‘Blue Zones’: New Netflix Docuseries Highlights Plant-Based Longevity #documentary #plantbased #food #longevity #GoVegan https://sentientmedia.org/blue-zones-netflix-docuseries/

#Documentary #sources share stories from #LGBTQ #survivors in #WWII #Germany, like #HeinzHeger, #TheMenWithThePinkTriangle (London: GMP, 1986), originally #DieMännermitdemRosaWinkle (Hamburg, 1972).

The 2 images show excerpts detailing the #Nazi #treatment of #TransWomen, #TransMen, #Lesbians, #GayMen, and #Crossdressers. The second image offers a #timeline leading to the #LGBTQ #inclusion in the #Nazi #FinalSolution.

The Nazis made no distinction between trans women, gay men and cross-dressers: all were made to wear the pink triangle and sent to camps like Dachau, Auschwitz and Sachsenhausen, while trans men, classed as lesbians, were marked by the same black "antisocial" triangle as communists and intellectuals. People with pink triangles were singled out for extreme brutality by both the Nazis and other inmates. They were segregated into "queer blocks" and given the deadliest work assignments. For those with pink or black triangles, death arrived not by extermination in gas chambers but by so-called indirect mass annihilation, a combination of "terror work," induced starvation and pitiless punishment. Their lives were ended by a few weeks of deliberately prolonged torture, justified by the Nazis' decision that they were not "real women" or "real men." 32

- 32 Heinz Heger, The Men With The Pink Triangle (London: GMP, 1986). First published as Die Männer mit dem Rosa Winkle (Hamburg: Merlin-Verlag, 1972)
When Hitler seized power, all active gay organizations in Germany were declared illegal. Kurt Hiller, whom Magnus Hirschfeld had named as the head of his Scientific-Humanitarian Committee, was sent to the concentration camp in Oranienburg, from which he was released nine months later for unknown reasons. Until 1933, Roehm's brownshirts attacked gay bars throughout the country; many were closed down and the rest forced to operate illegally. At a meeting of municipal administration officials in Hamburg on November 13, 1933, for instance, the chief of police was ordered to pay particular attention to "transvestites, and to send them to concentration camps." In 1934, the Gestapo sent a letter ordering every police station in the country to draw up a list of "everyone who is homosexually active in any way.” In response, the Berlin police managed to draw up a list of approximately 30,000 homosexuals. In May 1935, the SS magazine Das Schwarze Korps demanded the death sentence for gays.

movie theater specators, all have the face of former chancel... austrian chancellor sebastian kurz
epic hand shake over it
left hand: selfproduce documentary about yourself
right hand: buy empty ticket seats to boost sales

REMARK:
let me start from the beginning. there is a country named austria, lies next to hungary. in more than one sense. 

not so long ago a certain sebastian kurz was chancellor, but resigned over "all kind of accusations"*
NOW, as a #independent #documentation over many aspects of betold "accusations"* was about to hit cinemas, mr #kurz went on to preemptively produce a OWN documentation, and ... bring it to ...cinemas.

apparently, so far* it has not been the expected #blockbuster.
now renowned #falter reports as mamema understands*, that the production company has moved towards buying empty seats in bulk.

In 2012, a lone wolf appeared on an island near #Victoria #BritishColumbia, Canada.
When he first showed up on the island, local authorities said he couldn’t survive. There were no deer to hunt, no year-round source of fresh water. They said that he would be a danger, as he was so close to the city. They debated shooting him. Yet somehow, against the odds, the wolf found a way to survive and thrive,

This wolf is known as #Takaya

If you’re wondering if you’re the only one yelling in frustration about The State Of Things Right Now, rest assured that Barry Crimmins had been doing it longer than you. He was also doing it louder, more articulately, and with more invective.

He’s the most brilliant political satirist who I’ve never heard of. He was also the most active soldier by a long shot in the war against assured wrongness.

As bitter as he was, he’s an inspiration.
