There's a real tightrope with how we process WWII. On the one hand, it's incredibly important to grapple with the horrific crimes of Nazi Germany, and it is important that Germans do so as well; on the other hand over-emphasizing the Holocaust takes focus away from the conditions that led to the Holocaust, which were also present in Italy and Japan as well as in many Allied nations. It also de-emphasizes the actual crimes of Italy and Japan. Modern Germany's unconditional support of Israel also shows that they haven't necessarily learned the RIGHT lessons from the Holocaust (though, to be fair, neither have most of the people involved in the Israeli government).

Yeeeeeeeah Germany criticizing Israel will definitely NOT lead to “See? They are STILL trying to destroy Jews” Do you really think after 80 years of “shut up you’re all Nazis” whenever a German says something someone doesn’t like will make anyone willing to do anything that can be construed as anti-semitic even by the worst faith argumenter? For fucks sake, I’m a 50 year old,US born, lefty, trans man and I get that shit all the time for saying Ben Shapiro is a horrible person.

There's a slightly different thing going on with "Was a Lutheran minister in 1940s Germany," which is that the Nazis tried hard to co-opt the Lutheran Church (along with the other main Protestant sects in Germany) and so if you stayed a Lutheran minister, rather than joining the Confessing Church, you were at least pretty chill with Nazis telling you how to run your church.

Now, if it was me, I'd DEFINITELY want to have a different relationship to the man's name and image than even liberal Lutherans do: I know which side I'm on, and I know that if I got in a conflict with my boss or my landlord, Martin Luther would be making up excuses for why it was good and Christian for my landlord to flay me alive or cut off my fingers until I got current with my rent, because that's what he did in life. So it creeps me out that her alma mater had a big statue of the antisemitic torture bootlicker right in the middle of campus, y'know? (It was a new statue, too, maybe 20-30 years old, not some kind of "oh well they put that up in 1890 when hating Jews and the poor was considered normal, and we just don't want to tear it down.") But most Lutherans today are fine. Hell, even a lot of people who were Lutherans in Germany in 1933 turned out to be fine... they just stopped being Lutherans for a while. There was a specific problem with people who were Lutherans in Germany in the '40s, because the ones who weren't at least moderately pro-Hitler had already been weeded out.

>title Oh fuck how much worse can it get... >Intro Oh.

I think a case could be made that the reason Kentler put so much emphasis on the orgasm, and sexual touching in general, as key to the "streaming" effect he describes in his treatment, because so much of *his specific trauma* that Robert describes goes back to A. him wishing his father showed him (the appropriate) physical affection as a child, and B. his having made to feel ashamed of his sexual desires in adulthood. TL;DR: Kentler projected his own need for a daddy dom onto the whole of humanity, to horrifying results.

WHATS READY TO BE SAD FOR THREE WEEKS MY MEEEEEE Edit: whatthefuckwhatthefuclwhatthefuckwhatthefuclwhatthefuclwhatthefuck

The conflation of Nazi thought with post-war conservative thought in Germany is even trickier. Many lukewarm Nazis turned to conservatism ideologically and gave it a particular authoritarian, inflexible bend and style. What they wanted most of all was "Ruhe und Ordnung" (calm and order). Questioning anything threatened to upset the shaky order - also the psychological stability of people with deep-seated self-image issues, as anyone would be after, you know, being a Nazi. There is also the seed of neo-fascism in that attitude: It was one heavily based on a past that never existed, the "gute alte Zeit" (good old time) of the 2nd Empire, embodied in the genre of the saccharine, overly romantic "Heimatfilme" set in picturesque rural landscapes. The "generation of 1968" had thick layers of ugly shit to dig through, and it's almost expectable that someone like Kentler would be produced - and countless sex cult gurus. My mom, being a little too young for 1968, still mistrusts several strands of sexual liberation because of the exploitative shit she saw in the wake of all that...

First episode that made me legitimately yell out WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK (around 55min in!)

31:55 So stoked about the reference to orgone (which is also the name of a great experimental metal band).

