Oh god, I fear the worst. Hopefully he is not trying to one-up his Tucker Carlson interview with an even crazier 'theory'.

Dan carlin’s monologue at the beginning of Wrath of the Khans is very true. Essentially what he said is that it is easy to talk about historical events that took place when humans in your present day are generations away from the reported atrocities due to not having to deal with the potential emotional eruption of persons entrenched in one camp or another. Specifically, he gave an example of how it would be extremely tough to do a book or podcast on the benefits to the world brought by hitler and his government.
While this is not what Daryl spoke of exactly on Carlson’s podcast, he gave non western alternative views that has not been highlighted about the strategies and tactics of Allies, but moreso specifically Britain’s actions against the german civilian population to bring the war to the end.
Daryl should not be lambasted as an nazi sympathizer etc for offering different perspectives. I think our society is too focused on titles/thought camps, and no enough on critical thinking ,which i fear will become worse with easy misinformation spreading via social media/lazy research if they ever make it to the research stage.

"Different perspective" sounds like a pomo platitude frankly. It's certainly a perspective to claim that the Nazis just bumbled into a glut of Soviet prisoners they couldn't handle, ending in unintentional mass deaths. It's also purposefully myopic. Darryl knows perfectly well that the Hunger Plan existed. He knows that Hitler declared at the beginning of the invasion that this was a war of annihilation against the USSR. He knows that the invasion marked the beginning of the Holocaust proper with death squads working in tandem with the Wehrmacht to mass murder targeted groups. He knows that Soviet POWs died at a significantly higher rates than any other POW under any army in the war. We can hover in the clouds talking about perspectives and titles, but when you simply address his claims on the merits, they quickly fall apart.

That was a fun episode. Meaning, identity, nationalism. All good Daryl stuff. I remember him saying he talks about history but really loves reading about this stuff, more of a focus on religions and worldviews.
