Auschwitz Museum responds to FOX News' Greg Gutfeld

[AntivaxHunters]

Recently Greg Gutfeld of FOX News said "Jews survived by being useful." playing in the back of DeSantis' bullshit about how slaves learned valuable trades that helped them.

Now the Auschwitz Museum is weighing in on what he said.
First the original tweet then screenshots as it's quite long.

1. What kind of monsters glorify genocide?

[Initech]

11. I don't know, but it needs to stop now.

This kind of shit is insanity and we fought an entire world war against it. Fuck Greg Gutfeld.

[IronLionZion]

16. The kind who want to repeat it

by making it seem like it wasn't so monstrous

[Bernardo de La Paz]

17. Slavery is genocide. Slaves were forbidden to learn to read. Vocational skills? DeSantis has suckers

[AdamGG]

51. Just the number of people that died on the boats coming from Africa

was a genocide.

Let's leave Greg Gutfeld laboring shoeless in agricultural fields for a few months, throw in a whipping or two, and see how useful he finds it.

[B.See]

39. The kind of monsters FUX NEWS has LONG given a platform to.

... welcome to MAGA.

[Hortensis]

2. Fox scum. Hope this continued endorsement of evil

finally forces a few more voters to stop colluding.

[Aristus]

3. Good for the Auschwitz Museum. Sobering thoughts.

I think they miscalculated by thinking he could or would read all of that, though.

[DBoon]

4. when you designate a group as subhuman

their skills and abilities become invisible

[cilla4progress]

5. What

was Gutfield's point???

[irisblue]

12. Laying the social groundwork for the next set of Konzentrationslager/Concentration Camps

[spanone]

6. It's a shame they have to write this letter to anyone, yet alone someone with a media microphone

fuck fox and this asshole

K&R

[CrispyQ]

7. Is this their new rationalization?

Sure we treated you horribly, but you got some skills from that experience so quit your bellyaching.

[Hermit-The-Prog]

8. Fascist Oligarch eXtremists are a threat to us all.

[Johnny2X2X]

9. Woke

Countdown to FOX calling the Auchwitz Mueseum too "Woke", in 3, 2, 1....

[UpInArms]

10. I am finding MAGAt less "useful" each day

[3825-87867]

13. Fox (and evidently, Murdoch) supports MAGAts views...

Make America Genocidal Again

[70sEraVet]

14. So their slogan now is, "Fair and Balanced Nazi Talking Points"?

[geardaddy]

19. This wins the thread

[appalachiablue]

15. Excellent rebuttal to this revisionist garbage by the Auschwitz Museum.

[SpamWyzer]

18. "...by being useful."

Like a lampshade? Or maybe like soap? Slave labor or collaborator? These deniers are dangerous liars and need to be put down.

[robbob]

20. What a monster

If a Jew was deemed “useful”, which is to say “useable” they were put to work in horrific conditions and fed a starvation diet. They were worked to death and starved to death in a coldly calculated manner deemed the most efficient use of their life. So the most “efficient” way to use this “resource” (human lives) is to have them starve to death at a rate that leaves room for more prisoners coming in.

[Efilroft Sul]

21. A "fuck you" would've sufficed.

[Joinfortmill]

22. Shut down this cesspool called FoxNews

[LittleGirl]

23. Fox Spewing their horse hockey. nt

[iluvtennis]

24. Bravo Auschwitz Museum!!

This is inlinr with the BS the MAGAts are spewing about slavery providing enslaved African job skills.

[Initech]

25. Hey MAGAs, a word of advice.

If you find yourself having to defend the Holocaust and slavery, you should take a step back and reevaluate your life choices, because you're on the wrong fucking side. We've literally fought two major wars over this sort of thing that cost millions of lives.

[Warpy]

26. Jesus Haploid Christ (think about it), what a colossal fucking dumbass

I guess his fundagelical church showed Nazi propaganda and taught that was the truth and the other stuff was just vicious smears against the poor, misunderstood Nazis.

I can't wrap my head around the fact that adults in this country have grown up that pig ignorant about the greatest crime in human history, the construction of a killing machine that exterminated 12 million people in the few years it was running, whether they were considered useful or not.

[moniss]

27. Remember what is really between the lines

of what they are saying. If you are not deemed "useful" then your survival is not a priority. "Useful" and "skilled" as defined by mighty white Faux and their ilk. Remember that the GQP is doing everything they can to decrease the access to education and training for disadvantaged groups. As the Nazis said to some people "we can use you, we will let you live". That's the new slogan for Faux after "Fair and Balanced" collapsed under an accumulation of scum like Gutfeld.

28. Auschwitz Museum shows how to respond to the garbage Fox "News" spews.

Thank you, AntivaxHunters, for sharing this.

[NowISeetheLight]

29. They're Already Doing It

The first step to being able to repeat history is to deny and hide it.... Kind of like Florida.

[NoMoreRepugs]

30. Your move Mr Murdoch - what you gonna do with this BOZO??

[moniss]

31. This all goes

right in line with previous segments over the years where Faux has had on people saying that any reparations for slavery should have deductions for the ocean voyage etc. Probably the next segment at Faux will be one in which they claim that the practice of ripping Native American children away from their parents and putting them into "schools" was perfectly fine because some of them learned things and only some of them were mistreated and died.

