Nazis are bad

All the wrong people seem to like it so it's probably bad.

it's old as fuck and was written by a journalist who even in the 60s was criticized for not being up on current scholarship, so it's probably meh but I'm not going to read it

Very biased. I was disappointed to find out how good of a goy Shirer is, editorializing his "history" with the intent of humiliating Hitler's memory and making a farce of the Third Reich. I've heard David Irving's material is much more objective but unfortunately it's difficult to get a personal copy of his work.

the butthurt this book gets is the same butthurt howard zinn's people US history gets. they don't take a centrist approach to history by not saying the nazis or capitalist class are objectively the bad guys. unless you're a liberal or centrist, you won't have a problem with it OP

>the intent of humiliating Hitler's memory and making a farce of the Third Reich.

They did that themselves.

>HITLER BAD

holy FUCK someone get this man an award already, utterly groundbreaking take

>. I've heard David Irving's material is much more objective
Where did you hear that? Irving's considered a nutter by essiently all historians today on National Socialist Germany.

typical nihilistic edgelord neo-nazi thinking the more unpopular a take is the better
