This is why I am pointing out how stupid it is to wear, use or be associated with a Nazi style Swastika. It takes the peaceful, beautiful meaning out of it and replaces it with a war sentiment and hate.
The actual Swastika symbolism contains valuable information about the stars, the seasons and how life is cyclic (as the Swastika is ever-looping)
Most WN incorrectly have a prideful and/aggressive feeling towards it, when it's actually supposed to be closer to a feeling of God and spiritual ascension, as it means the Sun.

You can't really criticize the allies for teaming up with the Soviets when Hitler and Mussolini did the same thing with their Molotov-Ribbentrop and Italo-Soviet pacts.You either criticize both (like I do) or neither. Amateur bitchute docs leave out important details like that when crafting their bunk counter narratives to the mainstream ones.

Like all socialists, Hitler wanted to keep as much of his own money as possible while shaming others for not paying "their fair share".
> "Adolf Hitler spent years evading taxes and owed German authorities 405,000 Reichsmarks —equivalent to $8 million today — by the time his tax debts were forgiven soon after he took power, a researcher said on Friday. Klaus-Dieter Dubon, a retired Bavarian notary and tax expert, said he found Hitler’s tax records in a Munich archive. They show the Nazi dictator battled tax collectors for eight years before becoming chancellor in 1933. “Hitler owed tax but didn’t pay it, full stop,” Dubon told Reuters on Friday. “He was constantly challenging tax office rulings on his income tax between 1925 and 1932, just like a common citizen. After taking power he didn’t pay tax anymore.”"
> "Dubon found that Hitler earned 1.232 million Reichsmarks in 1933 from sales of “Mein Kampf” — his book outlining his doctrine of German racial supremacy and ambitions to annex vast areas of the Soviet Union. He should have paid tax on 600,000 Reichsmarks of that income but didn’t, the researcher found. “The 1.232 million Reichsmarks in income in 1933 is a fascinating number,” said Dubon, 71. “It was a huge income when you consider teachers then had annual salaries of 4,800 marks,” he said. “As chancellor, Hitler only earned 44,000 Reichsmarks in 1933 but told the tax office he donated that to a charity for widows, which he didn’t.”"

He tried to write off his new Mercedes in 1925 as a “company car.” In one exchange with tax collectors Hitler described the car as “only a means to an end.”"

Hitler was a tax dodger, researcher finds
Adolf Hitler spent years evading taxes and owed German authorities 405,000 Reichsmarks —equivalent to $8 million today — by the time his tax debts were forgiven soon after he took power, a researcher said on Friday.
"That’s when Hitler’s efforts to court Germany’s big capitalists paid off. Bankers and industrialists pressured Hindenburg to appoint Hitler to the office of chancellor. They did not make that decision based on Hitler’s electoral strength. In fact, it was after the Nazis had begun to lose votes, in November 1932, that they intervened."
It's a common misbelief that Hitler was chosen 'by the people'. Hitler never actually won by being elected. He was appointed.

“Hitler was elected”: Myth or fact?
Sometimes, in discussions of fascism, we hear the idea that “Hitler was elected.” In other words, it’s the people’s fault. They chose Hitler. They chose fascism. They were anti-Semites who cared more about persecuting Jews than about protecting their own…

Mussolini said of himself:
"It was inevitable that I should become a Socialist ultra, a Blanquist, indeed a communist. I carried about a medallion with Marx’s head on it in my pocket. I think I regarded it as a sort of talisman… [Marx] had a profound critical intelligence and was in some sense even a prophet."

«Hitler essentially wanted all the positives of heavy government spending without the negatives. In response, THE ARCHITECT OF THE RECOVERY, REICHSBANK PRESIDENT HJALMAR SCHACHT, created MeFo bills. At their simplest, MeFo bills were bills of exchange. They were issued by the industrial company Metallurgische ForschungsAnstalt (Metallurgical Research Institution). But this company was a DUMMY CORPORATION, cobbled together by Schacht and German heads of industry with a capitalization of only 250,000 Reichsmarks (RM). The MeFo corporation would fund rearmament projects by issuing these bills of exchange, which contractors could discount for RMs at private banks. These banks were willing to hold MeFo bills because the Reichsbank, Germany’s central bank, guaranteed to re-discount them. To further entice investors, MeFo bills carried an interest rate of 4%, which was higher than that of other trade bills at the time. To make sure that the bills were never exchanged for RMs, which would lead to inflation, the ninety-day maturation period for the bills kept being extended until the actual maturation period became five years. Summing up how unethical MeFo bills were, the Russian Nuremburg judge Iona Nikitchenko called them “A SWINDLING VENTURE ON A NATIONAL SCALE THAT HAS NO PRECEDENT."»

"From 1934 to 1938, the Nazis funded rearmament through 12 billion RMs worth of MeFo bills. These MeFo bills allowed the government to exclude this figure from their official expenditure statements (so no inflation could occur) and to circumvent the Central Banking Law, which prohibited the Reichsbank from funding the government. Perhaps most importantly, the MeFo bills also allowed the government to hide its rearmament financing from the world until Hitler was ready to reveal it in March 1935. The Nazis knew that dealing in MeFo bills was a risky maneuver with the potential for immediate collapse and Reichsbank officials hoped that the budget would balance before banks decided to rediscount their MeFo bills."

"from the start of Hitler’s reign to the end of MeFo bill financing, the amount of RMs in circulation rose from 3,560 million to 5,278 million. But from March to December 1938, currency circulation rose to 8,223 million RMs, effectively rising more in ten months than it had in the previous five years. THE DEFICIT LIKEWISE ROSE ENORMOUSLY in this time though it had been increasing at a healthy pace previously. Schacht told Hitler that spending on the military would have to be cut or INCREDIBLE INFLATION WOULD ENSUE. Instead of listening to Schacht, Hitler fired him, electing to replace him with a loyal deputy named Walther Funk. Hitler instructed Funk to get prices, wages, and the foreign trade debacle under control using whatever means necessary. A short, obsequious letter written by Funk to Hitler regarding the status of the economy in mid-1939 highlights the stark difference between Funk and Schacht as protectors of the German economy; Funk would do whatever Hitler demanded, regardless of the havoc it would wreak"

"The catalyst for such an atypical recovery was a sustained government campaign to grow the military. Full scale rearmament had begun by 1934, and 70% of government expenditures had gone toward it by 1939.However, the Nazis felt it necessary to completely hide such spending from official figures until March 1935 since rearmament was illegal per the Treaty of Versailles. There was the added concern of causing inflation. It was clear that early in the Nazis’ reign Hitler did not want to induce inflation, which would scare Germans, who had vivid memories of the 1923 hyperinflation. He was even willing to harm Germany’s fragile foreign trade position to inhibit inflation"
