Hitler was, and what he envisioned was beneficial for the German people after so long of being stepped on and punished for a war that they didn't even start. Though of course this lead them to starting a worse war and killing millions...then again Communism did worse than that and people still support it so...people are kind of dumb.

    I’m from Myanmar. The military seized control of our country since Feb 1, detained our leaders, killed and arrested many, many innocent students and citizens. But, we will never ever give up. We will fight for our country and federal democracy. This song gives me a lot of energy to start my day. I will fight for my country till I die. We fight and we will win.

      The leaders you defend and describe them as democracy are the ones who practiced discrimination and terror against a sect of your people just because they are Muslim. They subjected me to the worst imaginable torture, abuse and displacement from their country, and the rest of the people did not speak from other sects only because of the difference in religion. It is natural if a segment of the people is oppressed and the rest remain silent, then the state becomes tyrannical The strong in it eat the weak, so they taste from the same cup of injustice

    Can we take a moment to admire how beautifully written these lyrics are? The way the words flowed together is nothing less than impressive all while conveying a lasting message that truly reflected those who were singing it. The only drawback is that the song is fairly short, but I can’t think of any songs that could top this one.

    Honestly, "The blood of the martyrs will water the meadows of France!" is honestly my favorite line in this song. Just the fact that it implies that every single person who died for the revolution will not be in vain and that their death had meaning to their cause. Even if they die and will not see the life and freedom they envisioned, the revolution, and by extension France, the country they love and fight for, and for the people they fight alongside with, will one day bloom and thrive from the soil their blood had nourished.

    I was an usher at a friend''s wedding. All the members of the wedding party did a flash-mob kinda thing with this exact version. The DJ was able to play a music-only version of this and gave us a few cordless mics. We started off scattered around the room and we all started singing, eventually coming together in front of the dais, facing everybody. They put the lyrics up on a screen behind us, karaoke style, and all the guests at the wedding stood up and we all sang together. One of the coolest things I've ever been a part of. To this day, 25 years later, I still get goosebumps thinking about it..

      Yes, somehow nearly all proper news outlets got the information we had sung the anthem of France instead of this song.
      Thing is we were initially planning on singing that, but in the end there weren't quite enough of students with us who studied the language itself.
      And since the entire uni knows English pretty well, we decided to go with this as an alternative, which is just as fitting and powerful imo.

    I know few will see this but as an American my people need learn form this song they are trying to divide us, they want us to be in fear of each other, but we must stand together, brother with brother, sister with sister, I don't care who you are but we need to meet on neutral ground and fight the ones who are dividing us more everyday. We will reunite the country as one. No more hatred across the masses, we need to stop the greater powers above us so we can truly call ourselves The UNITED States of America

    Is there, perhaps, a particular reason why CZcams recommended this to me today (7th November 2020)?

      @@user-pq5hs4yx5h There's a long history of Hong Kong citizens who have criticised the Chinese government being kidnapped and imprisoned in China with no charge and sometimes dying under mysterious circumstances, now the HK government want to legalise this to help China persecute those who criticise China
