    Sure, when this guy moves 17 pawns in a row it's "brilliant" and "insanely cool" but when it takes me 17 moves to develop a piece I'm "blundering" and "giving everyone watching a stroke"

      Generally you want to refute your opponent's center control with your own pawns but this gets tricky when you don't know that they're going to neglect all development to keep putting out more pawns. Once that strategy becomes clear you might be too late to salvage the position, as happened in this game.

    Important to remember that Deimer wasn't just a "sympathizer," he was a member of the Nazi party, and completely outspoken on their platform. Before the war, he was doing just fine and the Nazi party with all it's same white-nationalist beliefs was totally accepted, but Germany overstepped and attacked other white, Christian nations, so "then" they were the bad guys and people like Deimer were finally shunned from non-political organizations as well.
