    Unironically one of the funniest “not the onion” headlines I’ve ever read. Usually they’re depressing.

    Kind of amazing in a horrific way to be a Nazi and die at the hand of communism.

      The Eastern Front happened; surely communism was one of the biggest killers of Nazis?

    I hated everything about this monument as someone who lives in the city but now I’m proud of it
