You obviously didn't understand what I said, so let me spell it out for you. I said that it would be UNDERSTANDABLE for a skinhead to do that because that is something I would EXPECT a skinhead to do but does not make it ACCEPTABLE for a skinhead to do so, I just can't understand why a Jew would do something like this in that Museum. So let me rephrase my comment. I would expect a skinhead to do something like that to disgrace the 12million dead, but I would never in a thousand years expect a Jew to do this weather he knew he was doing it or not. Like I said, watch those movies, have respect.
I understood what you said just fine, thanks. i was being sarcastic. And I don't need history lessons from you either; this Holocaust has been drilled into my head since I became aware I was Jewish.
so ? maybe a girl was missing ... or she stole something at the museum... and he pointed at her to let them know where she was ... you know "he fingered her".
So, I am the fingered girl in question, and I'd have to say, the reaction to this little incident is a bit harsher than I had anticipated. I'm not Christian, or German (though I speak the language fairly well, if I may say). I'm actually converting to Judaism, would you believe it? (And I'm sure some of you won't) I go to shul regularly, I love Israel, and have been involved in Israel advocacy for years. And I'm also a nice, non-malicious person in general. So, I really hate to shatter your image of me as a slutty antisemite, but those are the facts. When Royal Blue and I decided to get it on, it was the result of several months of anticipation. We're nice people, with dark senses of humor. We wanted to do something naughty and inappropriate, and the fact that I had to go to the museum for research purposes provided a perfect opportunity to do just that. That's all there is to it. bigT, you called me "Mary Jane rotten crotch". What would your mother, or better yet, all your relatives who died in the Holocaust, say about that? Really, is that any way to talk about a woman you know absolutely nothing about? And what about your little photo? Last I heard, Communists were responsible for the deaths of many millions as well. And here you are, posing with a bust of Lenin and dressing up as a glorious revolutionary. Are you trying to dishonor those who starved from the famine in the Ukraine or died in the gulags? Because that's like, really fucked up. Or were you being, I dunno, sarcastic?
So sie kann verstehen, meine reaction war korrekt Anbetracht was Sie getan haben. Sie entheiligten das Denkmal zu meinen relitaves und politische Kameraden, für das sollten Sie beschämt sein. Ihre "dunkle Stimmung" ist nicht so Spaß zu mir, so entschuldigen Sie mich für das Ausdrücken mein Gefühlen. Es tut mir leid für mein schlechte Deutsch, Ich habe nur zwei Jahre. Maybe next time you should stick to research instead of fornicating there. You want to feel naughty and dirty go somewhere else, but not there, not where my and millions of other people's relatives are remembered. By the time I got done with that museum I was crying my heart out, and then you have the nerve to do that. I just can't believe it. I'm not sure what they'd say about me calling you a "Mary Jane Rotten Crotch" (which I apologize for now, I shouldn't have been so insensitive but this subject gets me very angry), but I do know what they would say about you and your little escapade. If you really must know, I consider Marxism-Leninism my political philosophy. Yes, I am completely aware that some of the worst crimes in history (in fact far worse than the holocaust) were committed by people who called themselves Communists. Does that mean they were Communists? Absolutely not. I am a follower of Lenin (hence the bust), the massacres by the "Communists" you mentioned were that carried out on most notably the order of Stalin, and Mao, both of whom after consolidating power liquidated the ENTIRE population of what you might call the "real" revolutionaries. For example, by the end of Stalin's reign the entire Central Committee of 1917 was dead. Also the famine in the Ukraine was Stalin's fault, due to his lack of consideration for the Ukrainian people, and his FORCED collectivization program. So, Ich bin sicher, daß die Millionen der Toter Ihre Stimmung lustig finden würden. Lassen Sie mich so wieder sagen, bitte haben sie respektvollere folgende Zeit. I'm sorry I even got involved with this, I just couldn't sit back and not say anything, not after who I've talked to, and what I've seen in that museum and in original Allied footage of liberated camps.
Would it make you feel better if we had done it in the Indian Museum (assuming you're not part Cherokee), or in front of the Pieta (assuming you don't accept Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior)? We were being naughty, end of story. If your relatives were watching, I'm sure they were happier at the thought that the Shoah didn't make the Jews sad forever than seeing you crying. P.S. Oh yeah, the old 'Stalinism without Stalin' or 'Maoism without Mao' copout. Communism is not a Platonic ideal; it's what people make of it.
