Alice and Ernst.
A brief history of gay Nazis 80 years apart. Alice Weidel now and Ernst Röhm then.
The populist narrative on the rise of the far-right avoids the N word. Far-right is another name for Nazi as much as Nazism is another name for Zionism, ideologically speaking.
AI says of this association between Nazism and the far right:
The majority of scholars identify Nazism in both theory and practice as a form of far-right politics. Far-right themes in Nazism include the argument that superior people have a right to dominate other people and purge society of supposed inferior elements.
As I like to do when using historical examples of the past informing the future, here is my point on Nazis of the far right, told in the first hand account of two German individuals born gay and far right almost 100 years apart.
Alice Weidel and Ernst Röhm. The commonalities that link them and the most likely outcome when the past predicts the future.
Yesterday Alice Weidel’s Alternative for Germany (AfD) party secured nearly 21% of the vote in the German election.
Weidels’ success owes a sizeable debt to her fellow member of the far right, Elon Musk, whose promotion in the election run up gave Weidel access to his Twitter audience of 200 million far right enthusiasts. In this free promotion for the far right, both agreed that “Hitler was a communist’. Musk was first to call Weidel this morning, congratulating her on the party's election success.
Weidel's grandfather Hans Weidel was a Nazi judge, appointed directly by Adolf Hitler.
Weidels’ far right N-Word movement draws many political conclusions from the N-Word past in Germany’s political history. Weidel vigorously defends economic liberalism and declares far right conservative Margaret Thatcher to be her favorite female N word role model.
Weidel and her far-right party support tax cuts for the rich, the abolition of inheritance tax and expanding the use of slave labor by opposing a minimum wage. The benefits of low cost labor are equally well remembered by American Slave owners as by Nazis in the industrial preparation for their for-profit World War.
Identifying with her fellow far-right N Word leader Donald Trump, in 2017 Weidel criticized the immigration policies of Merkel, stating that "the country will be destroyed through this immigration policy. Donald Trump said that Merkel is insane and I absolutely agree with that. It is a completely nonsensical form of politics that is being followed here."
Also in 2017, Weidel took a far right stance on political correctness, saying that it belonged in the "dustbin of history". In response, on April 27, TV presenter Christian Ehring of the satire program extra 3 addressed this PC wokeness with his now legally confirmed Nazi slut comment:
"That's right! Let's put an end to political correctness. The Nazi slut is right. Was this incorrect enough? I hope so!"
Weidel was unhappy with Christians Nazi slut label and took legal action. The Hamburg district court ruled that freedom of expression in Germany covers satire, especially when directed toward public figures, who must “put up with exaggerated criticism.” Whether ‘Nazi slut’ is exaggerated criticism is anyone’s guess. Almost 21% of German voters like the sound of it.
2017 was a big year for Alice, in which many media outlets ran with a variation of: The German far right is faltering. They’re hoping a lesbian mom can reenergize the party. Almost certainly the Nazi slut label on TV brought her the attention that led to her political star rising as it has. The far right recognized a voice for their interest in which identifying as a Nazi attracts popularity.
During her Twitter mass-audience interview with Elon Musk, N Word Zionist Weidel said she supported the state of Israel and its right to self-defense, deferentially condemning HAMAS by expressing her support for Israel’s right to genocide, at will, indefinitely.
Former Goldman Sachs employee Weidel is in a lesbian relationship, since 2009, with Sarah Bossard, a Sri Lankan-born film producer who was adopted as a child by a Swiss couple. Since 2019 the pair live with their two adopted sons in Switzerland. Weidel works in Berlin and says her official residence is in her electoral district in Überlingen, Germany, enabling her to avoid Swiss taxation.
Historically we know that Nazi persecution of minorities targets both homosexuals and foreigners with the same enthusiasm that it targeted the 19 million who died by Nazi genocide in the Hitler far-right years.
And that is my segue to part two of the Alice and Ernst story.
