During the pandemic, many in America would have voted to round up and put the unvaccinated into camps. It really brought out a lot of surprising tendencies in the population. It shows how close any country is to descending into such horrors.
Yes! Fear is a dangerous motivator.
Good point.
And in just this last month people are defending hitler- Jimmy Dore covered this, and actually reenable naziism in a single month.
There is a Roman philosopher that wrote,if they can make you believe absurdities,they can get you to commit atrocities.
Yes
The conditions of German society and the economic climate after WW1,are important in understanding why Hitler was able to achieve such popularity. Knowing context is vital.
The Way Germany was unjustly sold out and punished after WW1 set up the events 20 years later
@@SeamHead33 exactly the context I was referring towards. Treaty of Versailles.
@@soundbite290 Austria Hungary and the Ottoman Empire had already surrendered and were broke, so Germany was made to pay to exhorbinetly for the costs of WW1 and accept 100% responsibility for a world war that they did not start. These conditions crippled and neutered Germany and that was the plan. Also, there was never an Allied soldier on German soil during the whole war. They were not losing the war at the time of surrender. They were sold out by traitors and communists within Germany. Its no wonder Germany rejected this and fought back.
Also keep in mind the Nazi party only had like 35% of the vote or some number close to that. That was all they needed to get into,power at the time. It’s really scary at how easily they got control. I say easily but I am being a bit hyperbolic there. Now look at what is happening in the western world and Australia now.
@@mikepalmer2219 there was a guy who saw what was coming for the West and all Europeans/descendants of Europeans. He fought to prevent it. He died in 1945.
I spent a total of 8 years living in Germany in my teens in the 70's, and you couldn't meet a friendlier, more generous and hospitable people. With the right circumstances ANY country can go rogue.
Or they never where
Danke.....
Correct
shit come here now
Hmmm, I'll play devil's advocate here... you're white. The experience of others (eg poc's) could have been very different in the 70s.
It sure _feels_ better to pretend evil actions are committed by evil people, rather than contemplating oneself to be just as capable of evil, under the right circumstances.
Naw. I wouldn’t have done what Hitler did. If you think you’d fall into that seat, get some help. Please.
@@youngsquad3868 I think he's referring to what the Germans in general did under Hitler's regime, not to what Hitler himself did.
Have a look at what Jordan Peterson has to say about this.
@@micstica I find that good people _do_ good deeds, while bad people brag about their inherent goodness. And the worst atrocities are committed by people who believe so much in that inherent goodness, that they can do no wrong. The next Hitler is likely someone who believe they could never be Hitler.
@@virtual-viking well said yes virtue signallers are the worst. Which is exactly the truth that should be applied to this story. Did you know all six deathcamps were liberated by the soviets. Whereas the twentytwo camps liberated by the allies are not claimed to have been homicidal. Makes one think about your argument of silent decency versus loud vociferous malevolence.
There's nothing specifically wrong with Germany. There's something wrong with humanity, in that it all too easily becomes inhumanity.
Actually there is and it's called SOCIALISM....when you see and ISM at the end of a word....RUN.
@@gojoe36 Socialism is found in a lot of places, and you can run, but they will find you. Socialism is the foundation of tyranny.
Do you know the difference between communisn and socialism? And do you know the difference between socialism and social democracy,? I doubt it a little.
@@beateschoendelen2378 Well social democracy is a made up thing to try and make dirty socialist assholes seem more reasonable and communism is utter nonsense that is supposed to be the end game of socialism but it will never get there since socialism gives a small group of people total power and we see how often people give up that power so socialism always collapses either into a total shit show like Venezuela or into fascism like China.
@@TheRyujinLP Take a Lok to Sweden, Netherlands, Switzerland,Germany, Austria, Norway, France and much more.
The slow creep of totalitarianism. It could never happen here. Sure.
And yet here we are, let's go Brandon!
Think again. It's already happening & the right wing is doing it. Look at what happened on January 6. Like with 9/11, we will never forget.....
bloui1033 have you forgotten about all the rioting by BLM and Antifa? ( night of broken glass) the Nazis were also the original cancel culture. Didn’t you watch the video. Margret Sanger received fan mail by the Nazis ( the founder of plan parenthood
So, you are agree with all the wars where are the US ist involved?
@@beateschoendelen2378 there were no Wars started under Trump, in fact he was getting us out of the Endless Wars. Of course that pissed off the European bankers, especially the ones that live in Germany! Auf wiedersehen!
Thomas Sowell is hands down the best researcher and fact based philosopher produced in this century. I find his work riveting.
No, he's not. All he does is parrot the same stuff that other mainstream historians peddle. They all plagiarise each other - unlike David Irving, who takes the trouble to carry out research by original documentation, but those in high places who propagate a false narrative about this issue in 1930s Germany, have sought to persecute him for doing just that.
@JaquesRabitsHe won’t, these people are well and truly gone, though I respect you for trying to open people’s eyes. I’ve spent 20 years trying to do that, I’m getting tired now.
@@jaysimpson6857oh yes, you must be the chosen one. Holder of the one truth. 😂 calm the f down, narcissist xD
He's good, but he's still got some holes. Look up "The Wall Street Trilogy" by Antony Sutton.
It is foolish to rely on only one so-called "philosopher" -- especially when instead the "philosopher" is a propagandist.
Thomas Sowell is a national treasure who has been kept out of the public sphere intentionally because of his rational and quite practical points of view. I feel blessed to have learned about him over a decade ago, I hope many more will come to learn his name and philosophy.
He is a National Treasure I feel the same way. Anything I listen to him I feel smarter. Take care
Thomas sowell is thee GOAT. I am lucky to have found this man’s teachings. Nothing but FACTS and historical TRUTHS
He and Vivek should get together - at least they probably do know of each other.
Yes that is why I use financial coach Mr John Yang. He is great and made me over $10,000
😂
Yet, Al Sharpton vs the Teleprompter is Prime Time...
Sowell is a genius. Yet 95% of blacks have never heard of him.
95% of Americans haven't heard of him.
If they taught Thomas Sowell in school, we would not have 90% of the issues we have today.

