  1. Reminder: Hitler ate his gun at the end to. You see he was already thinking about the end in 1943.

  2. Reminder: Hitler ate his gun.

  3. The "stab in the back" myth circulated exactly because there was no collapse on that front. Also, AH ate his gun in the end

  4. Oddly enough, the culture of "shoot yourself with the last bullet" was also the norm in Imperial Japan. They were both fundamentally fatalistic in that respect and it should be noted the men actively encouraging this would also eat their guns.

  5. And yet, we'll draft you and you'll follow orders

  6. TIK, there was literally no difference in the level of cruelty between ancient and modern worlds. People just think that because guys like us like to write about men doing that stuff

  7. Japan has always been like that.

  9. Most nations don't distinguish between at least two of those

  11. Japan has a systemic issue with suicide

  13. He was having sex with his niece

  14. ...and he shot himself

  15. I have no idea who he's affiliated with, but modern politics is loaded with absurd comparison

  16.  @albertofernandez2490  TIK is aggressively Libertarian, not an anarchist. The story is he comes from a Socialist family so this is his idea of rebelling again the norm

  17.  @albertofernandez2490  various things TIK said, I don't recall which videos.

  18. Says who?

  19. Less than fun fact: The myth of Hitler's veganism comes from Geli Raubal's suicide. He was served pork the morning after her death and refused to eat breakfast saying pork was too much like human flesh. He never ate pork again.

  20. Yeah, it is confined to YOU

  21. @hopfinatorischerkuchenkrieger  irrelevant. The philosophy of fight to the last bullet then shoot yourself was common in Germany and the man himself genuinely believed that was the best way to go down.

  22. @hopfinatorischerkuchenkrieger  except in this case, there was no hypocrisy. And it wasn't just AH, much of the surviving high command offed themselves rather than be captured. Goebbels' entire family swallowed poison. Quit assuming baby killers have the same attitudes towards surviving as you do.

  23. Japan has a systemic problem with suicide. It's considered a natural cause of death and to this day they have a forest of bodies (a small woodland in Honshu where people go to die). And there were a lot of wasteful things in Japan. First off, they were all gamblers seeking to maximise operational risk, hence the wild skews in the effects of their attacks. Second off, they weren't loyal to the empire at all, instead there were two nations of north and south that ran the army and navy and many government functions were owned by corporations that competed with each other (their four big banks each had their own money printers).

  24. Not really. He wanted to live

  25. The two are not related

  26. @toby2581  ideologies don't exist. And attitudes towards suicides are often cultural. For instance, Bushido is gone now from Japan but they still have some of the highest suicide rates in the world and even have a small forest where people go to die. The deciding factor is family factors where suicide is normalized as a natural cause of death. The idea of dumb obedience is another matter. You'll find where obedience is idolized, mass disobedience is common.

  27. "Insulted" was a euphamism for rape at the time.

  28. The only nation I know of where it was a lawful order was Imperial Japan. However, suicide is casual enough in Japan that a lot of men followed said orders.

  29.  @TheImperatorKnight  You'd be surprised how many IRS enforcements require a SWAT team because some men are really greedy and hate authority.

  30. Shut up. Get drafted

  31. Sounds unknowable

  33. There's a strong corelation between economics and suicides. I.E. Every time the market crashes or big businesses fall, there is a spike in suicides mostly by men who lost big. Nazi Germany was no different as lost property, careers, or freedom and some of them offed themselves
