Why does it feel Different this time?

It seems that class takes a backseat in discourse, even in Marxist-Leninist spaces. Also, it seems that the reliance on "civilian groups" seems to backfire a lot, especially in American politics, since it allows corporate influence, as well as other opportunists, to take control of certain services and departments of the government. I will say that the German government during the 1930s seems just as incompetent as the current fascist movements today... but that they can still get into power and subdue other bourgeois factions is noteworthy.

Also, yeah, the Nazis are portrayed as more "competent" than how they actually were.

What do you think of the video?

About 30 minutes long; mostly talking.
