This one today is going to be a personality that was brought into my mind by few interesting characters I have come across while living in Camps. I thought they would all fit together well making this Blog a little longer than normal. When I say the word Nazi many people become offended. Understandably so it could be a little harsh of a term to describe someone you meet at work. My wager thou is if you would have a chance to meet these folks I am sure you would find the word fitting for their personality. So with the words in the next couple paragraphs I will try to give you an image of these people and why they have received the dubious title of “Nazi”. I am not here to convince you only to make statements and let you create your own perception from these images I hope you see.
The first type of Nazi I ever encountered in a camp was the “mall cop security guard Nazi.” It’s a long handle but that’s basically what they are. These would be the low-level foot solders of the Nazi army. Untethered Cronies sent to do all the dirty work. They are the crowd control and a constant visual presence of the regime. Shortly after entering camp you will meet the (I wish I was a real cop but I have a criminal record or an unstable mental condition) security guards. More often than not they seemingly tend to be that guy from high school who nobody took seriously. He’s the guy who somehow managed to have the one marble left in his head that kept him from walking into class with a gun. Now all grown up with the exception of still living at home and playing World of War craft in all his spare time. He has found a source of income that allows him to feel a sense of authority while at the same time supporting his ever-growing action figure collection. He loves to get right in your face knowing if you say one bleep of a word to him he can get on his ever present safety blanket walkie talkie. Calling his flashlight wielding gang of dungeons & dragons buddies to have you escorted off the property. He truly gets off on searching your belongings with his O.J. Simpson leather gloves touching your underwear and asking you questions with no correct answer. With their snap at any moment tendencies, clearly unstable mental state and desire for complete control over the camp. “Mall cop security guard Nazis.” win the title of foot solider Nazi.
Next I looked inside the camp again to find the next group of Nazis in hiding. Usually at the end of the food line handing out bowls of soup is the Camp Kitchen Nazi. Both male and female versions of this Nazi control the food intake of all camp residents. There position of control would label them to be the SS Nazis. The males tend to be the ones who want to issue your food intake down to the exact calorie. Seemingly wanting to keep you weak enough to be easily stopped in case of uprising due to the food that is served. Spewing propaganda at you in the forms of fresh fruit pictures that you have never seen available to eat and nicely laid out tips for dieting where the items also never appear on the menu. They keep you chasing that imaginary dream of well being and picturesque health while constantly crushing it with another meal of high carb and fat intake meals. Mmmm perogies again! Left lethargic and lazy there is no resistance. Stepping out of line and asking questions such as “Could I get that pork chop with no fat on it?” Absolutely infuriates the Kitchen Nazi. He will then take his frustration out on the next 5 people in line by finding the smallest pork chops in the tray for your friends. Thus the divide and conquer method so well used by the Nazis is imposed by our very own chef of the SS.
The female Kitchen Nazi is a lot more direct with her offensive attacks. Remarks to people like “ I don’t think you need anymore food on that plate.” Or the dead stare at girl’s hips with a snide look on her face when adding lasagna to the plate. She uses tactics of verbal and mental humiliation to break you. Constantly searching for signs of rebellion and turning one person on another for her own personal amusement. One of her techniques is using a nice steak for the Nazi rats plate in front of you in line and then giving you that dried up piece of grizzle. You leave the line wondering who that dick was and how he got such a better meal. Once again succeeding in their plan for unrest and instability.
Now we get to the Adolph of the bunch. This is the man behind the podium conducting meetings with the moustache. He tells you that you are not good enough and you will never be good enough! Breaking spirit and moral for 14 days is his game. He sees everyone as a number and will sacrifice as many as it takes to make his point. This is the “Superintendent Nazi”. You can never measure up to the set standards it is futile to even attempt. If you come close to the line they will simply increase the standard and punish the rest creating complacency. Little brother is always watching. There is the constant reminder that the door you came through to get here you can head right back out. Creating chants and group activities everyday to slowly brainwash the masses into a lull of work, work, work. This is the created utopia of this madman. Propaganda by plastering signs with words like “COMPLY.” and “CONFORM.” For your viewing pleasure every morning and limiting free time and social gatherings this Nazi has created an environment of social control. You must become apart of his (Safety Culture). He creates programs that reward simpletons for turning on their coworkers. Siding with them and asking for them to “Help me, help you, work safer.” he claims. Tell me when you see someone step out of line and I will give you rewards that make you the envy of your group. Then smashing any sign of rebellion before it can grow out of control with famous 3 step methods of detention and repercussion. Techniques of population control and tradesman genocide are rampant while under his control.
I truly hope that you can now see where the word Nazi used in this sense is not brash. Instead looking at this as reveling of the true nature of the beast and the intentions to create a numbed society of builders for their corporations and big business. Little brother is watching you.
Cheers!
