OT: Commanders’ Jonathan Allen wants to have dinner with Hitler: ‘He’s a military genius’

[QuebecCard]

this is true. However, the punitive nature of the Treaty of Versailles after WW1 by the Allies on Germany certainly helped play a factor as well.

The Allies remembered and lamented the human carnage between 1914-18 and the Germans the Versailles Treaty following the Armistice. These contrasting perceptions were critical in the interwar years with the French and British wanting peace at almost any cost and Germans thirsting for a reckoning.

Aside from the understandably disgusting content, Hitler was anything BUT a military genius. Doesn't take a genius to suss that out lol

Ya people like to pretend the Nazis were these hyper intelligent rigid people and they definitely were not. Hitler made plenty of mistakes

Was he though? It doesn’t take a genius to rile up a society that’s in an economic downturn by appealing to their most evil urges using nationalism, and finding scapegoats to blame for their financial ills. He just appealed to human beings lowest common denominator. We’ve seen it time and time again throughout history. Use of fear and anger isn’t genius, it’s the evil playbook 101.

On social platform orientation he was a genius, a demented human piece of excrement he still was, taking advantage of the opportunities set up for him by the Allies who requested an outrageous fee and limitation of their industries to achieve after WWI. You say time and time again, but give me one who had achieved what he did? In the social aspects of society, Hitler's warped autobiography of "his struggles" have been used as required readings by advertising schools at universities to manipulate a target audience , hence, adhere to the emotions and not the intelligence of the masses. Hitler was a sick bastard but to say he was not ahead of his time actually distorting and utilizing the variables presented to him is not accurate. Hitler was a threat because he was not stupid, though his ethics are an abomination

The BoB might have went differently without Hitlers meddling as well. Switching from attacking assets/aircraft/radar to bombing london was peak stupidity. Allowed the RAF to get up off the mat

You are confusing Hitler with Goebbels.

The 'genius' in understanding the masses, which is applicable today was Joseph Goebbels.
