How is the Messerschmitt (a weapon designed for war) proof that germany was far advanced into the space race?The Nazis investigated rocketry for warfare, and were far off from achieving anything like an ICBM or the Saturn V rocket.

Wow, you're intentionally being obtuse. "A weapon designed for war" Plenty of civilian inventions were passed down from the military. That's kinda how progress works, you know? Especially when one of them receives a massive budget being funded by the state.

I also didn't say the ME 262 was a space invention. I said it was proof Germany had more advance technology (which you denied).

How about you prove that the world would of been better under a nazi victory?

The Germans would never have passed liberal policies that changed how the world was after 1945. One immediate example: how manufacturing was outsourced to China and was used to kill off jobs at home.

The philosophy of National Socialism would never have promote such behavior, as well as Hitler's ally (Japan) would have also had a huge influence in the area.

BTW i never said life under the soviets was good for eastern europe but look at countries like poland that hate BOTH ideologies and tell me that they would of been fine being under nazi control when the nazi raped and murdered millions of eastern europeans.

Like I said, they would have assimilated easily. Look at the United Kingdom as an example. They're technically 4 separate countries and one of them (Scotland) even had a history of going to war with England. Yet despite their constant threats of wanting to leave the union and even oppressive history, the average Scot and Brit are identical today.
