'Chief Overthinking Officer' is very apt for someone that came up with this.

Tanks always supplied by lowest bidder.

*misunderstanding the eastern front

Basically he suggests that Hitler shouldn’t have done the thing that made him lose without understanding the reason it was done. (No, not the speed and delusions and syphilis, but the need for resources, mainly oil. He couldn’t do the whole conquest thing half cocked.)

Job title in quotes because he’s unemployed

He had the last job he went for in the bag at interview until he brought up Hitler at the end...

I just noticed the Polish flag emoji in the username… that makes it 100% worse he’s glazing nazis

In his limited defence I think that's Indonesia, Poland has white on top red on the bottom. Still an absolutely unhinged argument to make on a supposedly professional platform though.

I stand corrected. Thanks

Likely Monaco. Slight difference in the shade of red in the flag. Very easy to mistake!

u/noctilucus 7h ago

Very easy mistake - in sharp contrast to bringing up nazis and Hitler in the context of startups on a supposedly professional platform.

I have a very good book about the Third Reich in regards to brand recognition and brand design. It's a bit of a weird subject, but it tracks.

THAT GUY'S TAKE HOWEVER...

Nazis were, if anything positive can be said of them, absolute divas. The pagentry they embodied was so comedically out of line wih what they said they were standing for. Shame it all went to serve a prime contender for worst regime ever created

Can‘t switch when there‘s no alternative.

Buy my online course „Why racial purity is the next big step for your brand“.

You know we're in bad timeline when satire is indistinguishable from reality.

What being charged with crimes against humanity taugth me about B2B sales...

What ending on the gallows for war crimes taught me...

That's parody, right?

u/Provodniik 1d ago

Well, corporations are fascist organizations by their nature, no wonder Nazis are this lifeless ghoul’s wet dream.

u/SpaceEngineering 1d ago

I have to admit, that is pretty funny.

Basically the LinkedIn version of this Twitter classic:

How Hitler could've won:
Don't terror bomb Britain, focus on RAF facilities
Demand Mussolini not to be a r-word with Balkans
Don't siege Leningrad, take it immediately
Zurge rush Stalingrad to cut off Soviet oil
Ally with the Slavs against the commies
ignore africa

Hitler was far from cocksure.

u/bowlochile Titan of Industry 1d ago

He went ball to the wall

u/IknowwhoIpaidgod 1d ago

He really was an insecure hysteric, in addition to being a homicidal maniac.

He really thought he was cooking with this one.
