To put a finer historical point on it, the very concept that "the Nazis burned books" is flatly untrue. I say this to emphasize how deeply this false "fact" has seeped into history. Some may have an immediate reaction to this if they just watched the video and saw Nazi officials and members of the SA standing around as books burned, but we need to take a closer look.
The Nazis, recognizing along with many others the corrosive and subversive nature of certain "literature", approved of the voluntary destruction of it. But beyond that, there is no documentation that the NSDAP:
published a list of books to ban
confiscated books
personally destroyed books or commanded their destruction
organized, directed, supported, or even encouraged any groups--such as the GSA--to do so
I never uncovered a single official document or publication from the NSDAP--let alone legislation--regarding the burning of books. All in all, the idea that "Nazis burned books" is about as erroneous and "Trump made everyone wear red hats".
In fact, I turned up the original prewar article about book burning from "The Guardian", and it seems obvious black propaganda by Western warmongers. You can get that link and others along with more discussion in this old post:
up until world war II Germans were the leading experts of history. amazing insights were coming out that country, no way in hell they were burning books.
Also, I think when the NSDAP founded the Ahnenerbe and that group started looking all around the world asking questions like, "Wait--who were the Aryans exactly? And where did they come from? And what what do we find in history when we start tracing back along their path?", and then they started finding answers to those questions, well, somebody somewhere said, "Okay, we gotta shut that shit down!"
Now the whole narrative boils down to "racial supremacists eugenically breeding a race of occult supermen". And people now "know" that for a fact.

The nazis burned books while attempting to rise in power which is why I believe we need to become scribes and download important videos and print or archive every article you see as these will be wiped from the internet the same way it’s impossible to find 9/11 theories o

Right, I think that's an excellent point.
