Hitler's Plans for the World if He Won - Summary

Summary

The provided text is a detailed narrative that explores an alternate reality where Adolf Hitler successfully invaded and occupied most of Europe and the United States during World War II. It discusses the rise of fascism, the impact of the war on various countries, and the potential consequences of such an outcome.

The narrative begins with Hitler standing on a podium to great applause, as various nationalities, including Germans, have fallen under his influence. He has won, and it's hell on earth for many. The text then delves into the details of Hitler's victory in Europe, starting with the devastation of Poland at the beginning of the Second World War. It describes the German army's efficient use of tanks and mobile infantry, leading to a swift victory.

The narrative then moves on to the Battle of Britain, where the RAF fought against the German Luftwaffe. Despite the Germans' heavy use of the powerful methamphetamine, Pervitin, the British managed to withstand the attack, leading to a shift in the war's dynamics.

Hitler then invades Russia, but the Soviets kill around 300,000 of their own soldiers for refusing to fight, fighting badly, or going AWOL. This, coupled with Stalin's focus on weaponry over feeding his people, contributes to the Soviet Union's resistance.

In the alternate reality, the US meddles less in the war and companies like GM and Ford sell "useful war materials" to Germany. The US might not have interfered at all if the Pearl Harbor attack hadn't happened.

In Britain and the Soviet Union, Jews, Gypsies, Communists, certain intellectuals, and others are either sent to labor camps to work or die in the process. The narrative then explores the rise of fascism in the US, with the German propaganda machine under Joseph Goebbels being incredibly effective. The narrative ends with Hitler receiving a report stating that 9.7 million Jews, 350,000 homosexuals, and close to 840,000 Romani and Sinti people have been exterminated.

In summary, this narrative presents a chilling alternate history where Hitler successfully occupies most of Europe and the United States, leading to widespread suffering and the rise of fascism across the globe.
