Nazi War on Homosexuals. Adolf Hitler’s Nazis attacked homosexuals, using a special Gestapo branch to order police to develop “pink lists” on homosexuals all over Germany. The Nazis then arrested 100,000 homosexuals for imprisonment, and also sentenced gay men to Nazi concentration camps. The Nazi concentration camps identified prisoners wearing a pink triangular patch (rosa Winkel) on their uniforms. They were beaten, abused, tortured, killed, and their bodies were mutilated, including castration of hundreds.
At the Buchenwald Nazi concentration camp, Hitler’s Nazis performed medical experiments on homosexuals’ bodies as part of their monstrous torture on other human beings.
Nazi terrorism against homosexuals did not end with their idol Adolf Hitler.
Nazi terrorist groups continue to target and attack LGBT individuals and groups as part of the Nazi ideology. A Nazi terrorist group used a popular social network to lure in gay teenagers, then kidnap them, bully, and torture them, making videos of their humiliation to share on the public Internet. Threats and targeting of homosexuals by Nazi terror groups within the United States, Europe, and Russia remains a common theme within the goals of groups.
