Exactly. Folks, it’s not just the racism and rampant militarism that makes fascism bad- it turns out its also a terrible and inefficient way to run a society!
I should make an effort post later about a lecture given by a WWII historian on how ideology shaped tank design and production among different nations. It’s amazing the Germans put up a fight at all, given how inefficient the Tiger was compared to the Sherman and T-34.
yeah, the more you find out about how the nazi state was actually run, the more you realize that there’s absolutely no basis for the german efficiency myth here. it was a bunch of squabbling fucks in a trench coat.
