Do you really think Hitler wouldn't know how to wield social networking?
I’m not sure.

Quote:

If Donald Trump had been chancellor of Germany back when computers didn't exist do you think anybody would guess at his online accomplishments?
That’s a lot of hypotheticals.

Quote:

do you see how this is vacuous anti-comedy?
Not really.

Hitler knew how to manipulate shallow people en masse and that's really all you need to win on social media.

Come on though. People act like they wouldn't have fallen victim to Nazi propaganda simply because they've read history text books that tell them that X statement was Nazi propaganda and therefore they're immune to it because they know that killing six million Jews is mean. People would read that alternate history textbook that pointed out Trump lies and marveled at how people were knocked up but it while being totally manipulated by equally obvious dumb **** in the here and now. Hitler could totally pull the same **** now and blow up on Twitter.

It's so boring to make jokes about Hitler being on Twitter and yet here I am, but I think it's worth pointing out because people are still so arrogant that they think they'd be immune to it but that's still a boring thing to point out cause it's also obvious and yet here we are being manipulated by an obvious populist dicksack and so on and on it goes. Like, the infinite spiral of relevance of the joke somehow makes it unfunny.

It was just a lil aside to this.

Trump is much easier to see through than Hitler was.

The very sad and ugly truth that we’re not even close to being able to wrap our heads around is that Hitler’s vision very likely stacks up very well against reality. I mean the alternative universe where Hitler wins probably has a better earth. Trump doesn’t have a vision to sell. Hitler had a better product.

Maybe when the climate Holocaust is in full swing Hitler’s alternative might start to shine.

Please justify that like you made me justify what I said.

Mindfulness 05-26-2019 07:41 PM

If Germans were the only people left on the planet the world might be a better place.

It’s pretty simple but not many people will even consider considering it. And even if true it’s not a given that the ends would’ve justified the means.

Imagine Africa, Australia, the Americas, uninhabited by humans.

Yeah no please say something more in-depth and intelligent. If the only people on earth were the Aryan race then the Nazis wouldn't have needed to kill anyone and everything would have been fine assuming they hadn't also felt the need to conquer the other Aryan peoples. But Arabs, Sub-Saharan Africans, Asians, etc exist so what is your point in a way that is intelligent and useful?

I already made a thread like what you seem to be hinting at and it was a hypothetical that would only be useful in an alternate universe.
