I was going to post about the extraordinary open boat voyage of Captain Bligh. Since my last post launched the Nazi sympathizers around here into full retard mode I decided to go find another story that they are going to enjoy.

Have you heard the story of Helmuth Hübener?

• He was forced from the boy scouts into the Hitler youth
• Quit at 13 when they participated in Kristallnacht, a night of terror that involved destroying synagogues, setting fire to Jewish property and attacking Jews.
• He listened to forbidden radio broadcasts and learned that the regime was not just racist and manipulative, but was losing the war
• With 3 friends he created 60 pamphlets with information from the BBC and called on Germans to resist Hitler.

“The Führer has promised you that 1942 will be decisive and this time he will stop at nothing to keep his promise,” he wrote in one pamphlet. “He will send you by the thousands into the fires in order to finish the crime he started. By the thousands, your wives and children will become widows and orphans. And for nothing!”

He revealed the truth about Nazi lies for months. In 1942 he was captured, imprisoned, and tortured. He was tried at 17 as an adult. On Oct 27, 1942 Helmuth Hübener was beheaded by the Third Reich.

At the end of his trial prior to sentencing, he told the judges “I have to die now for no crime at all,” he said. “Your turn is next!”

Perhaps the next post will be about Captain Bligh and his open boat voyage... or if there are enough dumb replies I will post some more about the brave men that helped defeat the Nazis. The opportunity to antagonize idiots has always been my kryptonite.

Please share a story about a strong man whether its someone famous or your dad, grandpa, uncle, etc

Hard times create strong men

COVID-19 has me feeling down. Fortunately, I am healthy and not worried about getting sick. I am 100% guaranteed to die eventually anyway. The uncertainty of the future economy is weighing on me. I have been working to get to a good place financially. I fear this is going to fuck it all up and make it 20x harder.

I went to r/theredpill to ask for some advice about keeping spirits up. I opened and read "Don't Talk to Me Like a Bitch." Excellent post! That made me realize I should start by giving something instead of asking for something.

Have you heard the story of Captain Witold Pilecki?

• A decorated WWI veteran
• Volunteered to go to Auschwitz concentration camp
  • He was denied permission for this suicide mission several times
• Eventually he gets himself captured by Nazis
• Organizes resistance inside Auschwitz
• Breeds Typhoid on lice then transfers them to the coats of SS officers

Then one day some of his resistance gets caught. So what does are hero do? He escapes Auschwitz!

Witold Pilecki: “I have been inside for two years and seven months. I have had a job to do here. Lately I have had no instructions. Now the Germans have shipped out our best people with whom I’ve been working. I would have to start from scratch. I can see no further point in staying here. Therefore, I’m going to leave.”

Captain 159 [Stanisław Machowski] looked at me in some surprise and said: “Yes. I can see that, but can one pick and choose when one wants to come to Auschwitz and when one wants to leave?”

Witold Pilecki “One can.”

This 6-minute youtube video is a good start: www.youtube.com/watch?v=n-cuylywp6g&ab_channel=patrickney There is also a book about him "The Auschwitz Volunteer: Beyond Bravery"
