      @RoastWorthy Technically they didn't really win any elections though, they did get a fairly high vote count but it was far short of a complete win. But they also had a few hundred thousand strong militia and the Germany political system was breaking down and some kind of autocracy was probably going to happen. It being a bit of a question if the Nazi, the conservative nationalist or communists would win.
      Well the conservatives thought they could use the Nazi against the communists, but in the end they were wrong and Nazi managed a coup d'etat taking all power for themselves.
      Though in some more modern cases the autocratic government basically did win a election and just pulled more and more power to themselves over time. So it's still a very real threat to a democracy. It's just not the way the Nazi took power, where the lesson in part is, don't let major political parties have their own private militia/army.

    • @Quickshot0
      @Quickshot0 3 года назад +1

      @RoastWorthy Of course the Nazi are to blame, they did a coup d'etat. That's a super hostile action that's completely deliberate on their side.
      The conservatives were just trying to do their best with a really bad hand as if they didn't compromise with one of both sides it probably would be a civil war. This due to Germany being limited to a 100k army that would not easily be able to put down several 100k militia. In hindsight the conservatives seem to have decided that maybe they should have chosen the civil war rather then think they could some how keep some kind of moderating control on one of the two radical factions.
      In any case, my main point was more the Nazi didn't gain power by winning an election, they did a hostile take over by force.

    • @notlisztening9821
      @notlisztening9821 5 месяцев назад

      here's another nugget of info, the poster forgot to mention: a direct consequence of the green deal is the deindustrialization of the nations and expropriation of its citizens. Changing energy consumption and production should be done by investing in new technologies and maybe subsidizing them where it is reasonable to do so.
      Instead this is mostly done by requiring companies to pay a sort of fine in the form of "CO2-taxes". So those that emit more than allocated to them, have to buy certificates similar to how you buy stocks. Every year the total supply of available certificates is reduced, so when they initially cost ~5€ per ton of CO2, they now cost 100€.
      So what does any reasonable company do? They leave the EU and take their jobs and taxes with them. Those companies that stay obviously have to raise prices to stay competitive, so this is a direct cause of the rampant inflation and so the citizens pay for this CO2 tax.
      The eu is led by incompetence and ideology and is regularly overstepping its boundaries on national governance and needs to be completely reformed.
      The only valid purpose the eu has, is to protect it's borders and that's the one issue they completely failed with.

    Nuclear energy produced 50% of Europe's clean electricity in 2017. Most studies on a low carbon Europe predict that nuclear will be about 30% of the European energy mix in the most cost optimal scenario.

    The Netherlands received billions in profit from its gas fields. Gas is connected to every Dutch home. For a number of years, the Netherlands has closed its own gas fields and is now importing gas from Norway and Russia. While gas is being promoted in Germany, Dutch homes are being forced to switch to electricity. This costs almost € 10,000 per home! The new houses no longer have a gas connection.

      this is categorically not true, in fact the opposite is the case.
      higher carbon emissions per person are directly related to higher quality of life, including literacy, education, lower mortality, higher income per capita, and so on. on average, the more greenhouse gases a country produces, the more developed that nation and its peoples are.
      its a moral dilemma because modernization takes a massive environmental toll. developing nations want to modernize yet already developed nations want to put ecological restrictions in place that the entire world adheres to.
      essentially, green initiatives serve as barriers to developing nations. its not as simple as “build more dams” or “use solar.” developing as a nation requires a massive carbon footprint.

      One thing I've learned is most Climate Change policy isn't meant to control the climate, but the people. Thr whole point is to give government more power and money while the politicians funnel huge sums of money to their donors who invest in a lot of these "Green Companies". That's why they have to treat Climate Change as a crisis instead of just another challenge. A crisis demands immediate action without time for the public to review, or question the proposals. It's also why they won't go the sensible route and invest in Nuclear energy. That means far less opportunities to seize power and money.

    Really great for you, even you are a dutch, but waited 4 minutes 51 seconds to mention the favourite theme of dutchs: the differenciating between rich West and poor East. This is a kind of psychological fixation to all dutch, quoting wrongly geographic names: "Eastern EU" is correct, but not "Eastern Europe", because Central Europe is not Eastern Europe. And of course "rich" / "poor" also very simplyfiyng, and false, and very easily misleading, if you know, that compare to the whole world these central european (but eastern EU) countries are on between the highest development index countries of the world, so mentioning them as "poor" giving a very bad sense of reality from your perspective, if we know on the world level 80% of the population are poorer than these so called "poors".
    But of course, for a dutch it should be really remarkable again to feel yourself as someone, who legitimized his existence, between the real great countries surrounding you (Germany, UK, France) who always opress you, small Netherland, but now you should feel yourelf somebody compare to these "poor eastern" guys.
