I am not an expert on Hitler. But my father is.
He toured post-war Germany extensively in 1957 and ’58 as a child performer. And he often recounts the stories. He befriended teenage Lebensborn children (if you don’t know what Lebensborn children are …well …before you post anymore about Hitler you should read about them). He visited an SS widow and got a peek at her husband’s uniform and Luger (that he’d committed suicide with), she had stored in an old trunk, in the attic.
These and other intense experiences in Germany sent my father on a life-long quest to understand this sociopath (Hitler) and the country that allowed itself to be dragged into one of the darkest chapters in world history. My dad is a Hitler/Nazi buff the way Indiana Jones’ dad was a Holy Grail buff.

Seems to have all disappeared.
Think about those who are bankrolling the current sedition when watching this:

—and the disgusting part is that the other two monsters of the twentieth century, Stalin and Mao and their equally atrocious acts are generally ignored or admired by the academic left-—
“To that point, ironically, the American president who could’ve actually been likened to Hitler (before Hitler) in some of his methods was …wait for it …Abraham Lincoln.”
Yep, but I’m never popular around here when I point out that Abe took the first really big steps towards shirking the constraints of the Constitution, steps which have never been, and probably never could be reversed.
The thing that strikes me is that Hitler simply took over, and adjusted for his purposes, a large German state that already had control over its people - an old-age pension system, a highly centralized public education system, an economic planning apparatus, etc...
Hiter didn’t have to create any of it - and the Germans were already used to state involvement in their lives. Hitler needed only to change its course and add to it.
Imitated even.
Who says 1970s fashions were ridiculous?
Great article. Thanks for the post.
-—and then there was Teddy Roosevelt—and not long after that, his cousin-—
There are no right wing riots in America.
Only left wing riots. Judging by their behavior, They are the heirs of Hitler’s brownshirts.
Lebensborn encouraged anonymous births by unmarried women, and mediated adoption of these children by likewise "racially pure and healthy" parents, particularly SS members and their families. The Iron Cross award was given to the women who bore the most Aryan children. Abortion was illegal at this time.
Initially was founded on December 12th 1935 in Germany. Lebensborn expanded into several occupied European countries with Germanic populations during the Second World War. It included the selection of "racially worthy" orphans for adoption and care for children born from Aryan women who had been in relationships with SS members. It originally excluded children born from unions between common soldiers and foreign women, because there was no proof of racial purity on both sides.
At the Nuremberg Trials, no evidence was found of direct involvement by the Lebensborn organization in the kidnapping of Polish children. However, Heinrich Himmler directed a program with other segments of the Nazi bureaucracy, whereby thousands of Polish children were kidnapped and subjected to 'Germanisation'. Germanisation involved a period at one of the 're-education camps', followed by being fostered out to German families. An estimated 200,000 children were kidnapped from Russia and Poland in an effort to accomplish the task of building the Aryan race.

Serious men, doing serious work. “Hung from the neck like a common criminal.” Works for me.

My neighbor was a German war bride from Bavaria who was a young girl as Hitler came to power. It was many years before she would tell me anything about him. In the end, her comment was simple and probably expressed the view of many rural Germans of that time: “He was good in the beginning, but got a little crazy toward the end.”
