This horror might not have happened if Germany had a free and independent press at the time. But the German press in 1939 was, of course, nothing more than a propaganda arm of the state.
We are in much the same situation today. And yes, American mainstream media, I’m talking about you.
Most of our MSM is proud to be a participant in the "situation," as you put it. As was — I'm sure — the German media back in the 1930s.
Of course, they had a more compelling excuse back then: those who told the truth simply disappeared, in the Nazi program of Nacht und Nebel, never to be seen again. Our "jounalists" simply don't get invited to the cool partiesm and get banned from Facebook and Twitter. At least for now.
This^^^media IS a propaganda arm of rat ideology…
