Is there anything more cursed than a white early twenties military history nerd who says “I’m just saying….you have to admire its efficiency…”

the eternal joke here is that nazi industrial policy was stupendously inefficient

developing fourty-seven types of tank and having none of them end up being any good is actually FANTASTIC military strategy and not at all a waste of anyone’s time

If you waste away your industry trying to find that Perfect Superweapon that will totally Win The War, 

YOU

ARE 

VALID.

The War is ending, you’re losing. Every single Kar 98 and StG 44 you can get out the door is another rifle you can point at numerically and materially superior foes. It makes total sense, then, to piss away as much of your small arms manufacturing capacity as possible on a vast menagerie of weapons that are, for one reason or another, impractical to field.
