    Imagine if Hitler had taken a slower approach, a la the Monroe doctrine. The US took 80 years to claim and occupy most of the continental territory.
    1. That's a scary thought - slow European Holocaust
    2. It shows how our own US history was in fact a slow Holocaust for pre American peoples.
    The parallels are scary. If we think about this in depth, the US was not the first to do this either. What we need to do is to continue to fight these urges, don't follow Hitler's idea of competition, but strive for what he called the Jewish ideas of cohabitation and mutual success. And not just when it's convenient.

    Pay attention! Timothy Snyder is one of the smartest and wisest people you'll ever be exposed to.
    He knows about Ukraine, he knows about tyranny, and he knows about freedom.
    He's written books about all of them.
    Listen to him.

    I just heard about this guy, but for some reason he's disabled the comments on all his own videos so I'll post here. This guy seems very adamant about manipulation of social media using bots and other tactics being very prominent and not a small problem, which I agree with. But he also seem to be very adamant about that this influence comes from outside the United States. I was considering getting one of his books, but was wondering if anyone could direct me to some information about his position on deep state and corruption coming from within the US? Just so many people trying to make excuses for the US right now that I'd like to be informed before investing my time in his work. Thanks.
    Also, you might want to tip him about that the younger generation will not listen to him if he blocks the comment section. Interactivity is probably the biggest advantage a platform such as youtube have over regular TV and young people today often demand it, they won't listen to people who won't listen to them I think is the principle there, can't say I disagree.

      Daniel Galun I was bothered too by Timothy's disabling of comments on his channel. I no longer am and the reason is because I believe he is in part making a statement about the unreality and toxicity of social media. he has no interest in 25 Russian bots littering great talks.

      As far as I understand the manipulation of social media in 2016 inside the US and since was essentially all in Trump's favor, and the main actors were not just Russian intelligence, but also Cambridge Analytica and Brad Parscale's
      campaign. But they were probably all acting in concert, and unfortunately many dots remain to be connected. Amazingly, Robert Mercer was never called by Mueller. Was Parscale called? Don Jr ? Ivanka? Were Trump's finance records ever examined, going back 30 years, as should have been done???

    I never blame German for Holocaust.
    I live in indonesia, in 1997 financial crisi asian flue, the locals blame chinese Indonesia for oil prices hike and collapse of the currency. Chinese indonesia population only 1%. many chinese die and their house burn. and Local Gov Soeharto at that time did not counter this argument. If many people believe it, it become a mainstream belief without Facts. this is principle of religious people.
    The same case with German, their gov at that time did not counter Hitler argument with facts. eventually, it become mainstream belief. 😔

    It’s a nice theory, but fails I believe. The Jews of the Netherlands were citizens of the state. The state was not destroyed, instead the SS was imposed on top in place of the Dutch government which was in London. It was Dutch policemen who delivered deportation orders to Jews. Instead the Dutch government ceded the state to the Germans by fleeing. In Belgium where the king stayed the casualty rate among Jews was much less. A better question would be to ask what remained of the state. In France which had a collaborationist state Jews had an even better chance to survive.

The good news is that technology has reached the desired point. the Bad news is that the mindless uneducated current economical Barons do not understand the occidental culture and the evolution it has taken place however they claim they are the Occident and refuse to admit their own ignorance. Reason why the one that controls the past controls the future & the one the controls the future controls the present & the new modern middle ages will not be on the hands of the 1913 bankers merchants & industrialist DEBT civilization . The new world order is now in place and hopefully it happens on a noble civilize way😥🛡💐⚔🌎🍮⚖🎨🍾

    Watched another talk about this book where Professor Snyder asserted that the Germans didn't plan the Holocaust, that it just happened, and I wanted to query, "Well, what about the Wannsee Conference?," but the comments were turned off.

    • @georgemonster2025
      @georgemonster2025 4 роки тому +5

      The Wanse conference happened nearly 10 years after Hitler came to power... If you consider the history of the party (from the mid 1920s, say) then Wanse is in the last 35/20%... I think when we look at "Planning" then we'd think that a plan would start in 1933 (or if planning was begun in the 1920s then "whenever we take power").
      Whilst there was an escalation of measures against Jews in Germany throughout the 1930s it wasn't outright murderous (there was violence, but it wasn't really widespread or ubiquitous). It wasn't until the invasion of Russia that there were large scale pogroms. Further, the pogroms were centred in the "New" soviet Baltic States where the people picked the jews out not as jes but as comunists and similarly in the Ukraine...
      Wanse was important, and it was a planning event, but it was more an attempt to organise the improvised actions of the previous 6 months...

      The claim "the world hates Jews" is simply a false claim until demonstrated to be true. So scholars don't spend time investigating false claims.
      The waste majority of world population doest even know or care Jews exists (most of Asia and Africa).
      Instead the origin and history of antisemitism is well known, and it's rooted in an aberrant interpretation of Christian theology.

      This was based not on the lifestyle at the time or "living standards", but on looking into conditions for becoming a huge empire in the future.
      Germany had very limited land mass, poor access to the sea trade, few resources, was surrounded by other countries and was dependent on them for food and resource supply.
      Meanwhile, America had lots of resources, free agricultural land, access to two oceans, was not surrounded by strong adversaries. They could be self-sustained and had few threats. Perfect conditions for a world empire that Germans wanted, but did not have.
