    They also bought Monsanto and, if anything, ramped up the evil from THAT murderous shitshow!

    Why am I suddenly thinking about Norm Macdonald and Hitler? 😉

      Because by 1944 they used around 4500 forced labourers (foreigners, POWs) in dangerous condition. Oh, and they apparently bought 170 female prisoners, who then all died during some experiment:

      A Bayer employee wrote to Rudolf Höss, the Auschwitz commandant: “The transport of 150 women arrived in good condition. However, we were unable to obtain conclusive results because they died during the experiments. We would kindly request that you send us another group of women to the same number and at the same price.”