I actually am part Cherokee (as well as everyone else in Alabama), but the fact remains, you didn't do it in those places, you did it in the Holocaust museum, you affect my personal history, and the personal history of many people I know, so you affect ME. Had you done it in front or in those places, no I probably wouldn't have said anything. You are so ignorant. Imagine what would be happening to you, your Girlfriend, and I if we lived in Nazi Germany or in the lands they conquered. We would all be working in a Slave labor camp, and probably die from too much work with only 200 calories a day provided you have teeth to eat with, that being after everyone you knew was dead or in the same situation as you. I don't think my relatives were watching because I am an Atheist and I don't believe in an afterlife. I do however know the difference between right and wrong, and what you did was not right. I don't think any one of those 6million Jews, or anyone of the other 6million victims (Russians, Poles, Communists, Homosexuals, Gypsies, and Anyone not supporting Nazism), would appreciate what you and her did. And I'm not trying to say the Jews should be sad forever I'm just saying MAYBE YOU SHOULD HAVE A LITTLE BIT MORE RESPECT THAN TO FORNICATE IN THE FREAKING HOLOCAUST MUSEUM. I wasn't crying by myself by the way but with 3 other people who were in the camps that I was lucky enough to meet before going to the holocaust museum through some Militaria collector friends of mine. Talking with them, you can't help but cry. So let me say again, You want to be naughty, tie her up at home while listening to death metal or some crap like that, I don't care just do it somewhere else, and please have more respect next time.
I am not a Stalinist and nor do I believe in Stalinism because all Stalinism achieved was a personality based on him, and him alone! Read about Lenin, and Democratic Centralism and there you will find my beliefs, and a REAL revolutionary hero. It is not a "cop out" as you put it, I HATE STALIN, he betrayed EVERYTHING that the 1917 Revolution stood for, and Mao was just a Crazy Mass murder.
You aren't. she wasn't German was she? because that would be distasteful in so many ways. I love it. Hell it might even be a war crime to do such a thing.
bigT, I accept your apology, and I also apologize for having offended you. Really, I know it was not OK to have done any sexual act in the Holocaust museum. (But that's precisely the reason we did it, even though this fact probably offends you even more) And your German is really good. I only took two and a half years myself, but I think I got more practice through watching lots of movies and reading newspaper articles. Also, your politics are your business. I was being sarcastic with the Lenin comment - trying to imply that a joke/costume/whatever does not mean that you're belittling any particular event. So, I was not researching any topic related to the Holocaust. I was actually looking at the museum itself, studying the history of its development and analyzing the exhibitions and architecture. I'm sure if I was going through it with several holocaust survivors, I'd be pretty depressed, too. I'm not a bad person. Really, I'm not. Instead, I was just doing some observational research. The context is important. And yes, maybe I had a rebellious streak. It is the result of being engrossed in my research, being involved with pro-Israel activities, and converting to Judaism AT THE SAME TIME. It's given me a bit of cynicism when it comes to excessive Holocaust remembrance, because I think I should be able to support Israel, go to synagogue, be an American patriot, etc. without any of these things being motivated by the Holocaust. I think all that emphasis negates my values, and is really, really bad for the Jews. And death metal does not turn me on.
This thread is tasteless And if the act actually occured and isnt just some lame cry for attention, then the act was tasteless Very, very indeed You shoud be ashamed for A-doing it and B-Posting it on here for the world to see
"durr", its a FORUM...that means the person will receive FEEDBACK about their actions...positive, negative, neutral, whatever...if they didnt WANT peoples opinions about their actions then they wouldnt have, or shouldnt have, posted
Ahh wait, so youre the OP Why the hell did you post in a forum if you didnt want reactions? The answer is you DID want them, non?
lol come on, WAH WAH HE FINGERED A GURL IN A JEWISH HOLOCAUST MUSEUM!!! Ive seen aushwitz for fuck sake, a museum aint shit when u walk into a building and can smell gas fumes still. Jewish holocaust was a thing to do, but if a fingered a chick at a museum its not that bad. "Im gonna finger a jewish gurl on the palestinian border ! YAAaA!"
Mass Murderer? Please. . . If your entire people had been starving for a 100 generations thanks to the ruling classes above you, don't you think a few, capitalists, land owners etc would need to be executed for the Revolution to stay? Or would you rather just let them go and their crimes be forgotten? I think when you say "mass murder" you mean the execution of Counter Revolutionaries such as those who wanted the Czar back in power and for WWI to continue. For once in history the PEOPLE had power. No longer were bosses appointed but they were voted in and removed at any time through radical direct centralized democracy. So what if the Czar and a few of his cronies were lined up against the wall?
