Today we continued on the powerpoint. Talked about Nazi Propaganda. All propaganda must be so popular and on such an intellectual level, that even thee most stupid of those toward whom it is directed will understand it... Through clever and constant application of propaganda, people can be made ot see paradise as hell, and also the other way around, to consider the most wretcheed sort of life as paradise.--Adolf Hitler. Nazis went after people who were stupid and werent going to go to college. People who didnt have a good future ahead of them thought the military looked like a good option. The kellogg-briand pact. It outlawed war. We talked just a little bit about Joseph Stalin and how he probably was responsible for more deaths than hitler. Talked about the Japanese invasion of Manchuria. They wanted more resources and needed new markets. Manchuria basically had all the resources and goods they needed. The league of nation did nothing after this. Hitler made the Nuremburg laws. Even if you had one Jewish grandparent and you werent Jewish you were still at risk in Nazi Germany. Jews could only marry jews. He didnt want to create a mixed race. second to jews Hitler hated Gypsies.
He talked about the Nazi science experiments. Josef Mengele was the chief physician at auschwitz trying to figure out way to make peoples eyes blue all the time and gross stuff like that. Trying to create the Aryan Race. Was misused by the nazis to mean a so called master race that originated around Germany. Perfect Aryan was blonde, blue-eyed, muscular people. Talked about the Rome-Berlin Axis. Mussokini said the earth was going to rotate on its axis and he said it was going to rotate around Rome and Berlin. Talked about the quarantine speech. we werent going to get involved. We were neutral.
