Why wasn't the USSR too big to fail?
>>3249796
Where'd it go then?
>>3249796
It was. The balance of power is now out of whack.
>>3249796
it was, the fall of the USSR is actually more a case of suicide than failing.
Were the axis leaders - Hirohito, Mussolini and Hitler that last leaders/politicians who possessed leadership and characteristics of an emperor of the classic sense of the word?

So let me start by saying I am not a /pol/tard. I just have legit history question that happens to be about WWII:
It has been commonly read in materials that homosexuals were not tolerated within Nazi Germany, and were often sent to forced labor camps with soviets, gypsies, and other people nazis weren't keen on.
My question is, what classified someone as a homosexual to germany (and other nations, such as syria, etc)? Are these like openly gay people? Or did they just see some guy with an effeminate voice as gay? I've always wondered what made someone "gay enough" for persecution.
Is this a stupid question? Actually looking for insight.
>>3249634
going off of alan turing's conviction (different country, but close to the same period): basically, if you got caught doing gay shit (dickbuttery) you'd be charged with teh gay.
>>3249648
oh ok, so only like the past-equivalent of "pride parade" type homosexuals would really be targeted, unless some were "caught in the act" which obviously would label them as well
Thanks for reply
>>3249634
My guess would be that some uptanding citizen would have to report or you have already been known for sodomy even before the Nazis took power,
Also even open fags were tolerated, as long as they were useful.
>''Our strength is our quickness and our brutality. Genghis Khan had millions of women and children hunted down and killed, deliberately and with a gay heart. History sees in him only the great founder of States. What the weak Western European civilization alleges about me, does not matter. I have given the order—and will have everyone shot who utters but one word of criticism—that the aim of this war does not consist in reaching certain geographical lines, but in the enemies' physical elimination. Thus, for the time being only in the east, I put ready my Death's Head units, with the order to kill without pity or mercy all men, women, and children of the Polish race or language. Only thus will we gain the living space that we need. Who still talks nowadays of the extermination of the Armenians''?
How could Hitler be so ruthless? Or is Western civilization weak and capricious? Did he have a point about Genghis Khan and the Armenian genocide?

He's not wrong. Eventually the difference in perception to the average person between Hitler, Ghengis Kahn, Caesar, Alexander, etc, is just time.
One day Hitler and Alexander will be side by side in a history book and nobody will care. Remember that everyone used the equivalent of "Literally Napoleon" as their go-to insult before Hitler.

Isn't anything but sola-scriptura inherently like the pharisee religion? Replacing the word of god with man-made tradition?
It's the same thing the pharisees did. How can any church which has non-scriptural traditions look itself in the mirror?
Pharisees
>moses gave us an oral torah, I swear, now worship Shekhinah
Catholic Church
>Jesus gave us church tradition, I swear, now worship Mary
>>3249164
religious texts are just a snapshot of tradition in a certain moment, therefore meaningless and useless except for literary merit
in fact every heresy supports some form of sola-scriptura, from luther to isis
religions were born before their holy books, so they can work without them
tradition > scriptures
>>3249198
>he thinks the holy scriptures arent divinely inspired
>>3249198
But you have no proof if it's not written down. That's how judaism became such a corrupt tradition, they added on so much tradition and so much man made bullshit, they forsake the torah for the talmud
In our day and age, perhaps the most common entry-level drug into historic revisionism including holocaust denial is the widely disseminated "documentary" called Adolf Hitler: The Greatest Story Never Told, often abbreviated TGSNT. It is a roughly 6.5 hour film made in 2013 by a person known as "Dennis Wise". Indeed, most people who recommend TGSNT to others don't even know who made the film, and those who do know it was Dennis Wise, don't know who he is. Shady, don't you think?
Dennis Wise is not a historian. Dennis Wise is not even any famous documentary director with years of experience in the medium. The only famous Dennis Wise on the internet is a former English football player, manager and Executive Director at Newcastle United. But that is not the Dennis Wise who made this film. Our Dennis Wise, is described [1] as "an independent film maker with a background in entertainment and media. Apart from researching and producing documentaries, today he still produces private videos for clients." Ouch. If revisionist sources themselves cannot hail this man's academic qualifications to direct a supposedly educational and game-changing historical documentary, things are looking dire indeed. I have also now come to know that Dennis Wise believes in the "New World Order".
But enough with the character assassination, right? Let's look at what this film has to offer. TGSNT's 6.5 hour message is basically a reversal of what historians have concluded. I.e. it instead says Hitler = good guy, Allies = jew controlled bad guys. Its narrative basically says Germany was about to win WW1 but (((they))) brought America into the war, then enforced a totally unfair treaty of Versailles on a totally non-belligerent nation, and therefore Hitler was the correct answer, how there is no real evidence for the holocaust and how allied bombing raids killed a gazillion innocent German civilians. Let's take The Greatest Meme Never Told's claims apart piece by piece, shall we?
>Cont.
CLAIM 1: "Germany, the would-be victor, was screwed over at the end of WW1 by the treaty of Versailles. It was also stabbed in the back (Dolchstoßlegende)[2] by its own people, mostly jews"
Fact 1: Germany declared war on Russia and not the other way round. Fact 2: Germany declared war on France and not the other way round. Fact 3: Germany marched through Belgium and brought Britain into the war. Fact 4: Austria-Hungary wanted to avenge the archduke Franz Ferdinand's assassination by Gavrilo Princep and punish Serbia and hoped Germany would shield it from Russian aggression, and Germany's actions did not help here in the slightest. Fact 5: Germany had plans to back Mexico in regaining her territories lost to the US. Fact 6: Germany sank the Lusitania.
Fact 7: Some 320,000 Jews joined the German armed forces in World War I, and 12,000 Jewish soldiers died fighting FOR Germany. The Iron Cross was awarded to 18,000 German Jews in World War I.[3] Austria-Hungary's military forces had an even higher Jewish death toll: 40,000.[4]
All these facts are the reason historians conclude Germany was an aggressor rather than victim during World War I, rather than Dennis Wise and his revisionist buddies' claim that Jews were disloyal to Germany/Austro-Hungary and tried to bring about their defeat.

