Could You be a Concentration Camp Guard?

[May 28, 2025]  Many times, I’ve written about standing up to oppose evil wherever it is found. When I speak with people on the subject of cowardice, I will ask if they could ever imagine themselves as a Nazi Concentration Camp Guard. Naturally, the all strongly deny such a suggestion and they all say they would stand against Nazism, Hitler, and the despicable genocide perpetuated under this evil ideology.

Go back twenty or even ten years ago, and I would believe them. No longer. I do not believe the majority of people in America would oppose Nazism or would resist being a Concentration Camp guard. They would joyfully be a camp guard and likely one who rallies others to the cause. So, what changed my mind?

In a Heartland Institute study, a plurality of Democrats said governments should “fine or imprison individuals who publicly question the efficacy of the existing COVID-19 vaccines” (48%).  This is, of course, sinister.  And while the study focused on differences between Democrats versus Republicans, nearly a majority of all Americans supported such measures.  This convinces me that Americans could easily approve Nazi-like concentration camps.

What also changed my mind was national observances of the five-year anniversary of the death of George Floyd. He was a nasty criminal. While he didn’t deserve death – whether by overdosing or by a police officer – we are seeing a religious-like following of this man’s death. People are prostrating themselves at the foot of his legacy.

Would you be a Nazi Concentration Camp guard?  I’m not asking “would be” but “could be” (meaning voluntarily).  I think the answer today is yes.  And being a coward makes it easy.

    Very convincing, Gen. Satterfield. Yes, only a few of us could resist being a Nazi Concentration Camp Guard. Scary as hell.

    Democrats are all about their “feelings” and there is nothing more important than feeling that they are better, more beautiful, moral, kinder, and smarter than you and me. This is a childish way of thinking and for some reason we adults tolerate or even encourage it in people, especially in young, white women. Now they are become radical,feminists and destroying their own lives because they “don’t need no man.”

      Yeah, just look at them crying at the foot of the drug addicted, criminal George Floyd statue. Pathetic! 🤮

      Right! And Dr.Peterson pointed this out (see Otto’s post below) and that those on the Leftist side tend to have a low verbal IQ and high in Negative Emotions. This means their lives are run by their feelings and their decks are emotional. Anything that goes wrong, then, by definition, has to be the fault of some one else. This is why, I believe, they are so attracted to Communism and Socialism as ideologies.

    Gen. Satterfield, you da man. I love the way you present this topic and I can appreciate that you are a student of the intellectual efforts of Dr. Jordan Peterson. He is – thank God – a man who is un afraid to tell the truth. And I also recommend your book “55 Rules for a Good Life.”

    Get yourself a copy TODAY. You will not be disappointed. The book is about “adopting responsibility.” This is a common theme with Dr. Peterson.

        Nailed it. Without an aim in life, you’ll never be able to hit your target (because you don’t have a target). Figure out what you want and aim for it. If you change your mind later, that’s okay.

        Got to have an aim 💯 in life. Else you’ll never be on track to success as measured any way.

      Indeed powerful. This is absolutely insane. Ordinary folks could not only become Nazi guards at a concentration camp but would love to do it. Gen. Satterfield comes with the receipts. Go for it sir. We love you exposing Democrat Party operatives who are really communists in disguise.
