Actually it wasn't. To the Nazi's it was just a lie to not have huge panic when people would enter the concentration and death camps. The victims would all think its a labor camp, not that half of them will be murdered and the other half enslaved and starved.
The original meaning of the words was to set people's minds free by doing labour. I'm sure there is a nice english word for it but i can't come up with one right now.
Another question: Did the Japanese have signs in their camps?
Well, there's the Benedictine slogan "Laborare est orare", but that's neither English, nor quite the same thing.The original meaning of the words was to set people's minds free by doing labour. I'm sure there is a nice english word for it but i can't come up with one right now.
