If you were born and raised in Germany in the 1930s, would you have been a Nazi? Would you have joined the Resistance? Or somewhere in between? This test says only 5% of test takers have joined the resistance. I'm skeptical. Post how you scored.

The Resistance
Achtung! You are 23% brainwashworthy, 31% antitolerant, and 57% blindly patriotic

Welcome to the Resistance (Der Widerstand)! You believe in freedom, justice, equality, and your country, and you can't be converted to the the dark side.

Breakdown: your Blind Patriotism levels are borderline unhealthy, but you show such a love of people from everywhere and a natural resistance to brainwashing, you would probably focus your energy to fight the Fuehrer with furor, so to speak.

Conclusion: born and raised in Germany in the early 1930's, you would have taken up ARMS against the oppressors. Or even your friends' oppressors. Congratulations!

It says I would have been a Nazi General.

Bullshit, although I do believe I would have fitted into the civil technocracy very well.

I'm a Jew so I would be killed.

I'm a Jew so I would be killed.
Yeah, but you probably have what it takes. :p

Achtung! You are 7% brainwashworthy, 63% antitolerant, and 23% blindly patriotic

Sie sind ein Schwein! You would've lived a quiet and consenting civilian life in Germany, while the Nazis stomped all over people you didn't quite care about.

You would never have directly joined the Nazis, basically because (1) you're not so nationalistic, (2) you're not that susceptible to crazy propaganda, and (3) you probably don't have the bloodlust. But you would've appreciated the Party, because you liked how they cleaned out the [insert race you dislike here].
I suppose they are more or less right, except for the bolded. It's not that I dislike other people, its just that I wouldn't care if they all died. The test, like so many others, confuses apathy with malice.

Predictably I would have been a civilian.

The Expatriate
Achtung! You are 30% brainwashworthy, 27% antitolerant, and 4% blindly patriotic
Congratulations! You are not susceptible to brainwashing, your values and cares extend beyond the borders of your own country, and your Blind Patriotism does not reach unhealthy levels. If you had been German in the 30s, you would've left the country.

One bad scenario -- as I hypothetically project you back in time -- is that you just wouldn't have cared one way or the other about Nazism. Maybe politics don't interest you enough. But the fact that you took this test means they probably do. I'm gonna give you the benefit of the doubt.

Did you know that many of the smartest Germans departed prior to the beginning of World War II, because they knew some evil shit was brewing? Brain Drain. Many of them were scientists. It is very possible you could have been one of them.

Conclusion: born and raised in Germany in the early 1930's, you would not have been a Nazi.





Yay! I'm Einstein! ;)

So that puts me in the same group as Einstein... I can't complain about that.

:mad: OKCupid has yet to produce a quiz I find accurate; atleast anymore then a fangirl quizilla one.

Der Kommandant
Achtung! You are 23% brainwashworthy, 54% antitolerant, and 47% blindly patriotic
Opportunistic, patriotic to a fault, and not so fond of people who aren't just like you, you are like a Nazi General. Back in Germany in the 1940's, you would have been at the top of the asshole list. Not for Nazism, necessarily, but for your own sick, twisted values. Then, out of superior intelligence (relative to other Nazis, that is), you would've climbed to the top.

Damnit... they have a point..

Strange. Last time I got resistance, this time I got everyday German, which kinda bothers me given that I'm Jewish.

It crashes my firefox.

I'd be either a Nazi or in the resistance. I ain't no neutral.

I don't know about you, but I take solace from the fact that Germany was split in half, never to be reunited again.

What the heck? Damn, how old is this test? Or maybe I should ask: How damn stupid and ignorant is the guy who wrote it?

Achtung! You are 23% brainwashworthy, 36% antitolerant, and 47% blindly patriotic

Personally I love Rommel. The non-nazi who fought for germany and kicked ass. But I dunno... wonder if there are any more specific tests out there. Meh.

What the...!! lol, I didn't expect this!!


ADOLF HITLER
Achtung! You are 53% brainwashworthy, 50% antitolerant, and 47% blindly patriotic
You probably you lack the charisma and intelligence to be Hitler himself, but then again, who knows? You've got a few of the necessary traits, at least. You are crazy, nationalistic, and more proud of your background than you should be.