That’s a shame
@@lr3571 bro snoop doog is a different kind of genius he’s a rap genius. Obama is diplomatic genius.
Everyone should hear him,he speaks a lot of sense
“If it could happen to the Germans it could happen to any people” plus the point that Germans were not one-dimensional villains are important to see them as they were- people.
Just look around at what is happening in the world now and there should never be a question of how can people go along with so much authoritarianism.
It couldn’t have happened in the UK. Britain had a global Empire based on trade not ideology. Thousands of Brits lived and married overseas. Like my grand parents who loved India it’s culture and people.
So Germany is blameless because 'it could happen to any people', even though it didn't?
"The Victors write the History Books."
@@markl4673 It has happened, it's just less known because those places didn't start world wars.
One of the most honest and logical thinkers I have ever listened to.
He's not the least bit honest-a master of the Motte and Bailey argument
@@aodhganmerrimac Do you think he's running that sort of fallacious argument here in this extract?
@@aodhganmerrimac no, the ones who dislike Sowell (i.e. the woke) use motte and bailey like drunkards drink guiness and bailey's
@@gwho 🤣
What makes you think you’re able verify any of this work?
His point about the eugenics movement and its close connection to the advocacy of abortion sterilization and racism is right on. This movement was influential not only in Germany, but throughout the western world, including America.
This movement was initiated by the Progressives.
Germans actually took the idea from America and cited our supreme court case law on some eugenics rulings.
@@psilvakimo no it’ wasn’t
@@robertwoodroffe123 I forgot, if I ever knew about the 7:1 ratio. If you feel like it, you can explain it to me, or I could just look it up; And I always thought it was Amerigo Vespucci who gave America its name. Thanks for reassuring me that I wasn't crazy.
@@Ajourneyofknowing Yes it was. Read Better For All The World by Harry Bruinius.
One of the MOST PROLIFIC intellectuals on the web. Thank you, Dr. Sowell.
Not just the web
I would add just one observation to this. The shore of the Black Sea, near which the "Black Sea Germans" lived was part of the Ukraine which had suffered the Holdomor under Stalin. My senior year of high school, in the early 1970's I took Russian and it was taught by a woman who had managed to survive the Holdomor in the Ukraine. Her father was of German ancestry, her mother of Ukrainian. It wasn't just those of German descent that cheered when the Wehrmacht marched into Odessa, where she lived. They had no idea how badly the Nazis would treat them, but they had a pretty good idea how many millions had starved to death under Stalin and the Soviet Government. They were happy for change, at first.
I suspect that the memory of the Holdomor plays a big part of why the Ukrainians want to remain independent from the Russian Federation.
All the more sad that they got treated as bad by the germans... imagine thinking that you got saved and that you can life in freedom just to get treated the same way as before just by another regime...
@@thenarkknight278 No they didn't, you're just ignorant and indoctrinated, not to mention delusional.
@@user-tf5lg7fc9s What do you mean?
@@thenarkknight278 You think the Germans treated them the same? That's insanely delusional. They truly had liberated them. The other side was killing them en mass as well as committing other disgusting atrocities.
@@user-tf5lg7fc9s Look at the link I send you. There are the numbers.
Here is an American that knows his world ! He even mentions the Ibos, from Nigeria !
I take my hat to you Mr Sowell, for your knowledge, courage and capacity to transmit ideias to others.
Maybe he can teach you spelling. Ideas*
He didn't mention the enslaved in America and South America.
@@patricelumumba8120 In Argentina slaves were emancipated in 1813-!
@@patricelumumba8120 Dr Sowell has covered the issue of slavery very extensively. You obviously know little about him.
@@psilvakimo His coverage of slavery seem to blame the enslaved and provide solace to the enslaver which is understandably acceptable to his base.
My Moroccan father, African-American mother, Belarusian wife, and some of my Chinese friends have told me at different stages of my life that most humans will discriminate against you for a variety of reasons such as neighborhood, income, education, creed, skin color, religion, nationality, dialect, gender, weight, height, hair, etc. Anything to convince themselves that they are superior to you or that you’re inferior to them. We are the only creatures who do this to ourselves. We are a species who seeks to convince ourselves that everyone who isn’t like us, no matter how minute the difference may be, is inferior to us, thus convincing ourselves that we are superior. To justify this notion, we resort to exclusion, lies, stereotypes, propaganda, and violence to reinforce our superiority and others inferiority. This is the nature of humans.
you're right, we have all this evidence that different groups are best left alone and shouldn't be forced to participate in a failed diversity experiment. this is the way for each race to reach their highest potentials. that doesn't mean we can't communicate, trade, learn from each other, travel, etc.
Ever owned chickens?
Not only humans hate & kill each other.
@@SeamHead33 :: Your paragraph is full of contradictions. You cannot have communication / travel / learn from "each" other / trade ... w / o diversity AND at the same time remain separate from other groups "to realize the potential" w / in one group.
That's not how civilizations advance. What you're dishing out is stagnation / exclusivity ... a backwardness that leads nowhere ; AND hypocritically, want Communication / Travel / Trade / Exchange of Ideas ... w / other groups.
You can run, but you can't hide your bigotries behind false-"rationalizations" & awkward arguments.
The problem he's addressing i think is fairly clear. His concern is that his nation surviv and his interests are protected.
Foreign policy, in this case trade, travel etc. Doesn't become less of a consideration under nationalism. When policy is in service to the nation those policies begin to reflect the needs of respective peoples. Divisions are strongest when interests are in direct competition with one another.
Dismiss him as a bigot, refuse to take his concerns seriously, and feel good about yourself as basic humanity is denied White people.
@@cliffgaither yes you can. You cannot have individual or cultural potential rise even you try to blend everyone into the same thing. People LIKE living with like minded people who are closely tied culturally. How about YOU dont fear letting others be themselves and independent
The Germans, like everyone else, can fall for any flawed doctrine or ideology, but if you ask me
your average German is a pretty good bloke.
Dam decent of you to say!
Modern Germans shouldn’t have to apologize for the sins of their grandparents
Just like modern Americans have nothing to apologize for because some of our great great grandparents owned slaves..not mine tho😀
@@mccalltrader, of all of those ancestors fighting for the Confederacy, an extremely small percentage actually owned slaves.
How much of this was a set up? Propaganda has always ruled what people think, both ways. The masses is used as pawns by politicians and elites. Did Hitler's withdraw from the bankers cost the German population.
I really appreciate this,
My mother was born right after this in 1949, my Opa had to serve, as your choice was chosen for you. My aunt had to live thru the mess as she was 11 in 1951 when they sailed from offenbach to Ellis Island. Through those horrors, my mom never wanted to claim she was German.. at 73 she's quite sad that the place she's always claimed is turning into the devastation that brought her whole family here.
Her whole life she didn't want to be judged for shit she wasn't apart of. Were all human, people need to realize that NOT everyone is lumped together in a stereotype.
@@saxandvi0lins you get judged on the propaganda naritive because that is what everyone made to believe. Its so sad you cant speak freely because you get censored. Tells you 100years later the same is going on.all over the world.
I have read many of Dr. Sowells books and he continues to be my favorite author on many subjects.
Mr Sowell has one of the greatest minds of our time....and yet he is largely unknown....which is a sad indicator of the current times...much respect to you Sir.....
As a older hispanic decent , I love still learning about stuff like this 👍
Learning never stops, my friend.

