      @@Avarua59 there are a lot of odd trends in that country’s culture, including the rural areas. My great grandmother was born there in the late 1800s and was a dressmaker.. no wonder she fled for sh-tholes like Detroit and NYC. That book by Elfriede Jelinek “Greed” is pretty on-point.
      Unfortunately, the normal and common-sense Austrians are crowded out by the crazies.
      The whole prevalence of incest is probably tied to greed related to hanging onto precious farm land and property. I believe that the law in many of those areas in the 1800s was that a man could not marry at all unless he owned property, which made it difficult to marry at all. Men would marry their cousins who also had parents with money… The poor people ended up having illegitimate kids who wound up living with relatives while the women were stuck working in the fields. Male-male relationships were also common. Even now, child abuse has small penalties as well, libel laws favor the rich, criminals names are protected… I’m sure that is related to all this. Money is everything there, and AH’s father must have had enough money and power to get away with a lot.
      . “The Village In Court” by Regina Schulte discusses some of this.
      The English farmers pulled that same incest mistake quite frequently, so much that the German American immigrant farmer ancestors I’m related to had explicit taboos against cousin marriage. . Even now, Austria has the most fresh water in the EU, so property there is probably worth bank. I’m sure that wine country is prime real estate, too.
      It seems that wherever Master-Serf social structures are common, men see their homes as mini-serfdoms where they are Master and children and housekeepers are Property. Note Schwarzenegger was from rural Austria, and he saw nothing wring with impregnating his children’s nanny and hiding his secret child. They sometimes see employees as s3x toys or as property. Even education/music teachers and mentors sleep with their male and female students, they see nothing wrong with that.

      No he wasn't. The people who voted for the Nazis were middle class small business owners who feared Communism. These people were hardly going to vote for Communists-By-Another-Name. The military supported the Nazis. The old German nobility supported the Nazis. Big business supported the Nazis. They were all politically, socially and economically conservative. They also wouldn't have supported Communists-By-Another-Name.
      The Nazis protected private property. They didn't nationalise companies, but instead privatised state-owned companies. They suppressed unions, despised social welfare (except on racial grounds) and kept wages low. Their policies were at odds with the policies of the Socialist and Communist parties in Germany at the time. And Hitler's first government was a coalition with the conservative German National People's Party.
      Everyone at the time, politicians and ordinary people, both German and non-German, recognised the Nazis as a party of the right. Conservative politicians in other countries flirted with the Nazis out of fear of Communism, and the collaborationist and German-allied governments of Nazi-occupied countries consisted of conservative anti-Communist politicians.

    And if you count all the family members live ruined, there’s a nephew, and of course, his niece he was a scumbag all around

    What a twisted path we run into. Fascinating but sad, also. By the way, since Dresden was mentioned , what a stain on America and Britain for the fire bombing of Dresen with the war almost over. My wife and I, grown children with their own families, were in Dresden in 2022. They are still rebuilding monuments and restoring old buildings after all of these years. Much of this time was due to the Soviets and the DDR controlling Dresden. You cannot change the Russians, they are same today as they were in the Cold War days.

      4.5 - 4.7 million people have been killed in post 9.11 US war zones; over 38 million people have been displaced. Two thirds of the world have been sanctioned.
      We're in the Cold War, only its arguably more dangerous. A result of the Wolfowitz doctrine and Project for the New American Century.
