And all they got was a slap on the wrist.
Capitalism and fascism have always been good to eachother.
Being successful at either requires a total lack of morals and ethics.
Unfortunately not uncommon traits in humans.
actually extremely uncommon traits in humans, which is why it took hundreds of thousands of years for it to get this bad, and why our species is still alive despite it.
Mercedes!
They also made tanks
I think they were referring to originally Jewish-owned companies that were taken over. Aren't these or at least some of these founded by the nazis themselves?
Volkwagen was a (Nazi) state founded company. It is one reason why the Nazis were popular because they genuinely gave people jobs with re-industrialisation (albeit on borrowed time because of excessive government spending, and of course with how history unfolded).
Hey now, they wouldn't exist without the help of IBM, Ford, and Standard Oil.
What I hate the most is how they always try paint themselves as a family business. Little family business called BMW with 150k employees, producing millions of cars each year.
More importantly, don't ask why the same people still owned companies after 1945.
Canadian oligarchs are like either:

Also, the American oligarchβs dad owned the trees.
"What does Bloobr do, anyway?"
"It's an AI company that mines Bitcoins which represent a futures market for derivatives tied to the large stake we own in trees."
I heard in an interview that the difference between US and Britain class systems, is that the US class is based on money and the Britain class is based on bloodline.
English Aristocracy that has notadjusted for the modern world are clinging on their inbred bloodlines while their estates went into administration.
Britain is like any other westoid regime is owned a hand full of wealthy people some of whom are aristocratic but they are definitely oligarchs first and foremost.
French oligarchs: porn
Honestly, I'd take Niel as my overlord any day over the fuckers who are actually running the show.
That's a very navie perspective... Owning land is more indicative of aristocracy
German oligarchs for example are mostly Nazi nepo babies and their capital was entirely or in part a result of slave labour among other crimes.
King of England owns the swans
