this book is hilarious in that it has a detailed description of the JFK assassination with a sequence of events, names, and motives. down to building owners and stuff. he was assassinated shortly after by a man who at some point before was rejected from the party for trying to spread communist ideology in it. that man served I think only 13 years in prison for the assassination.

Mein kampf of course

For economics:
>Hitler's National Socialism - Rainer Zitelmann for economics
Feder is also fine but that's more the general ideal to strive for while Zitelmann's book is more of a whole bunch of quotes from Hitler to reconstruct a large part of his worldview.

For Ideology:
>National Socialism: Its Principles and Philosophy - Carlos Videla
>The law of blood: thinking and acting as a nazi - Johann Chapoutot

Other than that just read in the area that seems personally interesting to you. You can focus more or less on the war, Jews, economics etc as long as you know the core. Pretty important is knowing what they mean when they talk about life laws/natural laws. Something you come across fairly often and really makes up the core of the ideology but barely any book really explains or even acknowledges it much. desu some of the books I posted are pretty bad as well like Griffin (theories on ''generic fasicsm'' are barely worth getting into) and Mosse so try and stick (or even find but that can be pretty hard) to primary sources

>> No.22328478

I was very fond of the ford translation. there is a very good audio reading of it on archive that I also recommend. I also wouldn't conclude that you don't hold any of the same beliefs as hitler until you've listened to the mans own words. they don't teach you about hitler by showing you his speeches and primary sources. what you are taught is a narrative to justify flattening all of europes cities to rubble and forcing them to adopt the USD as a reserve currency, among other motives.

>>22328409
This is how I listened to the audiobook of Mein Kampf. Quibbling over translations isn't THAT important. Reading an older version like the Ford translation is fine. Just remember if the translation uses the word "kike", it's subverted. Hitler didn't actually use slurs like that. But even the gay translations are better than not reading it at all. Just listen/read with an open mind. You may be surprised. I think that 90% of people would agree with 90% of Mein Kampf, if presented without the context that Hitler wrote it. The only really controversial parts of the books of the (rational) anti-semitism and the focus on importance of biological race.

To add to this, it's clear that the modern European states and the United States are set up specifically to prevent race-based national socialism from being possible. The material and social conditions imposed on the population by the elites are totally opposed to the values that Hitler espouses in his ideal race-based national socialist state:

1. Dilute the racial stock at all costs by using wildly unpopular mass immigration which has never been put to a public vote (this also helps to break down the working class by driving down wages)
2. Turn the military gay as fuck and useless
3. Make people fat and physically unfit (and let dog shit poison food be sold to people. This isn't as bad in Europe. America has some of the worst food widely available on Earth)
4. Keep people employed at the lowest prices possible and save retirement accounts for boomers and social security at all costs (keep boomers and market Jews happy).
5. Keep people from forming families or being invested in the future
6. Don't let people starve
7. Annihilate attention spans with constant distracting media (can you imagine an auto worker at the end of the day of work going to a meeting hall to stand in a packed crowd and listen to a guy talk for literally hours straight)
8. Make consumer debt as freely available as possible to both drive up prices by exploiting the high time preference of the average idiot (kept stupid by shit food, education, and lack of exercise) and to keep as many people as stupid debt slaves as possible.

there is a huge disconnect between corporations free to pursue profit and the wants and needs of the populace at large. pharma is incentivized to make as much money as possible, that leads to very bad things all over the place. the military industrial complex is incentivized to make as much money as possible, that leads to very bad problems all over the world. scientists are incentivized to make as much money as possible, that leads to a massive reproducibility crisis. insurance and lending is baked into our social and legal structure and is reimbursed and protected financially by the government. everything is corrupt to the core.
