People forget that rampant inflation and unemployment was what drove Hitler into power. There were literal wars between the communist and the Nazis in the streets of Germany as Hitler struggled to rise to power. Our printing money is going to lead us to rampant inflation.
This is a natural response the germans had and what Hitler pushed and used.
In our case what will be the heritage we rediscover? MAGA means what to us? And it does mean different things to different people.
For me, I go back to our founding fathers.
Sounds like the DNC private Nazi museum members only.
Thanks nickcarraway. I've gotta post some ancient history topics this week, GGG has been veering into too many modern subjects.
In this one, I'll not be pinging the list, but WWII was the woodchipper of a lost world, with a new one (for better or worse) emerging out of the chaos.
BTW, Hitler modeled his look, including that cape he wore at Nuremberg, after the character seen in this painting, which von Stuck painted (by coincidence) the year Hitler was born (1889).
The Wild Chase by Franz von Stuck (February 23, 1863 – August 30, 1928)
Great point to start at n defining heritage. We do need to honor our heritage!

This is a sincere question.
Richard Kiley is a former Nazi living in South America. At a museum in the same city, an Auschwitz survivor is looking at a painting of a crucifixion. He had a friend who died that way in one of the camps. He believes he recognizes Kiley as a guard from the camp. Kiley denies it to the old man — ironic because he had only ducked into the museum to evade Israeli agents. While there, he becomes entranced by a idyllic painting of a man in a rowboat. As he gazes at the painting, he imagines himself in that serene place. He is so captivated that at closing time, a guard must ask him to leave.
The next morning, even before the museum is open, he rushes back to see the painting. Again he gazes longingly at the painting. That night, through the thin walls of his apartment, he talks to neighbor Gretchen. He tells her of the painting and his imaging being the man in the boat.
He returns to the museum and sees the old man again. This time the old man accuses him of being a guard in the camp, and calls him by his true name. Kiley continues his denials, but after the old man leaves, he tries again to insert himself into the painting. For a few moments he actually succeeds, seeing himself in the picture, the surface rippling. The he is in the picture, feeling the water, able to look the other way, out of the picture and into the museum.
After the museum closes, he goes to a bar where there is singing going on. He drunkenly breaks into Deutshland uber Alles. Again, he crosses paths with the old man. He kills the old man then goes on the run.
The agents find him at a bus station and he takes off, running to the museum where he sneaks back inside.
He kneels before the painting and begs God to put him into picture. God grants his appeal, but, in the dark gallery, he does not see that the painting of the lake is gone, having been replaced by the painting of the crucifixion.
Why mess around?
Go for a King Tiger!
Syria had some Mark IV’s that they used in the 67 war

Burn it all and move on with their lives?
How much of it is even real, or at least made before the war’s end?
A standing rule among collectors of German war artifacts, especially anything Party or elite-unit related, is “first assume it’s fake, then prove it’s real”.
Too much maintenance. A full minute to traverse 360 degrees. So heavy that they had to cross rivers using railroad bridges.
Israel used ME109s during their first war with the Egyptians.
I think they were actually Czech made versions Avia S-199. The ME-109’s made during the war may have been sabotaged (couldn’t be trusted). The S-199’s proved to be untrustworthy as well.
MAGA means the US stops being the Worlds bitch. NATO members should fund NATO, not the USA. People don’t want green house gases, great let China and India etc turn off THEIR spigots not force America to continue to cut back at the price of American health and welfare literally and economically. Develop our resources so we are energy independent.
Well said!
