Tucker recently had an alternative historian on his show (Darryl Cooper, who runs the Martyr Made podcast) to expound on his view of the genesis of WWII, namely that Winston Churchill was a villainous figure. His twitter thread made after the show does a decent job of summarizing that point.
Obviously any suggestion that Hitler was not 100% Satan incensed the boomer right, provoking febrile emotional reactions like this one from Billboard Chris. The likes of Seth Dillon are also making their favorite call for "moral clarity," which I just read as "die for Israel" these days.
At the same time, a couple people made some decent counterpoints, namely that Hitler invaded a lot of countries at the time he was supposedly suing for peace. This is the problem with calling Churchill "the chief villain," which Cooper walked back into "a chief villain" on X.
Overall, the controversy is a good thing for the right. Tucker is softening up the ironclad boomer mythology of WWII - when you delve deeper into the motivations of the belligerents, you eventually delve into the question of, "so where did the Nazis get all this animus against Jews?" and "why is the Holocaust the greatest tragedy when 14 million Asians were killed by Japan and 20 million Ukrainians were killed in the Holodomor?" Also, blue laser eyes/red tint profile pics are gay.
They did have a stable economy and weren't over-run by communists in the last days of the SDP's rule. The problem is that the SDP were Socialists and intended to go right back to everything they had just done after having reversed course to save the economy.
The problem with Germany was that they were over-run by Socialists. And the Socialists wanted to find a way to make Socialism work, come hell or high water, because obviously if you try Socialism with the right people in the right way it totally works.
"The goal of Socialism is Communism" - Vladimir Lenin
Yes, but this was also a scathing rebuke of the Socialists for not going fast enough. He despised how many socialists were head-in-the-clouds style "thinkers" and "authors" rather than people who actually pushed for a revolution. His problem was that the socialists would debate forever on their committees agreeing to nothing and 'thinking' about everything, and accomplishing less. Germany had already rebuked Communists (him personally). Instead it was over-run by Socialists who were arguing about how Marxian prophecies could really be fulfilled, and what was real Socialism, while Lenin had already moved well beyond that (and died).
