«The new Nazi party headquarters opened in March 1931 [...] Hitler’s office was in a large room in the corner of the first floor. In addition to a BUST OF MUSSOLINI and a portrait of Friedrich the Great, it contained a painting depicting an attack by the List Regiment in Flanders.» 𝐕𝐨𝐥𝐤𝐞𝐫 𝐔𝐥𝐥𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐡 Hitler: Ascent 1889-1939 @paganfascism2

“...that would be horrible to me, I wouldn't want to have lived my whole life if one day I had to sit there like a Buddha!” — Adolf Hitler, Monologue on October 14, 1941, in Monologe im Führerhauptquartier 1941–1944 @paganfascism2

«While blacks and others were often caught in the crossfire, Hitler’s first racial laws were directed only against Jews. In October 1935, therefore, Bormann let it be known that ‘the Führer does not wish’ that black people from the former German colonies living in the Reich, ‘most of whom had fought for Germany’, should be hindered in their attempts ‘to find work and bread’, or indeed ‘harassed in any other way’.For all the hardship blacks suffered under National Socialism, the contrast with the treatment of the Jews is striking. There was never any systematic internment of blacks in Nazi Germany. The antithesis to the ‘Aryan’ or ‘German’ body was not the black body, but the ‘Jewish’ body.» — Brendan Simms Hitler: only the world was enough @paganfascism

«What lay at the heart of the settlement of the east Himmler had summed up succinctly in the summer of 1942 as the maxim of the ‘ethno-political monthly’ Deutsche Arbeit (‘German Work’) in the words: ‘Our task does not consist in Germanizing the east in the traditional sense, that means by teaching the German language and German laws to the people who live there, but rather to ensure that 𝗢𝗡𝗟𝗬 people of actual German and Germanic blood live there.’» — Peter Longerich Heinrich Himmler: A Life @paganfascism

«Strong criticism of the Wehrmacht was also coming from internal German sources. On 25 May, plenipotentiary Altenburg warned Berlin in alarm of the 'catastrophic supply situation' in Greece, and advised that the army should be bringing food into the country rather than taking it out. He was backed up by an Abwehr report which drew an unflattering contrast between the British, WHO HAD DISTRIBUTED FOOD STOCKS TO THE GREEKS BEFORE THEIR RETREAT, THE ITALIANS, WHO WERE APPARENTLY DISTRIBUTING PASTA AND OIL, AND THE WEHRMACHT WHICH WAS BUSY CONFISCATING ALL MEANS OF TRANSPORT AS WELL AS FOOD. 'Because German troops had to keep themselves alive off the land during their rapid march into the country,' the report concluded, 'They should use [their reserves] to compensate the inhabitants.'» — Mark Mazower Inside Hitler's Greece @paganfascism2

«Did Hitler regard Nazism as a religion? This is easier to decipher, since he explicitly answered this question more than once. In Mein Kampf, he explicitly rejected the idea that he should become a religious reformer, insisting that Nazism was a political, NOT A RELIGIOUS MOVEMENT. In fact, throughout his career, Hitler urged neutrality on purely religious questions, and he tolerated a variety of views about religion within the Nazi Party. Some leading Nazis considered themselves Christians [...] In October 1941, in the midst of a diatribe against the Christian churches, HITLER ADMITTED THAT NAZISM COULD NEVER BE A COMPLETE SUBSTITUTE FOR RELIGION BECAUSE IT DID NOT OFFER ANYONE A COHERENT POSITION ON METAPHYSICS. Thus he counseled toleration for those who had a heartfelt desire for religion. He remarked that someone feeling a need for metaphysics cannot simply be handed the Party Program» — Richard Weikart, Hitler's Religion @paganfascism2

«And then the Führer. In a unique speech [...] Justification of Charlemagne. AGAINST NEW FOUNDERS OF RELIGION. [...] THE FÜHRER IS PASSIONATELY OPPOSED TO PLAYING THE ROLE OF FOUNDER OF RELIGION. He does not want to become a priest later. He is only and exclusively a politician.» — Joseph Goebbels Tagebücher 1924 -1945, Herausgegeben von Ralf Georg Reuth p.1362; p.892 @paganfascism2
