European EV sales are really taking off with booming sales.

BYD’s sales grew 94 percent to 4,436, Polestar was up 84 percent to 2,405, and newcomer XPeng logged 1,034 sales, representing an increase of 259 percent from February 2024. The best-performing brand in terms of EV sales, however, was VW, whose registrations boomed 180 percent to 19,600. The German brand’s ID.4 was the third-best-selling EV… and VW,’s ID.7 and ID.3 were in fifth and sixth spot, separated from the ID.4 by Renault’s Car of the Year-winning 5.

Meanwhile, it’s really hard not to notice how Tesla campaigns to boost a German political party (AfD) affiliated with Nazism had a direct impact on the European market.

Tesla’s sales are diving headfirst into the red. In France, deliveries were down 59.4 percent compared to April last year, with just 863 vehicles sold. Denmark saw a 67.2 percent decrease, bringing the monthly total there to only 180 cars. But, as reported by Reuters, Sweden takes the prize for most dramatic plunge: sales dropped 80.7 percent, from 1,052 units last April to just 208 this year.

It’s almost like the Europeans know their history. Do you know who completely distances themselves from Nazism? Billionaire Germans.

…siblings Stefan Quandt and Susanne Klatten own more than 40% of BMW and are worth about $38 billion [thanks to their family operating] …battery factories in Berlin, where, thousands of forced slave laborers were used, including female slave laborers from concentration camps, you learn nothing about [this] history.

They hide their Nazism so they can keep all the money from it. Which goes to show how stupid Tesla was to attempt to out-Nazi the billionaires behind German brands born out of Nazism.

Buying a Tesla today in Europe would be like in 1938 inviting a Nazi soldier to come live in your garage. Who in Norway wants that? What would Knut Lier Hanson do?

Nazi children who grew up in Germany under Allied occupation know better than to build fleets of Swasticars. Elon Musk, however, was raised by a Hitler-loving family that fled to South Africa to build wealth in apartheid, turning him into a little extremist planning for a new Hitler to rise again.

A new Nazi Information Control System is being built by Peter Thiel and Elon Musk.

In 1933 William Randolph Hearst actively worked to install fascism in America. German intelligence archives reveal his Berlin bureau paid Hitler for “friendly coverage,” while Hearst personally met Mussolini multiple times, featuring him in positive newsreels. Hearst’s papers promoted German rearmament as necessary against communism. When Franklin Roosevelt investigated Hearst’s Nazi connections, the publisher mobilized his media empire against FDR. His 1934 “Red Scare” campaign spread Nazi propaganda, fraudulently claiming the strongly independent thinker Roosevelt was controlled by centralized “international Jewish bankers.”

In 1934 as a countermeasure to consolidation of data, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) fundamentally shaped American democracy through a decision that might seem technical but was profoundly political: they broke up the Hearst media monopoly and reversed the slide into America First dictatorship. Hearst had built a vast empire that threatened to concentrate information control in dangerously few hands barking nonsense about Hitler being good for the economy.

The FCC commissioners understood a deeper truth: Hitler had explicitly outlined his information strategy in “Mein Kampf”—control the narrative, then control the people. The Nazi regime’s systematic data collection wasn’t just about identity; it tracked political affiliations, religious practices, sexual orientation, and financial dealings. They didn’t just collect data—they created weighted citizen scores for targeting. By 1935, every German had a racial-political profile.

This new commission on communication safety wasn’t just about business regulation. It was about ensuring that multiple voices could reach the public airwaves to help oppose Hitler. The commissioners (who later also served in the Nuremberg trials to convict Nazis of crimes against humanity) understood that democracy depends on diverse information sources. If one unelected, unaccountable person abuses technology to control what millions hear, they control what millions may think and do.

America knew diversity was the foundation of its freedom, whereas consolidation and centralized data was for Nazism.

Contrast the freedom of decentralized data sources with what was happening simultaneously in Germany. While America was building guardrails against information monopoly, the Nazi regime was methodically centralizing all communication channels. By 1933, Joseph Goebbels had consolidated control over radio, press, and culture under the Ministry of Public Enlightenment and Propaganda. American and British intelligence officers warned Churchill and Roosevelt of the slide to dictatorship, even as Hearst tried to dupe the public into believing the opposite.

But the Nazis didn’t stop at media. They began compiling comprehensive data on every citizen, especially targeting a particular race in populations. Tax records, business registrations, property deeds, and personal information were pooled into centralized databases. This was labeled efficiency—it was really for targeting.

By 1938, the architects of government efficiency in Nazi Germany proved its lethal potential during Kristallnacht. Using the centrally compiled databases, Nazi authorities knew exactly where every Jewish business, synagogue, and home was located. They didn’t have to search—they had compiled all the data into lists. The systematic violence wasn’t spontaneous; it was directed and enabled by a method of unregulated systematic data collection.

The 1933 Nazi census was the cornerstone of this targeting infrastructure. Within months of Hitler taking power, IBM (using its German subsidiary Dehomag) helped design and execute a door-to-door racial census that created detailed “profiles” for tracking bloodlines back generations. The machine-tabulated census expanded the list of potential targets by identifying individuals with even distant Jewish ancestors to exclude and incarcerate them.

Each person was assigned a Hollerith number and categorized with specific punch-card codes—”8″ was Jewish, “3” was homosexual, “13” was prisoner of war. The cards were processed by IBM’s “Hollerith Department” running IBM machines in concentration camps throughout the Reich. As historian Edwin Black documented in “IBM and the Holocaust,” the American tech company tracked every prisoner from identification to extermination, assigning specific numeric codes for different methods of murder.