Ernst Röhm, born in Munich in 1887, became a leading Nazi, without whom Hitler would not have come to power when he did, who was rewarded for his loyalty to the Fuhrer with a bullet in the head after being personally arrested by Adolph. Ernst was a gay Nazi raised to enormous influence over Germany’s political future unaware that Nazis do not tolerate unconventional lifestyle choices, in which being gay is moral turpitude, a deviance punishable by death.
The picture of these recognizable figures from Germany’s political past was taken on January 30, 1933 on the day of Hitlers appointment as Reich Chancellor. These are the key men who drove the Nazi train.
From left to right: Oberpräsident Wilhelm Kube Justice Minister Hanns Kerrl Minister Dr. Joseph Goebbels Der Führer Adolf Hitler Chief of Staff Ernst Röhm Ministerpräsident Hermann Göring Minister Walther Darré Reichsführer of the SS Heinrich Himmler Deputy Führer Rudolf Hess Minister Wilhelm Frick seated in the front.
While Goebbels, Göring, Himmler, Hess and Frick are known to many, Ernst, the chief of staff for Hitler and a key man in the rise of Nazism who is significantly responsible for bringing Hitler into office, is not mentioned much in the history told by the victors.
Ernst Röhm, was 27 at the outbreak of World War I in August 1914. He was an enthusiastic combatant for Germany, rising through the officer ranks until, during the autumn of 1918, he contracted the deadly Spanish influenza. The Fort Riley Flu that American troops arriving in the battlefields of Europe brought from America, to infect all sides, forcing the armistice on 11/11/11. 1918.
The Fort Riley flu, the Wilson Pandemic, misnamed in 1918 as ‘the Spanish Flu’ went on to kill more people than all of WW1’s battles. At least 50 million worldwide. One fifth of the Earth’s population. But not Ernst, who survived, going onto become a mover and shaker in German politics by cracking skulls and breaking bones, unafraid to get his hands dirty.
In 1919 Ernst joined the German Workers' Party (DAP), which the following year became the National Socialist German Workers Party (NSDAP). Not long afterward he met Adolf Hitler, and they became political allies and close friends.
In early 1923, Ernst took part in the establishment of a federation of paramilitary organizations that was titled Arbeitsgemeinschaft and aimed at strengthening the army and combating Marxist influences. Combating Marxism being one of the key unifying motivators for members drawn to Nazism.
During early September 1923, when the Nazi Party held its "German Day" celebration at Nuremberg, Röhm was largely behind the presence of some 100,000 participants drawn from right-wing militant groups, veterans' associations, and other paramilitary formations. This included the Bund Oberland, Reichskriegsflagge, the SA, and the Kampfbund. The collective alliance Röhm delivered as a gang of thugs available to Hitler’s political ambitions.
The treaty of Versailles ending WW1 regulated the German military severely. The German army was restricted to 100,000 men; the general staff was eliminated; the manufacture of armoured cars, tanks, submarines, airplanes, and poison gas was forbidden; and only a small number of specified factories could make weapons or munitions. In this circumstance, the value of a million Proud Nazi boys to do their Fuhrers bidding with no legal oversight was significant in Hitler winning control of Germany, as a convicted felon.
In November 1923, Röhm led his Reichskriegsflagge militia at the time of the Munich Beer Hall Putsch. While Hitler and his entourage were at the Bürgerbräukeller, Röhm planned to start the revolution by occupying crucial points in the centre of the city.
Röhm then led his force of nearly 2,000 men to the War Ministry, which they occupied for sixteen hours. The subsequent march into the city center led by Hitler, Hermann Göring, and General Erich Ludendorff with swastika banners flying high, was ostensibly undertaken to "free" Röhm and his forces.
While crowds cheered, egged on by famous anti-capitalist, revolutionary-nationalist Nazi Gregor Strasser shouting "Heil", Hitler's armed assembly, wearing red swastika armbands, encountered Bavarian State Policemen who were having none of it.
