The womb is still warm where it crawled out from. The infamous Zyklon B was manufactured by a subsidiary of IG Farben, now known as Bayer AG. During World War II, starting in 1941, Bayer AG (then I.G. Farben) had a chemical plant built in the immediate vicinity of the #Auschwitz concentration camp. When, in 1942, neither Soviet forced laborers nor the prisoners of Auschwitz were available, #Bayer established its own concentration camp, the Buna-Monowitz concentration camp. Due to the inhumane living and working conditions, large numbers of people died there or were murdered in the nearby gas chambers at Auschwitz-Birkenau as soon as they were no longer fit for work. The life expectancy of the inmates was less than four months, and over 25,000 people died on the construction site alone.

@Darkphoenix@universeodon.com @theteapixie@mstdn.ca Also they still parrot the line that they and the other chemical corps ain't to be blamed for the actions of #IGFarben which was left as a dead husk with all assets stripped… Despite #ZyklonB being made by #Bayer at their Plant in #Leverkusen (The same area in the compound is now a #Phosgenization plant that is surveiled with live feeds to the #OPCW) #Sackler|s copied that tactic with #PurduePharma just later…

@Darkphoenix@universeodon.com @theteapixie@mstdn.ca Granted, everyone I knew even remotely at [what used to be] #Bayer explicitly warned against it and those that had preference shares literally sold them off before the deal closure because they knew that the #Monsanto deal was a net and gross negative amidst the mountain of litigation ongoing... At most, folks at #CropSciences would've only considered buying the #patents and rights to anything but #RoundUp because that thing was burning hill of shit!
