Hitler was a ****. He supported the massacre of millions. Having not seen the actual presentation, I can't tell if the teacher and the student are ****s as well.
He did much more than support the massacre of millions. He initiated, ordered, incentivized, enabled, demanded and justified it. He then lost the war and was justly demonized for it. Had Stalin been on the losing side he would have been demonized far above Hitler. They were both evil.

If you believe that, then you have bought the lies hook, line and sinker. At best he was no better than an actor doing what Krupp and the rest of the industrialists wanted him to do. Every faction was out for their pound of flesh and got it. When you dig into the orders for camps you find the authorizations and orders at least 3 levels below the main man. Not to mention groups like the Thules whose influence seeped into most of the other organizations. To many things don't add up for him to have been some monster that conceived and implemented so many programs. It's literally too much for one man to have done.The greater evil is that day to day people commited the majority of the atrocities and the world gladly looked the other way and bought off that it was all on man's fault.

“Civilization is a thin veneer.” I’ve seen it with my own eyes.

It’s crazy to believe one person is able to control all the others. They have to want to participate and most do when law and order is lost. We can see it happening in real time right now, albeit not so extreme yet but it’s coming. Normalcy bias and monetary sleight of hand are keeping the lid on for now but it can’t last.

Problem is Stalin & Mao killed as many or more and no one remembers.



Hitler was little man that should never have risen to his place in history. He stated what his goals were in Mein Kampf, while he was in prison. Sad fact is that France, Germany, and the US caused WW2 by their action at the end of WW1
What was their action at end of WWI?

WWI was a very big cause of WWII. WWI led to depressions in Germany, Italy, the Soviet Union, and many more places which in turn caused powerful people to rise in many differtent countries. These countries in which a person of power rose each had some part in the start of WWII.

Many times when talking about the wars I use the description WW1-A and WW1-B.
