While it is true that some Jews may have used their skills or usefulness to increase their chances of survival during the Holocaust, it is essential to contextualize this statement properly and understand that it does not represent the complex history of the genocide perpetrated by Nazi Germany.

Viktor Frankl's observation about the specific situation in Auschwitz, which at some point became a camp that connected the functions of a concentration camp and extermination center and where deported Jews went through the selection process, highlights how some Jews became registered prisoners and might have used their skills to gain favor or prolong their lives in that particular setting. Yet, it never gave them complete protection.

However, we must not overlook the larger picture of the Holocaust. Nazi Germany's ultimate goal was to exterminate all the people it considered Jews (Nazis created their racial definition of a Jewish person). Millions of Jews were brutally murdered in execution sites, mainly across the east of occupied Europe, with entire communities wiped out regardless of their usefulness or contributions to society. While some of the ghettos seemed to have the goal of being productive and Jews were used as slave labor there, being "useful" did not guarantee safety, as the Nazis eventually decided to liquidate them, leading to the murder of those considered valuable as well.

There were no selections in extermination camps, such as Treblinka or Sobibor, and almost all deported Jews were murdered upon arrival, irrespective of any perceived usefulness. Being skilled or useful did not spare them from the horrors of the gas chambers.

Furthermore, during the final stages of the Holocaust, as the Nazi system was collapsing, concentration camp prisoners were evacuated to shrinking camp systems, resulting in the death of many. In these circumstances, being useful did not offer protection either.

Therefore, while it is accurate to acknowledge that some Jews may have survived temporarily due to their perceived usefulness, it is crucial to remember that the Holocaust was a systematic genocide with the ultimate aim of exterminating the entire Jewish population. It would be more appropriate to say that some Jews survived the Holocaust because they were considered temporarily useful, and the circumstances of the Nazi regime's collapse prevented their murder. We should avoid such oversimplifications in talking about this complex tragic story.

Jon Stewart delivers another crushing truth. 🔥

Why do we let corporations socialize financial losses and privatize their gains?

Let that marinate for a few minutes before commenting, it might be a little heavy at first.

Let these words sink in: the Texas abortion ban has led to an 11.5% increase in infant deaths over the previous year. Infant deaths had been declining since 2014 - now they are increasing.

Women are dying. Infants are dying. What about that is "pro-life"?

Today we came back from a 50 minute lunch walk to our neighbour spray painting "f****t" on our house. We called @WMPolice at 2pm, we were told to wait for a police officer to come out to us. It's now past 10pm and nothing. No contact, no support, no consequences.

If you don't already follow this page I'd urge you to do so. It is heartbreaking but it reminds us what happens if we allow Fascism and "othering" to become the norm.

In part because you are monopolizing the distribution of bedaquiline, a life-saving medication that most people who need don't get because you keep the price of the drug artificially high.
Because of your bad business and ethics decision, MDR-TB can spread further and faster.

I want everyone to keep in mind that this ruling comes from a situation that never happened. Yup, a hypothetical story from a bigoted lady’s mind was used to now decide that businesses can discriminate against LGBTQ+ folks.

[Charlotte Clymer 🇺🇦 @cmclymer]

I need folks who are not LGBTQ to understand that today's ruling is not just about a website. It is a clear sign that Obergefell (same sex marriage) and Bostock (LGBTQ employment protections) are in danger of being overturned. This is a devastating ruling. Please understand that.

This is so sad. The fact that Bud Light chose to partner with her then basically hung her out to dry while conservatives literally called for her to be murdered is probably the most egregious example of rainbow capitalism.