The IBM technology and its management was not merely administrative—American big tech was the operational backbone of genocide. Watson, IBM’s CEO, personally micromanaged the Nazi relationship from New York, demonstrating how American technologists have been willing partners in authoritarian systems because profit is prioritized even for mass murder.

This technological Nazi approach influenced more than Thiel and Musk’s families who rushed to hide their affiliations in a newly formed 1948 apartheid regime. The South African white supremacist state adopted identical information control methods to Hitler—racial classification databases, surveillance of “undesirable” populations, and systematic tracking. When Peter Thiel in 1977 left the Nazi expat community raising him in Africa, his German family’s wealth had “shifted” into uranium mining—the same industry that supplied Hitler’s nuclear program. Musk’s family similarly owned mines worked by Black laborers under apartheid conditions, and abruptly fled the 1988 fall of apartheid to extract and launder their ill-gotten riches in American technology. Both men had literal Nazi grandparents who steeped them in power structures that normalized aspirations for racist authoritarian data control.

Their life-long learning was to form one entity in charge of technology who can control both the narrative and the data, such that elections won’t matter and citizens lose both privacy and voice.

Back to the FCC’s 1934 decision, America created a data sharing landscape where power remained distributed by design. Local stations, independent networks, and diverse ownership ensured no single voice could dominate like in Nazi Germany. This structural safeguard continues to influence how we think about information control.

Disturbing parallels are emerging now with Peter Thiel and Elon Musk rolling out their grandparents’ plans for a Nazi regime. As The Atlantic recently reported as the new panopticon:

Trump and DOGE are not just undoing decades of privacy measures. They appear to be ignoring that they were ever written. Over and over, the federal experts we spoke with insisted that the very idea of connecting federal data is anathema… DOGE has strong-armed its way into federal agencies; intimidated, steamrolled, and fired many of their workers; entered their IT systems; and accessed some unknown quantity of the data they store.

This mirrors exactly the steps for how Nazi centralization began. Take Deutsche Stunde in Bayern, a regional Bavarian radio station that initially resisted national control. They insisted on local autonomy and editorial independence. By 1933, despite their arguments, they were forcibly incorporated into the Reich Broadcasting Corporation. Their regional identity was erased as unacceptable diversity, their independent voices silenced.

Like those German regional stations that believed they could maintain autonomy, U.S. federal agencies are discovering no quarter under an administration that has decided centralization serves totalitarian purposes. The breaking down of “data silos” today repeats the breaking down of independent broadcasting in 1930s Germany, fails to honor the creation of the FCC to stop centralization and arrest Nazism in America.

The financial corruption behind this data consolidation becomes even clearer when examining Peter Thiel’s Palantir, which has seen its valuation skyrocket from $50 billion to nearly $300 billion. CEO Alex Karp has articulated an ideology that’s far more sinister than simple profit-seeking—he’s arguing for what he fraudulently calls “authentic belief” while building systems that threaten democracy itself.

Karp’s fascist propaganda revealed in a TIME article lays the foundational self-contradicting ideology: he attacks what he calls Google’s “resistance to evil” while praising Palantir’s willingness to build targeting systems. He explicitly states that protecting free speech for Nazis (citing the Skokie march) is necessary—while simultaneously building software to track and potentially eliminate political opponents. The contradiction isn’t accidental: it’s the Nazi playbook of using democratic rights to destroy democracy.

Karp’s recent “we’re doing it” exclamation mirrors Musk’s exuberance, as these men can’t believe they are actually being allowed to replace American government with their love of Nazi totalitarian systems.

Like an abusive partner who creates chaos to maintain control, Palantir benefits from exactly the kind of social instability and authoritarian government Karp falsely claims he fears. This is like the days when America First operatives who backed foreign dictators attempted to assassinate President Roosevelt, arguing they feared authoritarianism. He warns about data collection for “an authoritarian government’s policing database”—while building precisely such systems. Palantir has openly pursued DOGE data for “real-time tracking” of non-white people for capture and control using his “kill chain” products, securing multi-million dollar contracts to do exactly what Karp claims to fear.

The Nazi regime similarly relied on companies that profited from state surveillance and targeting. IBM’s German subsidiary, Dehomag, made millions providing punch-card systems and running the census that tracked and categorized populations into death camps. IBM helped design the concrete bunkers to survive Allied bombings, so their genocide machines could maintain profitability as they ran Hitler’s agenda. When suffering becomes profit, the architecture itself becomes predatory. As Karp himself said: “If you do not feel it, you will not get it by hunting for it.” The question is: what does he feel when building systems he knows will be used for mass surveillance and targeting?

Today’s DOGE operates with identical methods to the Reich Security Main Office. Both organizations claim “efficiency” while systematically dismantling privacy protections. Both target civil servants who resist integration. Both create central databases without oversight. The key innovation isn’t technology—it’s the philosophical framework that treats data collection as benign until it becomes lethal. As one former CIA analyst warned: “The infrastructure for genocide begins with standardized record-keeping.”

The story of the FCC and the rise of the Nazi information state reminds us: the architecture of our information systems isn’t just a technical choice—it’s a foundational decision about the society we want to build. And when two Nazi families raise their boys to immigrate to America and take over the government using technology… it’s pretty clear we are overdue for another Hitler suicide.

This isn’t coincidence or loose analogy—it’s a deliberate recreation of Nazi information control systems by people who were educated in those very systems. The historical parallels are clear, the connections are documented, and the warnings couldn’t be more dire. The infrastructure for genocide has been built before. We must dismantle it now in America.