If we define "colonialism" as a foreign power (in terms of language, customs, culture) ruling over another, then Austria-Hungary was a colonial empire whose colonies weren't located overseas, but within Europe. The Austrians and Hungarians were ruling over a multitude of different ethnicities (Czech, Croat, Bosniak, Slovak, Slovene, Serb, etc.) whose identities and languages were often suppressed by the government. Anybody who condones Britain, France, Spain etc. losing their colonies should also be happy that Austria-Hungary lost its colonies after its defeat in WW1 via the treaties of Saint-Germain and Trianon. Similarly, the areas Imperial Germany lost via the Treaty of Versailles, it had earlier gained by conquest; the ethnic populations in these territories weren't just Germans, but also French (Alsace) and Poles (Pommerania, Silesia). Still crying "unfair" that colonial aggressors are punished for a great war, is ludicrous.
>Cont.
>>3249048
CLAIM 2: "Jewish elements tried to overthrow the German government via communist revolution in 1918 (Novemberrevolution)"
Let us first remind ourselves that these revisionists pointing out how utterly traitorous an attempted coup d'état is, are the ones defending Hitler, who however tried to do just this, i.e. overthrow the government in Bavaria in November 1923 (Beer Hall Putsch) and was jailed as a result. Hypocrite, much? What's with Novembers and attempted coups anyway (remember remember, the 5th of November: Guy Fawkes Night, Nov 5th 1605).
The Novemberrevolution in 1918 was NOT started by Jews, but by a German sailor mutiny called the Kiel mutiny[5]. This snowballed into a nationwide revolution that resulted in the Kaiser abdicating and handing over power to the Social Democrats, who in turn were tried to be overthrown by Communists and this failed. The leader of the latter was Karl Liebknecht[6] who was NOT a Jew, no matter how many dumb right wing sites claim (without source) to say otherwise. In any case, the Novemberrevolution did not claim many lives at all, compared to actual bloody revolutions like the French or Russian revolutions.

My guess was it was about the lagging economy of the south. Slavery was inefficient compared to the factories of the north, and the two sides were growing apart because of that.
The north tried to get the south to adapt to their more efficient form of industry but the southern elite resisted, probably because they felt they had it nice and didn't want to compete with the north. The southern commoners saw it as northerners trying to rule them, and became more and more rebellious.
The north realized that there only method left was to drag the south into the modern era by force, so they put out propaganda about how southerners were abusive to their slaves (despite that making no economic sense since slaves were expensive, the modern cost of a car) and generally just backwards stupid people.
They got their armies and told any southern states that agreed to be modernized would be allowed to keep slaves (as slavery wasn't a problem for most people at the time).
So the war was fought, south lost, north intended to rebuild the south but I guess northerners hated the south so much from the power of the propaganda that the project was mostly abandoned.