"Hispanic" is a made up term.
The density and organization of Dr. Sowell's writing is astounding.
Thank you for the exploration of the nuance of the human condition.
Interesting because I know from family history, my great grandparents lived in what is now Belarus just north of the present day Ukrainian border and were eventually killed by the Nazis when they overran the area in WWII. Yet, during WWI this area was also conquered by Germany after defeating the Russian Czarist army, and instead of the horrors Germany would inflict 25 years later in WWII, the locals could actually go over to the German lines for food when there was a severe food shortage, and the German Army gave them food and treated them well. This is a major reason why the locals had no idea what was in store for them the second time the Germans came.
The world needs healing - and Dr. Sowell is the doctor.
In profound gratitude; regards from Europe/Switzerland.
What a treasure to the world Thomas Sowell's knowledge is. Wish all could have the privilege of hearing it.
Before Hitler:
-The Lepers
In Canada, Australia, England and South America, things were just as dire for ethnic Germans. Some Germans had originally fled to these countries in the first place to escape genocide and persecution elsewhere only to be being victimized again. In 1891, there were 45,000 German-born people in Australia. In 1900, almost 10% of the population of South Australia was German-Australian. World War One was a very difficult time for them. Even some second and third generation German Australians were interned. Employment became so difficult that, for one example, the Australian born Attorney General of South Australia had to resign from his position as did other public officials. German schools had to close and German language instruction was forbidden in schools. The South Australian Education Department did not employ anyone of German background or even those with a German name and all 49 Lutheran schools were closed in 1917.
Street and town names were changed, loyal citizens were dragged off to internment camps, books and bibles were destroyed, and of course, innocent citizens could be molested and robbed without repercussion. In South Australia the government changed 69 “German” names of geographic features and places. The Australian government banned immigration from Germany until 1925. In 1919, to pour salt on the wounds of armistice, imports from Germany were banned for three more years.

