Savitri Devi's German Pilgrimage, pt. 2

Aug 02, 2007 13:06

Picking up from yesterday...

Devi finally got in trouble in occupied Germany on her third trip, when she was caught passing around pro-Nazi propaganda, aided by a former SS man (who had been shipped off to hard labor camps in the Congo by France after defeat, together with 11,000 fellows; of them, only 4,800 lived to see Germany again three years ( Read more... )

This particular train wreck grows more fascinatingly horrid the more I read.

Like I said to everyone else -- what's happened so far is almost tame in comparison to some of the other people she got involved with in the Fascist International. Though she did lay the groundwork for turning Nazism from a German political movement into a new religion.

Wait a minute, was this chick Indian? Her "god" Hitler would have considered her as genetically inferior scum. He wouldn't have touched her let alone have allowed her to live in his "ayran paradise". The man was planning to eventually eliminate his allies the Japanese.

If you check back in these entries, you'll see that Savitri Devi was born Maximiani Portas, Anglo-French by birth but Greek by ethnos (and by her own preference as well; Devi hated France and Britain). Racially she was a European, but she felt that Indians and Europeans were all fellow 'Aryans', which they strictly speaking were and are (but so are Gypsies and most European Jews), and she went to India to find the primal wellspring of Aryan racial paganism ( ... )

Wow. And here I have been of a mind that villains who are portrayed as so delighted to be EEEEEVIL in works of fiction are mere cardboard caricatures. In some cases, maybe yes, but this emphasizes that, yes, there ARE real people for whom villainy becomes heroism, up is down, and the whole world is topsy-turvy. Scary.

You think this is bad, wait until you read about Hans-Ulrich Rudel, Otto Skorzeny, Miguel Serrano, Count Julius Evola, and more in the European Nazi International founded in 1950 in Sweden. Some of them were REALLY scary.
