It’s hard to imagine Viktor Frankl beating someone to death with his bare hands, but had he still been alive this would have been the occasion.
Really, though, this is Gutfeld sending props toward Ben Shapiro and all the other kapos supporting Fox nation and American fascism.

“Maybe you learned a new skill” goes right with Florida’s take on slavery too. The far right sure care a lot about whether people are “useful” or not.

Ironic, since so many of their ilk only seem “useful” as tools, to spread mindless hatred and willful stupidity.

Well, yeah. That was the whole context of the discusson; a Jewish guest co-host thought it was gross that Florida educational guidelines implied slavery provided job training benefits to Black people and said it was kind of like implying Jews benefited from the forced labor of concentration camps. Gutfeld’s reaction was “yeah but they kind of did tho–”

As a descendant of a German-Jewish family (on one side of the family), I would like to request a few minutes alone with this gentleman in a windowless room.

Forced labor for the likes of Krupp, Audi, and Henkel wasn’t slave labor, it was job training.

White men are inherently useful because they can make white children! Or they would if more white women wanted to devote their entire lives to servitude and pumping out babies, but feminists have somehow convinced them not to want that.

And they can also be cannon fodder in endless wars; you’re right!

I don’t imagine when they were lining people up next to open pits at Babi Yar they were checking to make sure no skilled tradesmen were stripped of their clothes and executed.

Fox news, advocating being useful to fascists since 1996.

The lady seems to be drawing a correct parallel of the absurdity to suggest slaves or Jews somehow benefited (eg learned skills) as slaves/in concentration camps. And then Gutfeld puts on the fascist clown make up and says, “If you completely misinterpret/understand this book, that’s actually possible!”
Jesus Christ!

This is really Victim Blaming for Advanced Students.
“The Nazis murdered us!”
“Gee, well, if you’d been more useful to them, maybe they wouldn’t have had to. Did you think about that?”
Gutfeld’s thinking on this matter sheds a disturbing light on the kind of autocracy that he and his friends are apparently planning for us.

How did Viktor Frankl make himself useful?
None of Frankl’s obituaries mention the unqualified and unskilled brain lobotomy and trepanation medical experiments approved by the Nazis that Frankl performed on Jews who had committed suicide with an overdose of sedatives, in resistance to their impending arrest, imprisonment and enforced labour in the concentration camp system. The goal of these experiments were to try and revive those who had killed themselves, Frankl justified this by saying that he was trying to find ways to save the lives of Jews. Operating without any training as a surgeon, Frankl would voluntarily request of the Nazis to perform the experiments on those who had killed themselves, and once approved - published some of the details on his experiments, the methods of insertion of his chosen amphetamine drugs into the brains of these individuals, resulting in, at times, an alleged partial resuscitation, mainly in 1942 (prior to his own internment at Theresienstadt ghetto in September, later in that year). Historian Günter Bischof of Harvard University, suggests Frankl’s approaching and requesting to perform lobotomy experiments could be seen as a way to “ingratiate” himself amongst the Nazis, as the latter were not, at that time, appreciative of the international scrutiny that these suicides were beginning to create, nor “suicide” being listed on arrest records.
Of course someone from Fox News would think that performing lobotomies for the Nazis is a positive thing.
