I mean, Hitler very clearly wrote in Mein Kampf that he DID take inspiration from socialism, except that, like all other communist dictators before or after him, he thought that HE had found the missing ingredient to make it work.

He also very explicitly said that the nazis weren't socialist, and all of the parties policies were hard capitalist.

Hah, imagine getting a “capitalist” education from people who don’t have to worry about their own job security because they have tenure. Isn’t that just like getting a communist education from a Wall Street CEO?

We live in a capitalist society. Any attempt to claim this isn't capitalism and we have a shift toward actual capitalism is an attempt to sell you fascism.

Also pretty sure most of them were adjuncts.

Yes. The secret ingredient was (and always is) called violence.

Yes. When they removed the secret ingredient, the landlords could not maintain their property relations with the peasants. That is correct.

Yes, I condemn all violence, capitalist or otherwise. But I honestly don’t experience capitalism as particularly violent.

Well then either you're really sheltered or you haven't been paying attention.

My biggest successes all came through non-violent means, by educating myself and improving my technical and people skills. Amazingly, it turns out that if you’re willing to learn what others will pay you for, more often than not, they’ll actually just hand you money without you having to make any threats about taking over their whole company.

Oh, well if it worked for you, I guess those slave laborers can just pull themselves up by their bootstraps. And all those genocide victims should have just spent more time educating themselves.