Right now I am breathing a big sigh of relief that you don't live in Germany in the 1930's, although I guess things couldn't have gone any worse than they did, even with your help. Maybe all this energy that you feel right now could be directed to an end less evil? Are you a Police Officer? Not in my town, I hope.

Sadly, you exceeded expectations on all 3 indicators.

The Everyday German

Had you lived in Germany in the 1930s, you'd have probably just gone along with the flow. Men with guns are surrounding the house next door? The bagel place on the corner's gone? Hmm...whatever.

The data show you're a decent person who's willing to listen to what people of authority tell you. That's what most people are, and in most times and most places, that's ok. But not then; not there.

The sad conclusion: you would've missed your Jewish friends, but you would've done nothing about it. Seriously. But rest assured, you would've forgiven yourself eventually.

being born in the early thirties would have made you less likely to be a nazi, the questions asked were better suited for the 1910-1925 generations

Oops, I got Adolf Hitler. Heh. You know, I probably would've been a Nazi had I lived back then. I'm a complete sucker for jingoistic nationalism... :cool:

Achtung! You are 46% brainwashworthy, 86% antitolerant, and 85% blindly patriotic.

I can't believe that the test-writer called wienerschnitzel disgusting. I bet the slanderous bastard's never even tried schnitzel, because I don't see how anyone who's eaten the stuff even once could hate it! Mm mm good!

being born in the early thirties would have made you less likely to be a nazi, the questions asked were better suited for the 1910-1925 generations

Given that you had to be over 18 years old to join the Nazi party, and the party was dissolved in 1945, and think that counts as correct.

(for them slow of thinking... 1930 + 18 = 1948)

sieg heil

Yeah the test said i was in the 5% of the resistance and what not...But I know if i was in germany during the the 3 reich, well i'd been put to death in a camp...Stupid Nazis....gar

The first time this site was posted in nationstates I got "the resistance" but this time I got "ex patriot." Why isn't Ex Patriot an option in the poll.

The test says I would have accepted Nazi rule. I dispute this. I may have pride in Europe and its cultural heritage, yet if anything I would have supported a return of the Hohenzollern. The Nazi party was broodish and simplistic. I would not have supported it. That test's background info is also inaccurate. The Germans could not do anything against Hitler. Resistance existed, but it was divided and dealt with very effectively. I am surprised that people without good historical knowledge would dare accuse a nation of anything.

You exhibit a very well-developed sense of Right and Wrong and believe in economic fairness.

Sounds alright I guess. My political beliefs are rather individual, rather close to Plato's ideas in the Republic. Its not far off though.

The Nazi party was broodish and simplistic. I would not have supported it. That test's background info is also inaccurate. The Germans could not do anything against Hitler. Resistance existed, but it was divided and dealt with very effectively. I am surprised that people without good historical knowledge would dare accuse a nation of anything.

People love doing that. It's a fact of humanity, and American Civil Religion.

Der Kommandant

Achtung! You are 30% brainwashworthy, 54% antitolerant, and 85% blindly patriotic

Opportunistic, patriotic to a fault, and not so fond of people who aren't just like you, you are like a Nazi General. Back in Germany in the 1940's, you would have been at the top of the asshole list. Not for Nazism, necessarily, but for your own sick, twisted values. Then, out of superior intelligence (relative to other Nazis, that is), you would've climbed to the top..


Well, I try to get power, and taking over other countries is always a source of pride, especially when I'm the one who gets to run one of them after the war. Hell, I would just want people to fear me...that's not a bad thing, right?

Its a sign of their blatant ignorance and of the perils of a mass culture.

You are a

Social Liberal
(71% permissive)

and an...

Economic Liberal
(33% permissive)

You are best described as a:

Democrat

You exhibit a very well-developed sense of Right and Wrong and believe in economic fairness.

now how the hell did you get that and i'm a socialist?

"It should be legal for two consenting adults to challenge each other to a duel and fight a Death Match."
maybe it was agreeing to that proposal! :D

I agreed to it too :p

That test is racist and simplistic at best. Ignore it really.

How is it racist?

