If only he had praised Mao...they would have doubled his salary.

“Newly hired Grand Valley State football assistant suspended after praising Hitler in interview..”

That’s what happens if you dare speak a historical fact that is “politically incorrect” to the media and left wing political scum.

I thought that Hollywood film students learn from Nazi propaganda films like triumph of the will and Leni Reifenstahl’s film about the Olympics which was also propaganda from Nazi Germany

I've got you beat...I have a copy of Mao's Little Red Book.My copy has a forward written by Lin Piao...before Mao made him “disappear”.

“...but his style would never work on a 2020 audience...”

Context..he wasn’t operating in 2020.

people physically recoil when they come to it. The programming runs deep, it’s pavlovian

That is a good thing. Wouldn't you agree?

My former university knows how to hire them. LOL!

Wave that around enough and you could become modern democrat Svengali.

My 6th grade teacher (who I think was Jewish) assigned mein kampf to some of us students in advanced English.

Premature posting.

Maybe Coach was a Harry Potter fan.

Here is the interview from the Student Newspaper:

KV: So you graduated from Drury with a degree in History, you’re a history guy. If you could have dinner with three historical figures, living or dead, who would they be? And I’m ruling out football figures.

MB: This is probably not going to get a good review, but I’m going to say Adolf Hitler. It was obviously very sad and he had bad motives, but the way he was able to lead was second-to-none. How he rallied a group and a following, I want to know how he did that. Bad intentions of course, but you can’t deny he wasn’t a great leader.

[Skywise]

He just keeps it for when the Brownshirt Dems come to his door.

See - I’m leftist!

[BenLurkin]

Hitler was an idiot.

He was an atrocious general, an incompetent war industry planner, and a wildly unrealistic strategist.

Wonder what would have happened if he said Trump?

I have a copy of Mein Kampf on my bookshelf. When people have scanned my books I have seen some people physically recoil when they come to it. The programming runs deep, it’s pavlovian. It has nothing to do with what he said or the merits of his point. He uttered the unutterable, and he shall be canceled.

There is a scene from the 1960s movie version of Fahrenheit 451 where the captain is explaining to Montag what books are about. He ends with the line, "We must burn the books--ALL the books," and when he says those last three words, the camera points to Mein Kampf.

If you want to understand evil and why it succeeds before it fails, Hitler would be a good a case study as any, and better than most. Someday there will come a Superhitler, the Antichrist, and understanding Hitler will help us to recognize him, for the one thing he won't look like is what we assume evil looks like.

Hitler did one good thing. He killed Hitler.
That’s taken from a post on FR a few years ago.

I even remember where I bought it...in the town where Mike Dukakis got his start,Brookline Massachusetts.
