Mein Kampf by Hitler is written just to scrutinize the jews for absolutely no reason other than pure hatred. While Hitler does (I think) try to appeal to the audience at first with his childhood and upbringing sap story it makes a very sharp turn to what is definitely the… Read more“Mein Kampf: Context”

As much as I think Hitler is a horrible human being, the first three chapters made me feel bad for him. He talks about his dreams and aspirations for his life and wants to get into art School. That all came to a halt when he didn’t pass the exam… Read more“Mein Kampf: Chapters 1-9”
