Talk about having a career death wish. https://www.cbssports.com/college-f...ger-resigns-amid-fallout-from-hitler-remarks/
when you start your statement with "this is probably not going to get a good review, but..." you should already know that it's probably not going to end well lol idiot
Idk he's Jewish and on top of that Hitler was the ultimate cult of personality. An incredibly sick person but also a one of a kind bender of reality. Why he'd lose his job over it is kind of fucked up imo. The most insane people in history are still fascinating if only on the sheer force of their personalities. I think it's getting about time people calm down.
Umm, he expressed his admiration for his leadership skills. That’s like saying you admire Satan for his ability to lead hell. Or that you admire the Ayatollah for taking over Iran and taking hostages and murdering innocent civilians. Or admiring Osama Bin Laden for being able to lead and creating a new terrorist organization that killed more Americans than were killed in Pearl Harbor. Is this someone who should lead a team full of kids or have any excuse for?
Both were able to bring the American global empire to its knees, if only for a short time. And both were loved by those who followed them. It's interesting to understand their methods and how they achieved what they did. Treating them like Voldemort and trying to erase their names is a particularly childish way of forgetting history. And just because a person is evil, from our point of view, doesn't meant that every aspect of their character, or every one of the action is without value. We can still learn from them--our task as grown ups is to hold the totality of their actions in context while allowing ourselves the benefit of understanding their methods/tactics.
Hitler too? They say Satan played a mean fiddle before he started tripping. Try checking out that songbook at the library.
All of them. Even the guys like Mao and Stalin, that were *worse* that Hitler. They're just people, not made up boogie-fiddle-players.
In keeping with the narrative of genocide and violence in general, I came across some numbers that are very surprising...WAR if you will, the real life one. World War II killed 66 million people. 66 million. Military and civilian. Staggering amount. The greatest amount of human life lost in conflict since the beginning of recorded history. But, pro- rating that number out against the world population at that time (2.8 billion), it does not stay number one...Ghengis Khan and the Golden Horde becomes the worst ever, considering percentage of.populations destroyed against the whole. In fact, WWII falls to eighth. Those damned Mongols...and some the other purges of human life which rank above it, are hardly ever even mentioned. I find that mind boggling, considering 66 million dead by 1945. Violence, what a queer little man are you...
Not the Hitler from popular culture and the collective conscious. While those other two killed more the boogeyman for most of the world is Hitler. You just don't make pro Hitler comments. You don't look into Hitler. You don't spend time with his writings. Because if you do you might start to sympathize. Or worse yet... empathize. And nobody wants to hear that except the people who wished Hitler faked his death and is living in a cryotank getting ready to take over the world alongside Disney. Even I know you don't fuck with that.
Well, I tried to emphasize the key word here by capitizing it...WAR. Not abortions or a total dictatorship where people don't fight back like Mao.Those are not my numbers, I was just sharing info from a documentary called " A "A Look at Violence in History"" which gave these totals. Maybe impossible these days, as already proved, but I meant no political football by posting it. Having dinner with Hitler is an individual thing, especially for people who use their canine teeth, but there are hundreds, probably even thousands, just like me, who wouldn't even exist if not for Hitler. That's not pro Hitler, just a cold, undebatable fact.
Yeah...Wu Tang Clan, right ? Actually, Ghenghis Khan and The Golden Horde isn't a bad name for a group.
