Life sucked for almost everyone in Germany for 20 years.

LA looks like hell

Not just the poor.

The main reason why we do not show off our amazing military technology is that as soon as someone knows it CAN be done, the reverse-engineering takes less time.

If LA was red it will be the same nothing will be better _

Weimar Germany didn't show off their military because there literally wasn't one. I'm not sure what you're getting at.

It was mandated they didn't have one.

Including civilian arms.

It took 20 years of pain. Yet for us it took 1 year. To get to the same place

We are not in the same place.

This is not The same place.

It was a tangent.

Yes. It. Is.

So I will digress.

Wow

I am a veteran.

Ok

Germany effectively became a serf to Europe.

We are nowhere near that.

Hobbled

Hobbled and forced into subservience.

And debtor imprisoned

And with no money.

Basically you had monopoly men, and everyone else was starving.

Lol we keep saying the same thing at the same time. I'm waiting now.

Probably went to sleep

And you know the first thing to happen to those monopoly men when Hitler took power? You guessed it.

And guess who tended to be the monopoly men?

People 'good with money'?

People not bad with money I guess.

People with a different culture and therefore different views on finances is the best way to put it, and the most PC.

This is what led to Hitler thinking that these certain people were all criminals and crooks, and taking advantage of the German people.

Begin: Nationalism.

Yup.

Nationalism = fascism?

Not inherently.

Can absolutely lead to it though.

Agreed

Can also abhor it.

I think you mean nazbol.

Anyone been having problems with the postal service?
