This is crazy shit. I don't understand how folks can reconcile the Jew-hating Third Reich with facts like this.
Hitler didn't hate jews because they were jews, but because for him they were communists
When you put the 1917 bolshevik revolution in perspective, you can see where he was coming from. His main concern was a repeat of the said revolution, but in germany and then all over europe
The irony is that the last german kaiser, provided financial support to the bolshevik revolution https://www.dw.com/en/how-germany-got-the-russian-revolution-off-the-ground/a-41195312
>The Russian communist, with his journalistic background in Germany and business success in Constantinople, wrote the script of a revolution for the Foreign Office. It was a roadmap for what actually happened just a few months later. Over 23 typed pages, Gelfand detailed how a foreign-backed coup could be successful. For him, it was a question of money, sabotage, and toppling the government. One month later the German imperial treasury approved 2 million marks "to support revolutionary propaganda in Russia."
In a sea of low-effort childish replies with no research, your comments stand out big time. I definitely learned a lot. Can you believe I took multiple history classes that covered this time period and we didn't learn this? I read the history books cover to cover (but I love learning) and this stuff was not put in the text books.
Very cool. You're the best commentor on this site.
Thx
