Are you shitting me? We’re in the midst of Nazi fucking Germany. They did the same fucking thing there - but at least the gave the working class vacations and highways in exchange. We won’t even get that. Just a Gestapo and Trump Cologne.

You right you right. This is our version of Nazi Germany for sure smh. Crazy cause this country inspired them.
Nope. We did not. That’s a myth. They did like our Jim Crow laws, but they were born out of their own Volkisch movement after WW1 and old antisemitic prejudices that date back centuries.
I didnt mean that as in complete inspiration, I actually have a book i really need to finish on that exact history. Thanks for reminding me.
Richard J Evans’ trilogy is highly recommended.
The one i got is called “The Occult Roots of Nazism” by Nicholas Goodrick-Clarke
Please, this is in the DNA of America. Nazi Germany's lebensraum was directly inspired by the US' 19th century "Manifest Destiny" movement. Nazi Germany is just the egg that hatched, America is the hen still laying eggs wherever it goes; except this time the egg hatched in its own roost.
Correct and white supremacy goes hand in hand with colonizers youtu.be/g9HmV_-EE8g?...
I take it you never studied Nazi Germany, then?
Or even pre-WW2 Germany? You know,Weimar and HRE?
of course the Volkisch movement was inherently a racist movement, but its hardly anything unique amidst other "romantic" nationalist movements of the era. I'm saying you'd be gravely mistaken if you think the American eugenics and scientific racism movement wasn't a massive source of inspiration.
(No seriously - the nazis had a program for regular German families to get affordable vacations all over the world, apparently)
