That's a very impressive fire - well done!
I did NAZI that coming.
I don't know what to feel about this....
On the one hand, buring down a Nazi site, excellent! On the other, you are burning down a memory of what happened, bad. On the third hand, this place has served far longer as a beautiful tourist spot....
I think I have decided to see it as mostly positive, as it is one less site that neo Nazis can use to congregate, you can allways build a new building, and then it will have less ties to the Nazis, reducing the Nazi connection for neo Nazis, while adding the fire to the memories preserved in the site.
Yeah i feel like this article is missing some important context. That is: "Was this building used as a pilgrimage site by neo-nazis or was it used like a museum for people to learn?"
For example Mussolinis home is used like a pilgrimage site for italian nazis today. https://youtu.be/7xhwx8z8mJc?t=2608
