They were very skillful at co-opting ancient symbols. Kinda like Christianity.

nickalicious (nickalicious), Monday, 12 January 2004 17:41 (twenty-two years ago)

Hmmm... I kind of like all the Teutonic-pagan folklore references. They occasionally displayed a compelling aesthetic sense.

I like Hogan's Heroes. That's probably about it.

Great Indiana Jones villians, obv.

Jordan (Jordan), Monday, 12 January 2004 17:42 (twenty-two years ago)

the Schutzstaffen looked fucking spiffy in their dress uniforms. Also thanks to them we made massive advances in aeronautical technology resulting in supersonic flight and our setting foot on the moon.

They also taught us all a lesson which we will not soon forget, I hope.

TOMBOT, Monday, 12 January 2004 17:43 (twenty-two years ago)

Tom beat me to the "sharp dressers" comment, alas.

Alex in NYC (vassifer), Monday, 12 January 2004 17:44 (twenty-two years ago)

They make good villians in films = no-body has any sympathy for them.

Nazi regalia = useful props for bdsm scenarios perhaps?

"The Producers" is very funny in places.

Angharienne Bradshaw (Angharienne Bradshaw), Monday, 12 January 2004 17:45 (twenty-two years ago)

They weren't really sharp dressers, it was all too camp.

Didn't they do a few socialist-type things, like building holiday housing for the working classes on the North Sea

Jonathan Z., Monday, 12 January 2004 17:46 (twenty-two years ago)

Actually, when I was watching Indiana Jones & The Last Crusade for the umpteenth time last weekend, I found myself wondering how it went over in Germany.

Jordan (Jordan), Monday, 12 January 2004 17:47 (twenty-two years ago)

Their military hardware was the best (me-262, tiger 2 tank etc etc etc)

Pashmina (Pashmina), Monday, 12 January 2004 17:48 (twenty-two years ago)

Actually, when I was watching Indiana Jones & The Last Crusade for the umpteenth time last weekend, I found myself wondering how it went over in
Germany.

I don't know about that, but I do know that the sublime Wanda Jackson song "Fujiyama Mama" went over huge in Japan in the 50s and it the immortal lyrics:

I've been to Nagasaki, Hiroshima too!
The things I did to them baby, I can do to you!

'Cause I'm a Fujiyama Mama and I'm just about to blow my top!
Fujiyama-yama, Fujiyama!
And when I start you up, there aint nobody gonna make me stop!

I drank a quart of sake, smoked on a pipe!
I chased it with tobbacy and then shoot out the lights!

'Cause I'm a Fujiyama Mama and I'm just about to blow my top!
Fujiyama-yama, Fujiyama!
And when I start you up, there aint nobody gonna make me stop!

Well you can talk about me, say that I'm mean!
I'll blow your head off baby with nitroglycerine!

'Cause I'm a Fujiyama Mama and I'm just about to blow my top!
Fujiyama-yama, Fujiyama!
And when I start you up, there aint nobody gonna make me stop!

Well you can say I'm crazy, so deaf and dumb!
But I can cause destruction just like the atom bomb!

'Cause I'm a Fujiyama Mama and I'm just about to blow my top!
Fujiyama-yama, Fujiyama!
And when I start you up, there aint nobody gonna make me stop!

I drank a quart of sake, smoked on a pipe!
I chased it with tobbacy and then shoot out the lights!

'Cause I'm a Fujiyama Mama and I'm just about to blow my top!
Fujiyama-yama, Fujiyama!
And when I start you up, there aint nobody gonna make me stop!

Huckleberry Mann (Horace Mann), Monday, 12 January 2004 17:53 (twenty-two years ago)

They've managed to prop up the film industry since 1940.

One could suggest they helped to hasten the end of colonial empire.

pete s, Monday, 12 January 2004 17:54 (twenty-two years ago)

except the person at lyricsbox.com thinks it's "when I start you up" instead of "when I start eruptin'" which makes a million times more sense if you know that Fujiyama is a volcano.

Who, Werner Von Braun? I think he helped on the Apollo program, but the shuttle?

andy, Monday, 12 January 2004 18:03 (twenty-two years ago)

the volkswagen beetle design was pinched from tatra of czecho-slovakia. The nazis prevented tatra's equivalent car, the t-97 from being produced during the war years, after the war vw had to pay compensation to tatra. If you google stuff about this, it's quite an interesting story.

nice one pash, i knew the Beetle wasn't strictly a Nazi invention but their realisation. so you have little Adolf to thank for Herbie Goes Bananas and not just that other Nazi (ho ho).

