How Hitler used hate to gain power and that its not worth it to fall for hate. Worth a watch, you can even do a movie night on it maybe, its scary.

I fully expected to drop this as soon as I saw the first screen considering this is a movie made by the military, but it actually was interesting that I sat through the whole thing.

One point this film makes that I rarely see online is the idea that oppositions are not dumb. They know what they are doing, and it's not just them accidentally shooting themselves at their foot (at least, not always).

Everything happens for a calculated reason... most of the time. Or maybe they're playing it off as intentional.
