Greg has already, I believe, chronicled Deutsche Bank’s history as the premier bank of Nazi Germany. John D. Rockefeller’s goons threw harmless German professor Rudolf Diesel off a passenger ship because biofuels (and therefore Diesel) were a serious competitive threat to John D’s petroleum fuels. And the list goes on and on. 20th Century corporations are known for being completely mercenary and amoral, and not much has changed with regard to some of today’s corporations.

If one can read anything about a person from a photograph, I'd say, yeah, Magda had more than a few screws loose. The look says, "I can't wait until ADOLF sees this to see how many Aryans I've had to support him!!" As the 4channers might say, "Obvious insanity is obvious."

Children Turning Away From Criminal / Corrupt Family Legacy Towards Morality

There are Kennedys. There are John and Ocean Robbins, who spurned the Baskin-Robbins legacy. Mary Trump. Rockefellers. If you look at a tainted rich family, pay attention to the children and grandchildren who are treated within the family like the black sheep. That’s where you’ll find the converted family members, the “saints” if you will (can’t find a better label just now).

I knew about Göerring’s relationship to BMW but didn’t realize anything of the ex-husband. It’s another story of white male billionaires and their shenanigans.

At the risk of sounding like Chakra Con (Twitter's brilliant nickname for Maryanne Williamson) I'm affirming no, there is currently a shift in consciousness and while injustice and evil appear to be winning I do believe in the long run they will be vanquished and desire for wholeness and inclusiveness will prevail. I fight my fear of evil being more powerful every day but I don't have the luxury of accepting and internalizing despair or cynicism.
