Hitler Youth at a book burning bonfire
HJ modeled itself after the organization of the
military with squads and platoons.
What did HJ members learn
about?
► The
Hitler Youth
intended to train
future "Aryan
supermen" and future
soldiers who would
faithfully serve the
Third Reich.
More “learning”…
► Youths
in HJ camps
learned to use
weapons, built up
their physical
strength, learned war
strategies, and were
indoctrinated in antiSemitism.
Older members of the Hitler Youth throw mock grenades
during a sports festival. June 1936.
Uniforms
►
Members of the Hitler
Youth wore paramiltiary
uniforms very similar to
the Nazi Party, and the
organization used a
system of Nazi ranks
similar to the ranks and
insignia of the SS.
League of German Girls

►
►
"Every girl belongs to us" states this League
of German Maidens poster
Young German women
were indoctrinated with
the values of obedience,
duty, self-sacrifice,
discipline and physical
self-control.
The goal of girls in the HJ
was to prepare women
for motherhood and raise
children who would be
educated in the ways of
National Socialism.
They were indoctrinated
with Aryan "racial pride"
and told to avoid any
contact with Jews.
What techniques did the Nazis
use that still are used today?

savings disappearing
Logical Fallacy today

gun-control legislation.

the twentieth century have passed
gun-control legislation.

fascist.
Slippery Slope Fallacy
Nazi Slippery Slope

we don’t invade other countries we will
seem weak
► If we seem weak then other countries will
try to attack us again.
► We must attack all neighboring nations to
protect our fatherland
Slippery Slope Today
• If Congress passes legislation limiting
the availability of automatic weapons,
America will slide down a slippery
slope which will ultimately result in the
banning of all guns, the destruction of
the Constitution, and a totalitarian
police state.
