Subject: Everyone Should See This
Subject: Everyone Should See This
This made for TV movie was a movie that hit upon a common question. Understanding how humanity could become a part of such an atrocity
Although dated to the time period it still portrays common and important truths that are valuable today.
Because Government says something is right does not mean it is so.
Trumperdumper brings up some important points to consider about any leader but one thing to keep in mind is that The Nazi's were socialists. Any party that has openly overt socialists in it even "Democratic Socialists" should be very concerning.
As these high school students saw it's easy to be convinced of the rightness of something. Even when it is wrong.
To trumperdumpers points:
1. Supported Nationalism (Country Before Individuals) Spot On
2. Hate of Human rights (People must comply or die) Spot On
3. Unify against enemies (like other classes or BLM, Antifa, Lebtards, etc) This also happens on the left, any kind of phobes, "racists", "conservatives", "Right wing extremists", etc.
4. Supremacy of the Military (Like using tear gas against own citizens) Or worse
5. Controlled Mass Media (Like telling everyone the mainstream media is liers and only listen to the dear leader) Or mass media that is no longer objective and only reports party narrative and suppresses anything contrary to the agenda.
6. Obsession with National Security (like building a big wall) Or Risking nuclear war and spending billions of dollars during an economic crisis for a country that does not play a part in our national interest or worse yet giving our enemies billions of dollars of our own weapons to be used against us.
7. Religion and Government Intertwined (like holding a bible) Nazi Germany was only a theocracy in the respect that any dissenters were exterminated, meaning anyone that did not conform to the parties agenda in their belief system was removed. Churches were only allowed to operate if they followed the party line. Checkout Deitrich Bonhoffer as an example of a dissenter and what happened in his experience.
8. Corporate Power is Protected (like stopping investigations into people in political office) or using the government as a weapon against political dissenters IRS, FBI, DoJ
9. Labor Power Suppressed (like union-busting) Actually labor was a unifying factor for the Nazi party as well as class/ethnic division.
10. Rampant Cronyisn (like highering your daughter and son's and other relatives) This is common to corruption and not unique to any political party.
This is why independence, critical thinking and integrity and character are far more important traits as expressed in this movie. Another very important point made in this film is that we live in a Constitutional Republic. That is not the same as a Democracy.
Another important point in the film is don't be naïve and think any party is superior. This is what Hitler did.
Great film a must see for everyone who has considered how people could have fallen for the Nazi party line.

Subject: Admin is a Proud Trumper
The movie shows how in the 1960's a teacher turned students into fascists by doing the following things...
1. Supported Nationalism (Country Before Individuals)
2. Hate of Human rights (People must comply or die)
3. Unify against enemies (like other classes or BLM, Antifa, Lebtards, etc)
4. Supremacy of the Military (Like using tear gas against own citizens)
5. Controlled Mass Media (Like telling everyone the mainstream media is liers and only listen to the dear leader)
6. Obsession with National Security (like building a big wall)
7. Religion and Government Intertwined (like holding a bible)
8. Corporate Power is Protected (like stopping investigations into people in political office)
9. Labor Power Suppressed (like union-busting)
10. Rampant Cronyisn (like highering your daughter and son's and other relatives)
The list goes on and on. Trump is ticking off lots of these but Admin says it's about BLM (Because they kneel at football games those astards).
Don't let them fool you. The people calling you sheeple are the biggest sheep in the lot. The only difference is they wear red hats made in china and pay money to take away their own rights.
