    It’s like watching a horror movie. You know the killer is in the basement, yet people go and have a look while the audience knows what’s going to happen. A classic fuck around and find out.

      There is literally nothing I can think of that would make him good in any isolated field. For a long time people held the believe that he was pro environment and animal rights. But he also killed his own dog. People also say that he had a special aura around him. That he was very charming. But those people were likely like trump supporters today. My great grandmother actually got to see him before she fled Germany. She said that there was nothing particularly interesting about him except for the way he speaks maybe.

        The question is still to vague. Obviously all of his politics were the worst. But the way it’s phrased, you’d kinda have to agree he wasn’t ALL bad if, for example, he made a pretty tasty pasta sauce. Like. Not that it’d be relevant. It’s the vagueness of the question that I’m critiquing. Maybe I’m just having an autism moment.

          Nah, it’s deliberately formulated so it can be pulled out of context, misrepresented and cause outrage. And it works.

    He wasn’t “all bad”, he apparently was very good with animals, like his dog Blondie. He was a vegetarian. And that’s probably everything which wasn’t bad. For the rest it’s all completely fucked up bad. No doubt about it.

    Oh and I just remembered he was very good at giving directions. “were do I need to go?” “Take the third reich”

    Related: we’ve all heard the stories of a time traveler going back to kill Hitler before his rise to power. One common theme in almost all those stories is that the attempt fails, that’s why history is as we remember. This morning has me thinking that maybe time travel was involved in a couple of Trump assassination attempts.

    Obviously, Hitler even gave credit to Jim Crow policies as being an inspiration for his generic policies.

    The dixiecrats aren’t ashamed of that, game recognizes game.
