Strange as it may seem, I never heard Manson mention Nietzsche or Hitler. Again I was away from the family for three months when Charlie laid out his take on Helter Skelter. I've heard that magazines were found in a bus we left in the desert, all having articles on Hitler and even Rommel and his Desert Corps.
I faintly remember those magazines. Family members who were close to Manson during the months I was gone, knew his views on Hitler all too well. I did hear about that.
I never heard Manson give credit to anyone for his philosophy. I have wondered if Manson got his dune buggy escape-to-the-desert idea from Rommel, the German field Marshall of WWII. And Manson must have gotten the idea of those swastikas the family members carved on their foreheads during their trial from Hitler.
That really surprised me as I watched from a distance in a Texas jail. Q: Well, do you know about Manson's view concerning Nietzsche and Hitler? Supposedly, Manson studied Nietzsche, and like Hitler, he ... more.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
