Using the Nazi Approach
           to Women’s Rights

Janet Kuypers
9/26/22

During the latter years of World War Two, the
Only people who were allowed with Adolf Hitler
During meals were young women, whom were all
Instructed to keep the conversation light, so they
Wouldn’t contradict his megalomaniacal views.

During those same years, Adolf Hitler became
So concerned that enemies — and even people in
His own party — would try to kill him by poison
In his food, so he kept a rotation of eleven women
To taste his food first, in case it was poisoned.

Now, keep in mind these women had to be of good
Arian stock, even though these women were to him
Expendable enough to die, in case someone was
Trying to poison him with tainted vegetarian food.
All these women fretted daily, wondering if they were

Eating their last meal. When I explained this to someone,
They wondered why Hitler didn’t get Jews to taste
Potentially deadly food instead, if they were meant to die
Anyway... But, poison or not, I’m sure there’s no way
Adolf Hitler would ever give a Jew food fit for a Führer.

For the Third Reich had no compunction with killing
Jews, gypsies, political dissidents... but they would
Bend over backwards to keep every Arian baby
Alive, even born out of wedlock, thanks to the
Lebensborn Program, to increase their German stock.

#

Keep in mind that a Nazi-era law that came into effect
In 1933 as paragraph 219a of Germany’s criminal code*
prohibited doctors from providing information about
abortions, as “advertising” abortion services in their attempt
to, in effect, discourage women from obtaining abortions.

German conservatives from the past four governments of
Angela Merkel’s Christian right kept this law alive. Germany
Finally scrapped the law** on the same day Roe v. Wade
was overturned in the U.S.A., proclaiming a broad counterpoint
to the hazardous now-U.S. treatment of women’s rights.

And now I hear, months after this overruling, that conservative
Political candidates are now trying to make themselves
Sound more moderate in the months preceding elections***
republican candidates are even scrubbing their websites
Of any past anti-abortion rhetoric, hoping those who disagree

With them will not remember their once-assaultive views
On women — on life that’s actually living. A U.N. committee
Even slammed the U.S. abortion rights decision****, which
Disproportionately affects racial and ethnic minorities from
Safety in women’s reproductive rights issues. So, really, jump

From the U.N. to the Geneva Convention’s War crimes*****
after uncovering the extent of the Third Reich’s heinous acts
throughout WWII. The Nazi’s hatred for swaths of humanity
Seems akin to their hatred of women, in the false delusion of
Claiming to care for clumps of cells that aren’t even life instead.
