00:05

jour brought to you by an iron fist Let's face

00:08

it you can't cow the masses with a fist made

00:10

of well say mashed potatoes Yeah that really wouldn't work

00:14

You think lenin ruled russia with mashed potato Well they

00:18

make a lot of potatoes in russia but different kind

00:20

of face is the worst dictator of all time Adolf

00:23

hitler josef stalin animated musical coming to broadway soon yet

00:29

heavy subject So we're just going to move on to

00:32

question Robert would like to rewrite sentence twelve to create

00:38

a more sophisticated conclusion which of the following is the

00:42

best revision and hear the potential answers with all right

00:47

Well the original concluding sentence is no good because it

00:50

doesn't refer to the thesis Hitler and stalin were both

00:54

very brutal dictators but they committed evil in different ways

00:58

If we don't do this then we've done a pretty

01:00

sloppy job of wrapping up the essay and there's nothing

01:03

sophisticated about something that's well sloppily rap a gets unsophisticated

01:07

when it starts talking about the point Well if the

01:10

sentences written well we don't have to tell the reader

01:13

what the point is it'll be obvious Option c is

01:16

also trying to point out to the point again pretty

01:18

unsophisticated Hitler and stalin were different in some ways but

01:22

the main point is that they were both equally brutal

01:24

dictators Yeah well man we can't take these out I

01:27

will be is awkward and we've made our feelings regarding

01:30

awkwardness and answer elimination Well known here already right It

01:34

was uplifting So let's move on Yeah the correct answer

01:37

is d despite their differences hitler and stalin equally deserve

01:41

the title of the most brutal dictator in modern history

01:44

it's structured well and it makes the thesis clear to

01:46

boot Looks like the contest for mills Brutal dictator is 00:01:49.243 --> [endTime] a tie Congratulations yes coming to broadway soon
