It's history time! And what better way to learn history than to have an undereducated, irreverent slob explain it to you with profanity and pictures.Let me lay something out here: without Hitler, we would have never landed on the Moon.
Because Nazi Germany invested so much time and effort into developing batshit-crazy weapons technology, when World War II ended, thousands of German scientists - experts in jet engine technology, automotive design, rocket propulsion technology - were left abandoned. Scientists like Werner Von Braun. These scientists were almost immediately snapped up by the Allied powers, and soon American and Russian weapons development was directly affected by research done under Hitler's command.
Fast forward to the Cold War. ICBMs have become a reality. Russia has so many, they're fucking mailing them to Cuba. Kennedy is waving his arms on national television, calling the Russians his "little bitches" and proclaiming that America would put a "bad motherfucker on that goddamn moon, and show those Ruskies what 'fer".
1969. Kennedy's been dead six years, and Neil Armstrong is playing hopscotch on the Moon and flipping off Moscow from space.
All because Adolf Hitler was a mass-murdering asshole.
also, he was addicted to meth...wasn't he?
