@RyosukeAmiya It's translated in Japanese, Ryosuke! kawade.co.jp/np/isbn/978430…
Deutsche Unternehmer finanzierten das NS-Regime – und profitierten davon. Der Historiker David de Jong erklärt, warum ihre Familien bis heute zu den Reichsten zählen. trib.al/rWikVtM
@LeBuzzdilyacin1 @TheTeslaBull @JohnLeFevre There is no such assertion. Your suspicion is correct.
What @davidthejong says about Nazi fortunes, and how research into it is blocked, seems also true for colonial fortunes. The moment we @coloniallegacy started to ask where the Hamburg's wealth came from, we faced opposition, resulting in defunding by Hamburgs government
Why did it take a Dutch investigative journalist to write Nazi Billionaires?
Klaus-Michael Kühne, Germany's wealthiest man ($40B+), complaining to @derspiegel about being "put in a corner" and being treated "unfairly". All because of my reporting on Kühne's contemporary coverup of his family's & company's brutal Nazi history: spiegel.de/wirtschaft/unt…
"it’s good to remember that the uber-wealthy have typically been active agents of right wing reaction and oppression rather than mere pawns of authoritarian strongmen." @tmabrnk on Nazi Billionaires damagemag.com/2025/03/18/how…
Klaus-Michael Kühne ist der reichste Mann Deutschlands und Erbe des Logistikimperiums Kühne + Nagel. Sein Konzern wurde einst als „nationalsozialistischer Musterbetrieb“ ausgezeichnet. Wie sehr sein Konzern vom NS profitiert hat, vertuscht Kühne bis heute. #TaxTheRich

New EQUALS episode! SHADOWS OF THE PAST: Germany's Wealthiest Families’ ties with the Nazi regime. Germany's wealthiest families, behind brands like BMW & Volkswagen, had deep Nazi ties. @davidthejong reveals their dark past. Listen now: equals.ink/p/shadows-of-t…
»Das Geld und die Vermögen der Nazis wurden nicht enteignet. Jetzt haben die Profiteure und Erben der Nazis begonnen, Geld in den Aufbau der rechtsextremen AfD zu stecken«, sagt der Historiker und Buchautor Zachary Gallant im Gespräch mit Robin Jaspert. jacobin.de/artikel/nazi-p…
Jacobin spoke with Zachary Gallant, coauthor of “Nazis All the Way Down,” about how German capitalists have held on to wealth acquired through complicity in Nazi crimes and how that money continues to influence German society and politics today. jacobin.com/2025/02/credit…
Vollständiges Interview hier (paid): stern.de/kultur/kuehne-…
Dem Stern habe ich ein ausführliches Interview (€) über Kühne, die Oper, koloniale Amnesie, Artwashing und darüber gegeben, warum das Verhalten Hamburgs ein Rückschritt im Umgang in der Vergangenheitsaufarbeitung ist. @coloniallegacy stern.de/kultur/kuehne-…
Spoke with @derspiegel about the moral & historical issues re: Klaus-Michael Kühne's 330-million euro gift to Hamburg for a new opera. Kühne's family & firm @Kuehne_Nagel profited from Holocaust. Kühne, Germany's wealthiest man, tries to cover up that past spiegel.de/geschichte/mil…
my colleague Alex on how the corporations that got rich in Nazi Germany were never held to account currentaffairs.org/news/nazis-on-…
Here's a link to the exhibition: gedenkstaetten-hamburg.de/de/aktuelles/n…
Hamburg's mayor announced a 300 million euro gift today from Klaus-Michael Kühne to build a new opera. Hamburg's city hall is currently hosting an exhibition named 'Robbed before deportation'. One of the largest profiteers from those robberies? The Kühne family & Kühne + Nagel.
Der Bau und die Finanzierung einer neuen Oper durch die Kühne-Stiftung sind ein großartiges Geschenk für die Stadt, die Kultur und die Opernkunst in Hamburg - und sie sind ein “Glücksfall” für den Steuerzahler. Ich danke Klaus-Michael Kühne für dieses außergewöhnliche Engagement.
“Though both Hitler and Hugenberg were fiercely anti-Communist, antidemocratic, anti-immigrant, and anti-Semitic, their attempts at political partnership failed spectacularly and repeatedly.” Timothy Ryback on Hitler's relationship with his oligarchs: theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…
