❤❤great lecture..we wait another lecture
I've listened to bloodlines audio book. Interesting to listen now to the author.
Watch the soviet story
not "bloodlines" but "bloodlands".
EXCELLENT EXCELLENT !!!!
1:00:44 power of the paper pushing diplomat
23 mins in ....am amazed
So much for the literacy, intellect & sophistication of the Germans. All exploded in unsurpassed killing techniques unique in history.
Makes total sense. There was no “state” where the United States “holocausted” the Native Americans.
Native Americans hadn't got any right because they weren't considered as "citizens of the U.S.A." and most of the elected politicians, government didn't recognize "Native Americans" right, so holocaust could be pursued.
@@mireillelebeau2513 thanks for making Professor’s point (and mine) again. There was no “state”. States confer citizenship.
Just like when Mexico "holocausted" its native people. Moron
@UCjRy_JQkTlGyVFsfULeWbHQ your a dumb one ain't ya?
@@Baczkowa78 President Trump once made the point that "We weren't in a hurry to give the natives citizenship. We waited about a hundred years." (Loosely paraphrased.)
1:01:30 such the worse for us.
It seems to me that American ultraconservatives tend to wax nostalgic about the 1890s (life before the Progressive Era).
19.00 Why was the poem in English???
It is called translation.
It is called "the audience cannot understand Hungarian"
The Maxim genocide gun, that is when war no longer having any shred of fairness became accepted. A gas chamber is still a gas chamber, if one needs wordplay to aid memory formation.
I thought the talk was about the Armenian genocide??
Bloodlands. Incisive. See also Raul Hilberg Destruction of the European Jews.
How did the blasphemous act of texting while Snyder was talking? Shame on him!
13:24: Timothy Snyder begins
When the allies stormed France, in 1942, German soldiers were wondering when the Allies' horses would appear. The general belief is that the allies were not going to be able to go deep into fatherland Europe. When American aviators started throwing rockets with phosphorous over German defenses, they understood this was not a horses war anymore.
BTW, in the US most people don't know that a great majority of Europeans saw the Germans as protectors of Europe, as in fact Germans soldiers saw themselves.
Great video.
There are plenty of sources on how German soldiers experienced the invasion.
How does TS classify Israel? A nation state that behaves like an empire?
Invisible boogie man.
d9? :)
Is this Jewish people only lecture?
He almost sounds like an apologist.
How pray tell?
What?
I have listened to a few of Professor Snyder's talks on CZcams. I think his analysis of past events is extremely interesting, however, the minute he starts equating past events to the current US administration and policy he starts to drift off into loony land. Someone who could equate current policy to 1930s Germany is stretching to the point of foolishness. But what I always wonder is if he is concerned with the ever increasing efforts of students & faculty to prevent and harass speakers on campus for which some are opposed? Is he concerned with governments in Europe arresting people over their speech because someone deems it to be "hate speech" or politically incorrect. Now these circumstances worry me more. I hope he is speaking out on this?
I learned that Snyder & Masha Green have a view on behavior of tyrants that we don’t and how they rise. Both predicted Trump’s win.
I imagine he has many concerns on speech issues and other challenges, however, I can also imagine he may stay with his area of expertise, which is not limited to speech.
You make a valid point but I wouldn’t go to him to study that aspect. There are however many who do speak eloquently on that like Gad Sadd, Douglas Murray and Jordan Peterson for openers.
@@robertmoffat5149 yes, great examples.
@@gb4375 Specifically Douglas Murray's book The Madness Of Crowds speaks to that issue directly.
people are scared to criticize WW2 Holocaust, something that on a certain level is a normal human behaviour and is by no means unique.
You are so full of crap! WW2 and its various subsets of mass murder was unprecedented in scope and scale. Nothing normal about about it! What is wrong with you?
@@HotPinkst17 On a certain level, as the commenter said, it is absolutely normal human behavior. The holocaust is certainly the worst mass killing to ever take place, but to say it is unique invalidates millions and millions of people and communities that have been wiped out for similar reasons. And this idea of “never again” is delusional in regards to how many genocides have taken place since ww2. The holocaust is immensely tragic and important, but humans have been slaughtering each other for thousands of years at this point. That is important to understanding how this even happens.
@@thereisnocarolinHR Of course, agreed. What happened in the USSR between the Russian civil war and WW2 for instance was more destructive in terms of monstrous culture and loss of life than the holocaust, but Neil Brown's comment rhymed too much with holocaust deniers for my taste. While it may be unrealistic to think genocide will no longer be possible, we can inoculate against it somewhat by educating people about the conditions and steps that previously led to them. When we see the patterns we can stand up and do something before it is too late.
@@HotPinkst17 Yes, I see that he could be a denier and I simply don’t engage with ignorance like that. But I also get the frustration of some that say people have genocide tunnel vision and are unwilling to acknowledge just how common it is. You have to understand and operate in reality in order to fix it. Not implying that you don’t, just a lot of the masses. The holocaust wasn’t just a blip in history, it has many, many fellows.
@@thereisnocarolinHR Sad but true. Glad people like us are willing to take an honest look at the darkest humanity has to offer and work for a better future.
Oh brother. You just love to hear yourselves talk.
i hope you're young and beautiful because i don't think your going to make it on your interlect
@@nguyenhonganh7170 LMFAO!!!! Sad but true.
Probably why he got so derned smart
I'm glad the previous responses have lightened my mood and lessened my concern over this comment.
We are literally trying to understand the greatest crimes committed by man, 14 million killed in a small portion of the word in just 12 years.
Something that is *not* discussed for fun. It is painful, unpleasant, and important.
Can you understand that there might be things that people don't love to do, but do precisely because of love, for the love of humanity.
@@nguyenhonganh7170 . Oh, Don't you think a lot of yourself, Mr. Brilliant Intellectual? We all have our views sir. Mine doesn't have to match yours. By your comment to me I take you are an old, pasty, crusty, wrinkled up college professor.
EXCELLENT EXCELLENT !!!!
