Believe it or not, hitler was a person like you and me. he even was a vegetarian. we like to use hitler as the epitome of evil, however he is just a showcase of what every individual human is capable of. he is not special in any sense. that's what we must never forget and that's what every individual has to come to terms with and fight against so they don't become like that.
if we do not accept that each and everyone "could" become like that, we severely cripple our capacity to prevent that from happening. cause you won't fight something that you don't think exists.
after all it was not hitler alone. it was an entire nation (incidentally the nation i live in today) that ended up doing unspeakably horrible things. and i see in the times of corona, how simply you can push people in that directly. believe me we're now again at a point, where it does not take a lot to push people over the edge and treat those so called "cofidiots" like nazis treated the jews. you my think i'm exaggerating but i'm not. this is litterally how that thing hitler did began.

Most people compartmentalize morality.
Don't be abusing dogs or children, but here eat this cow that lived in a torturous prison all it's life where it was doomed to be killed, just because it's a cow. (sounds scarily similar to an internment camp doesn't it?)
Logically it makes no sense to have the double standard, but then humans are rarely logical.
But you have to be illogical in that respect, you have to have at least some double standards to continue your existence.
Humans can't survive on sunlight and water alone, you have to kill something and eat it, be it a plant, animal, or fungi, and do to our complex nutrition requirements to stay healthy, usually all 3. Now if you had zero double standards, you would have to apply the same rule to yourself as you would for what you eat, but that would be very bad for your survival to think that way.
Most people are as bad as he is, and the only reason his stupidity got him into more trouble than other people, is because he had backers and a lot of power as a result, so his stupid ideas were actually employed for a time (you should hear the idiot garbage social plans that spews from most people's mouths, good thing they have no power)
Hitler's ideas were harmful to humans, he implimented some of those ideas on humans, so he was stopped by humans, it's that simple.
The lesson here is don't elevate anyone with stupid ideas that could cause you or your peers harm. Hitler would have been either harmless or far less destructive had people not given him so much power.
Everyone calls him a monster, and fair, but so are all those who cheered him on, if not more so.

No. People are not cartoon characters made up of "pure evil." I'm so sick of people making this stupid point. What Hitler did was awful, but far from the worst human being in history. He doesn't even crack the top ten worst killers in history. Mao Zedong killed like three times as many people as Hitler, and that was due directly to his own actions, not indirectly like with Hitler. Genghis Khan also killed more people in history. And "bloody" Queen Mary came almost as close. People who overhype Hitler and the Nazis know NOTHING about history. They were just the most RECENT in a long list of genocidal regimes throughout mankind.
Point is, Adolf Hitler was still a human being, and not some cartoon supervillain like Skeletor. All human beings are capable of great compassion as well as great destruction. When you dehumanize people, you lose sight of not only what they're capable of, but what LEAD THEM to becoming the monsters of history they're known as.
This is exactly WHY you don't forget your history, or reduce human beings to icons of "pure evil." A Star Wars actress tried to point this out and assholes got her fired for it. But hey, we're ALREADY repeating World War II as we speak. And yeah, it's coming from the radical left.Things aren't like the movies where the "bad guy" is pure evil and the living incarnation of the devil. In real life things aren't binary. They're on a scale with layers on top of that. It's a lot more complex than "good" and "bad." Hitler did terrible things and that makes him a terrible person, of course, but I don't think it should be surprising that not every aspect of him was demonic. He never would have gotten to as high a position as he did if people didn't at least see something in him they liked.
The moust horrible dictator whas Stalin, comparing whit Hitler who whas a military person who love his country and want the best for Germany, Stalin is a real devin, stol money, make crimes even afther he grow up in a religios family, whas very violent, let his own kids die one in nazy jail and other one by alchool.
From what i read from his book, Hitler seem to meet, let say not the best people for him, having a dificul life will he try to be succesful as an arhitect and become some how an artist he meet a lot of communist in thous time and that i think influenced his vision on jews and communist.
We have a saying "give the man the power, so you can see how he truly is"Not at all. If you read Mein Kampf, you'll be struck by two things- first, that Hitler was a lousy writer, and two, that his hatred of non-Aryans stemmed from things he thought they did. Even HE didn't think dogs or deer wrecked the German economy.
So, he loved animals, but this human being didn't mind making war on the animals called human beings, he being a human himself. He hated hunting animals but had no problem with hunting humans, invading countries.
Yeah, but maybe it helped him forget what a horrible person he was, even if it was just for a few minutes.
Just because someone is a terrible person, doesn't mean they don't have some redeeming qualities.
Hitler was
Authoritarian
Control Freak
Vegetarian
Environmentalist
Socialist
Ecologist
Intolerant
He is much closer to Leftist extremists of today than anyone on the right wingNot really. And actually according to the documentary I saw dude was having sex with his neice. Dude was crazy.
These aren't candid photographs. They are deliberate scenes to help soften his image and win over the people.
He mainly just hated the Jews and anybody standing in Germany’s way to world domination
He was terrible to humans only, animals are much simpler creatures, they don't create the conflicts and ideas that sparked his Grand plan in the first place
And was vegetarian. People only talk about the bad stuff. Jeez.
No, it kinda makes more sense now. Thanks for the info
Hitler wasn't that bad. There was this saying "The victorious will always write history" and this also goes on Hitler's history which was wrote by the Americans.
Why would any of that be weird?
People are multifaceted
No. Of course he loved them
Probably because he didn’t feel threatened by them
