Modern History: What were these People Thinking?

What a fine piece I was going to write about the seeds of Nazi philosophy!

  • First there were Theosophists such as Madame Blavatsky talking a whole bunch of mumbo jumbo about Aryan races. 
  • Then some theosophist or ariosophist named Guido von List combined tales and theories that combine new age theories with some of Blavatsky's stuff about the origins of German folklore, all this stuff that came from the time of German tribes living in the forests and resisting Roman efforts to colonize their country. 
  • That led to this former Cisterian monk named Lanz von Liebenfels spinning further legends, more folklore, more stuff that had a big impact on the Nazi movement.  
  • Then came the Thule Society. 
  • Then came the DAP. 
  • Then that became the Nazi Party. 
  • Then you had the Third Reich.
What I got from all this reading and printing and research was the conclusion that the Nazi regime got its start from a bunch of delusional people who should have been locked away in mental institutions and given psychiatric drugs to keep them quiet.

And it didn't even end when the Nazis rose to power. Himmler was into all this mystical stuff and so were a whole bunch of other Nazis with power.

They ate it all up! All this mystical legend and volkish folklore was popular with these Nazi monsters simply because it was the only body of gibberish that justified their BS philosophy.

Had they tried to rely on hard real science they would have been forced to conclude that there was no justification for even their very own existence as a movement. The gibberish, the rigamarole was all that they, the Nazis, had to stand on. 

They made the entire German population end up looking like a bunch of screwed up goons and fools.

That leads to my sense of disgust about all this history about this political movement.

Fifty million people who should have been left alone to just live --  had to be sacrificed for absolutely nothing.

Millions of people tortured, murdered, displaced from their homes, cities bombed, countries rising against other countries, lives disrupted, resources wasted worldwide -- and for what?

To deal with a bunch of thugs and gangsters and a criminal regime made out of psychopaths - all this horror was built on a bunch of crazy people who didn't know how to deal with the down side of the real life. And they took it out on innocent people.

After having read all that research of a regime that built itself out of all this - I realize that this material is simply not worth the time I'd put into the research and the writing and the rewriting a history like this.

I had been so enthralled by the histories such as the history of how a total loser in life, like Adolf Hitler, rose to get such power that he was able dictate over millions of people.

What makes such a biography so scary is how many people with hangups are out there who would love to become dictators and go after imagined persecutors and enemies and destroy entire populations of people.

All this actually happened with Hitler and Nazi Germany and he justified all his insanity out of a body of b*ll*h*t cranked out by all these crackpots that staked their reputations and their energies from all the irrational and ridiculous thoughts that occupied their heads.

Now that I gave my edgewise fifty cents worth of mind - I'm challenging you reader.

Yep!! What do you want me to do?  Do you want me to keep putting material into this blog or what?

I put some comment bars down on this blog.  Let me know what you want or else, I'll just move over into self help and try to make some money from out of my writing.

Dear Reader, I'll stay or leave based on what you want to read that comes out of me.
