re: #73 Nyet

Yes, you’ve said it twice, but my point stands. “Some sort of Hitler” is so catch-all it’s not very meaningful apart from “some fascist dictator”. There were many fascist dictators, but only one Hitler.

A fascist dictator who promoted a nationalistic, militaristic, racist ideology. Lots of European leaders had no trouble enslaving and exterminating civilians en masse, they just tended to do so outside Europe, and they were not the sort of meticulous bean counters who left an incontrovertible paper trail.

Hitler did not act alone or arise in a vacuum.
