The real Steiner's counter attack

[@_courier7]

Famous and mythical commander Steiner has reincarnated through this man

[@maiqtheliar789]

In some alternate universe this actually happened and everyone talks about how Hitler and Steiner were geniuses and how his generals that told him it wouldn't work are the idiots. They just didn't understand the plan of luring the allies into a massive trap in the middle of Europe using Churchill's obsession with the soft underbelly of Europe against the allies to destroy all of the allied armies. 4d chess move right there.

[@liubei3058]

@@eur0cyon597 regardless of brainwashing, National Socialism is surprisingly self sabotaging. They were in severe deficit by the time ww2 started, and their heavy regulations or outright taking businesses from private individuals (handing it over to members of the National Socialist Party, aka the government), and their horrendous economic policies weren’t exactly going to keep them afloat. They controlled prices, from who what businesses could purchase, what they could purchase and how many, and even how they sunk tremendous amounts into synthetic oil that wasn’t exactly profitable. National Socialist Germany had a lot of economic problems that were either softened due to war spoils, or were left overs of more capitalistic policies that were changed during the course of the war. The Germans even had a Kommisar in charge of price control. There was a thriving black market in National Socialist Germany, but not for guns. Rather for basic things like food. Also, the National Socialists were Racial Socialists, rather than class socialists like marxists. As the National Socialists continued to purge more and more of their own populace for not being ‘Aryans’, they’ll have less and less ability to make and sell products. Slave labor is also not as profitable as paying a worker outright, as both the USSR and National Socialist Germany found out. Slaves don’t want to work as hard, seeing as they’re most likely going to be worked to the grave anyways. Ontop of that, once A.H. Goes the way of the dodo, if his Reich lasted that long, men like Himmler, Goring, Speer, Borman, and others would most likely battle it out for supremacy. A.H. Encouraged his Reich to compete with one another, even sending two men completely opposing orders if I am right but I could be mistaken , to see which would do their job better. National Socialism was even less stable and successful than the USSR economically. The US wouldn’t need to lift a finger. The Reich would do the work for them. At the price of countless lives, but the Reich will still topple itself.
