FFS. Please somebody show some actual footage of the actual atrocity that was Kristallnacht. https://twitter.com/revrrlewis/status/1348636201041977344
After Kristallnacht, my grandfather, after being forced to clean up the rubble of his burnt-down synagogue, was sent to a camp: Dachau. He was there for six months. Dachau. After which, through bribes that took all the Fabian family had left not already stolen, he got out...
...and him and my grandma and my mum made it to the UK, just. But he was deeply damaged, and in out of mental hospital for the rest of his life. But hey. I imagine it's been much the same for all those QAnon guys now not able to shout "The Jews will not replace us" on Parler.