The Thrashing of German Civilians by the British
While Papua, New Guinea was taken by Britain in the late 19th century then passed to Australia in 1906, Germans controlled some parts of it, including Rabaul on New Britain island which had been in German hands since 1884. When World War One erupted, Australian forces took and occupied Rabaul on September 13, 1914. A terrible incident took place, the truth of which was hidden for half a century until photos of the event surfaced.
On November 10, 1965, long after these pictures were taken in 1914, a elderly retired clerk and eye-witness to the event named A. McKay gave an interview to ‘The News’ in Adelaide, Australia where he explained what had transpired. McKay, who was at the time a young serviceman, explained to the newspaper that in a British ceremony which took place in the main square in Rabaul on November 30, 1914, four German civilians had been flogged.
-
One Col. William Holmes managed to have “confessions” extracted from four Germans on Rabaul admitting they had become intoxicated and roughed up a Methodist minister they suspected of being a spy. Holmes ordered the Germans to be publicly flogged at Proclamation Square in Rabaul.
Half a battalion of men was marched to the square and lined up to watch. Before the flogging, the Germans loudly protested their innocence, but it was to no avail. The first German, a medical officer, was placed across a trunk with his hands handcuffed to two tent pegs in the ground while his ankles were chained with leg irons to two pegs on the opposite side of the tree trunk. He was given 30 extremely violent strokes of the cane and carried away. The next man then was similarly lashed across the trunk and given 25 strokes, as was the next. Since the last victim was only a young boy, he received only 10. A new provost was brought on for each caning so one man wouldn’t “tire out.” After each flogging, the victim was carried away, but not one of them made a sound. Although no photographs were allowed at the flogging, one private hid his camera under his shirt with only the lens popping out, and he managed to catch it on film.
-
At the onset of War, Germans became Canada’s leper overnight with the Enemy Alien Act, 1914-1924. Charged with treason and sedition, even without proof, many were socially and economically ruined. Clubs and associations were dissolved, German schools closed, and German newspapers were suppressed, then outlawed. The ‘Enemy Alien Act’ stripped German Canadians of their right to vote, to speak their language in public or to teach their children in German.
-
Germans would get the same treatment,sometimes even worse, in the USA.
Most of those 8700 persons detained as enemy aliens under the War Measures Act in Canada were, in fact, Ukranians. Ukraine was at the time part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
There was no "Enemy Aliens Act", no stripping of citizenship, and there had to be reasons for arrest such as unemployment or trying to leave Canada.
No question that there was an anti German feeling in Canada during WW1, but there weren't exposed to anything remotely like what the "enemies" of the Third Reich went through.
…and I thought the Jews had it tough! Wow!
@@tpxchallenger You are terribly wrong.
@@tpxchallenger The term Freethinkers (Freidenker) describes a liberal 19th century German intellectual movement which attempted to be unencumbered by dogma. Freethinking became fashionable during the Age of Reason from 1740 to 1753. Many of the early freethinkers were neither true agnostics nor true atheists, rather they substituted the notion of a deity and its accouterments with opinions about religion based on reason, logic and common sense. Some of the more radical members of the 48’ers and Turners were freethinkers. The Freethinkers refused to accept political absolutism and the authority of a church or a religion. They settled all across America, and there were groups of them in every major city. At least two German regiments were comprised mostly of non-religious freethinkers and they actually started their own “free churches” unencumbered by a traditional preacher. Many freethinkers were highly educated and strongly supported public education, particularly vocational programs.
There were several freethinker communities across the USA including the Rationalist Society of St. Louis which was formed in 1848 and is still in existence today, making it the oldest autonomous Freethought organization in the United States. Their Naked Truth monument in St. Louis was dedicated to Praetorius, Schurtz and Danzer. The statue was moved from its original location in the wake of the anti-German sentiment of World War One. Also in Missouri, Hermann was founded in 1837, after being chosen by the German Settlement Society of Philadelphia for its resemblance to the Rhine Valley of Germany. It proved to be beneficial to farming, brewing and especially wine making. In the first few decades after its founding, it was also fertile ground for Free thought which was alive and well until 1854.
@@germaniatv1870 I'm wrong? I don't think so. There has been quite a bit of scholarship on Ukrainian internees during the First World War.
I'm not exactly sure what your point is by showing the British in as bad a light as you can yet completely overlooking the fact that it was Moltke's armies that smashed into Belgium and France. Surely you've heard of Louvain? Surely you've seen memorial plaques to civilians shot by the Germans in Belgium and France? Edith Cavell?
What happened to the Herero people under von Trotha? The "stern hand" indeed!
Thomas Sowell isn't just doing research, he is giving a dire working seen decades ago.
You mean researching mainstream information which has the potential to falsification of history (Hague Land Warfare Regulations; ruse of war is allowed)
Selectively picking truths and half truths is his business. Some of his claims are outright ridiculous.
What does the phrase “giving a dire working” mean? Is there any way you could say this using plain English? It sounds like you are criticizing Sowell, but it’s not clear what you are saying. If you are criticizing his statements, could you clearly state your objection and give any searchable evidence for your opinion like Sowell does for his?
Always a pleasure to hear Dr Sowell's point of view.
I've never heard anyone make mention of the igbo genocide during the Nigerian civil war before now, sowell is a genius
Tribalism in Africa, which has a strong sense of “ us against them “ worldview is a major factor in the instability of many African states within the country to war against each other, with one man in each camp wanting to be King of the Hill ? Power trippers come in many colors……..where is the love in this?? The reason why our founding fathers gave us the Constitution with 3 division s is and was to prevent a Hitler or Stalin or Mao from succeeding in being King…….but our Biden in the Oval Office has declared to himself KING but no one noticed……..we are now under communist rule by any measure…..
This brilliant man could talk about ramen noodles and I would hang onto every word. Thomas Sowell is so down to earth and yet somehow other worldly. A national treasure for sure .
Somebody has been actively trying to destroy any sense of national pride amongst Europeans.

