I get what you’re saying. It’s hard to believe a whole nation could just go along with something as horrific as genocide. But the truth is, this kind of thing has happened more than once, and it’s not just some theory. It’s real history.

Look at Rwanda in 1994. The mass killings of the Tutsi population weren’t done in secret. People knew. There were radio broadcasts straight-up telling people to go out and kill their neighbors. Entire communities took part. Others stood by and let it happen.

Same thing in the Balkans during the 90s. Towns and villages saw people getting rounded up and sent to camps or executed. This wasn’t just soldiers acting behind closed doors. Regular people were aware, and some even helped make it happen. Others just didn’t do anything to stop it.

Even right now in China, millions of Uyghurs are being detained in camps. This isn’t some hidden conspiracy. People inside the country know. Some justify it. Some ignore it. Some pretend it’s not happening because it’s easier that way.

The idea that "normal people" couldn’t have known about the Holocaust just doesn’t hold up. History keeps showing us that mass atrocities don’t happen in total secrecy. People always know more than they admit. Not everyone is actively involved, but silence and looking the other way help make these things possible.

It’s not about saying every German citizen was a monster. It’s about facing the fact that a lot of people knew and still let it happen. It’s not some crazy idea. It’s just how people have reacted to genocide throughout history, over and over again.
In those cases really I'd say the ground had been laid for years beforehand pushing racism/bigotry to the point were enough of the population was willing to go along with it or at least stand by and let it happen.

After the holocaust I think you could argue it was "convenient" to play up the idea most of the population of Germany was totally unaware of it even if only indirectly, indeed I believe it generally wasnt focused on a great deal until the 60's when Adolf Eichmann was captured by the Israelis and put on trial. Post WW2 you could argue really the western nations wanted to focus more on the cold war and wanted the West German establishment onside for that and arguably wanted to play down the extent to which anti-Semitism existed in their own nations. I'v seen arguments made for example that Hitler took direct influence from the US anti-Semitism people like Herny Ford pushed in the early 20th century(as well as plenty from White Russians).

I would say that generally a big positive of US sports to me seems to be that bigotry and links to the far right arent as common as they are over here in Europe around football/soccer, at least after direct segregation of sports ended. For years though I'v had the feeling that MMA is basically "filling the gap", offering a sport were right wing bigotry is acceptable, partly I suspect because there was an era were it was mostly a "white" sport but also in part cynically so because its a good way to build up a fanbase who otherwise struggle to be accepted in other sports. Maybe Bryce's extreme Nazi apologism isnt that common from fighters and fans(at least in public) but I suspect it exists in part because the overton window has generally been pushed in that direction for so many years across much of the sport.

Any other sport I can think of Bryce would have been gone from a major org LONG before this.
 
Good point but I said why would you be OK if Germans knew that London and French resistance people are being killed but not be OK if same thing happened to jews are jews more important to care about then French or brit resistance fighter or what

People think it was worse with the Jews because in that case they were doing it to their own citizens.
 
Its funny that he says turning on Russia is when Hitler went crazy. IIRC Operation Barbarossa was ordered in June 1940 and executed roughly a year later so according to Bryce up until 1940 Hitler was actually doing good like invading Poland and pushing Jews into ghettoes. Unreal.
Whenever he said... "through my own research... not stuff that's currently taught" you know it's just rabbit hole internet bs.
 
I disagree...

No race, gender or religion should be shielded from any type of criticism.

It's valid and okay to question anything and everything.

You don't have to agree/disagree with everyone else's thoughts and/or opinions.

If you want to have civil discourse and disprove statements - it's a free country. 🇺🇸

Trying to silence people who hold different views than you - we all go down a slippery slope of censorship and who determines what is "right and wrong".
being a racist piece of shit and holocaust denier is not simply holding a different view. it isn't a matter of opinion and debate. it's a historical fact, and a horrific one at that.

go ask the germans how they feel about this "slippery slope of censorship", and they spawned the fucking nazis. they know that the way to deal with this horseshit is to make sure everyone knows what actually happened, and to have zero tolerance for denials and historical revision on this topic. they aren't afraid of explaining to their youth that the country had a dark period, precisely so it doesn't happen again.

but in the US, a nazi salute is an expression of love for the crowd and holocaust denialism is just a different though and/or opinion.

bryce will be cut, and nothing of quality will be lost. he's a mid tier fighter and a world class imbecile.
 
Holy fuck.

He knows his boss is Jewish right?
Well maybe it explains his dislike for the jews somewhat?

But yeah, not a good look, and I say that even as I am as far from a zionist sympathiser one can get.
 
Somebody needs to get a message to Tim Kennedy & let him know that if he ever revives his tarnished name & TV show Hunting Hitler, he should start right here in this thread with some of the retarded pigs above.

Imagine arguing the holocaust wasnt real because they "ONLY killed like 1 million people & they didn't make ovens fast or big enough to convection easy bake 6 million people at once. Or that "you counted all the bones...."

Severely mentally retarded missing chromosome racist Shertards:
"The bone count is off. It ain't mathing."

History & any fully functioning person with a basic grade school level education:
"Ahhh they literally like cremated people chief....how you counting them bones??? & where did you get your time machine from???"


Sherdog sinking to a new low with this one.

It’s always a

“it never happened, and if it did they deserved it.”

Type argument.
 
Surely Dana's bosses will want him cut over this?

There is a thread in the HW about Danas response and he is not getting cut.
Dana calls him an idiot, but there will be no cut as I read it.
 
It's funny watching free speech advocates call for someone's job over wrongspeak
 
This argument is kind of annoying when people say this because we all know there is a limitation to free speech. I mean below is a great example.



If the UFC decided to cut him to protect their brand or their bottom line that would be one thing. But for people from afar, with no connection or stake in the company, wanting to see Bryce cut simply to be punished for offensive opinions...well that's just completely ridiculous. Ironically, censoring people and destroying their livelihoods over personal opinions is more in line with Nazis than anything.

Punishing Bryce for his statements about Hitler is way more dangerous to society than his actual statements
