Source refs: `video:predictive-history-btlwoqwlm9q@transcript:v1#seg-0047`, `video:predictive-history-btlwoqwlm9q@transcript:v1#seg-0048` - model: Hitler's charisma and speeches are treated as instruments for producing unity of will and synchronicity, the mass organization required for modern warfare.
