Trump’s reverent second Time MOTY cover

Hitler was Time's MOTY on January 2 1939.

I didn't even know this rag was still around.

Agreed, R2. However, it does make for a good backup in case one runs out of Wee Wee pads.

Donald will order a life size version of this cover for the lobby in Maralogo.

Wrong! I’m back, still a bitch and now I’m anti-weed.

Yes of course, the fact that more Americans chose an admitted finger-rapist and insurrectionist is actually Joe Biden’s fault. I heard he also caused that recent volcanic eruption.

Trumps election has nothing to do with Fox News, that sewer pipe of propaganda, at all. It’s entirely Biden.

Cancelled my subscription this morning.

Sure, Hitler was Man of the year in 1939, but the world was a different place then.

This was obviously done as a cash grab for a dying print media relic.

MAGA idiots will buy multiple copies. One to "read," one to make into a t-shirt on their Cricut machines, one to frame for the dining room, and one to pass on to the grandchildren because it will be valuable some day.

I've subscribed for many years. I'm done.

This was either paid for or some maga ass with Time made the decision to plaster filth on their front cover. At least he can remove the fake one from his walls now.

[quote]I’m glad the Democrats are now seeing the world Joe Biden has created by refusing to step down in time.

Nobody wanted Joe Biden back in 2020. He was losing the primary race until Clyburn interfered.

Nobody wanted Harris then either. She had to drop out in 2019 before any votes were cast because she was doing so badly.

The primary process has to be reformed so that the lowest-polling candidates can't become the eventual nominees.

Thanks Biden!

And the rich Corporate Democrats will ride this out from the safety of their own fourth home.

[quote] Yes of course, the fact that more Americans chose an admitted finger-rapist and insurrectionist is actually Joe Biden’s fault.

Yes.

The drooling cretins who voted the orange thing are responsible for his election.

Relax, pearl clutchers. Whoever wins a presidential election is ALWAYS Person of the Year.

Nobody under 40 cares.

I'm shocked there is a living breathing person subscribed to TIME. (Up to today.) Did you receive a paper edition? In the mail box? The mind boggles.

Thanks Marc Benioff/Salesforce-grateful for your new attitude ‘’We must support the new president’’

Took a break from news but upon returning it’s always worse than Imagined. Better to stay tuned-in.

It’s true Biden and friend’s contributed to Dump win but bitching isn’t going to help much. What can the average dude do? Nothing?

Trump looked happier and more pleased ringing the NYSE bell today than he did even winning the election. He really enjoyed it.

[quote] Sure, Hitler was Man of the year in 1939, but the world was a different place then.

Yeah, in 1939 Germany was the enemy. Today it is Amerikkka.

Not quite, r22. Don't put today's values on yesterday's approach. In 1939, Germany was seen as something to be appeased as they started taking over parts of Europe and the Russians were in cahoots with them. There were sizable Nazi movements in the UK and the US. Deeply anti-semitic tropes were far, far, far more accepted then than now, with the horrors of the Holocaust were really only fully, exhaustively revealed in the 60's. This is why Albert Speer didn't hang and got away with his "good Nazi" act until he died, and prosecutions weren't nearly as aggressive as we thought and last to this day. There was controversy about Hitler, but he and his beliefs were far more accepted then than most believe. It took a long time for the world to fully take in how bad it was.

Meanwhile, the billionares and Republicans are laughing all the way to the bank with the coming tax cuts, consolidation of even more power in fewer hands and joy that enough Americans were conned into supporting a felon with no policies other than serving him and his grift. The electorate had their opportunity to save democracy and sane governance, but the lure of strongman rule, corruption, hate and retribution was just too hard to resist. Bitch about Democrats and Joe Biden all you want instead of the real culprits - your neighbors, friends and family members who actually voted for Trump and the MAGA takeover. This is what they wanted and that is the country they're about to get.

R24, thank you.

