Hey everybody. It's James Lindsay and you are listening to the New Discourses podcast,

and we are continuing today with our epic series called The Nazi Experiment, where we are

unveiling what was going on in the Nazi regime. So this is volume six of that sprawling series, which as we've

explained in all the other episodes is plus one and the total number that are in the series,

plus the bullet. So there are lots of episodes out there for you to go check out.

It will be a lot to summarize everything. I'll have to give some kind of a playsetter.

But in this episode, we're going to actually depart from Hitler.

We've been reading Mein Kampf in every one of these episodes.

And in the previous episode, we read carefully through chapter 12 of volume one, where he lays out, where Hitler lays out,

the kind of requirements he expects for the birth of a new movement, meaning the Nazi movement,

which will be committed to this racialist worldview that's said to be at the heart of the

entire Nazi experiment. And we went through the 25

points of the Nazi Party program, which preceded Hitler's involvement in the Nazi party actually.

And then we talked about the 14, as they're numbered, but really 15 additional points that Hitler gives

about what he expects out of the movement there in chapter 12 and kind of laid out a picture

of what the Nazi movement was supposed to look like. Just to remind you the running thesis

of this entire podcast series, the running theme thesis, I stumbled between the two words,

is that the Nazis faced a set of conditions. We might call them Vimar conditions if you want

in the Vimar Republic following World War I, all of these things. The Nazis were proposing an answer to that set of solutions.

They proposed a grand experiment.

Let's adopt a racialist worldview.

Let's blame the Jews for our problems.
