Trivialization of the Holocaust has reached new lows. By: Jewish Press News Briefs Published: May 12th, 2014 printNazi Drinking Game
A group of Florida teenagers have devised a local version of the popular college beer pong drinking game. But in contrast to the traditional contest in which two teams gather on opposite sites of a table and try to bounce a ping pong ball into a plastic cup filled with booze, the Florida version has a charming new twist: The groups divide into teams of “Jews” and “Nazis.”
According to an image posted on the Imgur website, “The Nazis start the game off with “blitzkreig”, with each “Aryan” player shooting freely into the “Jewish” cups until one misses. Jews are allowed to designate an “Anne Frank Cup” that can be removed from the table and hidden anywhere in the room. To balance out that unfair advantage, the Nazi team has the right to call “Auschwitz,” meaning one Jewish player is “selected” to sit out.
“Also, throughout the game you are supposed to talk a lot of **** and say as many racist things as possible to make it more enjoyable,” according to the website.
Because US college campuses clearly aren’t antisemitic enough as it is.

Stupid adolescent stuff, nothing more. I look forward to any examples of ===vs---- games you couldn't play. Full disclosure, I played cowboys and Indians as a child. No one gave me beer.
I thought I was all through being surprised by the banality of depravity.
Whatever college that is, I would *never* send my kids there or grandkids there.
Institutions of higher learning. /s
Further proof that Chef, from South Park, was right when he said, “There’s a time and a place for everything, and it’s called, ‘College’”
This has all the makings of a game for the Democrat convention.
Jew-hatred
&
Authoritarianism
Don’t forget the Gay-stapo. Ernst Röhm is alive and well.
Do they call it Juden Raus?
Juden Raus (“Jews out”) is a Cross and Circle-style game published in Germany by Günther & Co. in 1936, just one year after the Nuremberg Laws were put into effect. The game was advertised as “entertaining, instructive and solidly constructed.” The game’s equipment includes a pair of dice, a game board, and several game piece figurines with large pointed hats meant to represent Jews.
Players take turns rolling the dice and moving their “Jews” across the map toward “collection points” outside the city walls for deportation to Mandate Palestine. Written on the game board, it says “If you manage to see off 6 Jews, you’ve won a clear victory!”
Juden Raus was not an official Nazi propaganda effort but an unsuccessful commercial product. The game was criticized by an SS journal that felt it trivialized anti-Semitic policies.
Informative post, as usual, CC. Wow.
Well, it was predicted long ago that this sort of thing would happen once the distance of time between WWII and “the future” was sufficient...given the generally idiotic nature of humanity, this was not exactly a bold prediction.
Thanks for the info. On my BB, now, but will view on the ‘puter before bed.
Growing up in New York in the 1950’s I knew lots of refugees from Europe, including a lot of folks who lost much of their families. I had a Jewish girlfriend. Her family, and most of her friends’ families had lost members in Europe, some in Israel in 1967 and 1973. In the Army our Roman Catholic chaplain was a local German priest who spend the war in Dachau for opposition to the Nazis. (The bravest man I ever knew.) I cannot find the words to express my outrage and disgust at this.
Yeah, stupid kid stuff, that’s my reaction, sort of. They could be doing worse. I’ll ping you to an article I’ll post in a bit about the significance of the things we (our culture, we are part of it) trivialize. Our culture can’t be excused as college kid mentality.
It does show how insidious fascism is and why conservative fears about what goes on in the schools is well founded.
After all, Hitler started out targeting the greedy capitalist bankers before really just saying the Jews.
Like the nazi commissioned movie “Titanic” where the “bankers” built the ship, dumped their stock to cause other to do the same, then pushed the ship beyond her limits with a plan to buy the cheap stocks back right before the ship arrived well ahead of time.
No one here would call you or SJackson fascist. It’s not as if you’re banned from showing it, but, because of the offensive original nature and purpose of it, you should be discreet enough to show it only with some explanation as to historical context. Just a matter of civil sensibility, NOT government censorship.
