Dismiss what? Fascism is catabolic. They can't build anything. They can only loot until they run out of weak neighbors.
The projections of hyper competence and secret knowledge are part of their branding.
Stop being a fascist apologist.

Small country? They were a highly industrialized, highly educated and still quite materially wealthy colonial power going into the wars. They didn't need to be competent. Enough people went along with them and there was plenty of residual wealth to burn on the war machine.
You don't need to be an architect to burn down a building.
Hur hur. I'd wish people would stop assigning hyper-competence to Nazis. They never were. Hitler was a drug addict and the trains didn't run on time.
Curtis Yarvin, one of the main silicon valley "intellectuals" inspiring Peter Thiel does not seem to understand where the word parliament comes from. He criticizes the royalty of Europe for giving their subjects too much power.
It's like they think they're playing a video game.
No. It is an unneeded waste of resources spent by anti-human perverts.
The actual purpose is to parse surveillance data for the capitalist class.
No. We are not.
With typical capitalist efficiency, the titans of industry are going to boil off half an ocean in an ignorant attempt to simulate a human brain that requires what, about 2 kilowatt-hours of relatively clean chemical energy a day?
Never mind there being no shortage of said brains.

I get what you're trying to get at. But I'm talking inherent developed material wealth of a region. Actual physical infrastructure like rails, mines, factories, universities and everyone with the required education and training to run all of it.
If the victors of the first war received the dividends of that real infrastructure- that matters right up until the moment that they don't anymore.
