 @d4f294ac oh yeah I'm not familiar with the treaty of Versailles or the weimar republic. Along with that I'm not familiar with the support he had in the west, and that he was able to leverage into power. I'm not familiar with the eugenics programs in the west or Stalin's own Holocaust in Ukraine. 
But you really expect people to have just walked out of the cabbage patch if you want them supporting hitler 
 @cc121fd8 

I don't think that is what I am doing. 
 @d4f294ac then what are you doing? Is defending hitler really the best use of your life right now? This is what everything has led up to for you? I mean I'm old, my wife barely fucks me, but if I summed up my intillectual life to a vague defence of hitler, I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't lead to a lot of second dates. Just saying. 
 Many of our current problems can be traced back to events which took place before, during, and after WW2. It is time to remove the fog of WW2 propaganda. When I was ten years old I had your view, then I dug deeper into history, I would guess you have not. Stalin and Moa were far worse than anything the Germans may have done. NAZI, Hilter, and the Holocaust have been used like a club, to beat us and  to keep us on the plantation. Maybe you should concentrate on stratifying your wife or reading.
