Thousands of ordinary citizens took their own lives rather than face the shame of retribution after Hitler was defeated

All three figures in photo crunched on cyanide capsules on that day in April 1945. They did so rather than be taken alive by U.S. forces surrounding city of Leipzig. Renowned war photographer Margaret Bourke-White came across this tableau.

MannerRichard Coward to the end!

any chance of corbyn supporters doing the same?

Can’t believe how group minds can all share the same sick thoughts for years n years. Native American slaughter. Slavery. Holocaust. Female genital mutilation. Apartheid. So much more. Extra yikes!

Shazza1uk Labour don’t have that dignity

The allies defeated the Nazi's not just Hitler. 17 million diverse people were exterminated by the Nazi war machine, don't minimize that.

The power of ego

Cowards just like their leader

Even Hitler killed himself.

You mean the shame of the gallows.

Thanks pp

Jeremy Corbyn must resign within maximum of two months after Labour’s devastating election defeat, Neil Kinnock saysExclusive: Lord Kinnock says ‘Corbyn must own this devastating defeat’ He should leave now ... before the rot becomes too infested and untreatable If tories implement page 48 policies, there’ll be no getting rid. We need an EFFECTIVE & brutally on point opposition NOW. Not 2 months from now. 🤦‍♀️ Of course the proper time for Corbyn to resign is now. But when has he ever let realistic concern for the party stop him.
