I scrolled through the Twitter thread of these ACP folks and I found this exchange:

    Here’s a link to that thread so you can read those excerpts Volkvulture cited. For some reason I can’t post the screenshots. It’s WILD.

    There’s also this guy that is just as insane. I don’t know what to do with this and I have no idea where the fuck they are getting this information.

    Not surprised just look at the Nazism article on InfraWiki where they say Hitler was a queer anarchist movement and they don’t source their “evidence” that Hitler was gay.

    The Pink Swastika (which I see that Joseph Howard Tyson cited) is a notoriously unreliable source, and even if a few blokes claimed to have sexual relations with Adolf Schicklgruber, it is plausible that their testimonies were based on dreams or hallucinations, or they simply made them up. Schicklgruber was a fairly notorious politician in the Weimar Republic, so there were motives to spread scandalous rumours about his sex life.

    Apart from noting the scarcity of corroborating evidence, it also helps to compare with men from that era who were certainly gay, e.g. Alan Turing. It is common for homosexual and bisexual men to show signs early in life that they are attracted to the same sex, and the trail of clues tends to persist throughout their lives. A few strangers claiming to have sexual interactions with a controversial politician in a particular time of his life is not overwhelming evidence.

    There were a few homosexual and bisexual men who chose to side with the Fascists. Nonetheless, a high-ranking Fascist’s sexual interactions with other men is nothing greater than a rumor; the ‘proof’ available is too meager and too uncompelling to be confirmation. Quite honestly, I don’t see how this matter is more important or even more interesting than, say, his experiences throughout World War I.

      Always appreciate your detailed comments! I have never heard of this Pink Swastika book, but briefly reading the Wikipedia page shows me just how bad it is. I saw that there is a rebuttal called The Annotated Pink Swastika which I will read eventually. I don’t know who Joseph Howard Tyson is but it seems like he has written a bunch of books, one titled “Fifty-Seven Years of Russian Madness” which is… interesting. Your comment does keep me sane, it really does make no sense as to why these supposed “communists” believe in something that is so clearly fictional. Wasn’t the Weimar Republic pretty good when it comes to LGBTQ+ stuff? I mean, for the time obviously.

      I do not know what those excerpts these people cite in their tweets are from (are they from the Pink Swastika book?) but they are confusing.

      And annoying as hell. I wonder if he’s a plant to make communists look bad, because this is definitely not great…
