This is clearly the act of tyrannical government overreach.

Has a tank, yet gets arrested? What a bitch. He could have at least set them munitions on fire.

At 84 yeah, fuck it, take out the commie scum

[ - ] Flabbygasted 0 points 3.9 yearsAug 7, 2021 19:58:56 ago (+0/-0)

Exactly. He would have been a hero.

a statue of a naked warrior holding a sword in his extended hand that once stood outside Hitler's Chancellery in Berlin, by the dictator's favorite sculptor, Arno Breker,

ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING. THEY WERE LITERALLY ALL DESTROYED. THIS GODDAMNED HERO SAVED ONE FOR 75 YEARS AND NOW IT’S GETTING TURNED INTO FUCKING ASH.

Are there any autistic Hitler paintings for sale? I'd pay as much as I could for one.

Yes. You just missed this auction in fact. https://www.invaluable.com/auction-lot/adolf-hitler-painting-alte-rathaus-bonn-germany-5311-c-edc4c59a97

Estimated between 3~6 grand. Provenance is likely solid if you buy from a well known dealer. But that's never a guarantee and you'd want to look at the documentation proving it's origin.

[ - ] Doglegwarrior 4 points 3.9 yearsAug 7, 2021 14:18:29 ago (+4/-0)

Holy shit I can get a Hitler painting for 6 grand!!!!

[ - ] TheViciousMrPim 0 points 3.9 yearsAug 7, 2021 14:37:37 ago (+0/-0)

Surprising to me too. This goes against everything I'd expect. Or I Would expect maybe.

A comparison, the only other comparable artist, a painting by another world leader of the same time and the auction at the same basic time. Churchill https://www.invaluable.com/auction-lot/sir-winston-churchill-o-m-r-a-1874-1965-chartwell-46-c-8b7496981b

£2~3 million

[ - ] Hey_guys_whats_up 2 points 3.9 yearsAug 7, 2021 16:28:21 ago (+2/-0)

That's because Hitler's painting's sell for the actual value and not as some money laundering scheme. Literally all big art deals are just under the table payments. Kill all modern artists they are pedos.

Yupp.

Ok I just sold a property I have some extra cash I will be signing up for this auction if they have another one come up for sale I see now way it goes down in value

[ - ] Tallest_Skil 2 points 3.9 yearsAug 7, 2021 12:32:10 ago (+2/-0)

I think the surviving ones are all either privately owned (and not selling) or stored in museum archives (and not for sale).

I share your rage
this shit pisses me off more than the Swedish Viking artifacts getting melted

How did it get to the point where the local authorities learned about it? Did someone talk, or were there just rumors, and the government overextended its authority and searched his house?

Fucking Germany.

He or someone close to him probably mentioned something near a smartphone.

[ - ] GrayDragon 1 point 3.9 yearsAug 7, 2021 15:15:26 ago (+1/-0)

The bottom of the article says the mayor knew about the tank since 1978 because the owner used it as a snow plow once. If the mayor knew, the town knew. Some modern snowflake probably ratted him out.

Dang, you're right. It's a shame someone couldn't keep his or her mouth shut.

The time of that honor is over. It is time to kill.

So the guy could raise 10 million easily selling the Hitler stuff

[ - ] drhitler 9 points 3.9 yearsAug 7, 2021 12:17:51 ago (+9/-0)

The court ruling, ordered on 2 August, stated that the man must sell or donate the tank and anti-aircraft cannon to a museum or collector within the next two years, the BBC report.

Is he not a collector?

[ - ] NigsGonnaNog 4 points 3.9 yearsAug 7, 2021 14:02:14 ago (+4/-0)

(((collector)))

Bursted out laughing.

I can see the judge doing airquotes as he hands the sentence lol.

The criminalization of art makes me cringe. They are actively suppressing the art of Arno Breker.

Yeah that math is 100% accurate, I’m certain.