[AltairIV]

32. Useless, completely, totally.

I've got some bad news for Mr. Gutfeld, you sir are not useful at all. You read a teleprompter for a living. You create nothing. Guess whose first in line if "that" ever happens here.

[gordianot]

33. Arbeit Mach Frei. "Work sets you Free"

Literally the sign over the Nazi Death Camps. Maybe DeSatan could use this a a campaign slogan? Fox News might want to adopt this now the have rid themselves of Fair and Balanced.

[twodogsbarking]

34. Insulting mankind both dead and alive. Nice work fuckhead.

[Cha]

35. Guttfeld is such a Stupid Crock of SHIT.

TY

[Marcuse]

36. "The enslaved and the exterminated received free room and board". CPAC

[BradBo]

37. Greg is their resident comedian, isn't he hilarious!

[yardwork]

38. I respect the Auschwitz Museum's response, but it's too long and nuanced.

It's time to start just saying "that's bullshit" and putting the pressure back on the bigots to justify the crap they say.

[raging moderate]

40. Auschwitz Memorial deserves a standing ovation for their self-restraint.

Greg Gutfield broadcast flast-out lies about those horrible death camps in which about 6 million Jewish people of all ages were brutally tortured and murdered. All during my life, I have read so many accounts of terrifying crimes committed against these people for no reason by those vicious Nazis. And then I have also read that Nazis and fascists here in the United States helped those Nazis take over in Germany and then in most of Europe. Nazi records showed that they deliberately calcalculated food rations so their prisoners would slowly starve to death while being worked to death, with no opportunity to gain food in any other way. At one point, the Nazis at one death camp realized that the Allies would soon be reaching their particular death camp. So they marched all the children out into the cold and drenched them with water so they would die slowly and horribly one by one. And they threw lives babies into furnaces. And they tortured babies and children and others slowly to death in pretend "science experiments." This man is a Nazi sympathizer. No wonder he thinks slavery in the antebellum US was okay.

41. Thank you for posting this

Gutfeld is an asshole

[Wednesdays]

42. From Schindler's List:

Amon Goeth: "Today is history. Today will be remembered. Years from now the young will ask with wonder about this day. Today is history and you are part of it. Six hundred years ago when elsewhere they were footing the blame for the Black Death, Casimir the Great - so called - told the Jews they could come to Krakow. They came. They trundled their belongings into the city. They settled. They took hold. They prospered in business, science, education, the arts. With nothing they came and with nothing they flourished. For six centuries there has been a Jewish Krakow. By this evening those six centuries will be a rumor. They never happened. Today is history."

[republianmushroom]

43. I like their reply.

But he will remain as dumb as a dirt clog.

[lambchopp59]

44. GOP voters have no soul

No compassion, no empathy and not a scrap of common sense if they eat up this swill.

[The Wizard]

45. Pox News is infested

with Russian propaganda and Hitler apologists.

[czarjak]

46. Resident Comedian for Fake News Network's propaganda.

[Scalded Nun]

47. 3 easy steps

1. Demonize - Give everyone a target to point at as the source of their troubles.
2. Dehumanize - Non-whites, not straight, slanted eyes, sick, frail, left-handed (that was my mom), wrong religion...The list goes on and on and you can add more whenever it suits your purpose.
3. Do what you want to them - They are not really human, are they? The need for any conscience or empathy has been erased from the group consciousness. Squashing them like a bug seems almost like doing them a favor.

This is also the GOP playbook (supported by GOP leadership, most of the right, Fox, several MSM corps)

[area51]

48. To the advertisers on Faux:

What the F are you waiting for? Jump ship!

[keithbvadu2]

49. Eisenhower wanted the Holocaust and death camps thoroughly documented because he knew there would be

Eisenhower wanted the Holocaust and death camps thoroughly documented because he knew there would be these evil scum who would try to deny it.

[treestar]

50. all he seems to do here is quote

Victor Frankel. Are we projecting onto him more than that? I'm not sure he really said it was a good thing for the Jews. Certainly Frankel was not saying that.

I'm not sure why he quoted Frankel in response to her saying that someone could say similar things about the Holocaust/Jews as Slavery/blacks. He just jumped in, asked her if she read Frankel, and started quoting him.

There are things worse than slavery, or maybe one thing, and that is the Holocaust. Her projection of saying something similar about the Holocaust was a kind of straw man, as no one was saying that. She then projected some things this straw man might say, and he jumped in almost as if to say no, that use of skills was just about surviving.

[Quixote1818]

52. What BS. They only survived if psychopaths like Joseph Mengele gave them a thumbs up when they

came off the train. Twins had the best shot at survival only to be made into horrific medical experiments. Others were put in work camps, but 99% just went straight to the gas chambers. This is really horrifying what we are seeing from the right-wing these days.

[dchill]

53. So, possibly extermination of Fox Newsians would make...

...their people learn some useful skills?

[Polybius]

54. Gutfeld is Jewish too

Self-hating?

[BeckyDem]

55. He is unfit to be on air.

Disgusting.