Listen, the fact is, the vast majority of Germans supported the Nazi party. Look at it this was, EM. Say you are a young German man. You have no money, no job with which to make money (because of the rampant un-employment), and are barely making a living (if you would call it "living"). Then a strong, charismatic leader arises and promises jobs, food, money, and a decent living. All he asks is that you hand over all your political rights and pledge alleigance to him. NOW you can say "I would rather die", but when you're lying in a gutter, with your hand on your gut because you are so hungry, and you haven't bathed in a while, you would grasp at the chance for a better life. You might even join the Wermacht (for it's pretty much the only thing you're qualified for, anyhoo).

Hell, even I would have supported the Nazi's if that were me. And it's not as if situations described above were rare in the Weimar Republic; far from it. Germany's economy was really down the toilet during those times.I mean, that's the only way a party like the Nazi Party could come to power.

Its racist because it:
-Ignores the fact that Resistance was divided and dealt with by the Nazi state
-That only 33% of the German people voted the Nazis in. What gave the Nazis a majority was cooperation with the DNVP.
-It assumes that there were alternatives. Were there? No. Just the KPD, the weak SPD (which was eventually banned from government) and some fringe parties. No good alternatives.
-Implies that the Germans were passive and willing, whereas they were coerced into passivity.

I would not join the NSDAP ever. Why? It was a low class movement. I would either vote for the DNVP, disassociate myself with partisan politics or support some monarchist party.

I agreed to it too :p

That's just like me saying that I would have supported the Americans in the American Revolution if I were in those times, because now I know they won. However, if I were back then, I would have joined the Loyalists no doubt. They assured me a job, money, a home, stability, and protection. What did the United States offer? Instability, worthless cash, debt, and weakness. If you think about it, if you replace the Loyalists with Nazis and United States with Weimar Republic, you basically get the situation there was in 1933. Even if the Nazi's were only then able to pass the Enabling act because they A. Kicked out the Kommunists, and B. allied with the DNVP, I firmly believe that in the next elections they would have won by a landslide.

Congratulations! You are not susceptible to brainwashing, your values and cares extend beyond the borders of your own country, and your Blind Patriotism does not reach unhealthy levels. If you had been German in the 30s, you would've left the country.

One bad scenario -- as I hypothetically project you back in time -- is that you just wouldn't have cared one way or the other about Nazism. Maybe politics don't interest you enough. But the fact that you took this test means they probably do. I'm gonna give you the benefit of the doubt.

Did you know that many of the smartest Germans departed prior to the beginning of World War II, because they knew some evil shit was brewing? Brain Drain. Many of them were scientists. It is very possible you could have been one of them.

Conclusion: born and raised in Germany in the early 1930's, you would not have been a Nazi.

---So...am I a...scientist?---

That being said, I am totally against the Nazi Party in terms of their philosophy and stuff. However, I must admit, they did turn a country that was dirt-poor and full of unemployment and turn it into one of the strongest nations the world has ever known (it took the other strongest nations the world has ever known to bring it down).

Hitler promised and delivered. What did you expect? He gave poor people food and shelter and they willingly followed him. Would you? He slipped his other programs in under the rug.

Everyone would have been a nazi.

or a monarchist. w00t!
Go Hohenzollern!

I firmly expected Hitler to win. Of course, I can't really say that now, since it's kinda past the time when the elections were, and I wasn't really alive in 1933. I wasn't even conceived. My Mother wasn't even conceived. Hell, my GRANDMOTHER wasn't even conceived...

I will agree there. What he did was short of breathtaking. Yet, even Imperial Germany managed to hold back 3 imperial powers (the UK, Russia and France) and nearly won WW 1, save for US interference. It had higher education levels as well. Between the two, I would indubitably have chosen the 2nd Reich.

He repeated the Kaiser's mistake of biting off more than he could chew. Had he been more prudent and gone for one country at a time, he would have succeeded. No one would care if he crushed the USSR. Everyone hated it. He could then proceed to crushing the West. His actions led to him fighting against both at once. :rolleyes:

My argument though, was that the German people could not have foreseen what Hitler had planned, nor were they wholly liable for his actions. Partially, perhaps. No more than that though.

