  1.  @wendigaro438 it’s only nazi apologia if you think explaining their ideology is nazi apologia.

  2. No.

  3. It is a justification of the concentration camps, the Nazis justification. TIK doesn’t believe what the Nazis believe, but as a historian you have to find out otherwise your missing a huge part of history, the motive.

  4. You do know that the DAF had 32 million members, for a ideology that hated unions it’s odd that they had one of the biggest in history.

  5.  @jrton1366 socialism doesn’t mean democratization of the workplace. It’s socialist policy to force union membership.

  6. The Nazis were socialists, just not marxist ones.

  7. That is refuted by the fact that the vast majority of Germans sent to the camps were set free. 6:08

  8. Uh, the Nazis viewed the Jews as a race, just like how marxists believe capitalists are a class. TIK agrees with you on both of your points.

  9. Did you actually watch the video?

  10.  @cyranotu  the problem with that is you then have to assume that no one in power actually believed in the ideology, which is obviously not true otherwise they wouldn’t have done what they did. We kind of have to take them at face value otherwise we have to invent their motivations from the aether.

  11. So capitalism in crisis chooses a ideology created by socialists, that claims it is socialist, and that enacts the primary socialist policies? Also Marx didn’t invent socialism, he just made class socialism.

  12. The problem with that is that you have to assume that everyone didn’t actually believe in it. Additionally you have to forget everything they said about hating communists as well.

  13. No, its more like training animal, an animal that is not properly trained is dangerous to the community.

  15. Did you watch until the point where he said “But is this really the case?”

  16.  @okaythankyoubyeee2501  That’s disingenuous, you have to acknowledge the existence of the other side of the argument before you can deconstruct it. TIK does this all the time, where he presents the opponent’s argument before deconstructing it and showing it’s flaws.

  17.  @Nn-3 odd, isn’t that exactly that Marxists believe capitalists are doing?

  18. But it just gos to show that falsehood that we are thought, the Nazis didn’t purge the communists first thing when taking power.
