True, the speeches are very motivating hence why they are so forbidden and hidden away in German and other German-speaking countries. Like you said, the nuances are hard to translate and so much is misquoted or badly translated - many times on purpose. On many occasions, I've caught people posting a quote from Hitler, let's say from his book. I get out my 1943 original and look it up. It's wrong, I point out how it's wrong, take a picture of the passage and post it, ask them exactly what page they are getting their quote from, and then, like magic, the jew who posted it disappears from the forum.

Holy shit, I can see a series of massively popular posts there. You should consider doing one or two passages per week. Hell, maybe start your own sub. I'd love to see something like that, I'm sure many goats would too.

What's funnier is when other Germans come in the thread and agree with my translation. It's pointing out the bald-faced lying. Believe me, a lot of those Hitler quotes that might seem off to you, those making some claims he was a plant, or against his people, etc. are misconstrued and translated loosely and/or are taken out of context.
It's too bad, I haven't screencapped the stuff, but next time it happens I'll be sure to post it here.
