re: How did the Germans know who was Jewish?

A good friend of mine’s father managed to survive in Poland during the purges. His mother knew the soldiers were coming and so brought her very young son to a gentile lady she worked for. The lady kept him in the doghouse with the dogs when they were looking, for about a week or so, and when they moved on she kept him alive until after the war.

They didn't just kill Jews. They didn't just kill certain members from certain groups. Sure they wanted to get all the Jews, but they weren't crying if they 'accidentally' rounded up some Pure Germans and killed them as well. When you're hell bent on maintaining power and getting rid of your enemies, there will be a few missteps and accidental deaths.

Jews in Europe typically lived in certain districts. Despite the cheap jokes, many ( obviously not all) Jews did actually look just like their Polish, German neighbors . So a system was put into place (obviously the star) that compiled their names and addresses as well as documentation they were required to carry. False papers were an instant death penalty. Those who had non- Jewish features, with the help of others, were sometimes able to hide and migrate to a safe border via safehouses . But it was pretty easy to round up a block of a neighborhood of Jews in traditional clothing.

They slow rolled 'em with self identification and record keeping.

They used census records, tax returns, synagogue membership lists, parish records (for converted Jews), routine but mandatory police registration forms, the questioning of relatives, and from information provided by neighbors and municipal officials.
Hmmmmm.....almost sounds like what's happening here with the COVID mandates!

Papers. For some reason it was documented extensively back then.

Most if not all Jews attended synagogue, dressed or displayed certain identifying characteristics of their religion or culture. Like a Christian wearing a cross necklace. They celebrated specific holidays and lived their daily life in ways that identified them as Jewish because of the customs they took part in. Pretty simple.
Not to mention Jews like many other cultural groups tended to live in the same area and engage in the same customs in mass.
Torture was also a method they used to weed out those Jews who were trying to blend in or hide.

They had community crawfish boils and gave away free bacon McGriddles.
Anyone not interested was put on a list.

Yeah, no one really foresaw a genocide coming. So when you get asked to register as something, then wear an identifying mark, etc. you get people willing to do it before being jailed. Then when it's too late, you are on a list and they are coming for you.
Not sure Covid is a directly relatable analogy, but who knows. Certainly is relatable for gun control. It may not always be a purposeful progression, but these things lead to bad outcomes.

Anti-Semitism had been going on in Europe for a long, long time before the Nazis came along. Records were kept. Synagogue records. Census records. Birth and marriage records. Records from different Jewish sports/recreation/social societies. People would denounce their neighbors. It wouldn't have been hard to track down 95% of them. Once they invaded the east, all it took was someone to say "hey, 50% of the people in that village are Jewish," so the krauts would just wipe out the whole village or ship them off to the extermination camps.

In general?
1. The Jews tended to live in ghettos for protection, which meant it was easy to find them
2. They often tasked the people of conquered territories with turning over their Jews to them
3. Guys like George Soros and his dad would act like Hans Landa to pull Jews out from under floorboards and turn them over.

I'm not well versed in this, but couldn't they pull their pants down? Isn't that why the West began making it common practice to circumcise babies when the are born. To stand in solidarity with the Jews so they wouldn't be distinguishable?

During the holocaust, the German government defined "Jews" as anyone "non-aryan." That made it quite easy for them.

No, no it doesn’t. I’m anti vaccine mandate completely but saying this shite is fricking insulting to holocaust survivors and those that lost family and friends.
Just stop. It doesn’t help the agenda it just makes people look like insensitive morons.