When the far right Proud Nazi Boys reached the Feldherrnhalle near the city center, gunfire began, killing fourteen Nazis and four policemen and breaking up the coup attempt. The putsch had failed. The Nazis' first bid for power had lasted less than twenty-four hours. Röhm had done his best though. Proven his value to Hitler.
Three months later, in February 1924, Röhm, Hitler, Ludendorff, Lieutenant Colonel Hermann Kriebel and six others were tried for high treason. Röhm was found guilty and sentenced to fifteen months in prison, but the sentence was suspended and he was placed on probation. Hitler was found guilty and sentenced to five years' imprisonment, but served only nine months at Landsberg Prison (under permissively lenient conditions).
Being a convicted felon did his prospects of winning the Leadership eight years after his release, no harm at all.
Six years later in September 1930, following the Stennes Revolt in Berlin, when SA members tried to win more power from Hitler, Hitler assumed supreme command of the Sturmabteilung (SA) the paramilitary stormtroopers associated with the Nazi Party that numbered over a million members. Hitler appointed Röhm as the SA's Chief of Staff, commencing January 5, 1931, solidifying his role as the most influential commander of Nazi thugs in Germany at that time.
Röhm brought radical new ideas to the SA, appointing close friends to its senior leadership. Their initial assignment of protecting Nazi leaders at rallies and assemblies was taken over by the Schutzstaffel (SS), while The SA stormtroopers continued their role as street fighters, confronting anti Nazi elements including communists, political rivals, Jews and others deemed hostile to the Nazi agenda.
Under Röhm, the SA often took the side of workers in strikes and other labor disputes, attacking strikebreakers and supporting picket lines. SA intimidation by drunken far right thugs participating in coordinated street attacks was essential for the rise of the Nazis. In Germany and everywhere else where fascism has used violence. To the extent that we can safely say; without those million drunken Nazis bashing any protestors looking to stop Hitler’s mad dog rise to power, the checks and barriers the post war German political system had in place would have prevented Hitler seizing absolute power.
For this reason history suggests; without Röhm and his proud Nazi boys, we would have had no Hitler.
Although the Nazi Party won the greatest share of the popular vote in the two Reichstag general elections of 1932, they did not have a majority, so Hitler led a short-lived coalition government formed by the Nazis and the German National People's Party. Under pressure from politicians, industrialists and others, President Paul von Hindenburg appointed Hitler as Chancellor of Germany on 30 January 1933. This event is known as the Machtergreifung (seizure of power).
In the following months, the Nazis used a process termed Gleichschaltung (roughly 'bringing into line') to consolidate power. By June 1933, virtually the only organizations not under the control of the Nazi party were the army and the churches.
Röhms role in establishing the SA as a force proved to be the counterweight for Hitler’s negotiations to bring the army on board. As well as, quite possibly, winning approval from the Church for getting rid of a sinful homosexual.
Hitlers team saw the advantage in promoting Röhm homosexuality as offensive to the conservative values of the Christian majority.
The rumors begin in June 1931, when the Münchener Post, a Social Democratic newspaper, began commenting on homosexuality in the SA, involving Röhm, his deputy Edmund Heines, and others.
Hitler was aware of Röhm's homosexuality. Although his antipathy to homosexuality was known, Röhm’s usefullness to the Nazi cause by way of willingness to commit Nazi brutality where directed kept him alive until Hitler was no longer dependent on his support.
Röhm’s fate was decided in February 1934. Hitler announced his plan to reduce the SA by two-thirds, stripping the SA of all but a few minor military functions. This role formerly with the SA would go to the Reichswehr. The Reich Defence was the official name of the German armed forces during the Weimar Republic and the first two years of Nazi Germany. Still struggling to grow under the limitations imposed by the Versailles agreement.
The Nazi hierarchy, led by Goebbels, encouraged speculation that the SA was planning a coup against Hitler.