I always find these sort of things deeply disturbing as someone who's interested in youth liberation. Because on the one hand, I'm critical of the kind of age essentialism legal systems often use to disguise denying rights to children and rendering them a precarious population, as protection; I'm critical of the default assumption that kids are necessarily heteroasexual (asexual but on their way to heterosexuality); and I do think that children need to be taken seriously as actors (as a matter of fact, not ideal) in global labour markets, in cultural (re)production and in gender and sexuality discourse. It's always distressing to see things that start out close to what I believe end up twisted into just another tool for adult power to be wielded to hurt people without access to it, and it's equally distressing the way that often serves to rebuttress old arguments that act as if childhood divides were sepearate, innocent and logical things (rather than cultural constructs with consequences because of the power and mobility these tools hand to adults, and the protections [in theory] that it removes from them). It's kind of horrifying that legitimate critiques about the biased way in which culture is often more concerned with preventing childhood precosity (up and to including the UK government just proposing banning educating children under nine on things like gender and sexuality, or the blame culture that surrounds teen parents) than the actual problems of heternormativity (you can't have a social system that valorises youthful appearance without it generatoring p3do trash, because those are just the same discourse wearing two different shirts, and because bodies don't mature at a set rate), and we slide from those to 'Oh it's fine if I abuse these kids'. These disputes should have been about children having a right to own their own understandings of gender, sexuality etc without being told they were wrong/too young etc, and about adults also being able to express anxiety, confusion and a need for protection from the state, instead it got warped again into a load of adults generating power-via-academia over the people around them. Argh!

No shit that an attempt to make children independent will be abused by adults. The adults have power because of their mental development, and if you give them 'power' they'll unwittingly relinquish it to the first person who can manipulate them. Go to hell with your ''liberation'. Nine year olds don't need any sex education, and the man who invented/popularized gender theory was himself an abuser.

I think the movie Margaret saw must have been W.R.: Mysteries of the Organism

I dunno man, the episodes on Mengele were pretty fucking dark

Okay, i know enough about this Show, that this title is scaring me. 🎉

I have been dodging a lot of episodes about children and medical history so by the title I'm hoping to gain the fortitude to go back and listen to those.

Also part of what makes this story so disturbing to me is like... I think it's important to be aware of one's weaknesses and stuff that could lead you to support bad things, and like, if I had every educational expert out there telling me that this was a good idea, and I didn't have people who survived sexual abuse telling me otherwise, I feel like I probably would have fallen for it. I don't KNOW. I like to THINK that I would have said 'Wait, but pedophiles have always existed, we should see if this helped people who we know WERE molested by pedophiles,' since that is the second half of 'Not having people who survived abuse disagreeing' part. I just can't help worrying that I might not have done that if I'd been there. Which similarly makes me worry there's something I'm not doing right now that in the future I would look back on.

Maybe we can get away from the term child-rearing

I could definitely see the Western Allies leaning on the scales to ensure that very conservative, religious, "moral" people became the leaders of West Germany.

Are they supposed to only have them for adults? Are they supposed to have them for peers with the potential they never outgrow it?

Ah Elon's favorite topic with his new pals these days.

Kids and adults are just physically emotionally and psychologically on different stages of development that's why they sometimes have a buffer on consent laws for people in a few years of the entity in question . It's true for any one bearing either term unless their age ends in teen and really intuited reflexively. It's pretty simple I don't understand how they managed to overthink this one in so many otherwise enlightened societies throughout history. But it's kinda sad that they proved that they could find a way to go downhill from the 3rd Reich in any regard. I found no part of it more horrifying than the statement"That's the end of part 1".

"Objectively nuts"- maybe, and this is just a thought, because you can't spell "Nazi" without the "nuts" part in it...

Oh eah talkin abiout austria, but boy did it took a while to bring up and work up the past, and i think he did in germany too , probably. Whats wiesenthals really thing he is known for is being basically being a journalist and educator, with loads off charm and humor. Great person, and he did just go when he found out a guy was a natsee officer he went to the work and said, or went there and family, and "hey just you know of that thing of the past, bye" He really wasnt concerned primary with going afte rpeople, but annoy them as good journalist and neve rshut up about what happened. With being good journalism and a mantra "i will bring up the true history, no matter what it is" . He also had a bit part in the zeitzeugen living witness project, and there. So a major impact on not only journalism inself there but also by being a stubbern threatened and cursed a lot at charming educator, and a funny one at that. Very nice. But also, he literaly refused to go becaus in austria he saw he could that do there best, And to not give his enemies the pleasure because he was stzubern as hell, making life not easy for his remaining family with him. XD But that shows people like him had to fought to actually adress the past and the ugly. Also wiresenthal has a very misleading nickname, he was a stubbern integer journalist and educator, not going after peopole per se, he just did annoy them with the truth. Also wiesenthal as good person non-bastard?
