The entire Earth's complete understanding of Rocketry is due to Nazi German Scientists of the late 1800s and 1900s.

I loved Operation Paperclip

[–] • 1 pt

i was surprised most americans had no idea about paperclip. i was even more surprised that i had no clue just how big it was. plenty to be read about their mainstream engineers (rocketry, mechanics, etc) but they kept reall fucking stumm on things like doctors.

either way, paperclip might have helped with things like the apollo program...

... but its also given us what lead to the plandemic.

non consensual human experimentation has never actually stopped, it just keeps border hopping and disappearing underground.
