If it works, don't fix it.

It works but does it work _because_ it's an ethnostate or despite it

Yeah, ethnostates totally work. Remember Germany? Good times. They totally didn't fail hard due to their lack of resources and incompetent management.

That's warped logic

@tim if an ethnostate exists without trouble, it's ok in my book.

@TheTeacher you mean the 3rd reich?

An ethnostate cannot exist without trouble

They'd stop being an ethnostate

Then

@tim any state cannot exist without some problems

Yes, I mean the 3rd reich.

The biggest issue with an ethnostate is who gets to be whatever ethnicity?

The first step is removing undesirables and them and keeping them out / removing them from subsequent territories annexed

@TheTeacher it fell mostly because of poor military decisions.

Let's take "white" for instance. Who is white?

@TheTeacher you could be right though.

Nazi Germany was never going to win. Germany was too small and had way too many internal strifes.

Remember, fellow Nazis tried to assassinate Hitler numerous times.

If they kept going, a civil war was immanent.

@TheTeacher that's a mistake on hitler's part

Irrelevant.

"Fault" doesn't matter. What matters is they were unstable.

He killed one of his most loyal comrades because he was a homosexual and surrounded himself with ambitious pricks

Lol

That's a hot take

The purges in the party should've been more thorough.

The other issue with Nazi Germany is they were a crappy ethnostate. There were Nazis of all races.

The "aryan race" didn't really matter.

@TheTeacher you're saying that's a bad thing?

Yes.

If you're going to build an ethnostate do it right

It shows how arbitrary race really is. I'm not saying race isn't real, it's just arbitrary.

It is what you make of it.

Hitler had a Jewish Bodyguard https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emil_Maurice

@TheTeacher Yeah

But race is not arbitrary.

Hitler had Jewish ancestors

And police for the ghettos https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jewish_Ghetto_Police

You see what's happening in africa?

And in israel?

You mean getting exploitated?
