Re: Was Hitler funded by big business?
.
Is your "cause" the banning of all youtube videos here? Or just some?
I post videos from fakeotube, bitchute and vimeo also.
I assume that viewers can exercise discernment and critical judgement on their own.
Often I post a youtube video in order to evaluate the content, or criticize the video itself.
Do you feel this would be a "safe space" if I stopped posting all youtube videos?
Just what "cause" do you imagine is represented here?
We have this forum organized by topics.
Glenn: Feel free to post videos of your own choosing if you like.
And you can criticize or endorse them as you like.
It's called "free and open discourse".

Re: Was Hitler funded by big business?
August 1936
==============
Both Hitler and Mussolini had made TIME magazine's "Man of the Year cover.
Mussolini several times.
Both Mussolini's government and the Third Reich's prestige were high, due to their success in creating "full employment" economies and restoring societal order and political stability.
Between the German and British aristocracies, there were centuries of common family relationships.
In particular, the British royal dynasty was originally "Saxe-Coburg";
before the new family name "Windsor" (after the castle) was fabricated as a function of WW I psywar.
The Ribbentrops were one such family,

World War I - "All Quiet on the Western Front"
This is about the literary and cinematic legacy of “the war to end all wars”: World War I.
The publication of Remarque’s “All Quiet on the Western Front” (and its subsequent movie spectacle) unleashed a storm of controversy and violence in Germany and Austria.
The “stab in the back” explanation for Germany’s defeat, and their humiliating submission to the Treaty of Versailles, was still fresh in 1929.
The Wall Street crash of that year, and subsequent catastrophic depression in Germany only intensified feelings of bitterness, rage and a surging demand for some kind of national salvation and redemption.
Goebbels and the NSDAP made the movie and the novel a major target of their electoral campaigns, demonstrations and SA ("brown shirts") street actions.

Re: World War I - "All Quiet on the Western Front"
A more detailed examination of the several different cinematic treatments given Remarque's novel "All Quiet on the Western Front" in 1930, 1979 and 2022.
All are considered flawed; and fail to measure up to the power of the novel.
War movies based on important novels have always been difficult to transpose.
(e.g. "The Red Badge of Courage", "From Here to Eternity", "Catch-22", "Slaughterhouse-Five")
It's a harsh critical review.
The 1930 version would have been one of the earliest "talkies" presented to theater audiences that were only familiar with silent films.
An amazing experience for them to watch and hear.
I personally like the 1979 version best, because one of my favorite actors co-starred in it:
Ernest Borgnine. I also thought Richard Thomas' performance as the young soldier telling his story was quite reasonable and modestly understated. Generally a good film.
The 2022 version rated poorly with me. You might as well skip it.
