Ep. 55: Nazism
Episode description
Technically, part one of two: We all know them. We all hate them. But where did it all start? This week, Hannah tells Katy about how Nazi Germany formed, what Nazi's actually believe (spoiler: everything you thought, and worse), and how an entire nation fed into the toxic and racist ideology that would eventually cost MILLIONS of lives. Find out why scientific racism isn't a thing, why you should know even just the basics of genetics before making legislations about it, and why seeing your peers buy into white supremacy and murder is way less far-fetched than you want to think.
This one is ROUGH, and we apologize in advance for all the angry/frustrated rants we go on. Definitely get a drink, and maybe sit in a quiet room by yourself for this one.