Eisbär (llamasfur), Monday, 12 January 2004 18:54 (twenty-two years ago)

maybe we should go do an exchange with some Nazi discussion forum like Stormfr0nt, so they can come over here and give us the real reasons why the Ratzis rock.

If the nazis had never existed I woudln't have got to play one ina short film last summer and the director woudln';t have won an award for it being the best short film made by a Devon director last year.

Nick Southall (Nick Southall), Monday, 12 January 2004 20:10 (twenty-two years ago)

Russell Crowe and Ed Norton both looked really hot as neo-Nazis.

I did not look hot as a nazi.

Nick Southall (Nick Southall), Monday, 12 January 2004 20:19 (twenty-two years ago)

Where hot = sexy rather than 'at too high a temperature'.

Can't see the director saying, "Thank the Nazi regime for my this award", if he/she ever plans to make another.

Nichole Graham (Nichole Graham), Monday, 12 January 2004 20:22 (twenty-two years ago)

Nichole Graham (Nichole Graham), Monday, 12 January 2004 20:25 (twenty-two years ago)

The Sound of Music is about Nazis, at least tangentially. Haven't you ever seen the Sound of Music, Nick?

Nope.

Nick Southall (Nick Southall), Monday, 12 January 2004 20:27 (twenty-two years ago)

I had to sing one of the songs at school when I was about 10, and I swore to myself it would never make me suffer again.

Nick Southall (Nick Southall), Monday, 12 January 2004 20:28 (twenty-two years ago)

Well, ok, basically the entire end of the movie is about them trying to escape from the Nazis who are trying to strong arm the singing father dude into working for them since he's some kind of really supa gay decorated military guy. It's a stupid movie and quite frankly I never thought of it the way Dan put it forth; the Nazis really truly were sick and evil if they are responsible for this. Seriously though, the last hour of that movie is Nazis and nunneries and singing.

BTW Nichole was that joke meant to be funny?

Allyzay, Monday, 12 January 2004 20:31 (twenty-two years ago)

Also, I got to portray a guy who disapproved of the Nazis but was willing to live in a country controlled by them in high school. I was told by many (kind and sheltered) parents that they didn't buy casting a black person in that role at first, but my portrayal made them buy into the idea that a black man could have survived in Nazi Austria.

Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Monday, 12 January 2004 20:34 (twenty-two years ago)

Nazis in uniting Nick and Dan in dramatic excellence shock?

Eisbär (llamasfur), Monday, 12 January 2004 20:38 (twenty-two years ago)

Actually you'd probably be quite interested in the film, Dan. John Sealey, the director, is a local black film-maker and academic (he's doing a PhD at the uni I work at), and it was a take on the traditional 'escape from POW camp' movie given a Bunuel-ian slant at the end, in which the main protagonist was a black french solider who was left behind when his Polish/Russian fellow POWs escaped down a tunnel and it collapsed, forcing him to find an alternative escape; which he did by dressing in the Nazi commandant's uniform and walking out the gate past the guards. I was a guard on the gate who he asked for a match on his way out. Needless to say, the image of a black guy in full Nazi regalia was a bit fucking shocking.

Nick Southall (Nick Southall), Monday, 12 January 2004 20:39 (twenty-two years ago)

Mainly cos it was too big for him and his hat kept falling off until we sellotaped it to his head.

Nick Southall (Nick Southall), Monday, 12 January 2004 20:41 (twenty-two years ago)

Many companies sold their products to Hitler and apparently IBM "maintained a strategic alliance with the Third Reich in which it licensed, maintained and custom-designed its products for use in the machinery of the Holocaust."
Is "sharing the blame" count for a defense?

Sébastien Chikara (Sébastien Chikara), Monday, 12 January 2004 21:03 (twenty-two years ago)

I was told by many (kind and sheltered) parents that they didn't buy casting a black person in that role at first, but my portrayal made them buy into the idea that a black man could have survived in Nazi Austria.

Scary when black men have an easier time with Hitler and co and they would in the (then) segregated South.

