He was part of a coalition government, then out maneurvered the others.

2017-11-22 03:28:08 UTC  

Then he moved up and siezed all power.

2017-11-22 03:28:08 UTC  

he was one of like 8 leaders,

2017-11-22 03:28:16 UTC  

If they didn't appoint him chancellor they would have feared riots from the SA which was stronger than the German military at that time.

2017-11-22 03:28:45 UTC  

He gained his political following through radical action and street violence, not "appealing to normies"

2017-11-22 03:28:47 UTC  

His people were the vanguard of a revolution. Germany's best, they didn't let just anyone in

2017-11-22 03:29:01 UTC  

they fought off the commies and projected power

2017-11-22 03:29:02 UTC  

Partially true.

2017-11-22 03:29:14 UTC  

He also worked with in the system though.

2017-11-22 03:29:21 UTC  

🤔

2017-11-22 03:29:23 UTC  

He used the system when it suited him

2017-11-22 03:29:40 UTC  

What part of having a standing paramilitary army constitutes "working within the system"?

2017-11-22 03:29:43 UTC  

He ran for President (In which he lost to Hindenburg)

2017-11-22 03:29:46 UTC  

Okay so let's say this - if Hitler won through the system over 70 years ago, does that mean we can win today?

2017-11-22 03:29:57 UTC  

If your answer is anything but "no", you are clueless.

2017-11-22 03:29:59 UTC  

Many parties in Germany had Paramilitary wings

2017-11-22 03:30:03 UTC  

and when it didn't, he used the ancient principle of "Might makes right"

2017-11-22 03:30:21 UTC  

@Hadrian sidebar: I don't think the pitchfork-and-gear would work as a national flag, personally

2017-11-22 03:30:21 UTC  

It wasnt just the NSDAP.

2017-11-22 03:31:14 UTC  

@The Inquisitor [☧] We could possibly come up with something better, or a related motif. Its not the greatest flag I've ever known, but I wouldn't hate it

2017-11-22 03:31:26 UTC  

it works as a party flag, but not a national one

2017-11-22 03:31:54 UTC  

national flag needs lots of swastikas tbh.

2017-11-22 03:31:54 UTC  

Hitler's thoughts on why they didn't just use any of the old flags are a compelling argument for scrapping the stars and stripes, or even the battle flag

2017-11-22 03:32:26 UTC  

Honestly I just want Burger-ism to die.

2017-11-22 03:32:40 UTC  

American nationalists are the most awful people I've ever talked to.

2017-11-22 03:32:43 UTC  

>not wanting Bioshock Infinite nationalism

2017-11-22 03:32:44 UTC  

Hey

2017-11-22 03:32:46 UTC  

civic or ethnic.

2017-11-22 03:32:48 UTC  

Thats offensive.

2017-11-22 03:32:55 UTC  
2017-11-22 03:32:56 UTC  

brother I can't handle your PR

2017-11-22 03:33:16 UTC  

For a revolutionary movement founding a society around new principles, they symbol of national pride needs to be a new one that hasn't been used before.

@Hadrian I mean, Hitler didn't exactly pluck the Swazi out of thin air

2017-11-22 03:34:17 UTC  

I didn't like that bioshock

2017-11-22 03:34:20 UTC  

least favorite of the 3.

2017-11-22 03:34:44 UTC  

1 > 2 > 3 imo.

2017-11-22 03:34:50 UTC  

1 = Best, if you disagree KYS

2017-11-22 03:34:54 UTC  

^

2017-11-22 03:35:15 UTC  

Actually, people who will go first on the day of the rope are those who prefer anything but 1 and those who think Fallout 3 > New Vegas

2017-11-22 03:35:31 UTC  

I remember in one of the Infinite DLCs that's set in Rapture, they tried to redeem the hilarious strawman portrayal of Objectivism in 1...
