| 0:00.0 | But it's a fact that Britain has become a multi-ethnic and multiracial society as the United States is today. |
| 0:08.4 | And London is a cosmopolitan city the way New York is. |
| 0:12.0 | These are realities. |
| 0:13.7 | If your response to these cities is, I wish Hitler had won World War II, then it seems to me really don't have a place in a serious discourse |
| 0:22.5 | about these issues. You've exposed yourself as somebody who would like to be aligned with |
| 0:28.9 | the genocidal killers of the 1930s and 1940s. When we talk about World War II, there's no |
| 0:35.3 | getting around Adolf Hitler and his vile evil plan for the planet. |
| 0:39.0 | This is why World War II wasn't just a battle of armies. It was a battle for humanity itself. |
| 0:43.4 | There's a narrative introduced recently that Adolf Hitler wasn't really interested in continuing |

| 1:11.2 | that undermines the reality of the atrocities committed by Adolf Hitler during the war. |
| 1:15.5 | To assist us in weeding through these untruths is the one and only Neil Ferguson. |
| 1:20.0 | Ferguson is a Scottish historian who's made waves in both academic and popular circles. |
| 1:23.7 | He's known for his in-depth analysis of economic history, empire, and of course |
| 1:27.7 | the big picture stuff, global conflicts like World War I and World War II. He doesn't just |
| 1:32.3 | tell you what happened. He tells you why it happened, what could have been different, and how |
| 1:35.8 | the war reshaped the entire global order. His analysis goes beyond the battlefield, digging |
| 1:40.2 | into the economic and geopolitical forces that fueled the conflict. Neil doesn't just recite history. |