Ever read the book; You Gentiles by Maurice Samuel?
It explains who's behind it.
You might also want to read; Germany Is Our Problem by Walter Morganthau in which it discusses the breaking down of German identity after WWII.
@Poli Dissent
True that. Henry Ford's 4 volumes also is a must read.
@Poli Dissent
Morganthau's book is pretty scary, especially when you read the plan layed out in the insert, and realize it's happening in America now.
Thomas Sowell among the greatest men of wisdom. Thank you for your insight.💖
Thank you Dr. Sowell for so carefully demonstrating the facts. Far too much of world and American history is distorted for political purpose, and you do a great job of setting things to right. Semper Fi, John McClain
Have you seen John McCain’s flag during his funeral?
Semper Fi Winsome Sears!
In today’s climate of antiwhitism, the word ‘Nazi’ is a preferred slur against White people because the Nazi movement happens to have occurred in a Christian, European country. Whereas the far more destructive and still-existing scourges of communism & radical Islam are conveniently ignored. Thank you Mr. Sowell for recognizing the greatness and benevolence of the German people.
That's not true, though. Nobody cares about white people any more than any other race. The problems occur whenever white males take ownership of conflicts that don't concern them. For example, slavery reparations. I say this all the time. If your family never was a slave owner, you have nothing to protest. Your opinion is fine but it doesn't matter and it cost you nothing either way. Just stay out of it. Instead, white males push their agendas.
You mentioned "radical Islam" but have never spent a day in an Islamic state. I have. They don't give a shit about Americans. Communism is a term that you constantly get wrong. It was just a buzzword white men used to slander leaders that didn't want to be colonized. Every "communist state" was a poor nation that the US tried to occupy. They were forced into siding with the Russians.
The best way to maintain harmony with other races is to mind your business or be honest with your beliefs. You want things done your way and no other. That's the truth of the matter. The reason why the Germans are trashed in the media ar the same reasons you just trashed Muslims. PROPAGANDA.
The thing is, a country can't be Christian. And the people who did the Nazi thing weren't Christians. Read about Bonhoeffer or the Bekennende Kirche in Nazitime. I believe there are always ways to do the right thing, also in the World War 2 Time. At least someone can flee to another country and work for good there if it's not possible in the homecountry.
Germans were so punished by the treaties ending WWI, compounded by the depression. Working Germans would literally have a wheelbarrow full of money to buy one loaf of bread. Thieves would dump the money and steal the wheelbarrow. Over 1 million Germans died of starvation as Germans were forced to make reparations no working nation could afford at the time. This extreme poverty and no hope for better days made it possible for otherwise sane ethical people to not question anything that brought them some relief until it was too late
That's inaccurate. The German reparations could only be paid in foreign currency as a measure to prevent the Germans from simply inflating their currency. WW1 in itself wrecked the economy, and the social welfare programs afterwards prevented recovery.
The Treaty of Versailles was less than what Germany did to Russia after their surrender in ww1. Which probably played a role in the stipulations in the Treaty of Versailles. The main problem was they didn't leave an occupying force to enforce the rules afterward, like in ww2.

I LOVE THIS MAN. HE GIVES US SO MUCH KNOWLEDGE!! GOD BLESS!!
I actually listened to the entire audiobook of this. I thought it was hilarious how it said in the forward that it was written to be accessible to a "general audience". it felt like being back in college. amazing book, but so dense.
Dr. Sowell has a sober voice and an incisive intelligence when he delves into these touchy issues of history that we all easily write off as faults and flaws of a certain ethnicity or group. He reminds us that these are all faults and flaws of humanity instead and can happen to anyone anywhere.
Context is always important. Thank you.
There is good and evil in every nation. Sadly evil found the right conditions to take power. Most Germans I have ever met are kind, considerate and hard working people. Like most, they are good people. We must never forget the tragedy of the holocaust, but we must also remember that the German people have a very long and rich history and have given us a lot.
It’s interesting how few Americans seem to know about the Chinese cultural revolution. Everyone knows about the Holocaust and millions of Jewish people and others who perished. Not everyone knows about the tens and tens of millions of Chinese people killed by their own government. We still don’t even know where COVID originated or why the CCP and WHO denied human to human transmission even though Taiwan said no, it is transmissible human to human.

That’s why they started world war 1 and 2 but if your telling me you know a lot of kind, considerate hard working Germans then we should go with what you feel even though they started 2 world wars millions are people killed and 6m Jews set on fire and gassed. Yes, Germans are greatttt people

