Does Bob think the Reich was scientifically backwards? The Tiger tanks were overengineered but the were bloody good tanks. they had early night vision, early ICBM's, early jet fightters. Sure they were ass backwards innsome regards (AtOMs aRe jeWish!). But WW2 was 'who could out novel the other guy' the Nazis would have won. Funnily enough though the Nazis advanced science lost against waves of screaming yokels armed with near WW1 era rifles, hordes of pissed off slavs with bolt actions and tanks that were essentially designed to roll out, hammer a few Km down the road, get off two shots and then die. Because WW2 was a game of 'lets set our economies on fire and see who runs out of fuel first jä?'
Science doesn't mean shit if you can't fix the plumbing, electric or heating with it. I'm a genetics student. Right now one of my friends doing PhD is considering making super mice clones. Neither I nor he can fix our heating. I sat staring at my new electric thermostat like a fucking retard for two hours because I couldn't get it to work. I had to call a gas fitter friend who is coming around tomorrow for a BBQ and get him to explaij it to me. If we run out of gas fitters, electricians, plumbers, bin men or truckers our civilisation would literally stop existing overnight. Bob hates the people that keep everyone else alive. Maybe Bob just wants to die?
