    I’ll be nice and assume you’re just stupid instead of actively trying to support the Zionist cause by letting their biggest supporter back into office.

      No, don’t worry, just like how the right-wing winning in the US will TOTALLY lead to the left-wing suddenly organizing and taking power, enabling genocide will actually STOP it.

      God, the brilliance of this modern form of accelerationism, it’s just… frightening, isn’t it?

            While said by Holtermann (though in a different sense - saying that after Hitler, the SPD will have to clean up; rather than saying Hitler will radicalize the working classes by his grotesque behavior), it was more prominent as a KPD slogan in opposition to a united front with ‘social fascists’ (the SPD).

              If anybody could find anything at all written in the 1930s saying it’s a KPD slogan, and not just people decades later calling it “well known” with no source and only in English with no explanation what it was in German, that would be really cool.

                “Warum versagten die Marxisten”, published 1934, mentions it as “Nach Hitler Kommen Wir”

                The pro-Nazi periodical “Deutschlands Erneuerung” also mentions it as a slogan of the KPD in 1933.

                  I’ve found both of those before, the second one quotes it as “Herr Holtermann proudly predicted” so that doesn’t work.

                  The first one based on Google Books is an unattributed chapter title, and searching doesn’t find any German words for slogan or motto in it. And Rudolf Olden is prominent enough that I think someone would have cited it by now if he had a KPD attribution in there.

                    “Find me someone who attributes it to the KPD in a contemporary document.”

                    [finds you a contemporary document]

                    “Well, he doesn’t academically cite his sources or literally call it a motto!”

                    Yeah, that’s about what I expected.
