  2.  @luchthonn  The definition from the dictionary? lol. Cause that's what he uses. National Socialism and Communism are almost exactly alike. Both were collectivist totalitarian ideologies. The only difference were who the "in groups" were. National Socialism calls for collective control in the name of race, Communism does in the name of class. Replace all mentions of "Jew" with "Capitalist" and "Aryan" with "Worker" and Mein Kampf starts to sound a lot like Das Kapital.

  3.  @AustrianPainter14  And he's right. Africans don't act like Black Americans. You know who does? Northern Englishmen.

  4.  @wtfyomom  "Look it up" Excellent refutation my friend. You really showed us.

  5. Ownership means nothing without control. If you don't have control, then your "ownership" is nominal only.

  6. Then the National Socialist state would've collapsed due to a failing Socialist economy. Germany NEEDED to expand beyond its own borders in order to fuel their economy.

  8.  @carlrichieukmusic  I can: the "documentary" is filled with historical inaccuracies, misinterpretations, and misleading statements without any credible source to back it all up with the aim of advancing a left-wing totalitarian ideology, National Socialism.

  9. And you use the often repeated fallacy that because they opposed Bolshevism that means they cannot be Socialists. As if the Mensheviks were suddenly not Socialists because they opposed the Bolsheviks . . . Bolshevism does not have a monopoly on Socialism. Socialism as an ideology existed decades before Marx was even born.

  10.  @MandyMoorehol  Lol, you wish kid. The guy earned multiple degrees in the 50s and was already working as an academic before any Civil Rights legislation was passed that would lead to those kind of hiring practices. Love it when leftists go mask off and admit they don't think minorities have the intelligence to make it on their own.

  11.  @AustrianPainter14  Lol, the most ethnically and religiously diverse country in the Middle East, a National Socialist state? I think you need to re-evaluate your worldview.

  12. Oskar Schindler was a spy who worked for the Abwehr, he was not some private businessman who became wealthy through "Capitalism." His party connections are what gave him his lucrative position. In reality, the NSDAP only allowed people connected to them to run enterprises. This really isn't much different from how Communist party elite end up wealthy by heading different government ministries.

  13. Can never happen that way because it ignores the money supply. The reason inflation is a bad as it is is because the government is printing out too much new currency and pumping it into the market. This doesn't make things cheaper. Things have a certain value in relation to the overall supply of currency, so pumping in more currency doesn't make the item comparatively cheaper, it just makes the item cost more currency. This is hard on most people because wages/salaries are more slow to change than prices, so they're using the same income to purchase more expensive goods. The real solution is for the government to simply stop printing out too much money and actually balance its budget.

  15.  @SilverXK  They're basically the same thing. Fascism goes by nation and Communism goes by class. They have almost interchangeable worldviews, the difference lies in who they consider the "in-group" to be. Fascists want collectivism by nationality (race in the case of National Socialism). Communists want collectivism by class.

  16.  @oscartang4587u3  The National Socialist stance on such matters is more complex than that (well, not really). They were pro-child when it came to pedigree "Aryan" couples and their kids. When it came to non-Aryans, they very much were pro-abortion. In fact, they loved abortions so much, non-Aryan women didn't even need to seek one out to receive one. From my point of view, selective abortion is still abortion, so I'd argue the NSDAP overall wasn't "pro-children," they were pro-"Aryan"

  17.  @RemusKingOfRome  No it can't because the price increases have to happen in response to the increased supply of currency. Take one look at supply and demand charts, it's literally one of the first things people learn when they take an entry-level economics course. The equilibrium of demand and supply determines price. When a ton of new currency is simply pumped into the economy (which is almost never a good idea, another thing taught in entry-level economics courses) the prices need to change to reflect the change in supply. Goods are not infinite, they are finite and economics at its most fundamental definition is the study of how to satisfy unlimited wants with limited resources. Look at cars, for example. Increasing the currency supply isn't going to magically mean more cars are available. The same amount of cars is still there, but now the currency supply is bigger. The natural response to this is to increase the price of cars to reflect the currency supply. This has nothing to do with "greed" on the part of the sellers because inflation often affects them as negatively as it affects everyone else. A larger profit does not mean the value of what they earned is greater than what it used to be because of inflation. P.S. Things like rent control never work in the long-run because they just incentivize people to stop building new housing, which is part of the reason why there is such a massive housing crisis in the U.S. and Canada today with houses and apartments being limited in number and more expensive to buy/rent than ever before.

  19. NSDAP Germany did the same thing every other Socialist state did regarding labor unions. They ALL nationalized the unions into state-run entities.

  20.  @oscartang4587u3  In a way, but to argue it was generally "pro-children" is quite ridiculous considering how many children the National Socialist state sent to their deaths. Almost the whole of NSDAP social policy were double standards: one set of standards for Aryans and another set for non-Aryans. When looking at the Aryan side, it becomes very clear that National Socialism is Socialism by every definition of the word. And keep in mind the end goal of National Socialism was the elimination of all non-Aryan people, which means that only the Socialistic Aryan set of standards will remain.

  21.  EKREBORN573  Don't like the Soviets, but all those Germans were living on historically Polish lands so I have nothing against returning to Poland what belongs to Poland. The real crime of the Soviets was stealing much of Poland's Eastern territory for themselves and resettling millions of Poles living there. Those lands were never historically Soviet. They were barely historically Russian.

  22.  VictorWembanyamaFitnessOfficia  And you just proved you are completely ignorant of the history of the Baltic region. Germans only lived in "East Prussia" since the Late Middle Ages. The area was originally inhabited by West Slavic and Baltic tribes. I doesn't belong to Russia, but it doesn't belong to Germany either. Poland and Lithuania have more right to the region that anyone else.