If you were born and raised in Germany in the 1930s, would you have been a Nazi? Would you have joined the Resistance? Or somewhere in between? This test says only 5% of test takers have joined the resistance. I'm skeptical. Post how you scored.

hitler destroyed the credibility of germans when he titled his reign of terror the so called Third Reich.
Imperial Germany stopped an unstoppable army(Russia), held two countries in check(france & GB) and the only reason it was defeated was the blockade and u.s. intervention.

victors write history. the british were committing similar (not equal but still similar) acts like those in belgium with the blockade. the common german starved. the people were in revolt over this, one of the reasons why the surrender was so easily attained. left that out of textbooks, eh?

stalin killed more russians than hitler killed jews. the u.s. killed more native americans than hitler killed jews. never see those mentioned either.

i'm not saying hitler was good, but he wasn't the worst. kaisers did a much better job.

if hitler did one interesting thing, he really threw it in france's face when he forced them to surrender in the same car germany surrendered in in 1918.

if anything, all this shows is that all throughout history, germans kicked some major ass militarily.

Agreed on all accounts, most primarily the first one :D

My argument though, was that the German people could not have foreseen what Hitler had planned, nor were they wholly liable for his actions. Partially, perhaps. No more than that though.

its not exactly like hitler came out and said "hey vote for me and i'll kill all the jews"
he lied to everyone and now all germans and their descendants (EVEN THOSE WHOSE DESCENDANTS LEFT BEFORE HITLER like mine) have to pay. :rolleyes:

:mad: :headbang: damn nazis :mad: :headbang:

I find this unfair. Russians don't feel such guilt for Stalin. He killed both their compatriots and foreigners. Turks don't feel guilt for what they did to the Armenians and so on. Why should the Germans suffer so many years later for something they only partially are to blame for? :mad:

if anything, all this shows is that all throughout history, germans kicked some major ass militarily.
And all we (and everyone else) got out of it was death and suffering.

Anyways, I thought it would be interesting to make a seperate thread along the lines of the election 1930 "Who would you vote for" or something.
Good idea, or would I just be stealing people from this thread?

The Resistance
Achtung! You are 30% brainwashworthy, 22% antitolerant, and 42% blindly patriotic
Welcome to the Resistance (Der Widerstand)! You believe in freedom, justice, equality, and your country, and you can't be converted to the the dark side.

Breakdown: your Blind Patriotism levels are borderline unhealthy, but you show such a love of people from everywhere and a natural resistance to brainwashing, you would probably focus your energy to fight the Fuehrer with furor, so to speak.

Conclusion: born and raised in Germany in the early 1930's, you would have taken up ARMS against the oppressors. Or even your friends' oppressors. Congratulations!

Less than 5% of all test takers earn a spot in the Resistance

ive taken tests like this before...nice to have it reaffirmed that i am not a mindless robot..woohooo:mp5:

Why should the Germans suffer so many years later for something they only partially are to blame for?
Because, justified or not, Germans consider themselves civilised - and they have been directly confronted with the effects of genocide, Russians or Turks or Americans haven't.

Germans at the end of WWII may still have held in their head the knowledge of every Germany that came before them...one of the most advanced civilisations on the planet, home to culture, arts and science - and yet this was how it ended.

It was that kind of shock that caused the immune reaction that you can still observe today.

it goes with victors write history. the world makes germans feel bad. it hangs over your head.
"where are your relatives from? germany? haha you were a nazi!"
germans let it go and try to heal while the world simply snickers and says, "so, you used to be nazis"

Yet their countries have committed mass murder. The Turks refuse that they committed genocide, of course. The world seems to be indifferent. I will have to agree with Fleckenstein on this one.

Same with my being South African. People simply assume we are racist slavers. I may be proud of my heritage, but I am not racist, and that people are so fast to prejudicially assume something about me makes me lose faith in their critical ability.

I'm a Jew, so I'd be dead ...

If I was not shot outright trying to resist, I'd be encamped; but I'm a great tailor, so they'd probably have kept me alive to sew buttons on Nazi uniforms and whatnot.

I'd probably have been a survivor and would now be wallowing in my depression, not talking to anyone, and drinking heavily at a south Florida bar.

Ok now I'm sad. :(
