Stumbled across this gem produced by the U.S. Army Pictorial Service back when the original Nazi scars were still bleeding.

It talks about the tricks Nazis used to get to power, the tactics of division and suppression they have used, the fate of those who follow Nazi footsteps, and what needs to be done to stop them.

Truly a brilliant piece.

Yeah first saw this on Reddit in 2015. No one listened and I seen it many times since. Great film shit should be taugjt in schools. Instead....well I don't know it's not good.
