Manipulation of Germanic history? -One does not come to adopt or steal symbols overnight; one comes to embody them. Once you understand this, everything changes.
100%, I am sick of hearing the phrase, "The Nazis stole this symbol". So under the same pretence, any symbols or history adopted and embraced by any group of people can be said to be stolen. Its simply completely biased anti-NSDAP propaganda.
@M1945 And which government hasn't done the very same? I expect you'll be making videos about the American manipulation of history, or the British, French, Soviet etc etc...
@@cruthinulad2637 I agree with you. This isn't about harping on about supposed German "Blutschuld" but rather looking at primary historical sources related to the progression of German militarism until the end of the war and hopefully getting some interesting conversations started.
bingo! the most evil book ever written. Jesus went after the Talmudic Pharisees..and got tortured for it until death. Jesus was NOT religious. He tried to take down the evil Rabbis and taxation money changers.
Man as others have said, you know I don’t necessarily agree with all viewpoints and such, but the sources to bring to the public and what you do here is invaluable. Please never stop, i genuinely love watching your videos
Thank you for your comment. I try not to have too many opinions, to show the original materials and let them speak for themselves. This makes me pretty unpopular with just about everyone.
@ ahhh don’t worry too much about it. People who genuinely care about your content will look past personal opinions. We should be able to enjoy such invaluable information and material and put our own opinions aside. As I said, I don’t necessarily agree with everything, but I still watch your videos bc they’re a well of knowledge and sources that we would otherwise never have the privilege of seeing/reading
Great stuff as usual. Honestly I have yet to find a single dud in anything you have posted. Watch lots of WW2 stuff on the tube and nobody has content like you. Its like having a time machine. Also the way you present without any narrative only context to what we are seeing is very rare on others videos. Thank you. I will continue to promote your channel on the other videos I watch as someone once said to me "its worth it" Thanks again.
Thirty-two years ago, in Ninety-Nintety-Two, I made a trip in northern England, seeing some medieval churches. In one church I saw with my own eyes a SAWSTIKA encarved over an arc. The shape of that swastika looked EXACTLY like the one which was officially used in Germany, from 1933 till 1945.
Because that symbol is ancient and all around the world you'll see them in places like India Japan and lots of Asian countries plus some European countries as well the Nazis simply reused an already ancient symbol because of how widespread it is and it would be easy for someone to remember seeing that and recognize it ,we still see that nowadays 80-90 years later
@@MorganOlson-i1j No, you did not get my point. I said EXACTLY, and I mean what I say. Nowadays people claim the "real" swastika would have been "different" from the one used in Germany, it was allegedly turning into the opposite direction, it was not standing but lying and blablabla.
cool seeing the excavation of the Germanic house and explain how it was built, this made for a very interesting video....I did not find this was too long
For hobby historians such as myself, your channel is a refreshing oasis. I know how much time, effort and expense is required to bring private collection and obscure archival material to the public. I know it’s a labor of love my brother, and I for one, love the fact that you bring this material to us.
Little known NS factoid: The center of the Sun Wheel and Hakenkreuz is the "umbo" and is symbolic of the Great Cycle of Being where the soul goes while waiting to be reborn. AH said so in Table Talk. 😮
As Germanic/Nordic person, this kinds of history is very surprises me and feels honor of our race. Please post more Waffen SS myths, Germanic mythology pls🙏🏻
Manipulation is the wrong choice of wording and reveals a common pitfall in contemporary historiography that approaches everything from a purely materialistic perspective. These ancient Germanic myths were revived and adapted to modern needs in order to bestow a “spiritual life” and pageantry to the German people, which was seen as lacking at the time. People are beginning to understand these nuances behind WW2 and this isn’t a good look for your channel.
First off thanks for the comment, really. Everything you say I agree with. It is the nuances behind WW2 that I try to shed light on when introducing primary historical sources. I do add limited background information to add context but do my best to stay away from simplified propagandistic narratives. Do you personally believe that the reintroduction of pageantry and a more spiritual life to the German population was not manipulated by the National Socialists for their own political purposes? Himmler's speech to the archeologists at the end of this short touches on this question directly. Did this tendency not lead the nation to its ultimate destruction? I'm not adding some kind of moral justification for the destruction, just a cause and effect association. I hope that I can continue touching on the nuances that you mention and am not too worried about whether it's "a good look" for my channel. I am not interested in taking sides, there are no sides that matter.
The Futhark Was So much more than just a way of Writing and Communicating There were Spiritual Meanings too ! As usual Frederick you post some interesting Videos Cheers Pal
Thanks for making & sharing these, your work is valuable to anyone with a sense of historical curiosity. Imagine their worth of these in another 100 years. Thanks
Yes, I agree. This is why it's important to see primary historical sources and think about it all yourself. Doesnt mean that you come up with other conclusions but at least your eyes are open
Hitler himself looked to the Greek and especially Roman empires for inspiration and made fun of Himmler's and Rosenberg's obsession with Norse myths. All were way off the mark in their histories.
I agree up until your last sentence. Recent advances in linguistics, genetics, and archeology have validated the 19th century idea that Indo Europeans come from a common source population, originating in the East (steppes). Some of the historical views of some nazis have been proven correct, obviously not all of them as some were really out there.
Why would I do that? I'm a native English speaker and have a reasonably good voice. I use FCPX and sometimes cut out the breathing sound, do you think that might be what makes it sound unnatural? Look at my old videos man, it's me. Why would someone lie about something so stupid???
I read a good book on the SS branch Ahnenerbe. A strange set up which included some very academic people who were virtually told to reinterpret history and eugenics. Needless to say it went down some very sinister routes.
Pepop loved his armbands almost as much as them ol' Aryian Artifacts i tell ya what.Hehe yep that ol' windmill of friendship keeps turnin', probably got 916 jahre more.

