ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC" part 3

Jimmyhusband said:
The first paragraph is evidence that a little knoledge is a dangerous thing, the NSDAp’s social base was not the lumpenproletariat, it was first the peasantry and then the bourgeois, driven by fear of thr KPD. I suggest you read some grown ups’ books.
second paragraph is fantasy and the third shows little understanding of Liverpool, I suspect you are a teenage wool who has a limited view of the world. And if you want to know about racism in Football Cliffie Marshall is a good case study.

Please stay and enlighten the audience as to why you are here pretending to be a supporter of a club you obviously hate?

At the minute all he has to do is bend over to tie his shoelace and one trips up over his back and does a nose dive into the concrete. I had to google lumpenproletariat for heaven's sake!

They get very hung up on their perceived view of me as very bright (which I'm really not). You wouldn't believe the amount of them who will either message or tag me into posts on social media telling me they're more clever than I am- which they probably are. It's like they've put me onto a pedastal with Stephen Fry or whatever. It really irks them.

I had one guy once going about how I hadn't read Catcher In the Rye on the assumption that I'm some sort of literary expert on it. I have read it, and it's not a particularly niche or difficult book to read. I didn't choose the username on any basis other than it being the first thing that popped into my head when registering.

They're a strange bunch, and will be absolutely stewing over on RAWK, not only because the people who they keep sending across don't understand basic histiography, but that nobody is the least bit bothered about what they say. All everyone else sees is this rambling idiot who can't write concisely and them taking great offence to obscure historical references. They're in an intellectual punch bag, fighting only themselves as the audience just looks on and wonders what has happened to them to lead them to this breakdown and hoping they'll be better in the morning after a good nights sleep.

Ah ok, so which grown ups books would you recommend that I read? I mean for clarity there weren't really peasants in Germany beyond the 19th century (and most historians accept they ceased to exist at some point in the first half the century before the Nazis). So I struggle to see a serious case that the Nazi's social base was heavily based in an group ofpeople who were distinguished about 100 yeras previously as the modes of production updated.

I'll await your suggestions on "grown up books" on the existence German peasantry in the early 20th century. As you say, a little knowledge is dangerous and all that.

Maybe he meant peasantry with an asterisk?
