I think the Jews felt as if they had no power at all. The Nazis took away their identity away by shaving their heads and taking their stuff. They didn’t even tell them what’s going to happen to them. The Jews prolly felt very uncomfortable standing there naked.
The Nazis used their power over Jews. There has been times where Police over use their power. When Police over use their power people will still obey to them because they do not want to get hurt. In this case the People are the Jews and the Police are the Nazis

Well, I think your analogy might better have been what happens to prisoners in jail, new recruits in the armed services' basic training, or 1st year cadets at West Point, Annapolis, and the Air Force Academy.

I perfectly understand your analogy. I liked how you inferred the Police vs the People to this scenario. Nazis only wanted to hurt them because the Nazi wanted to gain even more power, not only to abuse it. When Nazis took the Jews belongings and identity, the Nazis also branded the Jews like objects. Jews weren't considered human to the Nazis.
ReplyDeleteAbout that Police vs. People theory...
I really like that idea, but it has some flaws. If you're inferring the police with the Nazis, because Nazis abuse their power like the police do, it can be true but I wouldn't think the Nazis would be abusing power. I would think the Nazis would be showing their abuse by power. IF the Nazis were abusing their power then they would been able to blow up the whole train of Jews from other camps/places. Otherwise, really good job on the analogy. -Geza M.
Thanks for the feedback. I agree on how you say "showing their abuse by power" as that is a better way of putting it because that is what the Nazis did.
DeleteI like the part where you said "I think the Jews felt as if they had no power at all. The Nazis took away their identity away by shaving their heads and taking their stuff."
ReplyDeleteI agree with you, the Jews really didn't have power. The Germans will always be on top of them and the Germans easily had the power to just kill the Jews if they felt like it or if they wanted to. Many of the Jews had to go trough this. They had to leave there family and they went into concentration camps not knowing if they were going to die or survive. I also agree with you when you said that the Nazis where like police. It's true Jews didn't have an other option but obey to the Nazi. It's sad how the Nazis will take an advantage of the power they had to torture the Jews. This is a good thing to sad because we see how the Jews were torture and maybe some of us can relate to this.
