“However, National Socialism should not be primarily interpreted as anti-Marxism. It was rather an alternative, competing revolutionary movement which did not have the destruction of Marxism as its main objective but which had to destroy it, not despite, but because of its proximity to it. There are many examples in history of ideologies or religions combating each other all the more sharply and ruthlessly when they are relatively closely related, or when they have a common origin.”

“Hitler was – and this is incontestable – most certainly a fanatical Jewhater, but he also used anti-Semitism for purely tactical or propaganda reasons. Hitler himself no longer believed in the thesis of ‘Jewish Bolshevism’ that German propaganda kept repeating as a stereotype, but this did not prevent him from continuing to use this abstruse claim for reasons of propaganda.”

Hitler as much a far-leftist as far-right

The difference between Strasserists and Hitlerists is very slim

Notice that when fascists criticize communists it is only ever from a social angle and not economic. Their lament is that commies are "not racist enough, not homophobic enough, etc." The critique is not economic because both fascists and communists share the same economic views that the state must control all or most of the major means of production, set prices, wages, production quotas, etc. Two sister ideologies fighting over turf.

ZH: "Wikipedia will suggest Germany wanted to push to the east towards the Urals... This isn't true at all."

Adolf Hitler: "We shall have to be very anxious that no military power should ever arise on this side of the Urals: our western neighbours would always be the allies of our eastern neighbours; so the French have been with the Turks, and so the English are now with the Soviets. By this side of the Urals I mean a line 200-300 kilometres to the east of it. It must be possible for us [Germans] to dominate this [Urals] eastern area with 250,000 men and a few good administrators. Just look at the English, who rule 400 million Indians with a total of 250,000 men, of whom the Wehrmacht has about 50,000. This area should always be dependent on German rulers. Nothing would be more wrong than to want to educate the masses. We only have an interest in the people learning to distinguish, say, the road signs; they are illiterate now and they should remain so. But they must be able to live well; that is our own interest." (July 27, 1941, in Monologe im Führerhauptquartier 1941–1944: Die Aufzeichnungen Heinrich Heims, ed. Werner Jochmann)

Ukrainians who larp as Natsocs are severely deluded about history.

> "Hitler had remarked in the summer of 1942 that the Ukraine ought to be Germanized within twenty years ; and Koch had approvingly spread the good word. When Himmler, on a visit to the Führer’s headquarters at Vinnitsa, echoed the thought by commenting that the partisans were menacing the Volksdeutsche and that there ought to be ‘ only German spoken here’, his anxious aides interpreted this as an order to Germanize the area — specifically, the ethnic German settlement of Hegewald, near Himmler’s field headquarters. In mid-August 1942, Himmler actually sanctioned a ‘ consolidation’ of German villages there after the harvest was in; 10,000 ethnic Germans were to be moved into the Hegewald district, where the settlers (unlike the rest of the population) were to receive land in private ownership. Indeed, in November 1942 the first seven villages were cleared of their Ukrainian inhabitants, and ethnic Germans from Volhynia were moved in."

German women of the Third Reich say that they fetishized and fantasized sexually about the "exotic" Indian soldiers who had joined the German side in the war.

@redideologies

If Hitler wanted to "save Europe from Communism" and that motivated Barbarossa then why did he sign the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact which gave Stalin the green light to invade the Baltics and half of Poland and communize them? Saving by spreading? Poland was an anti-communist state but he helped Stalin gobble up half of it in that deal. And how can someone who is a socialist and implemented a highly socialized economic system save countries from an economic system that he admired and implemented in his own country? Saving you from communism with socialism? That's like saving you from Islam with Judaism.

PraxBen on how the Nazis were anti-Christian and sought to remove it from public life

@redideologies

🇩🇪 Hitlerism had nothing to do with "White nationalism". That's a post-war American bastardization of the ideology. Hitlerism is Germanic supremacy/imperialism.

In 1930 Hitler told Strasser this:

"...the Anglo-Saxons have the mission to govern the people they have subdued, precisely in the name of their superiority. The Nordic race is called to dominate the world, and this right must guide our foreign policy. The goal was the Nordic domination of Europe, and through America Nordic-Germanic domination of the world."

