposite.
Shhh guys don’t tell them where Volkswagen came from
They also operated in South Africa under apartheid whilst everyone else boycotted

[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G%C3%BCnther_Quandt](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G%C3%BCnther_Quandt) This lovely chat was one of the foremost industrialists supporting the Nazi cause. He was so good friends with high ranking Nazis and him and his wife so often over for dinner at Joseph Goebbels’ place that his wife after the divorce married Goebbels,[ with Adolf Hitler as the best man](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/44/Bundesarchiv_Bild_183-R32860%2C_Berlin%2C_Trauung_von_Joseph_und_Magda_Goebbels.jpg). You can’t make this shit up. And these are the clowns that tell the actual honest workers that they need to work harder and cut back social nets.
