If you look back to any dictator who was originally just a politician, they all had a shared philosophy and route to taking power: division. Even today-s dictators divide to reach their goals. There is nothing that divides myself from a black man or a white man or a gay man except the facade that we place in exchange for reality. It-s what the elite want. A divided people cannot rebel as a group if they don-t believe they are one. Every great revolution defied this. Egypt-s revolution was born out of a phrase that mean -one hand- the French Revolution was born from both educated and uneducated men and women who felt dishonored. Even the American Civil Rights movement of the 1960-s was not at all possible without white men at the face of the movement. Division is the only thing keeping the people of the world from true democratic and economic freedom. Damn I kinda went off ion even care that much low key lmao

If you-re watching this video on 20th century European history thinking -Orange man bad- you have problems, you-re not onto something here. you-re scared about someone propagandizing the population? and you-re so sure that you-re the one seeing through it? perhaps it-s you who should be worried about being propagandized, if you find yourself in a narrative where your whole struggle is correct and all your enemies are immoral, maybe you-re the one living a lie.

I love your videos. They are great overview of history and how it all links to present day. It's a much needed contribution to those former history students with boring professors. I always say, a good history teacher is a good storyteller and that is you. I hated economics in college, but would you be amazed to know I majored in French history based on the guidance and classes from a Early Modern French Economic Historian? It all made sense.

I get that these videos aren't really accurate but could you at least try? -Swastika, a Buddhist symbol that was appropriated by the Nazis- You don't have to do much research to know that swastikas are and were common symbols around the world, separate from buddhism for thousands of years. The Nazis didn't need to copy it from an eastern religion, when it was in common use already.

Oh Mr. Green, Mr. Green, doesn't the swasti go back all the way to the Vedas, the oldest of Hindu scriptures? Wasn't there also some jazz with Hilter wanting to draw the connection between his regime and Aryan migration out of the Indus Valley? Albeit the Buddhists also use the swastika symbol with the same Hindu positive connotations. Anyway, Great Stuff, John Green for President!

I find it absolutely amazing that wealthy trust fund hipsters wear soviet insignia as if it were any less murderous than the Nazis. This video highlights the dehumanizing and genocidal nature the soviet insignia represents.

The more I watch your European series the more concerned I grow for the state of the world. if you have a chance I-d love to see a video about examples of peaceful redistribution of wealth and power. Hopefully some exist!

This is the best 15 minute explanation of the time between the wars. And if you think President Trump is Adolph Hitler, you need to spend a lot more time studying history. And Obama wasn't Stalin either.

the interesting thing about fascism is that it both is and is not ideology. it definitely has an ideology but no one joins for it, they join because they are looking for a sense of worth and community.
