The astonishing life and legacy of Ferdinand Porsche
« on: September 09, 2026, 11:01:37 AM »
I enjoyed reading through Porsche history, hope you do too.

Whilst Porsche was undoutably a genius at auto design not all of it is pleasant reading, especially the Nazi party associations.

I have a feeling there won't be some pleasant reading in the future what's
going on now. I wonder if Ferd believed in what the Nazi's did or just to survive the
times
Mark Twain once opined, "it's easier to con someone than to convince them they've been conned

The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.
George Orwell
1984
