The God Behind Hitler's National Socialism

It is obvious that National Socialism is a religion, but the exact God that Hitler worshipped has not been confirmed. Some think he was a Christian, a Buddhist, or even an Atheist... but it turns out that all we had to do was go back and read the 'first' book written by a National Socialist (Rudolf Jung) to confirm exactly which God was Hitler's God.

I'm NOT a National Socialist, Fascist, or anything else. This video is discussing events or concepts that are academic, educational and historical in nature. This video is for informational purposes and was created so we may better understand the past and learn from the mistakes others have made.

ABOUT TIK 📝

History isn’t as boring as some people think, and my goal is to get people talking about it. I also want to dispel the myths and distortions that ruin our perception of the past by asking a simple question - “But is this really the case?”. I have a 2:1 Degree in History and a passion for early 20th Century conflicts (mainly WW2). I’m therefore approaching this like I would an academic essay. Lots of sources, quotes, references and so on. Only the truth will do.

TIK, you’ve gone from Close Combat III let’s plays, to history, to economics, to politics, and now to theology- it’s been quite entertaining at every stage!

"War is father of all, war is king of all. He makes some gods, others men. He makes some slaves, others free."

The reason Karl Jung knew this is because he actually got to speak to Hitler and Mussolini personally, he got a feel for their character and tried to psychoanalyze who they were as leaders. That's how he came to the conclusion that Hitler fulfilled the archetype of a High Priest, and more specifically that Hitler was the High Priest of Wotan.

Tik in the course of 5-6 years went from "Hitler was loosely Christian" to "Hitler was Pegan" to "Hitler believed in the Marxian mythology" back to "Hitler was a Norse Pegan"

I think this is the reason it was so powerful because it wasn't just a political movement, it tapped into a deep spiritual reservoir that was just bursting to get out of the German people

[christiansilva]

I truly appreciate how thorough you are and how you cite your work. Other history channels don’t even mention where they get an idea and sometimes I think they just make it up.

My dad believes in this stuff too, so Odin wasnt really much a shock to me.

Whenever he spoke of hitler saying something, or we talked about his speeches, he always made it a point to mention that 'whenever hitler talks about god or the almighty, it is never the christian god. always odin'.

A couple of problems with this.
1. Odin was not a God of war, conflict or death, he was a God of divine wisdom. Tyr was the Norse God of war and Hel was the Norse God of death.
2. The swastika was not Odin's symbol. It is a protective rune that was not inherently associated with Odin.
3. The Norse did not believe in world ice theory. They saw the world as one of 9 realms that were situated in the world tree.
4. Hitler always refers to God in the singular where Norse Pagans believe in multiple Gods and refer to them as “The Gods”. The fact Hitler never references multiple Gods or indicates that he believes in or worships multiple Gods is proof that he was not a Norse Pagan.

I've been reading A.H.'s book and he mentions several times about how he wanted to keep Volkisch role players out of the movement, commenting negatively about men, 'sporting flowing beards amd indulging in ancient German gestures', and that those with true Volkisch beliefs were of the National Socilaist movement and that the other German Parties only began adopting the Volkisch language and ideas because they were becoming popular, "Our party above all, by the success of its propaganda, has shown the force of the folk idea; so much so that the others, in an effort to gain proselytes, find themselves forced to copy our example, at least in words".

Nazi-Germany was like the Roman empire, it allowed a 'pantheon' of gods, as long as the emperor and the state were the 'upper god'.

People responding in the first 3 minutes an 40minute is posted online, definitely have nothing to say about the video itself 😔

Evola was not a neo-Nazi, he was not even a Nazi in the first place. He wrote a book in which he criticizes the Third Reich and fascism (criticism of fascism from the right). Ebola was a traditionalist and he was indeed a pagan but saw the idea of ​​a "master race" as a spiritual concept and not a physical one. He criticized the primitive racism of the Nazis with the measurement of noses and skulls.

You can tell Lovecraft and Hitler were reading the same books.
