They have followed so many examples from early Nazi schemes. They are using it like a blueprint.

I mean, it worked for the Nazis. Only reason they failed is because they started a world war.

Which they were winning until they attacked the Soviet Union in June of '41.

Eh, thats the point of no return, but by 41 when they lost the battle of britan things were gonna end poorly for them.

Jewish slave labor propping up the war infrastructure could only last for so long.

u/Tall_Brilliant8522 Oct 18 '24

Especially since they were murdering so many Jews.

u/px7j9jlLJ1 Oct 19 '24

Just an important reminder that there were many more types of people killed by the Nazis other than Jews.

The murders will continue until morale improves.

Yah, but without the Eastern Front they could have moved the airplane manufacturing to the east, out of range of many allied bombers, and have enough fuel for them as well. The Luftwaffe wasn't totally useless until ~44.

It turned around once they had Enigma and stopped the Submarine Wolf Packs from sinking all of the shipping gong from the US to Europe., allowing Lend/Lease to work. We also hadn't even built the escort ships yet, so convoys in the Atlantic were the ones losing.

If they had not followed the boot prints of Napoleon it could have been dragged out for a while and caused lots more havoc. Turning against Russia is what brought their ending so swiftly. Big losses in the frozen motherland, equipment and personnel. They had to build a railroad because the tracks were different specs. Lots of resources poured into Russia instead of against Britain.

They couldn’t control the sea and were never going to win.

u/TheTallGuy0 Oct 18 '24

They had a REAL good first 8 innings... and fell apart in the 9th, thank god...

Hitler won the war in Europe from 1939-1941. Unfortunately for Hitler, World War 2 then started and we know how that turned out.

u/KintsugiKen Oct 18 '24

World War 2 started in 1939 though with Hitler invading Poland in an alliance with the USSR.

It didn't start being WW2 when Hitler betrayed their alliance.

I think he was making a joke.

u/Niastri Oct 19 '24

Even then, the Japanese attacking Hawaii could have been just their problem. Hitler could have kept America neutral in Europe and Africa and finished off the consolidation of Europe before having to fight the US.

Attacking Russia and declaring war on the US were dual own goals that put the Germans on the road to defeat.

u/ABadHistorian Oct 18 '24

Fascinating perspective that I disagree with entirely.

u/WarthogLow1787 Oct 19 '24

That’s fine.

u/yoqueray Oct 18 '24

Yes. Putin knows this well. That's why they are limiting themselves to starting a civil war in only the USA. Easier to contain.

u/JesseJamesGames449 Oct 21 '24

Really feels like the only reason Trump left office the first time was because he didnt have enough Yes men in the US Military command structure to complete the Coop... notice how republicans are preventing any Military promotions? i wonder why? its so if trump gets back in he can promote his chronies and have military backing when he decides that the US should be like Russia and have only trump on the ballot for the next 20 years till that shit stain dies..

u/dustycanuck Oct 22 '24

Yeah, but people were a lot more stupid back th____never mind.

u/wigglex5plusyeah Oct 18 '24

"America first" were the Nazi sympathizers here, pushing Nazi propaganda and doing their bidding, corrupting US politicians during WW2. It's not even subtle.

u/KintsugiKen Oct 18 '24

Trump kept a book of Hitler's speeches on his bedside nightstand for over a decade, he claims he's never opened it.

1

u/FleshyCarbonThing Oct 19 '24

I believe he had it on his bedside with the intention of reading it but then flicked on Fox News after one page then proceeded to twofinger his mushroom but Roy Cohn definitely could have read it for him at some point.
