The Daily Show Uncovers The Nazis’ Secret Gay Past

video
» 12 comments

More than half a century later, the journalists of The Daily Show have uncovered the real reason for the inhuman cruelty of the Third Reich: every last one of those Nazis was gay. Or at least that’s what Scott Lively, the president of the organization Defend the Family, contends. In search of the truth, Jason Jones went deep into the heart of New York’s gay community to find evidence for Lively’s argument.

Lively argues, with full certainty, that all the soldiers in the Nazi army, and especially Adolf Hitler and the people in his inner circle, were gay. The reason for the high concentration of homosexuality in the Naxi party, according to Lively? “Adolf Hitler,” he explained, “used homosexual soldiers because they were more savage than natural men… They didn’t have the restraint that a normal man has, and so it was easier for them to do some of the terrible things the Nazis did.” And not only were the Nazis gay, “they met in a gay bar.” As for that whole “persecution of the Nazis” thing, Lively contends that the Nazis persecuted gays to”distract public attention away from their own homosexuality.”

To experience the savagery of gay soldiers first-hand, Jones put on a riot-proof suit and trekked on to the New York Gay Community Center, where he sat down with a number of real-life gays, including LGBT rights activist Lt. Dan Choi, and discussed their secret Nazi past. Needless to say, it was scarier than anything Jones could have imagined.

    I think you meant “century,” Frances. Not trying to be rude or anything.

    My, what a pair of wits we have in Iris and Karl.

    Everyone anywhere near the center, left or right likes to call their enemies Nazis. Only the far right wing nuts don’t call their enemies Nazis.

    I think because the Soviet Union was our ally against the Nazis, and there was a large communist movement in this country, Stalin and the communists did not get nearly as evil a label as Hitler, even though Stalin killed about 30 million people during the purges of the 1930s. He was a known monster before Hitler even got started. Thats why I don’t understand why the center right doesn’t compare the center left with Stalin because while the center left is in no way close to Stalinism, they are much closer to that than Naziism. I guess its just because calling someone a Nazi just seems more damning than calling them a communist.

    So when a right wing fundamentalist Christian group that preaches against homosexuality hears that the Nazis killed gays along with other undesirables like Gypsies and Jews, they have to refute that so that they are not in the remotest agreement with the Nazis. Even though they don’t think gays should be killed, they still don’t want to have any belief even close to the Nazis because some will compare them with Nazis, who everyone agrees were evil. Political correctness is so insidious. It makes everyone afraid of being labeled and causes them to come up with weird s__t like the Nazis were all gay.

    But FDR and Truman called him “Uncle Joe” and Truman wrote in his diary “the Russians have always been our friends and I don’t see any reason why they shouldn’t always be.”

    I’m sure Truman wrote those kind words before Alger Hiss who served in the State Depts. of both presidents was found guilty of perjury for denying he was a secret spy for the Soviets.

    FDR also said in regards to Stalin that he “would hold hands with the devil” to defeat Hitler.

    Well, technically it *was* more than half a decade later…

    Obvious funny typo is obvious (and funny). Thanks for pointing out!

    Iris, your post doesn’t make sense. You’re suggesting that right wingers love ‘aryans’, and that Lively, by bashing gays, is a right winger. But Lively is also bashing the Nazis, or aryans. So how can he be both for and against aryans at the same time?

    The sad thing is that right-wing loonies believe this stuff. Of course they do, although they make it up themselves, because they are religious and will believe anything silly thing that suits their numerous prejudices. And, by the way, “ordinary”, what makes you think that “Right-Wing Christian fundamentalist group” “don’t think that gays should be killed”. On the contrary, I’ve been on numerous phone-in radio programs, and viewed many, many internet news-story comments in which individuals identifying themselves as Christian fundamentalists said they wanted to exterminate homosexuals.

    I always knew it! Dolph had a certain way of strutting as he walked. And moved his wrists just so when he ordered additional Divisions into the Russian Front. Theig Heil!

    Nazi AND gay? Two wrongs don’t make a Reich!

    Every time you think you’ve heard the most ridiculous right-wing assertion ever made, they top themselves.

    Those “God Hates Fags” knuckle-draggers who disrupt military funerals almost have an excuse for being such idiots: they can’t read their Bibles. Radio host Thom Hartmann has mentioned the biblical passages in which Jesus states a dislike for fig trees. That’s FIGS, not FAGS, fools.