There wouldn't be a Cabaret without the Nazis.

tokyo rosemary (rosemary), Monday, 12 January 2004 22:51 (twenty-two years ago)

I'm very interested in the rhetorical device that the Nazis have become, or even ideological. I mean the sense that in argument or debate, nazism is seen as the absolute evil, it overrides logic in some sense, because an absolute evil does not run parallel to logical argument really. But then again does it? The Nazis are widely considered to have been the biggest evil of all time.

Has anything good been written about this?

Ronan (Ronan), Monday, 12 January 2004 22:59 (twenty-two years ago)

There wouldn't have been a To Be Or Not To Be without the Nazis. But if given a choice...

Michael Daddino (epicharmus), Monday, 12 January 2004 23:01 (twenty-two years ago)

Not a defense of the Nazis, but of Dr. Porsche: That Tatra article is pretty ambiguously written -- since they collaborated early and often, the folks at Tatra may just have well have been ripping off Porsche's ideas.

Defense of the Nazis: Some of the architecture was amazing, and built to last forever.

Colin Meeder (Mert), Tuesday, 13 January 2004 09:20 (twenty-two years ago)

Did any of you Brits see that "Nazi Grand Prix" show on Channel 4 last night? They sure had some spiffy cars - those early Auto-Union (now Audi) and Mercedes were mucho sexy.

And yeah, those SS uniforms were pretty smart (designed by Hugo Boss, BTW).

Rob Bolton (Rob Bolton), Tuesday, 13 January 2004 09:35 (twenty-two years ago)

"The Nazis" didn't invent Fanta, but the German Coca-Cola contract bottler (who I think was a Party member) invented it after the Government banned Coke.

Colin Meeder (Mert), Tuesday, 13 January 2004 10:30 (twenty-two years ago)

I did dress up for one girlfriend as a German soldier, and it seemed to help the sex. (I got the uniform down a local historical military junkshop place. But I like to think I wasn't so much a Nazi as a rank-and-file soldier, which is why I had a helmet instead of a peaked cap. And when I whipped her, I only did so gently.

kuntrie/hardrock-tributes (goole), Monday, 15 December 2008 19:20 (seventeen years ago)

That is a pretty clever way to ensure your children grow up to be white supremacists just like you were, considering they will be lonely and ostracized and probably not begin many friendly unproblematic relationships with non-Christian and non-white people.

nabisco, Monday, 15 December 2008 19:26 (seventeen years ago)

Ludo, Monday, 15 December 2008 20:51 (seventeen years ago)

We tend to take a pretty severe slippery-slope approach when it comes to personal child-rearing freedoms, but on the off chance that those children aren't home-schooled, I get the feeling their middle names will be suppressed like hell in a feckless bid to preserve mental health they don't have much of a shot at either way (and one of them will still be named Honszlynn). The problem is that while they're young and raised by parents like that, their names are going to be the least of their problems: they could be named Sue and Jane and Karl, they're still going to have some jacked-up ideas about the universe that they have no way of understanding are jacked up.

Dressing up as a Nazi and firing blanks on NYE is a good way to get killed apparently.

Certainly a fave concert for me was in the winter months leading up to the Gulf War II, Grant Hart was performing a pitiful dive bar in Chicago and started his set by saying, "at least the Nazi's had cool uniforms" - I think I was the only one laughing ...

In Trump's defense, in the thirties the US government did believe there were "moderate" Nazis, who were led by Hitler pic.twitter.com/BqSIUcOdnI

Hitler was quite a progressive in terms of animal welfare, just not much of a "people person".

calzino, Wednesday, 16 August 2017 12:12 (eight years ago)

the "radical" wing referred to is i assume the strasserite wing* of the nazi party, which was ostensibly hostile to capitalism and advocated the toppling of business and social elites: part of the (all too successful) purpose of the night of the long knives -- a manifestation of the "very definite struggle: referred to -- for hitler was to purge this wing and make himself more acceptable to orthodox conservatives and business leaders (gregor strasser was murdered in the NofLK) (his brother otto -- arguably more the architect of this line of thinking? -- was more ambivalent abt the party, only joining in 1925 and expelled in 1930, it which point he fled germany for czechoslovakia)

this fragment of US analysis does more or less channel the (wildly mistaken) position that von papen and von hindenberg took in 1933, that they would be the puppetmasters controlling hitler

*(both wings were of course committed to mystical nationalism and anti-semitism; and both wings were violent, too; i suppose you could argue the hitlerite wing was more treacherously effective in this instance, but i don't see that that lets strasserism off the hook)