On April 11, 1934, Hitler met with German military leaders on the ship Deutschland. He knew charismatic 86 year old President Paul von Hindenburg was unlikely to survive much longer. Hindenberg would die less than four months later.
Hitler informed the army hierarchy of Hindenburg's imminent demise and proposed that the Reichswehr leaders support him as Hindenburg's successor. In exchange he offered to reduce the SA, suppress Röhm's ambitions, and guarantee the Reichswehr would be Germany's only military force.
A political struggle within the party grew, with those closest to Hitler, including Prussian premier Hermann Göring, Propaganda Minister Joseph Goebbels, and Reichsführer-SS Heinrich Himmler, positioning themselves against Röhm as Hitler hesitated doing away with his long-time ally Röhm.
On April 20, 1934, Göring transferred control of the Prussian political police (Gestapo) to Himmler, knowing Himmler could be counted on to move against Röhm.
In early June, defence minister Werner von Blomberg issued an ultimatum to Hitler from Hindenburg: unless Hitler took immediate steps to end the growing tension in Germany, Hindenburg would declare martial law and turn over control of the country to the army.
The threat of a declaration of martial law from Hindenburg, the only person in Germany with the authority to potentially depose the Nazi regime, put Hitler under pressure to act.
Hitler decided the time had come trade Röhm’s value for his political gain.
In June 1934, in preparation for the purge known as the Night of the Long Knives, both Himmler and Reinhard Heydrich, chief of the SS Security Service, assembled a dossier of fabricated evidence to suggest that Röhm had been paid 12 million Reichsmark (equivalent to €57 million 2021) by the government of France to overthrow Hitler. Leading officers in the SS were shown faked evidence that Röhm planned to use the SA to launch a plot against the government. The Röhm-Putsch.
At Hitler's direction, Göring, Himmler, Heydrich, and Victor Lutze drew up lists of people in and outside the SA to be killed. All enemies of the state placed in the role of checks and balances against the seizure of absolute power would be removed in one fell swoop.
On June 30, 1934, Hitler and a large group of SS and regular police flew to Munich. They arrived between 06:00 and 07:00 at Hanselbauer Hotel in Bad Wiessee, where Röhm and his followers were staying. With Hitler's early arrival, the SA leadership, still in bed, were taken by surprise. SS men stormed the hotel and Hitler personally placed Röhm and other high-ranking SA leaders under arrest. The early bird caught the worm.
According to Adolf Hitler's primary chauffeur, Erich Kempka, Hitler turned Röhm over to "two detectives holding pistols with the safety catch off", to be taken straight to the cells.
The SS found Breslau SA leader Edmund Heines in bed with an unidentified eighteen-year-old male SA senior troop leader.
Goebbels emphasized this aspect in subsequent Nazi propaganda, justifying the purge as a crackdown on moral turpitude. Kempka said in a 1946 interview that Hitler issued an executive order; both Heines and his partner were to be taken outside of the hotel and shot.
This association between homosexuality and moral turpitude would evolve into legislation criminalizing homosexuality, leading to summary arrest for all involved. By the end of the war Germany’s homosexual community form one of the many minority groups eradicated in the Nazi genocide with the approval-support of the majority in Germany’s Christian community.
Although Hitler presented no evidence of a plot by Röhm to overthrow the regime, he nevertheless denounced the leadership of the SA. Arriving back at party headquarters in Munich, Hitler addressed the assembled crowd. Consumed with rage, Hitler denounced "the worst treachery in world history". Hitler told the crowd that "undisciplined and disobedient characters and asocial or diseased elements" would be annihilated. The crowd, which included party members and many SA members fortunate enough to escape arrest, shouted its approval.
That was 1934. SA members lucky enough to escape arrest, who may themselves have been gay, cheered on Hitler for whatever he said. Obedience to the Fuhrer was becoming increasingly necessary as a survival mechanism.
