Reading that and the starts going crazy
Always a good sign when someone drops a "nuanced" view on Hitler in the first half of the post
this is such a fucking perfect distillation of your lowest common denominator r*ddit pilled sam harris loving facts and logic dork
still be running from lions
[Hitler] was, in fact, an effective leader these statements are factual
Thankfully, I don't answer to anyone, so I can give my honest answer
acknowledging [Hitler] was, in fact, an effective leader
Wasn't his leadership famous for being incredibly dysfunctional? Like there wasn't a single thing about the Nazi "state" as it was that was even remotely functional at any point
Effective at leading people by appealing to their emotions, not so great at leading the nation/economy or the military during war
Literally his only skill was inciting violence
That's the one redditors care about most.
Like there wasn't a single thing about the Nazi "state" as it was that was even remotely functional at any point
Did you know that Kristallnacht caused a Reich-wide foreign exchange crisis because of the sudden demand for imported glass?
hypermilitarizes society
convinces itself it is the greatest military on earth
fights one war
loses
leader kills himself in embarrassment
how is this effective?
you do not, under any circumstances, "gotta hand it to Hitler"
Okay, but he did kill Hitler.
Good things can come from bad people, like one side of Hitler's skull coming out through the other side
However, had we not brought them over here, it's a good possibility they would still be running away from lions.
Wtf does he think modern day Africa is lmao, he thinks we ride lions to school or some shit? That I keep a pet lion in the backyard? That they just roam though the cities like it's an everyday thing?
The only time I've seen a lion here was in a nature reserve, that literally had the word "lion" in it's name lol.
Africa was and is just a place where people run from lions like a constant Scooby-Doo chase
Africa is just one hallway with a lot of doors and people run in and out of them chased by a lion
also did he really think being forced to live a life in chains, serving under the whip of a colonial master was the preferable alternative to 'running away from lions?'
tbt to when i moved to the uk and everyone asked if i rode a lion to school smdh
These fucking clowns really tell on themselves whenever they try and do the “you gotta hand it to Hitler” move but like, by what metric was hitler an effective leader? He was famously corrupt and the Nazis fucking lost
You gotta hand it to Hitler.
"It" being a cyanide capsule.
that's the funniest part, like there's not even an argument for "handing it to hitler"
Hitler was so effective that he caused the worst war in history and blew his brains out lmao
Fascism is so good it makes Germany go from the strongest military in Europe to the weakest military in Germany.
"Some recent studies date the inception of iron metallurgy in Africa between 3000 and 2500 BCE."
They really think they did everything first.
That kind of stuff is fascinating. People all over the world invented, forgot, reinvented, etc technology all the time at completely different times in history.
Humans can be smart af.
not being racist*
:kelly:
*latest fad
Thankfully, I don't answer to anyone, so I can give an honest answer.
Imagine being this cool. I bet this guy is just drowning in pussy.
This guy is in another post right now arguing that homophobia isn't real.
That checks out
Yeah, the guy who started a two front war and got his country carved into two by in a joint effort by two countries that fucking hate each other, very effective, such leader, wow.
CW: Self Harm
Come to power in 1933
Promise a 1000 year Reich
Kill yourself 12 years later as your entire country get bombed back to the stone age
Such an effective leader
"Running from lions." Fucking idiot. Same old "we saved them from barbarism" bullshit that's been fed to colonialist shills for centuries now. Find a new line lol. Guy's probably just reciting shit he heard from some other racist asshole.
A concerning amount of people unironically still believe in the White Man's Burden.
The Colonialism saved the barbarians is a pretty common argument and belief, I feel like slave taking from Africa improved Africa is another step further
I see the whole "Hitler was a great charismatic leader which is how he rose to power and [insert OP here]" and the first part is also extremely anti-materialist too, its basically the libs world view of how politics goes down in the real world.
"Oh but the Germans realy only liked Hitler because he was good making speeches", realy now as if there were literaly no other material, social-economic and historical reasons why Nazism appeared?
Libs absolutely love this shit because
1- It legitimizes the whole personality cult around dictators removing any materialistic or ideological basis leading straight to nonsensical Stalin = Hitler because lib woke, sorry I mean authoritarianism.
2-It allows them to never look at capitalism's faults or their own European history of plundering and conflict even among themselves, WW2 was a just a really bad guy or maybe a few bad "apples"(see clean Wehrmacht) in charge. Now that the right people are in charge there is nothing that could possibly go wrong.
"African nations are undeveloped because [racism]" as if the centuries of colonial powers pillaging the land, enslaving the people, and plundering their resources had nothing to do with it.
"African nations are undeveloped because [racism]
"African nations are undeveloped because racism
Hitler was evil
Say the line Bart!
However.
Yayyyyy!
An effective leader is when you destroy your entire country in six years, and the more you destroy it the more effective you are.
Pretty simple.
hitler was a pedophile crack addict that didn't get up earlier than 11AM and would have massive erratic mood swings that everyone around him had to accommodate.
africa was full of medium sized states more than capable of self-governance and also had interesting tribal kinship networks that established stateless but complex societies with divisions of labor with populations over 10K
this man has had nothing but pop history his entire life and it shows
the West Africa understander has logged on
Can't deny the effectiveness
look, when you reorient your entire country to eternal warfare, and then lose, that's being effective. if your term doesn't end with you committing suicide in a bunker, you barely have a legacy to speak of.
This is a test to see how cross instance auto fill works. Please ignore
This has nothing to do with op. Please ignore.
"Running from lions" motherfucker there was a kingdom in Africa whose name eludes me rn that skipped the Bronze Age and just went straight to iron.
Cool cool cool
