Acrdg to Erich Ebermeier, a lawyer and wrer who viewed Hler's ary fil years later: 'Dpe his bravery towards the enemy, bee of his homosexual activy he lost out on a promotn to non-missned officer. Machtan says that Hler was particularly drawn to Rudolf Hs, his puty, who was known party circl as 'black Emma' and wh whom he had spent months Landsberg, then, did the Nazis persecute homosexuals, sendg hundreds of thoands of them to their aths labour mps and the gas chambers?

Around 15, 000 gay people were sent to ncentratn mps, where some were experimented upon bizarre efforts to fd a “cure” for sexual orientatn, a forhadowg of Amerin psychologil and later fundamentalist efforts to try the same thg. Some of Machtan’s most impassned crics are gay historians who are unrstandably ncerned that any nnectn between homosexualy and the man who began WW2 and butchered lns is about the worst thg that uld happen to the e of gay pri.

'Gay hostel': It has long been known that Hler spent three years at this men's hostel Birgten, Vienna his early 20s, which acrdg to the file had 'a reputatn of beg a place where elrly men went search of young men for homosexual pleasur'The Office of Strategic Servic fil, a precsor of the morn CIA, then claims the hostel had 'the reputatn of beg a place where elrly men went search of young men for homosexual pleasur' rmatn about Hler's sexualy was provid by a Ernst Sedgwick Hanfstaengl, a German-Amerin who had been a close iend and nfidant of Hler's durg the 1920s and eventually fell out of favour wh Hler and the Nazi learship, and fled to Bra after which he fected to the U.

Acrdg to the report this belief was strengthened upon learng that 'Hs's nickname among homosexual members of the party was "Frale Anna" and that was notor that he had attend balls drsed female attire' is then scribed as a 'sado-masochistic type of man wh possibly even a homosexual streak him.

At the centre of this myth were claims, eher that Hler surround himself wh homosexuals – although Ernst Röhm was ually the only one they uld name – or that the Führer was himself homosexual. Th: ‘Roehm is a notor homo-sexual, and he has equently abed his ary power as a supreme master over young men a terrible manner’; and, a ltle further down the list: ‘[Edmund] He belonged to the circle around the homo-sexual Roehm’ and was therefore, lerally by associatn, homosexual himself.

GAY MEN UNR THE NAZI REGIME

This list uld be prolonged to hundreds, for one lunatic office giv another lunatic a post; one murrer, who is a Police Chief, mak another murrer a Capta of Police; one homosexual ‘youth regenerator’ mak another homosexual his A. There is hardly much pot argug, on the ntrary, that lunatic, murrer and homosexual alike – if one really mt lump them together – are likely to avoid appotg lunatics, murrers and homosexuals, rpectively, for fear of drawg attentn to themselv.

Röhm’s homosexualy uld be overlooked so long as he remaed eful; the moment he did not, beme a reason for gettg rid of him – as is ma perfectly clear this entry Goebbels’ diary:.

'THE PECULIAR SEX LIFE OF ADOLF HLER' OFFERS SIGHT TO THE DICTATOR'S GAY PARTNERS

But the myth of llective perversn had a purpose to serve the anti-Nazi stggle – which was rarely noticeably pro-homosexual self – and the facts of the matter uld be allowed to lie fallow.

ADOLF HLER WAS GAY

A measured, if brief, examatn of the qutn of Hler’s possible homosexualy tak place Karl Billger’s book Hler Is No Fool (undated, but apparently wrten 1939). ’ a subsectn head ‘The Bachelor’ discs the mours of homosexualy, impotence and syphilis: ‘Almost all of them are whout foundatn, bee those who really know will not or n no longer tell.

He mentns the open homosexualy of Röhm and He – ‘The i which they held almost publicly more than once aroed storms of prott wh the Nazi Movement self’ – and the fact that Count Helldorf’s affair wh ‘the adventurer Hansen, alias Steschneir’ did not st the former his job as Berl’s chief of police. Yet, spe the signs of dulgence towards homosexualy wh Nazism – ‘He protected his followers as long as he believed he was sure of their fahfulns’ – Billger nclus by reeratg that ‘there is no known basis for the assumptn that Hler himself is homosexual – or ever has dulged homosexualy.

NETFLIX EXPOS THE SECRET GAY HISTORY OF NAZI GERMANY

Homosexual, impotent, mono-tticular or fted wh syphilis – Hler’s manift cleverns had to be unrmed by creatg the imprsn of a volatile hysteric whose polil perversy had origs sexual perversn. For a while, the homosexualy of Ernst Röhm was a favoure topic among left-wg journalists, attractg a range of negative rpons om ridicule to moral outrage, all signed to unrme the broar Nazi claim to social disciple and moral superry. Fally, the left-wg poet and journalist Kurt Tucholsky wrote a short say for Die Weltbühne (26 April 1932) straightforwardly entled ‘Röhm’, which he ma a simple and rather touchg plea for the homophobic propaganda to stop.

It is not clear whom he means by ‘we’ his climactic peroratn – is vaguely possible that he is a homosexual intifyg wh fellow homosexuals, but more probable that he means fellow leftists, which se he is overstatg the Left’s mment to homosexual law reform – but his rhetoric requir the llective first person to remd the Left of the requirement for solidary:. His argument that Röhm is, as were, a ‘good’ homosexual and servg of the urty of a private life nnot have rried much weight anti-Nazi circl, where the slightt ht of sexual sndal among men who had laid such a substantial claim to the moral high ground would be veloped to s fullt propagandistic potential.

In a sense, Tucholsky’s terventn nnot be accepted as valid the stggle agast Nazism; but is a timely and persuasively genero ntributn to the argument about homosexual equaly.

WHY THE MYTH OF THE “GAY NAZI” IS BACK CIRCULATN

He do, though, allow one way which the knowledge about Röhm’s homosexualy n legimately be ed agast the Nazis while not beg ed agast homosexuals: ‘If Goebbels screech or Hler thunrs about the moral y of morn tim, then should be poted out that there are obvly homosexuals among the Nazi troops.