I like the way Doctor Sowell describes the Irish in Ireland as the truly wise people of all time.
I agree
Is this sarcasm ? I've always got the impression that he hates us and blames the south's problems on Celtic influence
Thomas Sowell is a TREASURE! He's the original Jordan Peterson!!✌✌👍👍
Exactamondo ✔️
Sowell's books need to be in the hands of every African American people, but every American as well.
Jesus will return first......
My grandfather told me that the SS would go from house to house inspecting everything and taking property and people away. Fear drove people to obedience. Does that sound familiar to our current times?
I heard that Soviets did the same thing and towards the end of the war as they ventured all across German territory they’d dress up as German SS and raid people’s homes and torture some of them.
What was the purpose
When Tom Sowell speaks i listen!
Love your programs ! Unfortunately most people will never hear about them and less will listen to them and even lesser will understand or accept ......
All the more reason to spread the word. This information is too valuable to languish in obscurity, especially given what widespread ignorance of it has wrought.
Thanks for the shout out to Francis Daniel Pastorius, founder of Germantown PA and author of the 1688 anti-slavery resolution. He and his best friend both signed it, but among the 60 other attendees of the meeting, they could find only two others willing to sign it.
As a German I am quite surprised by how superficially he analizes the situation in Germany.
Germany was a highly polarized country, divided along confessional, political and class. The german national state was founded just in 1871 and it was highly disputed, because it was not founded through a bourgeois democratic revolution, but through wars by aristocratic Prussia. Large parts of the population did not identify with the new state, for example large parts of the catholics, as it was dominated by protestant Prussia, or the left-wing liberals, as it was not a democratic and liberal state, but an aristocratic empire, or the growing socialdemocratic working class movement that hoped for a socialist state.
The fact that Germans in the US were in large parts against slavery had a simple reason: when in 1848 the democratic revolutions in the several german states that existed at that time were cracked down, a lot of democratic and liberal Germans migrated to the USA. So at the Civil War era in the US Germans in the US were not only more progressive than the other Americans, but also more progressive than Germans in Germany.
And it is true, that at the beginning of the 20th century an aggressive antisemitism was less known in Germany than for example in Eastern Europe. But there was a wide spread antisemitism among certain parts of the German population, for example the royalty. Also german nationalism, as at its roots it is no civic but a cultural nationalism, always had an antisemetic compontent.
And also the notion, that THE Germans turned to Hitler during the World Economic Crisis is only half true. There were certain groups that were quite resilient to faschism, as the catholics and the socialists in the working class. Hitler was highly popular among middle class protestants. And eventhough he never achieved an own mayority on elections, Hitler found allies among the conservatives and parts of the old empirial elites, as they had been longing to overthrow the democracy since its proclamation in 1918.
Quite astonishing to see, that a video full of half-true facts is so popular among american conservatives.
Yes my friend the analysis is reductionist and misses a lot of nuance. I mention my German heritage dating back to a Circus that used to tour the East Coast of Australia, pre federation 1901. The Wurth’s Circus…oh no I come from carnies….. my great grandfather William Paul
great detailed comment my friend. Pls done look for nuance or context on these sites and especially not from these right wing nutbags. They'' have you thinking Nazis were Socialist bc its in their name...lol....Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei...these types are simpletons and them and Black conservatives love this Sowell guy bc hes an apologists for all the racists out here. Joseph Goebbels, who would eventually become Reich Minister of Propaganda once the Nazi Party seized control of Germany, wrote in his diary about Hitler’s rejection of socialism at that 1926 meeting, “I feel as if someone had knocked me on the head ... my heart aches so much. ... A horrible night! Surely one of the greatest disappointments of my life.”
anyone who studies Hitler /Nazis/WW2 knows Hitler viewed socialism as a political organizing mechanism for the German people more broadly: a way of creating a “people’s community” - the volksgemeinschaft - that would bring everyday Germans (and businesspeople) together not based on their class but on their race and ethnicity. Thus, he would use the unifying aspects of “National Socialism” to get everyday Germans on board with the Nazi program while simultaneously negotiating with powerful businesses and the Junkers, industrialists and nobility, who would ultimately help Hitler gain total power over the German state.
If it fits the rights narrative that no one group is to be blamed for anything, no one is responsible, bootstrap mentality etc then that persons ideal (1/2 truth or not) is welcomed. It fits the narrative. Not hard to understand
This is why I read comments. Valuable information. Danke info we are not suposed to know. Like the real reason for the german stand down at the british evacuation of ....beaches of Dunkirk. Or the Aug5/41 first ever bombing of civilians in Berlin by the british(a mistake claimed because of clouds??) or dresden firebombing or that the h is a complete fabrication.
Sowell is very good at presenting half-truths and distortions convincingly. It helps that he's a professor and can sound objective. You have the knowledge to call out his half-truths, but most Americans do not, and I think most people regardless of political inclinations or nationality are fine with half-truths that support their opinions.
History is written by the victors.
I admire that Sowell addressed Germantown 1688. I hope people will internalize it and that it becomes common US-American knowledge.
Amazing, it helped me to understand what I never could understand, still tears are tears
France and England wanted to defeat Germany since 1905. Germany is a great nation of people, who got most things right. And, answer the question correctly, what group people (two) declared war on Germany first? (one being in 1933)
Very well put,what group of people ,not which country.And what or who gave those people the right to declare war on a nation? Think Hitler may have known what was coming? He was possible well aware of the political and financial power these people possessed.Even in the Roman empire they where feared, by the Roman senate.

I dont know if YT knows my thoughts that well by now... Just a few days ago i had an argument with someone that blamed german culture for a recent shooting in the USA, just because the shooter had an anglicized german name, but ignored that the victims had german names too, and not even anglicized. It just happened in a region where many people with german descent live. And it got very emotional and personal, despite the other person has no personal connection to the incident at all, he wanted Germany take responsibility for exporting that kind of culture. I was out of words at some point and left the argument as i saw no point continuing. Now i wish i had this video to help me make my point. And its not the first time similar happened. I tried to forget all the times a was called a Nazi. Like that one time when i was 10yo, i was with one of my best friend who was turkish. We were surrounded by a group of north african children and i was humiliated for being a german and my friend was told not to hang out with such like me.
I dont understand racism and this despise between people. There are good and bad in all colors and shapes. But i tend to believe that everyone can do great in the right circumstances, but unfortunately also the most worst.
We are all just apes in suits...
Somehow, the Pretty People, at the local coffee shop, manage

