TBF so is IBM (actual Nazis, not just fascist fanboys).

No shit? Like historically or up through the modern era or newly so or what?

Historically. IBM provided tech and expertise facilitating the holocaust.

I was considering if I should work for IBM. Maybe I need to do a little reading on that, any sources you recommend?

[–] TipRing@lemmy.world 10 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Edwin Black's book IBM and the Holocaust is the principle source. IBM denies this accounting but I found Black's case compelling and his book cites primary sources in the form of Nazi documents and eyewitnesses in Poland.
