DBWI: Adolf Hitler isn't killed in the Beer Hall Putsch?

I have been reading up on the early days of the Weimar republic, before the May revolution, and found an obscure political group called the NAZI's or National Socialists, they were an odd mix of socialism and extreme racism as they described it, Socialism with out the Zionist Bolshevik elements. They actually attempted a coup where their leader, Adolf Hitler, is shot by the police. You guys think he could have impacted history that much if he lived?
 
OOC: These threads are always met with responses like "There's NO WAY some obscure raving anti-Semite is getting into power!"

OOC: Aren't all DBWI threads about somewhat odd things filled with people screaming "Ha there is no way *Insert real life event could happen*. Anyway this is more about exploring this world without Adolf Hitler for example, what is the may revolution? I don't know myself I just left it up there for people to figure out.
 
We sadly wouldn't have had the successful German Communist revolution that lead to a functional Communist state, unlike that of the Soviet Union. Good thing Hitler got killed.
 
Maybe... The NSDAP pretty much fell apart after the coup failed, but FWIG Hitler (and rhetorical skills) played a big role in building the movement and tying it together. I can see a Hitler who doesn't get shot and survives continuing to go around speaking and keeping his followers together -- oh wait though, he definitely won't be doing so initially though, since the coup leaders who did survive went to prison...

Perhaps WW2 could be avoided if left wing nationalism was more successful than the OTL right wing nationalism that destroyed Germany and Europe with it. Now everyone are Commies.

Functional Communist state, what have you been smoking and where can I get some?

The DDR still has the lowest GDP/capita in western Europe and the most pollution per Capita and the lowest production, yeah its better than the USSR, but it is still worse than the UK, France, Italy, Sweden and Poland

Sadly? how are you sorry for a bloody revolution after three years of civil war and 4 million dead?

Anyways, to the OP, Hitler was a nut who might have had a chance of succeeding like that idiot Mussolini in Italy, the one who lost to Ethiopia, likely he runs Germany into the ground and the Junkers in the Army take over, civil war averted and Germany is still a moderate and productive state

OOC: name will likely stay the same

Edit: apologies for the double post

OCC: First, double post? Secondly, well, I guess I'm shoehorned into being the crazy guy. Crap.

Who's Hitler? Someone explain him?
A left wing nationalist that may have been popular enough to get into power in the late 20s, thus avoiding World War 2 and the crazy German government that ran the country to the ground that paved the way open for Communist takeover in Europe.

OOC: Sorry both for double post and shoehorning, but you walked into, the Germans had a Communist revolt, they crushed it, no way for one without a war and a war will kill the economy

IC: Well okay, now that I think about it Hitler may do better than Mussolini, if he survives, but still won't be able to beat even Austria, Fascism, which Hitler's National Socialism is a variant of it and Fascism can't fight its way out of a wet paper bag

That wasn't until 1946, however.
Until then, the Junkers took over in 1930, and they were bad enough with their carpet bombings on Britain, Sweden, and Italy, and the rounding up and jailing of the Roma; who knows much worse the Nazis could have been?
Let's be thankful that we may never know.

@Alex1guy: Hitler was an extreme right-wing German nationalist born in Austria in 1889. He is best remembered as one of the martyrs revered by the German Neo-Junker movement, whom have made considerable gains in power in some areas(particularly in Schleswig-Holstein. That fat little meatball Rambert Wohlke seems to practically be worshipped in Kiel.) since the Greater People's Reich collapsed in 1989.

@Killer300: My grandma still remembers when the Soviet Union fell apart in 1945 after the civil war fizzled out over there. Premier Beria was executed by the White Russians after the show trials in November(Trotsky fled and helped set up the Communist states in Central Europe before the Katorgans could catch him).

Clever how you ommitted the fact that he was a RABID anti-semite and racial superiorist.
 
Ironically I think germanys comunist revolution was a godsend for the poles, a major industrial power going comunist freaked out the british empire, the french, and america. The end result was that a independent pole land was thought critical for preventing the two from linking up. The shear amount of money the poles have gotten to prop them up is stagering and has lets face it led to the current polish golden age.
 
ha ha, some folks need to make up their minds.

"We're socialists!
And, we're racists!
How do you do?"

"Power to the people!
Except for those filthy proles over there."


Did Freud ever meet this Hitler guy?


edit: I had no idea that this racist socialist Hitler existed. Was he a violent peacenik too? An atheist fundamentalist?

edit2: found him on wikipedia, a stub at least. he got gassed during the war, was a brave soldier, etc. pity about him getting blown away during a kegger that got out of control.


ooc: I just realized that I should be writing this in Polish, or, maybe in German, since my family might not only be much more numerous but also quite possibly still in east/east-central Europe.
 
Maybe the National Socialists gain a few seats and have success in a couple elections. Who knows? Still won't prevent the communists from taking over.