I have seen, at least small group, of African-Americans commenting on the objective innocence of that ethnic German teen, vs the much older men who were shot, also ethnic German adult men but with violent criminal histories, always against helpless victims, women and children, one who brutalized his grandmother, much domestic violence with a "repeater" designation.
I don't believe that they were as much pro Bee El Em as much as anti police, given their history of being arrested and sent to jail. One served a long time in prison for doing grape on boys under the age of 11.
The POC subject of the rioting and burning had his own criminal history of serious domestic violence. The one mystery man, jump kick later identified there's PLC with a long criminal history, also serious domestic violence.
Ironically, much Kristallnacht inflicted on businesses which were sometimes German and sometimes POC minority.
I saw the sNazzi word thrown around, but I did not know until this moment that anyone tried to connect that to the "German race". Despicable.
I can 100% assure you that the people with foul opinions have never visited Germany. Cultural ignorance is a huge problem in the US. I even see it in the comments section. This is a pretentious video talks a long breath about common knowledge but fails to mention what's important, which is the ill effects of war propaganda. It's that simple. The Allied Powers put out the smear campaign to give the world a poor view of Germany in the early 1900s. Neo-Nazis are a set of racist American groups that prey on abused and abandoned young people to commit crimes. The members at the top earn large sums of money, while the foot soldiers ruin their lives. It's not a German culture. It's American culture.
I agreed with you until your last statement.
We are most certainly not just apes in suits, because if we were, no one would attempt to prosecute the violent deeds of the wrongdoers. We do not seek to implement “justice” when a lion kills an antelope for food or a rival lion for dominance. No, humans are different, unique in the world.
The Bible tells us that we are made in the image of God, unlike all the creatures of the animal kingdom. And as image bearers, we have traits analogous to God’s own traits - volition, accountability, morality, to name a few. He manifests these perfectly, however, while ours are corrupted by sin passed down from our forebears, Adam and Eve.
And just as Adam and Eve tried to shift the blame for their sin onto others, even onto God himself, so too have humans tried to avoid accountability for their sins ever since.
The theory of Darwinian evolution even props up this blame shifting. “After all, we are just animals.” Except we aren’t. No one holds funerals for roadkill or squashed mosquitoes. No one takes the killer snake or lion to trial for their “murders.”
No, we are unique. And there’s no running from this terrible and wonderful truth.
@@reddawn8230 Well, than we may never be on the same page on this.
I just pick up your last sentence and say this:
"And there’s no running from this terrible and wonderful truth."
Yes we are part of this nature, we are no different, we are one. By separating us we make a crucial mistake and might lose our connection which is fundamental for our very survival. This rock that circles around the sun, and somehow has developed a biotope that makes live possible is the most precious thing. Its terrifying and yet wonderfull. There is no need for further explanation why life is wondefull, just now its very rare in this universe and very fragile. Enough reason to cherrish and protect it. We are part of it, we are no different, we are one.
Good day my friend. 🖖
Sad that the history of Weimar Republic has been lost in the Nazi period. Between 1918 and 1933 they got rid of their monarchy without a bloodbath and prevented a communist takeover without a protracted civil war and then established the most liberal democracy that had ever existed. The real lesson of the war in Europe is that ANY country can fall to a dictator.
What do you mean the history of the Weimar Republic got lost?!? We know all about it in detail. Are you saying that it was lost during the 3rd Reich? Implausible, because people had a good memory of it.

Dr Sowell is a gift from God found out about him ten year ago from youtube and Rush, addictive listening
When The Great War began, the American Jewish community tended to support the Central Powers due to (a) their German-Austrian heritage, where applicable; (b) the freedoms the Jews experoenced within the Austria-Hungarian empire; and (c) the anti -Jewish pogroms inflicted upon the Jews of Czarist Russia.
I always like listening to Sowell.
The movie “The 49th Parallel” has some scenes about German enclaves in Canada who were open minded, and the allegedly racist filmmaker Leni Riefenstahl made a number of books and photographs and studies of the African tribes, while even as she published those, she was accused of racism and fascism simply because she celebrated the various tribes and their endorsement of beauty in the human form. The media accused her of fascist adoration of the human form. It’s so preposterous that I can’t imagine why she’d be accused of such a neutral artistic adoration of the human form as somehow fascist. If she portrayed African people as subhuman I might understand, but she glorified the beauty of the human body. Race had little to do with it.
Commies playbook stuff.
The New Left (which came to the fore in the '60s) regards the celebration of genuine human beauty and health as "fascist" (and "racist", "imperialist", "sexist", etc.).
Allegedly racist. I almost missed "allegedly". Whenever small print is involved I am careful not to use this phrase "allegedly something". 🙂
Leni Reifenstahl made the Nazi propaganda film Triumph of the Will. It is what she is most infamous for, and why she is strongly, and correctly, associated with the Nazi regime. It is the natural consequence of producing propaganda for totalitarians. It is as murderous to your reputation as they are to multitudes of their victims.
Leni Riefenstahl was not racist and neither was Adolf. I know, after 70- years of indoctrination hard to believe.
By the way, Germany was allied with Italy,Japan,Egypt,Lybia,Palestine. The Asian Free Cor,Hindu Free Cor, Arab and African Free Cor joined the Axis.
The funny thing is Germanys opponents: Britain,France,Poland,Soviet-Union and the USA, a full blown white-colonial-communist alliance.
I have been through alot of literature from that time and the Germans was not the racist they have been sold to be.
DuBois and Lawrence (US-Historian and a US Diplomat) worked in Germany during the rule of the NSDAP. Both have stated that the German officials have not showed a trace of hate against Blacks or any other race. Both meant that the problem in Germany is mostly a political issue between the European powers.
Jesse Owens,Jo Lewis to just name two US Black athletes only spoke positive about the Germans.
One thing is for sure, the Germans didnt turn into racists and monsters over night or because a man by the name Adolf turned the Germans upside down.
I have a learned more listening to Thomas Sowell than I did in all four years of college.

Mr. Sowell: I'd like to thank you for these video clips. My grandfather was an ethnic German conscripted into the Polish Army in 1922. It was there that he witnessed the brutality of Polish sergeants against Orthodox Jewish recruits. Due to the volatile situation of Bolsheviks on the doorstep; there was little tolerance of any minority group and Jewish recruits were forced to conform. 20 years later in a family photograph, you can see various Nazi badges on family members with the exception of my uncle Franz who refused to fit in. He recognized the evil of a dictatorship but could not escape the situation. Later on he was conscripted into the Wehrmacht and became a POW in France. The truth is that most people were unaware of the extent of the atrocities and were also conditioned not to ask questions.
watch the documentary : "one third of the holocaust"
That's funny, my Great Grandfather was in a Polish concentration camp. He didn't see any atrocities, and was treated very well, despite him knowing what his people had just done to the Germans in Danzig.
My Great Grandmother was born in a gas chamber, her mom was then killed by being tossed into the room where 6 foot knives would come out of the floor and then an incinerator would burn the remains in a flash of a second. They then stuffed my Great Grandmother into a soccer ball and used her in the tournament game between the prisoners and guards. She luckily survived.

