World War II General Discussion

Aphorisms or discussion in any form on WWII.

Muy theory is that the Manhattan Project scientists knew full well the national socialists didn’t have shit (all the best German scientists were on the Manhattan Project), but they weren’t about to tell the money men that.

The question is not how Hitler was able to bring such military might to bear, but how he was able to destroy such military might so quickly.

To the extent that the Prussian aristocrats were Catholic as a faction, the Wermacht was a Catholic creation.

If it violates self=other, call it antichristian.

Or,

to the extent that self=other, the individual is destroyed in favour of the collective, = socialism, including national socialism.

In any case, here all we meant was that it was created by Catholics.

every self is an other, as in unique

every other is a self, as in “an end in itself”

a kingdom of ends

Catholic means universal. In essentials unity, in nonessentials liberty, in all things charity.

self=other is the essential

Yes, well, I’m not one to meddle in a fanatic’s program.

I will add this, though. National Socialism was a radically collectivist political movement. Socialism wasn’t a cover, it was its core. Mussolini, the spiritual father of national socialism, on this:

I believe in a collective if that collective is a kingdom of ends.

We do have a space in our hearts for that crazy bastard Engelbert Dollfuss, who was such an actual threat to the fascist movement that he is the only national leader of that time to be simply assassinated.

If Catholicism is part of the program, individualism will creep in.

Is the willing crucifiction of Christ not above all a statement on the value of the individual?

…the value of one individual dying for every individual…

…a collective of individuals…

Yes, ok, I’ll take a look at your pamphlet later.

:lol:

i say lol twenty times

Here is a World War II image you don’t see very often:

Hahahaha you can see the priests cringing. But they knew they had to do it.

“the Jewish problem” right there on the cross, in full display… the irony…

They didn’t have to do it. Just like the Covid hysteria didn’t have to happen.

Just like what’s coming doesn’t have to happen.

Well persecution of Jewish people was one of the first things the Dolfussians struck from any agenda. That was the big divide between them and the Austrian National Socialist party.

“Alright, alright, you can have your brutalism” they said, “but we will do it like civilized people.”

If that one person hadn’t been assassinated, WWII would probably never have happened.

Eisenhower, the supreme leader of all Allied forces, called the thing a Crusade.
