BLITZKRIEG WORKS BEST AGAINST INDUSTRIAL TARGETS THAT CAN BE SEIZED

2017-01-31 22:04:46 UTC  

EASTERN EUROPE WAS MOSTLY PRE-INDUSTRIAL

2017-01-31 22:04:52 UTC  

HOWEVER

2017-01-31 22:05:01 UTC  

HE WOULD HAVE HAD TRAINS

2017-01-31 22:05:10 UTC  

AND COULD HAVE INCREASED SHIPPING

2017-01-31 22:05:18 UTC  

BUT THIS WOULD HAVE CONFLICTED WITH SOME OTHER AIMS

2017-01-31 22:05:27 UTC  

I THINK HIS ERRORS IN THIS AREA ARE OVERSTATED

2017-01-31 22:05:35 UTC  

WHILE HIS MILITARY/LOGISTICAL ERRORS ARE UNDERSTATED

2017-01-31 22:05:44 UTC  

THE SOCIALIST BASIS OF HIS SOCIETY, HOWEVER,

2017-01-31 22:05:53 UTC  

WAS THE ELEMENT OF FAILURE: IT BECAME IDEOLOGICAL INSTEAD OF PRAGMATIC.

2017-01-31 22:08:05 UTC  

Hitler didn't fix Keynesianism. For one, the plans preempted Keynes whereupon Keynes remarked on them in his *General Theory*.

The immense debt taken on by the National Socialist state was overbearing to the point where it would have been eventually forced to take drastic action, and very well may have been. Look up their system of promissory notes -MEFO bills - and see how such a system would necessitate failure unless met with miracle.

2017-01-31 22:09:24 UTC  

And: they were not "Socialists," in the literal sense. The name "National Socialist" was a suggestion from Rudolf Jung, whom also wrote the goals and ideas of National Socialism in his *Der Nazionale Sozialismus* some years earlier. Hitler wished to call the party the Revolution Party or somesuch.

They were more akin to Fascists, but at the same time not explicitly so. A good source on this is Evola's "Notes on the Third Reich."

2017-01-31 22:11:06 UTC  

he had no goal

2017-01-31 22:11:09 UTC  

or enoguh stuff

2017-01-31 22:11:12 UTC  

to conquer russia

2017-01-31 22:11:18 UTC  

yet alone enslave the population

2017-01-31 22:11:21 UTC  

and make lebemsraum

2017-01-31 22:11:25 UTC  

he needed a million horses

2017-01-31 22:11:29 UTC  

just to get his men to the urals

2017-01-31 22:11:32 UTC  

which he didn't have

2017-01-31 22:11:39 UTC  

500,000 off road trucks

2017-01-31 22:11:43 UTC  

he had 40k

2017-01-31 22:11:47 UTC  

and 100k civilian ones that just broke

2017-01-31 22:11:49 UTC  

mostly french

2017-01-31 22:11:58 UTC  

Everyone here types in such an odd manner.

2017-01-31 22:12:00 UTC  

meant for french paved roads

2017-01-31 22:13:06 UTC  

@diversity_is_suicide Who do you think is better? The Hapsburgs or the Hohenzollerns? They could make mighty fine bedfellows if their current stock is as good as their ancient stock. Liechtenstein, Luxembourg and Austria would do well being unified with a Monarchist Germany but...some Royals might have to change their names and move to Brazil with their less than qualified offspring...

2017-01-31 22:14:01 UTC  

Hohenzollerns believed in eugenics, so there's an obvious point for them.

2017-01-31 22:15:18 UTC  

Hohenzollerns didn't breed themselves out of existence

2017-01-31 22:15:27 UTC  

they needed idiocy and war

2017-01-31 22:15:53 UTC  

What were they to do? Not honour an alliance? They did not know of the existence of enemy alliances.

2017-01-31 22:16:11 UTC  

The secret alliance system was responsible for their downfall in the war, but their inevitable downfall really came at the hands of the Jews in our revolution.

2017-01-31 22:16:26 UTC  

Nearly every leader that moved us to the Republican regime was a Jew.

2017-01-31 22:17:38 UTC  

@HonorVirtuisPraemium My own reading (not really proper research) led me to believe that the Hapsburgs (then also Lorraine) had some very fine Emperors. I like them both equally really. However, the Hohenzollerns bred some mighty bad asses for their defenses. Their last Kaizer Wilhelm II just plain made me swoon.

2017-01-31 22:18:11 UTC  

Though, he might have been a bit too eager for war...

2017-01-31 22:18:31 UTC  

Don't know if his eagerness for war is properly portrayed though, he is painted as a war monger.

OUR TYPING MAY BE ODD HERE

2017-01-31 22:45:11 UTC