Thou shalt listen to the supreme leader and cheer obediently, or die. Even if he has just executed your boyfriend. Especially if he has just executed your boyfriend.
Hitler ruminated over Röhm's execution for a whole day, eventually deciding Röhm should have the option of an honorable suicide.
On July 1, 1934, two SS principals, the Nazi’s Theodor Eicke and Michael Lippert visited Röhm’s cell to deliver a Browning pistol loaded with a single cartridge. They told Röhm he had ten minutes to kill himself or they would do it for him. Röhm demurred, telling them; "If I am to be killed, let Adolf do it himself."
Having heard nothing in the allotted time, Eicke and Lippert returned to Röhm's cell to find him standing with his bare chest puffed out in a gesture of defiance. Eicke and Lippert then shot and killed Röhm. SA lackey Viktor Lutze, who had been spying on Röhm for the Nazis was named as the new Stabschef (SA).
Fast forward 90 years and that model of rule by far right thuggery with Purges and Putsches and Nazi goons marching on Government buildings in coordinated treasonous coup efforts has benefited enormously from advances in technology enabling a much wider reach for bullying Nazi goonery of this far-right type.
The wave of global Nazism spreading at this time, the Fourth Reich Zionist Nazi era, (FRZN) is only alarming to those who know what Nazism is and how it ends for the Nazi majority. Especially when considering how those SA Members greeted the news of their leader and fellow SA Members brutal executions by cheering on the murderous leader.
What is the percentage of people raised and trained as religious conservatives to respond obediently to the threat of bully violence, even celebrating behaviors that they know in their c\Christian hearts to be wrong.
Donald Trump’s return to power is a morale booster for all far-right politicians, like Viktor Orbán, Javier Milei, Giorgia Meloni, Vladimir Putin and Alice Weidel. Having pioneered many of the destructive, reactionary ideas associated with Trumpism, they’re now closer than ever to global hegemony.
Far-right Nazism became quite unpopular in 1945. To the extent that in 1946 there was an enormous trial in Nuremberg in which the majority were shown how Nazism corrupts the thinking of ordinary people, who place obedience to the leaders narrative, no matter how counter intuitive it may be to their own interests, above their own ethical sense of right and wrong.
Eighty years later there are more Nazis globally than ever, in the far-right label of Nazism.
This time around in the rise of Nazism there is no special relationship between Britain and America to stop that wolf in sheep’s clothing. The lying Nazis still euphemistically referred to as the far-right, able to return the exact same ideology that Hitler invited into Germany and, almost imposed on the rest of the World in 1939.
The only reason Hitler failed with global conquest then was because the force of the anti Nazi resistance was greater than the force he could bring to bear.
Nazi force in propaganda and military strength, killing or dumbing down the majority who argued against his right to blitzkrieg the poor and steal their land.
Common theft by brutal force backed by deviant legislation masquerading as a legitimate political ideology that was never more than a racist entitlement to reward the richest most-obedient conservative majority at the expense of the poorest.
By propagandizing a Christian majority clothed in ethical sackcloth, into believing they are entitled to be the beneficiaries of this theft, in which mass-murdering children becomes a necessary component of “What Jesus would do.”
2025 sees Nazis join the global movement faster than we have ever seen before. The unconscious Nazis, almost all of whom identify as Christians.
Whether you call him a far-right Nazi or just a committed Zionist, Netanyahu remains the central axis around which the global rise of the Nazi right revolves.
Zionist allegiance is the commonality every one of the Nazified far-right share.
This is only alarming if you count how many formerly anti Nazi governments are now pro Zionist coming ever closer to criminalizing all anti Nazi protest, including any reference to the ongoing Nazi genocide.
The links between the Nazis then and the Nazis now are as disturbingly transparent as the far-right then and the far-right now. Unless, as 47% of Americans do, you approve of endless Nazi genocide in the name of Zionism. In which case, nothing to see here.
