If only.
He was obsessed with some superficial qualities of Germanic society and subverted and (perhaps inadvertently) destroyed all its actual good things.
"I have in this War a burning private grudge [...] against that ruddy little ignoramus Adolf Hitler (for the odd thing about demonic inspiration and impetus is that it in no way enhances the purely intellectual stature: it chiefly affects the mere will). Ruining, perverting, misapplying, and making for ever accursed, that noble northern spirit, a supreme contribution to Europe, which I have ever loved, and tried to present in its true light." -- J.R.R. Tolkien
He did have good idea's and he was even frustrated that the ally's were better in some cases. He used propaganda very intellectually. Yes he manipulated people but he did so that people followed him without question so yes I think he was crazy but I also think he is very smart and that is why he had a war rage on for 4 years before the ally's actually really found out what was going on in terms of the holocaust. Again I DONT approve of that : P
The second really decisive question was this: To whom should propaganda be addressed? To the scientifically trained intelligentsia or to the less educated masses?
It must be addressed always and exclusively to the masses.
What the intelligentsia-or those who today unfortunately often go by that name-what they need is not propaganda but scientific instruction. The content of propaganda is not science any more than the object represented in a poster is art. The art of the poster lies in the designer's ability to attract the attention of the crowd by form and color. A poster advertising an art exhibit must direct the attention of the public to the art being exhibited; the better it succeeds in this, the greater is the art of the poster itself. The poster should give the masses an idea of the significance of the exhibition, it should not be a substitute for the art on display. Anyone who wants to concern himself with the art itself must do more than study the poster; and it will not be enough for him just to saunter through the exhibition. We may expect him to examine and immerse himself in the individual works, and thus little by little form a fair opinion.
Certainly, in taking revenge, a man is but even with his enemy; but in passing it over, he is superior; for it is a prince’s part to pardon. - A wise friend.
lol.
funny thing about these threads is that people complain about THE main selling point about this game..
full pvp, looting and interesting drama.
did you even read about the game before you made a char?
"what? perma death?! why i never-"
Before you take insult to this post, keep in mind that I am simply a warrior of truth.
I think before you can create a character there should be some kind of large warning of possible impending doom and the suggestion that those of a faint disposition should consider playing farmville instead.

A huge sign in the starting room saying "Abandon all hope, ye who enter here".
