After germany took over Poland, blonde haired children was taken to be 'germanized' and taught from a young age to be nazi supporters.
Homosexuals had to wear pink triangles to show 'what they were' so that they could be humiliated further in camps.

Nazis believed to be homosexual were also sent to camps, sometimes even in their uniform and badges.
Jehovah's Witnesses, Gypsies, Homosexuals, Poles, Those with disabilities or deformities, Romanies, and any one considered to be against the nazi party or germany were also victims of the Holocaust
