Hitler was a great guy and more people should get to know who he really was.

Yeah, Hitler was a great guy if you want your country to be utterly destroyed by an idiot who was obsessed with a fantasy of "Jews destroying Europe".

Hitler:

  • said that Germany should never again get involved in a two front war;
  • immediately got Germany involved in a two-front war;
  • said that he wanted to destroy Communism;
  • handed eastern Europe to the Communists;
  • said that Germany should never get into a war against America;
  • immediately declared war on America after Pearl Harbour;
  • believed that he was sent by "Providence" (God) to save Germany;
  • destroyed Germany so badly that it was split into two, and only by the grace of the Americans, French and British it wasn't split into even more pieces;
  • thought that old Germanic and Norse myths were rubbish, but surrounded himself with nutcases and loons who thought that the old pagan myths were true;
  • played the Nazi leadership against each other so that they were constantly undermining each others' goals;
  • had a massive temper-tantrum on German's defeat, which was caused by his over-reaching ambition and incompetence, and ordered for Germany to be utterly destroyed, every city, every town, every farm was to be razed to the ground, every bridge destroyed so that Germans would be pushed into the Dark Ages (Albert Speer countermanded this order).

Hitler took credit for the economic improvements done by the Wiemar republic (for example, it was them, not the Nazis, who started the autobahns -- Hitler just swept in and stole the credit). Once he started running the economy, he destroyed it. For years, the only thing keeping Germany going was the wealth and literal slave labour he was able to get from the war. Had the war ended, and those sources of cheap labour and wealth had dried up, the German economy would have collapsed.

He was an idiot and a boob, he believed in pure nonsense and was incompetent at running the country. Even in his love-life he was a freak: nobody knows what, exactly, but he was so perverted that he drove the love of his life to suicide. Eva Brown must have had balls of steel to stay with him -- or maybe she shared his kink.

Lmao. These claims are so silly and wrong. You obviously just copy and pasted some conservative or liberal screed.

Oh, I'm sorry, did Germany win WW2, and eastern Europe didn't really get stuck under the control of the USSR for forty years? My mistake.
