holy fucking shit, gang. there was a commie in poland who became a nazi member to survive, and he ended up stamping a bunch of border passes to other commies and jews so they could gtfo and survive. history is fucking insane.

French bourgeoise Jews saw Hitler as "a braggart with no future" and didn't take his ravings seriously. They sided with the nationalists and acted like the communist movement was the biggest threat. Immigrant Jews were much more likely to join the resistance because they had no illusions about antisemitism and were already used to illegal activity having worked illegally as immigrants. hmm
