> I suppose you were there with Frankl and can tell us all about it and how you managed to survive.

I wasn't around for the US Civil war either but I can still tell you that the idea that it was about states' rights is nonsense.

> or did you have a superior strategy for survival?

Frankl already had a superior strategy. He made himself useful to the Nazis running the camps and was treated better than his fellow inmates.

> Your comment is a vacuous, bald assertion that Frankl is "nonesense" and his ideas were a "schtick"

Do you really want me to explain why the idea that people died in concentration camps because they had bad attitudes is nonsensical?
