How American Progressives Influenced Hitler
About this episode
The episode discusses the influence of American progressives on Hitler and the legacy of eugenics.
Despite attempts to whitewash its past, progressivism was a poisonous ideology from the beginning. One of its worst legacies is eugenics, which not only created social strife in the US, but also was exported to Germany, where the Nazis embraced it.
