We have Wehraboos reviewing books on Amazon and mass down-voting anything which disagrees with their Weltanschauung (world view). They genuinely believe that the Wehrmacht was "clean" and was the greatest fighting force ever in world history. Well, they're wrong.
History Romancers are a big issue, so today I tackle some of them. Romancers are people who have a fantastical or romantic view of certain periods of history. They either worship the Wehrmacht (Wehraboos), excuse the crimes of Socialism (Marxist Socialists or National Socialists), or even deny that certain historical events took place (Denialists). Their ignorance, dismissal or distortion of evidence, logical fallacies and downright hostility to the truth leads them to false conclusions and to the political extreme. Let's give them a history lesson. #wehraboos #Romancers
Videos EVERY Monday at 5pm GMT (depending on season, check for British Summer Time).
NOTE: Due to technical issues related to Bandicam, I had to use Sony Vegas Pro to edit this video, and Vegas has a massive issue with text scrolling in videos as I discovered to my horror... So I was unable to put Patron names in this video. This is a one-off issue, so your names will appear in future videos.