Three million in Poland 2 million in soviet union a million in other occupied Europe
6 millions of Polish citizens were killed and out of that half was Jewish, and one can ask why so much more of them lived in much smaller Poland?

He ironically disproved his own point that the NSDAP were ignorant folk, and couldn't cement any proof of the event that is illegal to question because it has so many holes.
He ironically proved that the NSDAP drew it's strength from banding together with positive ideals instead of self destructive democracy and individualism. Then falsely claimed that they had believed themselves superior, when they were in fact just that as they had taken control and started to organize more and more.
In other words, some guy tried to mimic the NSDAP and ironically proved that it's a better system and created stronger people with the will to better themselves and their nation. Only for the teacher to lie again and desperately try to stop what he started.
Had it been someone outside the smolhat tribe, he would have been vilified for the rest of his life and probably assassinated if the movement wasn't stopped.
I thought that happened in the 70's. I could be wrong. The book and tv movie is called "The Wave." I believe the experiment got out of hand, and the teacher proved his point.

David Irving was debunked.
@rabbit Ever see the movie Denial? Factually - the main evidence in that court case in Britain debunked a lot of David Irving's claims.
American Jews supported Germany during most of WWI because they didn't like the Russian Czar. But after the Jews made a deal with the British government in 1916 there was a sudden shift in their loyalties. The Jews promised the British they would use their prominent positions within the American media and government to get the US into the war in return for Palestine after the war was over. The US entered the war and turned the tide in Britain's favor and afterward the British held the indigenous Palestinian population at bay as Jews from around the world immigrated and began setting up a separate nation. This deal just happened to lengthen the war by a couple of years and several million deaths.
What Jewish group made a deal with britain? Because it wasn't a loose bunch of synagogue goers who negotiated with britain.
The jews were leaving Germany, Poland Austria etc etc by 1933. Well before the start of the war

The leftist democrats have lost contact with facts , logic and truth………
China is going down, they want to take over the West to replace their failed economy and failed policies.
There is nothing monstrous about defending yourself. Everyone has the right to defend himself. Do you know what communism is?
It's also interesting to note that Germany was the only country to be punished after WW1 and WW2 they seem to be europes whipping boy.
Odd thing to say. Post war Germany grew wealthy because the international community embraced them. The Soviets were hated even though they were allies with the West during the wars.
“The only punished country”? Really? WW1 and Treaty of Trianon which cut off Hungary that 1/3 of Hungarian people found themselves in neighbouring countries.
WW2 and leaving half of Europe under Soviet rule.
Etc., etc.
Well, Finland had to pay significant war reparations to USSR after the WW2. We the Finns didn't want nor start any war with the Russian Bear but just made a "mistake" of defending ourselves with Germany's assistance. In 1944-45 we then for a change had to fight against Germans in Lappland to please Stalin.
Every country which looses a war, is punished in a sense that it has to cede territories and to pay reparations.
The special thing about Germany is that not only her government but the whole nation was declared to be GULITY to have started WW1 and WW2. Germany, a nation of criminals. They had to punished severly as they had destroyed world peace. This was not only propaganda of the allies but part of the Versailles Treaty 1919 and the treatment of ethnic Germans after unconditional surrender. For example expulsion of 15 mio. Germans or
Expulsion and treatment of the people in the occupied areas. Mio. died as enough food and coal for heating was denied by the occupation powers.
Instead, even today these years are described as liberation. Its only admitted, that living conditions were poor and many people were hungry.
My Grandmother lived under Hitler. They were starving. The conditions after ww1 was absolute chaos. An orderly people were desperate.
And that's why Gina Carrano got booted off social media.......she was too correct.

I kind of really want to study more history.. I know a fare amount in different parts of the world, but watching videos like these makes me realize how little I know..
I am going through the same. Buying old books on history helps to shake off today's spin.
I find it interesting that some historians trace "anti-semitism" to Russia. In a story that sounds remarkably similar to today's cancel culture, people who objected to the murderous and destructive sprees of Bolsheviks were accused of being "anti-semitic." No one wanted to be "that guy." Going further back, some historians link the Jewish communists to revenge for conflicts much earlier between Khazarian Jews and Russia. Going forward a bit, some historians note that a quiet communist takeover was already beginning in Germany, and that Jewish people seemed to be up to their eyeballs in it - pornographic entertainment establishment, banking shenanigans, some how profiting as others were failing. This must have been going on to some extent before and during WWI (where my youthful grandfather saw massive inflation and his family fled to the countryside to survive, and he left for the USA as soon as he could). The chaos and confusion of this situation, combined with Darwin's ideologies, probably created the same sort of constant tension that we have in the US today (and in other countries as well). By the '30's it must have been absolutely exhausting, and the people desperate for order and peace...Ripe for a leader promising to make all the nonsense stop.
I suspect the cabal that brought us communist revolutions and Hitler's Germany has blood kin and cronies that are around today, up to their old tricks. They are using skin color, gender and abortion as the levers of strife this time. It is extremely interesting to me that there are Orthodox Jews who look back on Hitler as a "good guy."
