Is that what we said to you when it happened to you?
You mean WW2? I don't know if US propaganda covers this, but Europe was fighting the Nazis for like a year or two before the US entered. As I recall, you guys were staying out of it, with an isolationist stance, until you were attacked by the Japanese.
But could Germany have ever turned back from fascism on its own, without any help whatsoever? Let's say the entire continent just let the Nazis have their way and let Carl Schmitt and Leo Strauss play out their experimental new form of government out to its horrible logical conclusion. Could Germany ever come back from that? Could the world?
The world, yes. Germany, probably not. As the citizens got increasingly fed up with their governments antics, there would have been revolts and protests. These are Germans, not Americans, they hadn't been propagandized into submission beforehand.
True, but they had been riding a wave of Pan-Germanism prior to the Nazis. Germany had many diverse regions that didn't see each other as equals prior to the Weimar Republic.
I don't know if you know this, but if the US falls, the whole world falls with it. There will be no turning back, no one will be spared. Who knows, maybe evolution will start over with another species, and they'll do the same shit, over and over again until the sun burns out.
