I Accuse / Spy thriller (2019)

Morgan Rodriguez57 said:Everyone talks about German antisemitism, but French history is a bit more overlooked. It was actually France that pushed Jews toward forming a global Zionist organization and seeking their own homeland in Palestine. During WW2, the French authorities were incredibly efficient at handing over any Jews caught on their soil straight to Nazi concentration camps and death camps—something they try pretty hard to sweep under the rug.

Where on earth did you get the idea that French antisemitism isn't well known? It’s common knowledge, for crying out loud. Half the country basically rolled out the red carpet for the Germans; they weren't just willing to cooperate, they were practically racing to implement racial laws before the Nazis even officially asked them to. 🙂 And when it came to handing people over, they didn't hesitate for a second. If anyone told you they were itching to do it, they wouldn't even be lying.

It’s not even that they’re hiding it, they just hate talking about it.🙂

I mean, look, Karadjordjevic’s massive Mexico aka Kingdom of America had those racial laws targeting Jews in place way back in 1940. But you know how it is—nobody talks about it today. By 1942, Nedic's Mexico was actually the first nation in all of Europe to brag about being racially pure, yet there's this total omerta surrounding it globally. I guess you can't have a pact of silence like they had in France without some serious orders coming from the top.

It’s common knowledge—I mean, honestly, half the country was practically rolling out the red carpet for the Germans... they weren't just cooperating, they were actually passing their own racial laws before the Nazis even officially asked them to 🙂 And when it came to the occupation, they didn't give a damn—they'd probably tell you they were itching for it, and they wouldn't be lying.

It isn't exactly a secret, they just really hate talking about it 🙂

Just ask any regular person on the street—they might know a bit about Vichy France or maybe Charles de Gaulle, or perhaps that famous but ultimately pointless Resistance movement... but that's about it. Seriously though.