You just can't handle that the corporate Democrats are just as culpable. And there will be no way out of this until you do. Americans don't get class dynamics at all.

No problem. Thank you, R25.

Thanks for showing as all how much you enjoy being self-righteous, but woefully ineffective. This is why Democrats lost.

"Deeply anti-semitic tropes were far, far, far more accepted then than now, with the horrors of the Holocaust were really only fully, exhaustively revealed in the 60's."

This is such complete and total revisionist horseshit.

Go into the archives of any major American newspaper. In the mid 1930's, there were reports of brutal conditions in Germany concentration camps like Dauchau. Reports of German political prisoners who served their time and returned home battered and bloodied were commonplace. After Krystallnacht, even more reports of torture and brutality filtered out to American newspapers.

When the Russians liberated Auschwitz in January of 1945, the horror stories in the death camps in Poland starting appearing in US Newspapers.

And when American soldiers liberated Buchenwald in 1945, the atrocities committed there carried by wire service stories to every US newspaper the very next day and continued as one camp after the other was liberated. The American soldiers who liberated the camps repeated the tales of what they saw to their family and friends when they got back home. Joseph Pulitzer of newspaper fame, went to several concentration camp sites and sent home dispatches about conditions in these camps and what went on in these camps prior to being liberated, to be printed in the next day's editions.

Then came the Nuremburg and other war trials, excerpts of which were broadcast on American radio stations throughout the late 1940s.

Again, just go the archives of any major American newspaper, enter key words like Dachau, Auschwitz, Buchenwald and key dates between 1935 and 1945 and you'll get a plethora of hits. Before the end of the 1940s, most Americans were all too familiar with what when on in these camps, both regular concentration camps in Germany and Austria and the death camps in Poland.

The Allies largely stopped prosecuting Nazis after the start of the Cold War, believing their mission was complete. This was a mistake, as many Nazis remained unpunished. They left the pursuit of some high-profile Nazis like Eichmann to Israel, while others, like Klaus Barbie, were even employed by Western intelligence agencies.

The Allies turned a blind eye to the "ratlines," escape routes that allowed Barbie and numerous Nazis to flee Europe. They also released prominent figures like Albert Speer, who was later found to have knowingly used slave labor from concentration camps to arm the German army during its invasion of Russia. Speer was allowed to rehabilitate his image, write books, and give interviews. Many members of the old German aristocracy, who often had ties to the Nazi regime, escaped justice altogether.

And it's fucking unbelievable that this place doesn't get that even the repentant Germans considered the gay victims of the holocaust criminals and not worth mentioning until around 25 years ago.

Franco-German journalist Beate Klarsfeld demonstrated German Chachellor Kurt GEorg Kiesinger's close connections to Ribbentrop and Joseph Goebbels, the head of Nazi Germany's Propaganda Ministry.[6] She also asserted that Kiesinger had been chiefly responsible for the contents of German international broadcasts which included anti-Semitic and war propaganda, and had collaborated closely with SS functionaries Gerhard Rühle [de] and Franz Alfred Six. The latter was responsible for mass murders in Nazi-occupied Eastern Europe and was tried as a war criminal in the Einsatzgruppen Trial at Nuremberg. Even after becoming aware of the extermination of the Jews, Kiesinger had continued to produce anti-Semitic propaganda.[7] These allegations were based in part on documents that Albert Norden published about the culprits of war and Nazi crimes.[8]

And finally, here's further proof that they did the pictures, did Nuremberg, and just left it:

The author Malcolm Gladwell has suggested that the airing of the miniseries was a tipping point for wider public awareness, discussion, and acknowledgement of the importance of The Holocaust. Gladwell stated that shortly after the series was released, North America went from having a single museum on the subject, to Holocaust Museums springing up "by the hundreds" around the world.[19]

We're going to see that face everywhere for the next four years. What a nightmare.

In WWII the Germans lost, but fascism won.
