Peter Raubal and Heiner Hocheger, the sons of Hitler's half-sister, Angela Hitler, have threatened legal action against anyone who tries to equate the late Nazi leader and Uncle, Adolf Hitler, to Donald Trump. Hocheger, now 68 years old and living in England, and the family spokesperson, states "hasn't our family suffered enough for the evil deeds of our Uncle? All the members of the Hitler bloodline have consciously made a decision not to have children in order to end the Hitler bloodline. We want to just fade into history. But that becomes more difficult if someone like Donald Trump becomes President of the United States. Therefore, the remaining members of the Hitler family ask that all comparisons between Adolf Hitler and Donald Trump stop at once. We reserve the right to move in civil court against anyone who continues to use that analogy."

Admitting that he can understand where the comparisons come from and conceded that the similarities, "in some cases are uncanny", he once again demanded that the public comparisons cease.

From the OP after 8 hours:
This is Satire. I'm sorry that anyone really took it as authentic, but I guess that was the whole point. If this story was about anyone else except Donald Trump, any reader would have known it was satire. But in Trump's case, it really could have been true. That goes to show you, how scary is this guy?

[eShirl]

1. sorry, no

Though now I wonder what Hitler's illegitimate French son would have thought.

"alleged"

[Freddie]

17. Thought the same thing!

Amazing the things you learn from the Bathroom Reader. It is very possible that Hitler had a son with a French woman.

[louis c]

2. By the way, Donald

this is what sarcasm looks like.

[Mike Nelson]

3. They are wrong...

...I don't believe evil is genetic (their choice not to have children). Notably, the country they live in (England) does believe evil is genetic, as evidenced by the country's belief individuals are "royal" by birth. I think Trump believes in his own genetic superiority. It seems, to me, his words and actions are that of a man who believes he is more than a mere mortal.

[louis c]

7. This is a joke, like the onion

[Mike Nelson]

18. Oh, well...

...fooled me.

[duncang]

10. I don't think they believe it is genetic.

I think it is because of what they have gone through. IIRC Some nutcases would be upset harassing them because they weren't following the ways of hitler and trying to revive the third reich. Others were blaming them for hitler's war on the world. They went through a lot of grief and didn't want their children and descendants to go through the same thing.

[Mike Nelson]

19. Good point...

...I would have denied any relation and disowned the name - but, I suppose the "media" would still be around.

[duncang]

37. I think they actually tried hiding for awhile

But they were tracked down and location made public. So it just started over again.

[wheniwasincongress]

22. that is a good way of looking at it

I always thought their "we're not having children" thing was silly...like "look at us, we're not ~continuing~ the Hitler bloodline!" But you bring up a really good point

[RapSoDee]

4. #ComradeTrump & Republican Operatives welcome the FREE PUBLICITY

[louis-t]

27. Notice how all the official photos of him

are shot from underneath? Like Mussolini.

[patricia92243]

5. lol - can't blame them for not wanting to have their name smeared by being linked to Comrade

Trump in any way,

[liberal N proud]

6. Maybe they should go after Trump for emulating Hitler

[louis c]

12. Democrat (not Democrate)

Democrat has no "e" at the end. Please correct your tag line.

[liberal N proud]

14. Amazing that I or no one else has noticed that

All I can say is fat fingers and then just never noticed it. That has been there for months.

[7Inches]

8. Herman Goering: The Nuremberg Trials

Naturally the common people don't want war; neither In Russia, nor In England, nor In America, nor In Germany. That Is understood.

But after all, It Is the leaders of the country who determine policy, and It Is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether It Is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship.

Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That Is easy. All you have to do Is to tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same In any country.

[DinahMoeHum]

9. Sadly, I don't think they have a legal leg to stand on

much as I'm in full empathy for them.

[louis c]

11. It's a joke. Like the Onion (original poster)

[DinahMoeHum]

13. Any link from The Onion? Thanks.

Otherwise, this is a joke that bombed. Big time.

[louis c]

21. I made it up this morning....

You think it bombed?

Look at the responses. The fact that it's believable is the point.

Let me lay it out for you. Trump is so bad and people compare him to Hitler, that Hitler's family is insulted.

The point isn't that it's not true. The point is that it's credible, just like onion stories.

[DinahMoeHum]

24. Fine. Next time when you pull this stunt. . .

. . .put the smilie on. We do not have psychic powers and we are not mind-readers.

[louis c]

29. Didn't you read the link?

[melman]

26. "The point isn't that it's not true"

Seriously? You shouldn't post fake stuff.

[Siwsan]

28. Hitler's grand-nephews do/did live on Long Island, and all chose to not have children

That much is true. I saw a documentary on it, a while back. They absolutely did want to end the family blood line.

Found this article:

[awoke_in_2003]

31. It is getting harder and harder

to distinguish satire from reality.

[louis c]

38. Finally, someone gets the point

[awoke_in_2003]

41. You almost got me

[treestar]

15. There's no case

They think a court has the power to stop an analogy? Stupid people.

[Doodley]

16. Never forget, means never forget. Never should a leader demonize a group of people in order to

whip up hate to be elected. Hitler's family may want to forget, but we cannot do that. We have to make sure that it never happens again. Sorry if that is inconvenient to a family of a man responsible for 72 million deaths.

[BainsBane]

20. Hitler's family is insulted by the comparison

That is how bad Trump is. Woah. Just think on that.

[roamer65]

23. Grumpf is a fascist in his own right.

Woe to us if steals the presidency.

[melman]

25. Where are you getting this?

The quoted text is nowhere to be found at the linked page.

[louis c]

30. It's a made up piece. like Onion

[melman]

33. Right. I see that now

But you are attributing fake quotes to real people. That's not good.

[louis c]

35. I subitted the lack of authinticity on the second reply

[Initech]

32. NEIN!!!

[Vinca]

34. You know this country is in deep doodoo when the Hitlers are offended.

[athena]

36. I really think you should edit the OP

to indicate that it's satire. It looks like many people are going away with the idea that it's the truth, and that's a little offensive to the people mentioned, who can't be held responsible for the actions of their half-uncle.

Not everyone clicks on links, and not everyone reads the replies. This information should be there in the OP.

[louis c]

39. OK

[athena]

40. Thank you.

I get your point, by the way. My husband loves to make jokes no one gets. They sound very close to the truth, so people often think he's telling the truth. He finds it funny and ironic that no one gets them.

[awoke_in_2003]

42. Sounds like my kind of guy...

For me, I think it comes from watching a lot of British comedy when I was growing up.

[louis c]

43. Your husband sounds like a great guy

look me up if you're ever in Boston and my wife and I will take you and your husband out for a lobster. Send something to my email at DU.

Here's me and my wife.

[athena]

45. Thank you so much!

We don't make it up to Boston that often, but if we are there, we'll take you up on your kind offer.

(My husband is a great guy. I never connected it with his sense of humor, but perhaps there is something there.)

[oberliner]

44. Seriously insane that people thought this was real

Mystifying.
