@d @Fe₂🦀₃⋅H₂🦀 I concede on the military aspect. The only point I still have some doubts about is Hitler himself. Was he a hindrance to the war efforts or a help? He is often portrayed as this unhinged "nein nein nein nein" guy with an obsession for big guns. That obsession has made him ignore techs like jet-engine for too long. (IIRC) Whats your opinion on the man himself? Would someone else have lead better?

They portray everyone who gets in their way as stupid, evil, genocidal nutcases who are secretly gay. They did it to every Roman emperor who burnt down Judea. They did it to every Pagan king who threw them out of Europe. They did it to every Christian king who threw them out of Europe. They did it to Bismark. They did it to Hitler. They did it to Saddam. They did it to Gaddafi. They did it to Assad. They did it to every Muslim leader from the 1900's to now. Now they're doing it to Putin. You don't even have to be anti-Semitic, just in the way. Putin isn't even strictly opposed to the Jews, he's just in the way right now and they makes him the devil.

I don't think another leader in Germany would've substantially changed things. Details of the war might have been different but Germany still would've lost, and still would've suffered horrible treatment by the Allies post-war. What needed to change was American leadership. But international jewry was busy assassinating populists like Huey Long to make sure that didn't happen.

I think that if Hitler had taken a more decentralised approach and positioned himself more as a general leader for White people he might have lost Germany but won the overall war. If the Nazi's had been a worldwide "terrorist" faction like the Taliban, instead of a local Nationalist group forced into being a global power they would have lasted through the war and ultimately overthrew the Jews in power. That's basically what the Arab leaders did post war and despite the many problems the middle east has today, at least the people in those countries are gaining ground and aren't afraid to fight back. Of course, to be fair to Hitler, it would have been pretty difficult to predict how things were gonna go during his time. He did his best with the information he had available and even doing that you can still fail miserably.
