Mein Kampf - it's borderline unreadable.
So you're saying reading it is a struggle?
Haha, yes. And I gave up half way through. Early part about his past in Vienna was coherent, the rest was not
It's such a terrible book, not just because of… you know, Nazis, but because it's atrociously badly written. Rambling and fueled by completely blind hate, and it sets out a vision that's completely detached from reality.
Really gave me similar vibes as listening to Trump talk, a sort of utter disbelief that people actually think he had something worthwhile to say
Exactly. No sane person would ever take it seriously. His logic is so broken that it's painful to read
A bold statement...
Why?
I was joking. Because saying "ya know, I just didn't care for that book that Adolf Hitler wrote" is just like, well yeah....
Saying Mein Kampf is borderline unreadable is bold?
Sarcasm doesn't work well over the Internet, that's my bad.
My point was that saying Mein Kampf is borderline unreadable, isn't exactly stepping out on a limb or anything...
I'll bet Satan's Truth Social feed is pretty hard to read too.
But some fascists do manage to be pretty coherent. It's just that clearly Hitler wasn't one of them.
