You guys have mics?

yep

Join me in general 1.

Not at the moment no, I’m out of the house looking for something

In case anyone saw that cringy video where Arnold Schwarzenegger compared the capitol incident to the "night of broken glass" and didn't know what he was talking about...
**THIS** is what he was comparing it to:
https://www.history.com/topics/holocaust/kristallnacht

That is not what id compare the capitol incident to

the last 8 months? definitely

That’s what I thought when I read above. The BLM riots was way closer.

Thank you, at least someone actually said it. Also it’s like everyone saying to me “Trump’s worse than Hitler” Hitler killed 6 million of my people so no despite any opinions on Trump, statistically Hitler is still pure evil who realistically shouldn’t be compared to

People like Stalin weren't better, despite what idiots on the left said, he also attacked poland from the other side out of a grudge over the russian defeat at least 20 years earlier

FINALLY...someone else knows that Hitler and Stalin tag-teamed Poland....

And that’s a good point and Stalin is one of a few in history who you can compare to Hitler because both were evil cunts

My god..I have history professors trying to tell me differently and I’m like..
“What....no!? Hitler and Salian had the Soviet-Nazi Non-aggression pact.”

The Molotov-Ribintrov pact

Most likely spelt that wrong

But for real the ones comparing more regular and level headed people and politicians to Hitler are those that didn’t do too well in history class

If I’m correct it’s a type of way to win people on your side....it’s like, I don’t know how to phrase it precisely, a real thing where you brainwash people by mind tricking them by following some steps... I think 5-7, not for sure.
1) talk about the other person.
2) mention what they believe.
3) ask the audience, “ring a bell?” “Who else said that” etc.
4) point out Hitler/ Stalin
5) “compare” their beliefs

I’m confused

How does anyone remotely versed in history *not* know that the USSR attacked Poland as well

The first stages of Barbarossa were in Poland iirc

History teachers/ professors are leaving it out. Like my cousin in high school (the same one I graduated from 3 years ago) is now having it to where any WW2 information is only about the USA joining the war till it ends...the “night of knives” “bullbeer March” and etc are being left out. Even the Nazi swastica is being dropped.

Also they tend not to focus on the Soviet Union. Especially on collage campus’ because it’s a hard task to pump communist ideologies into students but then properly condemn the USSR. Also as an aside because The Allied powers sided with The Commenturn (again poor spelling my apologies) not out of a love for the USSR but because Hitler broke the pact with Stalin and “the enemy of my enemy is my friend” so any enemy of Nazi Germany is The Allies Friend. However thanks to the Cold War the involvement of the USSR is often downplayed so rather than Germany and Russia invading Poland it’s simply phrased as “Germany invaded Poland” at least that’s how it was taught to me in Secondary school which is the British equivalent to high school

Technically it starts with Germany invading poland, just that Russia joined in a little after that

The British East India Company had control of India from 1757 to 1857, so could the East India Company be considered the first real example of Anarcho-Capitalism?

just an interesting thought that came to my mind

It's interesting how no one really talks about the Soviets invading Poland. If i recall correctly, it happened 16 days after Germany did, (i may be incorrect).

The first reports of Russians entering polish territory were documented to be roughly 2 weeks after the initial invasion by Germany

So by sheer nature the soviets are overshadowed by the Nazis because they was there first

who like roman empire

Don’t fool yourself. Calling Hitler Pure evil is absolutely wrong. I’m not defending the man, but when you call a man a monster, you must keep in mind that he is in fact man. Know that saying ,”Perhaps the greatest trick the devil pulled was convincing everyone that he didn’t exist”? That principle applies here

People - human beings are capable of tremendous good and terrible evil.

I would also point who on first place allow him to take "power" in Germany

Weimar Republic

Yes it happen on 17/09/1939 My grandfather twas taken as a prisoner of war by soviets

i am sorry to hear that

he run away than German caught him and he spent 4 years in Dachau, but he survive

Fascism is the result after the inevitable faillure of Communism. See modern China for details.

Fascism is evil, and it's awful in virtually every way. But at least it's workable.

That's not a defense of Fascism, merely an indictment of Communism.

well, not necessarily. Hitler and Mussolini were Fascists and they were an authoritarian force to fight the authoritarian Communists

That's a non sequiter.
