Last person that hid Frank family has passed

Miep Gies was from one of the many families that hid Jews from the Nazis in Holland during WWII, Gies was the one who kept Anne Frank's now famous diary when Anne and her family were captured by the Nazis and sent to the concentration camps.  Two of the people in the network Gies operated with were also arrested because of the same informant that revealed the Frank family.  During the time Gies held the diary, she refrained from reading it, which according to her, saved the writings,

Mixed into the entries were the names of the Dutch helpers, who risked their lives to keep the family's secret.

"I didn't read Anne's diary papers. ... It's a good thing I didn't because if I had read them I would have had to burn them," she said in the 1998 interview. "Some of the information in them was dangerous."

She handed the writings to Otto Frank, who was the only member of the Frank family to survive the Holocaust.  Gies was just one of thousands of Dutch citizens to hide Jewish refugees and citizens from the Nazis.

On the other end of it, we now have perennial leftist conspiracymonger douchebag Oliver Stone preparing to offer some relativist piece of shit on Hitler himself.  Says Stone,

We can't judge people as only 'bad' or 'good.'

Uh, yeah, we can, watch us.  We cannot allow relativist fucktards like Stone to go unanswered, especially now, as the generation that witnessed the horrific atrocities of the Nazi regime age and pass on.  I know Hitler's story, I know German history during the time of the World Wars, I know the story of the rise and fall of Nazism, I spent four years learning Western history, and continue to learn more daily, I don't need Stone's "context" to know that Hitler and the Nazi ideology were evil and destructive to their core.  We cannot allow moral relativists like Stone continue to undermine the public's ability to make moral judgment, not only because of the destruction it can wreak on our society today, but to honor the heroes like Miep Gies, and the victims like Anne Frank.
