There's a good deal of truth to this.


Germany invaded poland because of the depression? We learned in history that the treaty of Versailles was the major driver

WW2 was a result of the Great Depresseion which FDR failed to handle.

Eisenhower was the only one man enough to clean up FDR's mess and end the war.


I think economically it put pressure on people and created an opening for a very nationalist attitude and very real struggles worldwide and within GER. However the underlying cause was a group of people deciding to eradicate others.. There are plenty of options to poverty besides genocide.

The Nazis' rise to power was fueled on the Great Depression.

"the underlying cause was a group of people deciding to eradicate others.."
they did so for quite some time before we got involved. (outside of aid)

eradicating a race of people can give the world an "enemy", but that doesn't mean we care enough to fight.
i.e. China has been and is continuing to imprison (and worse) Muslims. should there be a WW3 right now over this alone? (maybe, but there's not)

The China Tribunal, a group that's investigating the organ harvesting, said at a tense meeting of the United Nations Human Rights Council that the Chinese government was taking hearts, kidneys, lungs, and skin from groups including Uighur Muslims and members of the Falun Gong religious group.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The United States accused China on Friday of putting well more than a million minority Muslims in “concentration camps,” in some of the strongest U.S. condemnation to date of what it calls Beijing’s mass detention of mostly Muslim Uighur minority and other Muslim groups.

Muslims were detained for re-education by China‘s government and made to eat pork and drink alcohol, according to a former internment camp inmate.

Omir Bekali, one among perhaps a million people reportedly arrested and held in mass re-education camps, said he was detained without trial or access to a lawyer and forced to disavow his beliefs while praising the Communist Party.

Mr Bekali, a Kazakh citizen, said he contemplated suicide after 20 days in the facility – which itself followed seven months in a prison.

Since spring last year authorities in Xinjiang region have confined tens or even hundreds of thousands of Muslims in the camps, including some foreign nationals. One estimate put the figure at a million or more.

A US commission called it the “the largest mass incarceration of a minority population in the world today” while a leading historian called it “cultural cleansing”.

just google "China Muslim". you can pick whatever news media you like and there have been tons of articles for many years about all of it. here we are on jsp

A fundamental tenant of conservatism is lack of change. They have been using the same bullshit arguments on virtually every subject for 100 years.

the only argument you've had for the last 4 years is "orange man bad and if you like him you're in a cult. please no one listen to the arguments of cultists because i can't actually argue their points"

I'm not surprised you think that considering the sources you listen to.