@@M1945 In what way did they "appropriate" the sig rune, odal rune, swastika, etc.? Those symbols ARE their heritage, it does belong to them, they were the continuation of the history from which those symbols came. Who else had the right to use those symbols? Should they have been treated as dead artifacts, lost to time, never allowed to be used again? In what way does a Germanic leader's use of Germanic symbols constitute "appropriation"? Your argument is a moral one.
@@SolunarsFace Yes, it is a moral argument. The problem is that the NSDAP had no right to claim to be the sole legitimate heirs to everything "German". Sure through force of arms they were able to occupy Austria and so claim Mozart, Schubert, Strauss etc as their own. Germany after WW1 was a pristine example of high culture (most cultured in the world?) which had a lot to do with the native jewish population. When a president uses force against the will of the people he loses all legitimacy. Germany was and is far greater than the National Socialst Party. They did everything in their power to make it one and the same but failed. Might does not make right.
@@SolunarsFace To answer you question more directly, they appropriated it by claiming sole right to associate themselves with it. It was a perversion of history. They were no more German than jewish soldiers that had fought for Germany in WW1

Honestly, these German archeologists seem no less professional than their counterparts from the UK around that time. Regarding technique.
Interesting. I have a feeling much of it was staged, for example the pottery with the swastika didn't happen to come from this dig...
Aha....and the trip to Tibet to look for 'origins". Nutters
Quick comment so the YT algorithm knows that I love this channel and I want more videos like this in my recommendations ❤❤❤❤
Imagine how truth would be today had the outcome of the war been different. Now ask yourself what is really the truth about anything.

hi, @5:02 you misidentified a SIG Rune not the Sun Wheel. chances are I'm wrong so if I am please let me know,
That was translated directly from the Rune book. It was called the "junge" Sun rune
@@M1945 i see, thank you.
Sieg and Sonne both start with "S"? Interesting, I never knew the rune also stood for the sun, always just saw it as a lightning bolt.

@BaltimoresBerzerker I wouldn't doubt that. Im not saying that all science during the 3rd Reich is bunk. That would be stupid, look at the V-2
They found the swastik during the excavation of Troy
You really do need to get rid of those sub titles.
You mean the English ones?
@M1945 yes they're worse than useless.
Great footage 🍻
They were Buddhists 😮
Himmler believed that he was the reincarnation of Armin (Hermann) the leader who defeated the Romans in 9 AD ....
