Dehumanization of “the other” can make you do quite a bit of evil. I still have PTSD from what was done to me nearly 60 years ago, being born with Goldenhar Syndrome. I strongly suspect I was seen then - and still am - seen as a lesser being by some people.

@eduardmedrea1930 what - that I’m seen as a lesser being? It’s simple, really - if you are somehow different, there are people that see you as a threat to their *exalted* existence by your mere presence. This means they don’t want you around to *poison* their world - and if they can “dispose of” all persons like you, their world will somehow be “greatly improved.” These people commonly see themselves as superior beings, and often have pseudo-magical notions of “purity” operating at a (usually) unconscious level. That means they have a fear of Contamination, much as if they were deep into “Hindutva” and saw themselves as a kind of Brahmin. This also leads to “Cultish” behavior, and an overall aspect of “everything operates by Magic(k), hence one only needs to know the right people (seen as arch-Magicians, e.g. Leaders with dictatorial powers) the right “chants” (catch-phrases, or in some cases, actual chants or *Mantras* ) or have the correct appearances, tools, vehicles, etc.” This last is a form of *impression-management.*

My face is slightly lopsided, I’m deaf on my right side, my right “ear” was almost completely missing - and there’s a lot of other stuff, most of which wasn’t diagnosed until later in life. Some was *misdiagnosed,* resulting in some serious, life-altering mistreatment. Much of it was treated by others as evidence of bad character/innate evil/?? - as if I only tried harder, I could act “normal.” I now know what they meant by “Normal” - accept my defined status as a lesser being, and give them, my betters, that worship they were due. I wasn’t able to do so then, because I didn’t have the usual ways of discerning such things, and no one had thought to teach me.

Hello Graeme, I have suspected for a few years that my mother's older sister, Ursula Scheuermann, was a victim of Aktion T4. She was born in 1935 with a brain injury. My brother recently confirmed that our grandmother had also believed that Ursula was one of the early victims. We were told as children that 'everyone in the childrens' home had disappeared'. I have been thinking a lot about Ursula recently - a long lost photo of her has recently resurfaced, showing a much loved little girl with her adoring grandmother. I wonder if there is any way of getting her name added to the holocaust memorial?

This was excellent. I’ve been binge-watching you for 7 hours if you include my comments. My husband is fortunate enough to work internationally, from the Far East to Africa to many countries in Europe. We try to connect the European jobs so we can go where we want in between, (for the 15 years leading up to Covid, and then becoming bedridden as I described in my Frida video comment tonight) which is everywhere Holocaust related. If we’ve been to a city, we’ve seen every single thing in it, down to the last eagle shadow on a stucco wall. I have a bookcase of WW2 books including “Hitler’s Willing Executioners.” The day we went to Dachau it was freezing cold, which is when it’s best to travel. First of all, we have coats and everything else warm, and the prisoners were always cold, so I can stand it for a couple of hours. Second, we were the ONLY ones there. I can’t put into words how it feels to stand in front of those trenches where so many were shot, or in the particular rooms I don’t even want to name because then I won’t be able to see. All alone. Other camps, 5X to Munich, Nurmberg, Berlin, Berchtesgaden, and countless more. So many cities not known for Nazi history have Documentation Centers where I happily read all day while my husband works.

@@professorgraemeyorston Here in the UK they do euthanasia of the disabled, the poor and the old. The government started an absolute hate campaign against the disabled in about 2014, but the hatred towards the poor and the disabled existed long before. I became severely disabled in 2021, the abuse I've suffered since then - from medical staff and other authorities - needs to be seen to be believed! I had it before because I've always been assumed to be poor (no idea why!), but the abuse has gone through the roof since I became disabled! They've tried their utmost to kill me off with heavy tranquilizers that stop breathing and stop the heart, which is the method they use here (check out the Midazolam Murders) - the more I refused, the more abuse and threats, and refusal of all medical treatment, I got! Please note that I am physically disabled, not mentally. I've been told for the last 20 years that I'm "not good enough to live", a "useless eater" and a "parasite". Now I'm also being told that I'm a "useless c r ! p p l e ". I've lost count how many times I wanted to apologize for still being alive!

Very distressing, but very interesting video, as always. While watching it, I kept wondering how nurses could just stand by and watch as the children and adults under their care were treated so inhumanely and killed. Surely, the nurses who cared for these children had to have had some doubts about it all? I will never understand how doctors could commit such acts, but then it was a different time and there was a propaganda machine in place, but still, I don't understand. Then again, I struggle to understand how anyone can get caught up in a cult and not notice that they are being used, abused and exploited. There is no real difference between the gov't of a country misleading its people (let's face it many of the people who were 'into' hitler, are no different from people all over the world who are 'into' trump or putin or that little guy in North Korea, just to name a few of the many) and a cult leader misleading groups of people, apart from the scale. People are people everywhere and there are always those who think in terms of "the other" as the enemy, the cause of all problems, etc. It is terrifying to think how relatively easy it is, as you say, to turn honest, decent people into worshipers of evil.

Thanks for the video. We shall never forget. Crazy what human beings are able to do to other human beings. Beyond anything a wild animal could ever do. But one question: I think you said the UK was one of just countries which didn't do forced sterilization due to eugenics. Is this actually true? This was some decades later, but as far as I know, the legendary Alan Turing had to undergo this because of his homosexuality. So it has been a case in the UK? Maybe you can help me out

Canada medical staff are encouraged to try to convince sick people to off themselves if its the cheapest option. Often to the point of refusing to give them conventialion treatment. Previously you needed a illness, albeit a very minor one - they killed one guy for hearing loss. But the gubbmint in canada is looking to expand this to include mental illness. Euthanasia is now the 6th leading cuase of death in canada, with arounf 10,000 people killed this year. If you think at least sone of those people were not coerced into doing it to save the system monry you need to replace the captain of your brainship becuase he is drunk at the wheel. This will certainly be expanded until doctors can make the decision for you.
