interesting, in the US neo-nazis going to police stations is just called commuting
Yeah please don’t believe the Austrian police are magically free of neo-nazis…
neither is our government 🙄
More like the cops made their pilgrimage site their base.
De-Nazification is such a fucking lie.
The surviving leadership of the Nazi Party was grafted directly onto NATO and to the extended network of fascist US/UK business interests that continued to dominate the West at the end of the war.
Hitler took the idea of manifest destiny from the Americans murdering the native population (great job Pete protecting their medals cause that’s all you have on your fucking calendar today), used it on Europe, then we Paperclipped their nerds to build better rockets…it’s been racist and fascist in the air for a long time now but it most certainly was not just ze Germans
Pretty much all of American history taught in schools is either a lie or heavily edited
converting hitler's birthplace to a police station?
something something some of those who work forces are the same who burn crosses
"Neo Nazis used to make pilgrimages to Hitler's birthplace. Now they work there!"
The fuck? I would have bulldozed it a long time ago and built a waste processing plant.
Bulldozing a perfectly good house build hundreds of years ago in the middle of a city might be the dumbest idea you could have.

Can't believe they ruined a perfectly good piece of statuary like that. What a waste! People in the 1940s were such morons.
But what if it's a cursed house, and produces a dictator every 150 years or some shit? /s
Plus, Nazis would still make the pilgrimage to an empty lot.
It was being used as a care home.
TIL everything that was in todays newspaper. I always figured the TIL-format was mostly for things that you could've learned before, but only just learned today. Peculiar little known facts.
Only the police station is new. I would have never expected that hitler's birth home was still standing.
should have sold it to a jewish group to build a synagogue.
That would have inspired hate crimes.
good be a good honeypot though. Keep it under survellence. get them out of the population.
I mean, it was housing disabled people before. That's just as good
Yes and no. Living in a care hone with Nazis showing up at your door can't be all that relaxing. As long as they pay to relocate that, it's a better idea IMO.
Don’t give the police any ideas…
A bulldozer is another great option.
It's a perfectly good building. Why destroy a home because an evil person lived there?
If I lived in a suburb and nazis were always coming to visit whatever thing I would want to dismantle that thing to stop the nazis coming.
They would still come and leave memorials. Making it a police station is daring them to still do it and see how quickly they get arrested.
Why didnt they bulldoze it instead?
The empty lot would likely still become a place of pilgrimage for these chucklefucks.
then we could bulldoze the chucklefucks. we could be sneaky like that
I like the cut of your jib!
What's a jib
"Be vewwy quiet, I'm bulldozing chuds"
Attempts to quietly start D9
They are. Then building the station. They are even hiding the rubble.
Should paint a big 'free Hitler memorabilia inside' sign, and then inside is just a deep fucking pit.
Can we get a rule about not posting current news?
Agreed, TIL is becoming current events.
Shame it's in the middle of a neighborhood. If it was a farmhouse out in the country, I would have suggested turning it into a sewage lagoon.
So they explicitly chose to legitimise said pilgrimages.
The only acceptable use is as a gender neutral public toilet block.
I suggest a multiplex consisting of a synagogue, a disability benefits office, and a transgender healthcare clinic.
They'd just be at work in America.
