Editor of the Daily Caller and @FrontPorchRepub shares an essay lamenting that the Nazis lost WWII: https://twitter.com/j_arthur_bloom/status/569142125625016320 … cc @thegoldfarb
@j_arthur_bloom ...which in this case is just a stand in for the counterfactual where the nazis won the war. Good effort at obfuscation, tho

@jessespafford but nowhere does he say that counterfactual would be better -
@j_arthur_bloom It's implied by the direct comparison of the "speculative fiction" counterfactual with the USSR's real world victory. -
@j_arthur_bloom He explicitly presents the view that [the nazis having won the war would be a bad thing] so as to imply it is incorrect. -
@jessespafford no, he says ‘this is clearly a popular understanding, based on these books, here’s why there are problems with it' -
@j_arthur_bloom that popular understanding is that it is better that the nazis lost to the USSR than had they triumphed. He critiques it
