0:54 You should've mentioned that the reason why Goring got arrested for asking, that was because Hitler's personal secretary Martin Bormann intercepted the letter and made it sound like Goring was about to launch a coup, so Hitler thought Goring betrayed him
Also Goring actually worded the later very carefully to make it as diplomatic as possible whilst also trying to reaffirm that he was only following and clarifying the legal process. However, because Bormann intercepted the letter like with all incoming messages for the Fuhrer, it meant Hitler never saw it and given his mental state, Bormann manipulated Hitler into getting Goring out of the way.
Bormann wanted to be in charge, thats why he thwarted Goring's attempt to take over. The fact that there was a power struggle while Germany crumbled around them just shows how mentally unstable most of them were.
@@smalltime0 I don't know about you, but I went to school in Germany and the period I think you are referring to was discussed multiple times at different grades and in great detail. We didn't discuss it at uni, but that might be because I studied computer science. :D If you study history, I'm absolutely certain the topic will get plenty of attention. Or are you referring to German language courses at universities in other countries? In that case, why would they mention any part of history in more than one sentence?
Love how YT doesn't let you say the name of the 'toothbrush mustache-having Austrian man' but is perfectly ok with Heinrich Himmler, Hermann Goering, Joseph Goebbels and the mentioning of the SS.
I guarantee you that saying the name Hitler inside the video is fine. Most creators are just overly cautious. You just can't put certain words and names in the title of the video without getting age restricted or demonetized. And even then, you aren't going to get banned.
Gotta love how extreme moderation policies nullify each other. Saw a video from someone who went all out with unbleeped swears (normally keeps everything pg and nothing needs bleeping) because of a strike plus C&D, so only the C&D words get bleeped along unfiltered swearing. TH-cam and whoever threatened legal saw this is all fine and dandy, carry on.
@@MordecroxI think jawed would be quite dismayed of how TH-cam end up. Yes, TH-cam is now a very successful video streaming platform but over time, as the kids have gotten more sensitive, TH-cam had to adjust but it should be considerate if they shouldn't demonetize TH-camrs with interesting content because it didn't follow YT's rules.

Doenitz did get a large amount of German troops out of the Baltics and into Germany in a massive naval evacuation after the technical surrender. In this he was very successful.
Dönitz was apparently his second choice. He originally thought to have Albert Kesselring who was in command of southern forces to take over, but Italian front collapsed faster than he realized (plus Kesselring had been in secret contant with the Allies to surrender his contingent of the german forces, but he changed his in the mind last minute), so Dönitz whom Hitler believed was truly loyal took first place. Dönitz had actually defied Hitler as well: he had started operation Hannibal in late of -44 to evacuate civilians and soldiers alike from courland pocket, against Hitler's orders, but Hitler didn't know it at the time.
If they were going by that logic Goring should have been in charge. The Air Force was basically Goring and his officers playing around with models of their units like Douglas Haig from Blackadder Goes Forth.
"Toothbrush mustache having Austrian man" This has that vibe of "the fez wearing italian man". I feel like this video was censored by TH-cam before he uploaded it. You can't name the guy because of some unknown reason... Great video as always!
We all know the reason. It's because the woke infestated all American social media platforms and Biden has Alzheimer, because you were told by the news outlets that you should hate Trump. That's why.
I don't think y'all understand how it works and are paranoid. TH-cam absolutely won't censor something before it even gets uploaded, especially if it is something said during the video. Also, getting demonetized and getting age-restricted are not the same as censorship. For example, I tried uploading a video of me singing the song, "Fuck You" by Cee-Lo Green a couple months ago. When I titled the video with the word "Fuck" uncensored, it was immediately declared age-restricted. However, when I uploaded "Fuck the World" by ICP it was not age-restricted because I changed the title to "F*ck the World", even though I didn't censor any of the words I said within the video (I still sang all 93+ "fucks" in the song without bleeping any of them).
@@emberfist8347 too bad we never did surrender. only thing that Dönitz agreed to was an armistice, after that he was imprisoned. There never was a peace treaty with the German Reich.
Well you both named them and your comments are still here... so i guess its not that big a problem? The problem is that uploaders who use their names get demonetized.
I think a better is one that was told at the time. Hitler goes a fortune teller concerned about his and is told he will die on a Jewish holiday. He asks which one and the teller replies “Mein Fuhrer, any day you die will be a Jewish holiday.”
Because mister H was really impressed with how loyal Doenitz had been so he said he should get at least one 'Heil' before the war ended. And to make fun of Goering.
We seeing as you can't say who that man is in the first three minutes of a video or else it would get demonetized... Personally nothing hit harder than the fez wearing mustachioed Italian man.
One of the best actors who played Adolf H was Günter Meisner, who played the Austrian painter in the comedy “Ace of Aces,” the miniseries “Winston Churchill: the Wilderness Years,” and the 1983 epic show “Winds of War.” It is in this last production that Meisner shined his magnificent ability to bring the German dictator to life. He did such a good job that even the great Robert Mitchum probably thought while he was working with him: "Damn, not even I can compete with this mf."
@@jthweatt Bruno Ganz was an outstanding actor. I never understood why he didn't get an Oscar for his role in the Downfall. On the other hand, who needs an Oscar when you are the holder of the Iffland Ring!
Fun fact: Doenitz was so scared of Himmler to the point that hid a pistol behind a stack of papers when Himmler came to his office and asked for a government role.
@@leoflorida95 Umm, because one of the 21st century's most notorious war criminals showing up on your doorstep and feeling entitled to a job might be something of a concern for you???
It's pretty crazy the great amount of times the austrian painter was nearly assassinated, only for him to do the job himself in his bunker like "Amateurs, look how a true profesional does a good work". Heck, even the ending crawl of the movie "Valkyrie" said: "Bro was so unkillable his murderer could only be him"
Funny how, with other TH-cam channels, I always skip past the reading out of patrons' names, but with History Matters, I listen to it all the way through, on every single video. I see it as an essential part of the experience. There's a sense of ritual, of pageantry to it.

As an Austrian man without a toothbrush, I am very jealous of Mr. Moustache's dental hygiene

"The toothbrush mustache having Austrian Man"
I can feel the outrage at TH-cams demonetization
