1. Gee. I went to rec to '2' and it registered '1'... Some things are too important to ignore.
Fascism, f'r instance. Hugo Boss Acknowledges Link to Nazi Regime.



I can understand how some people gotta go undercover when underground.

3. Fucking poseurs. When the media can portray OWS as a violent mob, that's when we lose the political

phase of this struggle. Don't give them that excuse. We won't much like what follows.

There's nothing sexy or stylish about street fighting. If this is an insurrection (it isn't, yet), then insurrect -- lead, follow, or get out of the way -- but breaking windows and spray-painting shit just plays into the MSM's expectations and prepackaged message framing. Vandalism and taunting the cops is petty and doesn't damage the 1%, just the opposite.

10. I don't believe so...
I saw the image online from about that time -- five or six years ago. From what I remember: It was taken at a fashion show in Europe. I've tried to find the source, but have been unable to get specifics. Truly sorry, Blue_Tires. I will keep trying.

2. Did not know about CoCo, but I do know that.......
the great Aunt of the Koch brothers was the only women tried in Nuremberg, and the only person tried that was not exicuted or jailed for life.

She was the inventor and chief practitioner of the human skin lamp shade.

4. The Koch Bros. are related to Ilse Koch ("She Wolf of the SS"), head female guard at Buchenwald?
G-d, you learn something new every day. That isn't mentioned on Wiki. Saw some posts here and there about that, though. Anybody have a solid source?

I thought the Human-skin Lampshade lady was the wife of the camp commander at Auschwitz-Birkenau?

14. I used my family tree online account to try to find it and did not find
anything - all Koch links stopped after the brother's grandfather and there was very little about him. The lack of evidence is troubling but it may also mean that the evidence has been covered up. Who knows?

7. So someone found a link between the Koch family of Nazi Germany
and our kochroaches. I tried but could not find one. Curious how greed and hate run in this family.
