Someone seriously tried to argue with me that the rise of Nazism happened because of the welfare state in the Wiemar Republic.

It's considered a normal argument in the english speaking world that the Nazis came about because of Weimar hyperinflation

Hi I have a rather odd request. During either the 2012 or 2016 primaries (I think it was 2016), a journalism thing (I think it was NYT or 538) headed some of its articles with this super cute caricature of a red & blue elephant chasing its own tail, and I lost the file in a hard drive crash and I really want it back. I consider it a "funny politics poo poo that I suddenly remember" :v: so I thought there's a chance someone else might too. Does anyone here happen to know how to find it again?

No, not the inflation, but the "culture that develops around welfare dependence."

I was more referencing that Weimar was in deflation when the nazis were powerful. During hyperinflation they were very marginal.

That's still extremely stupid, for partially the same reason i.e. the nazis got powerful during austerity.

they'll just give the oil execs $Texas as a bailout with nothing in return. Then they'll lay off 90% of their workforce and buy a hundred new yachts each before dumping all the oil into the nearest park or wildlife preserve.
