THE ROBERT W. WHITAKER ARCHIVE

QUICK NOTE TO BUDARICK | 2006-07-26

Budarick says,

"Hitler did not believe in Politics."

******** If you will reread Mein Kampf, you will see that when he decided wht to do with his life at the end of World War I, he says, "I decided to go into politics."

Hitler did not believe in democracy, but under a dictatorship a huge bureaucracy invariably burgeons. If you don't think bureaucracy involves politics, you've never worked in one. NS Germany was a beehive of politics.

You just got the word wrong. I do that ALL the time.

One myth our dictators tells us is that democracy is the opposite of dictatorship. The truth is that democracy normally and quickly becomes a dictatorship. This is why our Founding Fathers refused to set up a democracy either in the states respectively or in the states federated.

We have never had a democracy. Since 1865 and especially since 1945, we have had a dictatorship and now it is global.

Bob, you are being too lenient with me.

But i am glad that you can see beyond the words i make.

That tells me that here is a man who has been around

who in any data-gathering work he may have to do,

is not going to get derailed by some imprecision

of language usage his target makes.

Now if i were the normal scumbag i would say,

"Oh i was just testing you Bob".

Well i was NOT testing you.

No, i belive Hitler wanted to transcend "politics"

but he realized he had to fully understand it first.

He had to understand how it works.

I am a bit worried in that he probably did NOT understand it.

Because if you understand politcs you don't enter that domain.

Joe is clapping now!

But Hitler was not your normal liberal hippy artist idealist.

He attempted the impossible.

For this reason he was deemed mad!

I believe it is fruitful to analyse his work form that perspective.

PGB.
