Remembrances and Liberty~

How many times do I have to say this: Narrowmindedness and stereotyping annoys me. Very much so.

If in Holland they hold a Remembrance of the Dead (Dodenherdenking) annually on the 4th of May (To commemorate all civilians and members of the armed forces of the Netherlands who have died in wars or peacekeeping missions since the outbreak of WWII), I do NOT want to hear "Oh, they're all jews," in a disgusted tone, when on that day shops are closed or people are on holiday.

Hitler didn't only kill jews. He killed everybody who didn't meet up to his "standards".
That includes (but is not restricted to) jews. Gypsies, the mentally incapable, he would've killed muslims if there were any within reach, and the list goes on. Nothing was good enough.
Hitler liked blondes. Even when he wasn't one himself. He liked blue eyes, even if his were dark.
Hitler thought what he was doing was for the best. For the interest of Germany and it's people.
That just makes him a deluded, rather sad figure.

And I'll bet the guy had fetishes that'd make your toes curl. Just sayin'.

On a happier note: the 5th of May is Liberation Day (Bevrijdingsdag) in Holland, to mark the end of the Nazi occupation. Yay to freedom.