He said more or less the same thing in MK:

"We National Socialists must go still further: The right to land and soil becomes a duty when a great nation seems destined to go under, unless its land is extended. Germany will either be a world power, or not at all. But in order to become a world power, it needs that size which gives it the necessary importance today, and gives life to its citizens."

He didn't see non-Nordic Europeans as equals and wished to dominate them. He did not believe in "nationalism for everyone" either, even among Europeans, he believed in "might is right" as he said in MK, writing:

"only an imbecile could look upon the Earth’s geography as unchangeable as granite–which, in reality, represents a definite stage in a given development, created by the mighty forces of Nature, and which may be altered tomorrow by greater forces of destruction and change–so too the borders of living spaces in the lives of nations. State borders are made by man, and can be changed by man. The fact that a nation has acquired an enormous area is no reason why it should hold it forever. At most, it proves the strength of the conqueror and the weakness of the defeated. And in this strength alone lies the right. If the German people are imprisoned within an impossible area, and face a miserable future, this is not by the command of Fate, anymore than to oppose such affairs is to disobey it." (Chapter 14)

His entire rationale behind Lebensraum, seizing new territory from Poland, Ukraine and Russia to facilitate Germanic ethnic expansion, was outlined vividly in his thoughts there.

Hitler declared Slavs (whose land he coveted) an "inferior race" in MK and other sources:

"In delivering Russia over to Bolshevism, it robbed the Russian people of that intelligentsia that had once created and secured the Russian state. The organization of the Russian state-structure was not a result of Russian Slavic political ability, but rather was a marvelous example of the state-building capacity of the Germanic element amidst an inferior race."

This man was in no way a "White nationalist" or an advocate for "White unity," he was a destructive force of division within Europe hell bent on occupying lands that were not his own and colonizing them through forced displacement and mass murder.

Why any "pro-White" person would cite Hitler as a source of inspiration is either because they are ignorantly unaware of his actual ideology, views and policies or they have created a bastardized version of it, selectively cherry picking out only what they want it to be and not what it actually was.

@MartinezPolitix

Hitler was anti-Christian

"Positive Christianity" was nothing more than an attempt to replace traditional Christian religion with National Socialism as the state religion.

Internal documents show the Nazi German state aimed to remove Christianity from public life eventually.

Himmler was also a crazed Islamophile who lamented that the Turkish Ottoman Muslims didn't succeed in conquering Vienna.

Hitler and Himmler's Islamophilia mainly comes down to their view that Islam is a militant religion hell-bent on conquest and embraces death and suicide for the cause.

They wished for Germans to adopt a similar kind of militancy for the cause of expropriating land from the Slavs for Lebensraum.

@redideologies

The very title 'Forced War' is totally demolished by none other than Hitler himself in his November 1939 speech, where he clearly says he always wanted to wage war.

> Hitler wanted the war. It was the logical end to the path which he had taken since being appointed chancellor on 30 January 1933, and upon which conservative elites – generals, diplomats and industrial arms manufacturers – with few exceptions had willingly followed him. As the dictator himself emphasised in a speech to his commanders a few weeks after the conclusion of the Polish campaign in the autumn of 1939, he would never have undertaken to ‘educate the people, build up the Wehrmacht and rearm’ if he had not had the will to use force ‘right from the beginning’ [¹]. There was no room for the idea of lasting peace in Hitler’s social-Darwinist world view. Peace, Hitler often reiterated privately, would only ‘lead humanity into a quagmire’. Every generation, he believed, had to ‘steel itself anew and collect new experiences’.[²]
The only fault that can be attributed to the Western powers is that they failed to stay Hitler’s arm while that was still possible. They had tried everything they could, to the point of self-abnegation, to tame his drive for expansion in the interests of preserving peace in Europe. It was not until the policy of appeasement had definitively failed in the spring of 1939 that the Western powers decided to confront Germany’s Führer – too late to undermine Hitler’s determination to wage war, if indeed that drive could have been checked under any circumstances. By contrast, in order to buy time for a conflict it knew was coming, the Soviet Union temporarily allied itself with its mortal enemy and became complicit, in the short term, in Hitler’s policies of aggression.
