Rudolf Jung was an early National Socialist who wrote the first book on the movement (six years before Mein Kampf). He not only reveals the origins of the National Socialist movement, but he also shapes Hitler's views, and spells out their views and what they were trying to achieve. Jung wanted to be known as the 'Karl Marx' of National Socialism. In this video, we'll take a look at Rudolf Jung's life and book, and see what we can learn from this.

This video is for informational purposes and was created so we may better understand the past and learn from the mistakes others have made. I am NOT a Nazi, a Fascist, a Marxist, or anything else. In fact, I've made videos debunking these ideologies, such as this one youtu.be/qYLvrwj-HFI (Exposing National Socialism's Contradictions to refute it)

ABOUT TIK 📝

History isn’t as boring as some people think, and my goal is to get people talking about it. I also want to dispel the myths and distortions that ruin our perception of the past by asking a simple question - “But is this really the case?”. I have a 2:1 Degree in History and a passion for early 20th Century conflicts (mainly WW2). I’m therefore approaching this like I would an academic essay. Lots of sources, quotes, references and so on. Only the truth will do.
