  • You’re ignorant of history and that’s a problem.

    There were fewer than 500,000 jewish Germans in 1933. That’s less than 1% of the population.

    The millions who were murdered were mainly citizens of Poland and the Soviet Union. If the nations of Western Europe had prepared themselves better for war and fought with more tenacity, millions would have lived.

    The absolute disaster that the Wehrmacht inflicted on the Soviet Union is largely the result of Stalin’s defects. Dictators are bad; an obvious lesson. A less obvious lesson comes from the Generalplan Ost. The Nazis wanted to murder much of the population east of Germany; Poles, Czecks, Ukrainians, Belarusians, Russians, and others. Many tens of millions of individual human beings were to be killed, mainly through hunger. Then the territory was to be settled by Germans, That’s the whole Lebensraum thing.

    Where should all these people have gone?

    That’s why the Ukrainians today don’t have a choice. Putin wants to eradicate the ukrainian ethnicity. We know that. We don’t know how many people he is willing to murder; to physically eradicate. Would you take the chance?


    In 1939, immediately before WW2 and the holocaust, the MS St. Louis sailed with 900 jewish refugees from Nazi Germany to Cuba. But Cuba refused to take them in, as it had just hardened its laws. The ship sailed to Canada and the USA, but they, too, refused. Something, something, race.

    Eventually, the UK, France, Belgium, and the Netherlands took pity on these people and gave them shelter. Obviously, many of those on the continent were murdered in the Holocaust.

    Where do you think 65 million US Latinos will go? They live in the US and they will die in the US. One way or the other.








  • The most deepfaked women are certainly actresses or musicians; attractive people that appear on screens and are known by much of the population.

    In some countries, they do not allow people to appear on-screen exactly because of that. Or at least, that’s one justification. If the honor or humanity of a woman depends on sexual feelings that she might or might not arouse in men, then women cannot be free. And men probably can’t be free either.

    At no point have I claimed that anyone is being liberated here. I do not know what will happen. I’m just pointing out how your message is harmful.


  • Historically, the respectability of a woman depended on her sexuality. In many conservative cultures and communities, that is still true. Spreading the message that deepfakes are some particular horrible form of harassment reinforces that view.

    If having your head on the model of a nude model is a terrible crime, then what does that say about the nude model? What does it say about women who simply happen to develop a larger bosom or lips? What does it say about sex before marriage?

    The implicit message here is simply harmful to girls and women.

    That doesn’t mean that we should tolerate harassment. But it needs to be understood that we can do no more to stop this kind of harassment than we can do to stop any other kind.











  • You still thinking that you don’t have the right to photograph people in a public place and post them on photography forums for instance.

    Put like that, that’s exactly correct. That’s not a recognized right in the EU, unlike data protection. That does not mean that it is forbidden, provided that the GDPR is followed.

    Beginning to think you’re trolling or you’re that dense that NASA might mistake you for a black hole.

    I have very patiently and kindly answered your questions and corrected your misunderstandings. I am not sure what you expect of me. Should I google explanatory links for you and paste the content here? I feel it would be rude to treat you like you are a child.
