Is this actually poorly written, or is that just the thing where they try to bash him any way they can (small dick, missing testicle, secretly gay, etc.)
>>

It's not bad for what it is when you remember it was dictated by Hitler to an assistant while he was in jail (it was a really cushy jail where he could have visitors in his room with him) and is therefore a stream of consciousness monologue put into writing.
>>
It's poorly structured, and all over the place. Some very good insightful nuggets here and there, even good ideas on the state - citizen relationship but It's just so random.

Then you have segments that read like a 16 year old /pol/tard wrote them, like it's a diff author altogether. Although they are fun, they seem out of place in a serious work.

It's not great. They kind of knew at the time so there's an index for passages where you get the gist of it, but reading it though, yeah it does sound like this guy didn't understand his friends at the homeless shelter thought he was an incel

Read and find it out for yourself you tard
I think it sucks but whatever. It's not hard to get a copy of. I got mine for like 10 bucks at a flee market. It's not some kind of esoteric text. Just read it and move on with your life

He got betrayed for nothing btw, look at Britain now

At least the Beatles and Seville got to fuck little girls and shoot heroin or something

Nah, Hitler wrote a book unlike Napoleon and Alexander

the autobiographical parts are good. His reaction to the capitulation of Germany 1918 stuck with me
>>
>>24942860
It reads like a rough draft. It's structured poorly and assumes you have an intimate understanding of that specific time period.
His speeches were better organized.
>>
>>24942860
I recall reading Hitler himself later on looked back on the book not too fondly and found that he wasn't satisfied with how it turned out. The common thing many authors say when they look back at on old book and aren't happy with it.
>>
It's incoherent. Like he wrote down a rant where he goes on multiple unrelated tangents. He could have used an editor.

I expected a coherent worldview that defined his vision of nazism. Instead I get an incoherent rant with a lot of irrelevant stuff and clearly emotionally laden passages that doesn't fit in his own worldview.

I liked the El duce book better because it's more coherent.

I think it's kind of bizarre neo nazi's praise this book considering it kind of undermines their own ideology so hard.

>>24942860
Much better than all the political memoir slop that has come out in the last 100 years.
>>
>>24942860
If Adolf Hitler son of Allois had remained a communist, as he was at the beginning of his political opinions and had not mutated into a German National Socialist, he would still have attacked the Soviet Union because the owners of Capitals in Europe and beyond were so afraid of losing capitals to communists that they willingly financed the warfare against the Soviet Union because communism or some kind of socialism was being built there.
The persecution of Jews by the German nationalist Party should be perceived as a conflict between Christianity and Judaism, because the German National Socialist movement was Christian. Interreligious disputes are not new on planet Earth and beyond, it is an eternal and regular phenomenon.

hegseth is the only politician with a coherent readable book, maybe ever

No. Uncle Aldi specifically points out christkeks approach the JQ from a theological point of view while for natsocs its a race issue.

You might want to fact check that

>Is this actually poorly written
I haven't read it, but I think it's written average or good, judging by the fact that its translation and the original are prohibited for purchase and sale in my country. You know, the country of birth is not chosen, destiny chose it for me.

>Hitler wrote a book unlike Napoleon and Alexander

It is unknown whether Alexander the Great wrote a book. Historians wrote his biography only after 200 years since his death. And it was a political purchase, it was not allowed politically to write good things about him because was a task to forestall the rebirth of Alexander's son of Zeus empire, so they wrote that Alexander the Great was a homosexual, which should by their opinions cause mass hostility towards Him.

>>24942860
It feels a bit underwealming for something written by someone like hitler.
On its own merits it's fairly good though, just a bit scatterbrained at times.
>>
>>24942860
Its poorly written in the sense that its not written. Its ranted to the typographist while Hitler was walking back and fourth in his cell while gesticulating furiously
>>
>>24942860
>small dick, missing testicle, secretly gay
this is basically just how women argue with men
>>
thoughts on the ford translation compared to other translations?
>>
>>24945490
the ferrari translation is a faster read
>>
Think of it less like a book and more like a podcast with one guy. Hitler didnt "write" it and simply orated it to someone else who copied it down
>>
>>24942860
It is poorly written. you know that saying about how if you want to turn someone atheist you should force them to read the bible? Its the same things with mein kempf and nazis.

There is a lot of projection and/or hypocrisy where he condemns jews for doing X but then goes on to say doing X for the fatherland is actually heroic and the dissonance is never addressed. I honestly think this is how a party book in 1984 would look like.
>>
There is also a lengthy categorization of civilizations into builders, keepers and equipment and talk of Darwinism but of course when Germany is winning its because they are the chosen ones but if Germany is losing its because they are unwilling to sink as low as the enemy, have been betrayed or the moon was in the wrong phase. Its always someone else's fault. Hitler would need to have been out of touch with reality to think the book made him look good. I expected good propaganda but instead found a linkedin lunatic post
