I went to school in the mid 50's with a lad who clicked his heals and saluted Adolph Hitler frequently, especially at recess. He claimed to be related to Hitler and that his parents had moved to the US after WW2. He would the right age for all of it to be true. He spoke fluent German and was rather dilegent in his zeal for Hitler for someone his age. We were 8 or 10 years old at the time. Considering the anti-nazi sentiment at the time this fellow was a definite departure from the norm.

stalin was worse than hitler. the difference is he stopped conquering his neighbors after finland and ww2.

[@sockaccount8116]

@A Frustrated Gamer No, the Germans wanted to exchange a couple of High-Ranking German officers and generals for Stalin's son, and Stalin refused to "exchange a common soldier for a general", it wasn't like he didn't want his son back, he simply wanted to show there aren't nepotistic exemptions. Also, the part about him being disappointed in his son commiting suicide is a myth

As long as you're talking about very specific and rather useless knowledge you're right. In my experience I've learned more about the broader history of the world during history class than just about the history of the second world war. But perhaps this is a good solution if your school did not provide you with a good history education. I think It's a great thing this channel is doing in terms of educating the masses.

[@loddude5706]

@@douwee.855 - Kipling could be 'specific' too: 'If you can think, yet not make thought your aim' . . . 'rather useless knowledge' smells more of the 'draw' of the lamp, than awareness of it's message.

Douwe E. It’s rather unfortunate that from my elementary to 8th grade year in American school, “history class” was always a bland telling of our revolutionary war and an even blander unit in 7th grade on the Romans and Greeks. There needs to be a reform in how one of the most important subjects is taught..
