It turns out as Jews - as human beings but especially as Jews - we must express our gratitude.

So here goes.

Thank you, Kielce. Thank you, Odessa. Thank you, Kiev and Lwow. Thank you Kishinev. Thank you to the Crusaders. Thank you, Adolph Hitler, may God blot out your name, but thank you. Thank you oh fine people of Bialystock and Gomel. Thank you Ferdinand and Isabella. And thank you to so many more kind people and communities of the world, and especially Europe, who were kind enough over the past couple thousand years to enact pogroms against the Jewish people!

According to a member of the Polish Parliament, Janusz Korwin-Mikke, pogroms are good and the Jews benefited form them. It is a form of natural selection and the pogroms throughout history took the weak and made the Jewish people stronger.

I must add, thank you Janusz. Thank you Poland.

Poland wants to deny its involvement in the Holocaust and portray itself as just another victim of the Germans (which it also was), yet members of the Polish government also think pogroms were good for the Jews.

Korwin-Mikke was trying to make a point about Corona virus being useful as a form of natural selection and getting rid of the weak, thus making humans stronger. He compared that to the history of pogroms against the Jewish people.

Thank you.

Ah, those were the days. We really had it good back then. Nowadays, with hardly any pogroms any more, we are just weak. Weak, weak weak.
