With all the money he’s been raking in with Xitter, it oughta be easy to buy TikTok too. What mere government could stop the mighty Elmo?

He could have bought TikTok and renamed it X Videos.

If Elmo was thinking big, in terms of a global banking and payments system he should have bought OnlyFans instead of Twitter. There’s nothing like naked schoolteachers filming themselves having sex in their spare time to help make ends meet that makes me think “my money is safe here”.

Although admittedly a bunch of Nazis is a close second, so Elmo may be on to something with Xitter.

I value my search history too much to go looking for that. I’ll go out on a limb and guess there are websites, reddit subgroups, video clubs, and darker stuff already dedicated to that area. Probably a band name too.

I went ahead and tried it–in Incognito Mode. It seems SafeSearch is working well. The top result was an NPR article about a book involving a former Nazi art teacher and an Israeli art model. After that was an article about a Nazi schoolteacher who promoted nudism, followed by more articles on Nazis coopting the nudism movement. Then there’s one Irish schoolteacher who fled from Germany after being convicted of Nazism. Then a school teacher who led a Nazi Twitter account. There’s an forum post about a kid who dressed as Hitler for Halloween, and finally an article on Hitler Youth on a history site named “Naked History.”

Images are pretty much all historical, too. There is blurred nudity, but it’s of nudists, not porn.

Ahem …

- That movie was produced by David Friedman, an American producer.
- It was directed by Don Edwards, an American director.
- It stars Dyanne Thorne, an American porn actress.
- It was made by Lionsgate Films, an American production company headquartered in Santa Monica
- Lionsgate was formerly known as Cinépix Film Properties which was originally located in Montreal

But sure, blame Canada! 😉

Eh, less offensive than _Hogan’s Heros_. Plus _She Wolf of the SS_ never nationally syndicated.

I don’t write wiki articles; I just quote 'em.

If you don’t like it, fix it. But cite your work or the wiki police will go all Ilsa on you!

You know, Wikipedia doesn’t mention the porn part, but a little researching says it’s true!

In all seriousness, Thorne seemed like an intelligent woman who had been a singer and an actress on stage and with minor roles in a number of films. From a bio I vaguely remember reading, she ended up with the _Ilsa_ roles because she just never made it in mainstream films. Kinda sad, really.
