Jaysus.....I'm just shakin' my head after reading that...where do you even start.......?
Super successful people seemingly HAVE to be a cock of some fashion or other.
You can see why he worked so well with the son of Britain's greatest pre-war fascist after a comment like that.
If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?
Thing is, you have to get through the reflexive hand-wringing that any mention of Hitler gets...
He's right. Hitler got things done. Most people might object to what the did, but he certainly got it done.
Yes, but there's the risk that by recoiling in horror, we don't look and learn from the mistakes of history.
Just going "OhMyGod it's so terrible" doesn't count as learning btw...![]()
In one way he is, of course, right. Things do get done when you have a totalitarian regime. The question is whether it's the right things that get done and if the fact that things get done is worth the price of diminished civil liberties.
A dictatorship would work just fine, if you could find the perfect person - benign, compassionate, intelligent, assertive, etc but completely devoid of desire for personal gain. Doesn't sound like any person I've ever met or heard off - but maybe if we ever develop proper AI...

A dictatorship is the second most effective form of government. Provided the dictator is smart, and not too wacky, it can work very well. Unfortunately, most tend to be corrupted by the power, or have personality disorders to start with.
... and that's what I think.
Or summat.
Or maybe not...
Dunno really....![]()
He just stated the obvious really, irrespective of the very unpalatable things Hitler did. He was ( in a perverse sort of way ) right about Saddam Hussein too, the only guy that could keep that basket case of a country together.
Bernie is old enough and wealthy enough that he can take the rebound. The same for Max Mosley, 70 years old and wealthy enough to employ a few hookers in nazi regalia. Lucky man, and he has worked for it!
Personally I dont Bernie is a cock for one moment. Hes a very successful man whose machine employs a LOT of people. I applaud him for that and I also applaud him for being totally un PC.
Id be interested in his views on Slobodan Milosevic, there are schools of thought that he was actually doing the world a favour in eradicating moslems.

Hey, kids! Captain Hero here with Getting Laid Tip 213 - The Backrub Buddy!
Find a chick who’s just been dumped and comfort her by massaging her shoulders, and soon, she’ll be massaging your prostate.
He is, yeah.
You have to realise there is a very specific and rare personality type at work here though. Genuine sociopaths. Very very smart people who honestly feel not one drop of compassion towards the rest of the species. We are just there to be played with, manipulated, and used towards aims as dispassionately as one might enjoy squirting crap off the house with a pressure jet.
These people are, unsurprisingly, often very successful. Bernie Ecclestone owns the most expensive sport in the world. Owns it, the actual sport itself. Fuck me. Hitler took a country that had the been having the living shit kicked out of it for twenty years and persuaded it's inhabitants that they should take the world by force. They nearly did too. They are the same personality type and they tend to achieve greatness or almost literally die trying (and piss a whole bunch of people off in the process).
I've met one, and maybe now a second who I've not decided about yet. They're out there and they scare the crap out of me.
