What’s my line?

Hey, it is PLAY time!

I just watched the live story of Joseph Goebbels, Hitler’s Minister of Propaganda. Yeap Nazis had no problem with propaganda, in fact they embraced it with more zeal than an invasion of a border country populated with men wearing berets and women with hairy armpits and a willingness to swing open their legs at the site of leather trench coat and a swaztika.

Propaganda was synonymous with “information” in the Nazi era. It did not have the negative connotations it has now.

Goebbels has been described as;
“an enigmatic genius whose successful manipulation of mass political opinion was unprecedented.”

What turned Goebbels into such a fanatical propagandist? What was the impetus to use propaganda as an integral part of government as important as the government itself? The Bolsheviks.Yeap, the template of Nazi Germany was Russian made with the Lenin seal of approval.

In Goebbels’ words “The communists are clever, a little obvious in their propaganda but we can learn a lot from them”.

So now we have the Hitler nightmare being fueled and inspired by Communist Russia.

Wait it gets better.

Some of Hitler’s most notable quotes came from Goebbels and Goebbels had plenty of bullshit to dish out during his own speeches.

It is no secret that KaSStro was greatly influenced by mein Kampf. Actually all you have to do is to watch a video of Hitler talking to A MILLION people and the watch KaSStro throwing a tantrum fit at “Plaza de la Revolucion” Same mannerisms, the microphone touch , the finger waggling , the pregnant pauses. Man what a ROLE model the sumo HIJO DE PUTA got himself.

I am not sure wheather Hitler may be spinning in whatever the fuck that pricks souls is resting or watching KaSStro and giving him the thumbs up!

So watching this Goebbels story (actually a documentary with LOTS of video clips from the era) you realize that KaSStro’s socialist revolution is just the bastard child of Hitler’s 1000 year Reich.

And now for the game:

Below you’ll find 10 quotes pulled from Hitler’s and/or KaSStro speeches. Your mission (if you decide to accept it ) is to identify the SOB who utter the line of shit.
Was it KaStro or Hitler? I will have the answer for you on Monday.(Careful it gets tricky)

1) All the ills that have hurt our country may be traced to the rich and the desinterest of the goverment for the working class.
2) This revolution is for the people by the people
3) The Bourgeoisie has no place in our country. This is a country of working men.
The rich have no place within our midst.
4) Socialism will bring our country out of the oppressing chains that have held us own.
5) The day, one (person) doesn’t want me in power, I will leave.
6) It does not matter, condemn me. History will absolve me
7) This country if for its citizens, the working man, not the rich business men or foreign conglomerates. As of now all large business will belong to the people. (Before nationalizing all private enterprises)
8) We search for peace and we feel we can find it in our brand of Socialism
9) We will build a 10,000 room resort for all workers were they can rest, relax while the party rewards them for their unselfish efforts.
10) There is no good government without propaganda and there is no propaganda without good government

The winner will get .. er.. hmm ... actually not a fucking thing !

I won't even attempt the quiz, but in a very sick way Goebbels was a master at his work.
