>>/32073/ > Says the imageboard fascist. Shlomo please... > There was no slavery, only unpaid forced labor Like in USA, GB, France, Soviet-Union etc. > harsh conditions with a high mortality rate. No there weren't. What propagandist like you and your source do is to muddle different categories and then draw false generalizing conclusions. For example "high mortality" that is created by adding the deaths of Soviet POW. The Soviet Union did not recognize Imperial Russia's signing of the Hague Conventions of 1899 and 1907 as binding, and it refused to recognize them until 1955.[5] One could complain about the death of Soviet POW if the Soviets would not have killed 90 percent of German POW in the relevant time span. Foreign civilian worker, that were all volunteers, were decent treated received comparable to Germans wages. > I get it already. You have more information than Tooze Someone that writes already in the preface of his book: "As in many semi-peripheral economies today, the German population in the 1930s was already thoroughly immersed in the commodity world of Hollywood, but at the same time many millions of people lived three or four to a room, without indoor bathrooms or access to electricity. Motor vehicles, radios and other accoutrements of modern living such as electrical household appliances were the aspiration of the social elite. The originality of National Socialism was that, rather than meekly accepting a place for Germany within a global economic order dominated by the affluent English-speaking countries, Hitler sought to mobilize the pent-up frustrations of his population to mount an epic challenge to this order." So according to Tooze the problem the Germans had were "pent-up frustrations of electrical household appliances" and not being fucked raw and robbed! That is such an bizarre, "weltfremd", alien, crazy preposition I have not found yet in any other book about the Second World War. The audacity of the Germans "to challenge this order"!
