What do you think about Hitler

[Gimgak]

Jesus, can't believe anyone voted as him being "good", never thought those two words can go in a sentence. I'm Polish and yeah... I hope that bastard rots in hell for ever

You guys do know that he was bi-sexual and Jewish, yet he felt the Germans should reign over the homosexuals and Jews. He was just taking his own death-causing medicine.

I've heard by my history teacher that Hitler was so crazy that he planned to destroy the whole world by digging a hole all the way down to the core of the Earth and place an atomic bomb. Actually, my history teacher made it seem like Hitler was terribly smart the way he said it.

I don't think Hitler ever said that. Your teacher is pulling things out of the sky, sorry to say. Hitler wanted Germany to prosper, not destroy the world.
Hitler couldn't have even known the possibilities of an Atomic Bomb. The atomic bomb was dropped in August 1945, Hitler died in April( or beginning of May, can't remember, I believe it was April 29th or 30th ).
You can tell your teacher he's wrong and has no idea what he's talking about, good feeling to outsmart the teacher.

He wasn't Jewish. Hitler was very fond of Martin Luther, the founder of Lutheranism ( didn't like Jews ), and he refers to very Christian things in Mein Kampf. Most say he kept Catholic tradition and incorporated some Lutheranism, but the main idea is that he was some type of Christian.

As for his sexuality, he was supposedly involved with very young female children, and there's no reports on homosexuality other than rumors, and we all know he was married to Braun.. I'd like to think he was just a very sexual man, like Mao Tse-Tung, etc.

And again, his parents were not Jewish, Hitler was raised a Catholic. Not sure where you guys are getting all of this from 😛

correct there Irviding, the only relation Hitler has to jews is when he was young he actually had to go to a poor house because he left the house and ran out of money. the poor house was actually run by jews. so he tried to destroy the very people that took him in and fed him when he was young... weird lol

Well, i am sure some one has already made this argument. But, w/e

Well, of course Hitler was evil. But, he did help Germany greatly. The Germans were dying in the streets everyday do to the poor economy and being ravaged by the vengeful Europeans after WWI. They wanted to hurt Germany so bad. That they created a perfect country for Hitler to gain power. So if you are going to blame anyone for Hitlers rise to power it would be the other European countries. who let him gain the power.

Anyway he did raise germany out of poverty into a very wealthy and strong nation. So you have to give him credit for that. Otherwise he should be tortured forever and ever. Never to be allowed to feel happiness. He was a sick and demented man that did do one good thing and that was help germany at the cost of the world.

yes, it can also be said that because he failed and germany was once again poor and completely ruined it helped them because america helped rebuild it, so his failure ended up being a lot better for Germany. I don't see though how murdering jews would give Germany power, he was bound for failure in the future, he had to many enemies

He wasn't a great leader at all, and he is a terrible human being.

He may have been a good military commander, but in terms of being a ' great leader ', no he was not.
He was a fascist dictator who utilized propaganda and practically hypnotized his people and established himself a cult of personality so no one would try to purge him from leadership. The man was insane.

Hes was a great military commander, which is part of what i ment when i said great leader. Leadership is mesured in diffrent ways by diffrent people just as love is and in the end you can not turn a blind eye to all of what he acomplished no matter if what he did acomplish was bad nor if the way he went about acomplishing it was quationable or bad. You have to look at the basic picture and remove all the other variables. Iam not trying to argue wether he was or was not a terraible person, i think mostly everyone would think he is. All iam trying to say is that that aside, along with the other varaibles removed, he was and still is a great military commander and a great leader.

Again, his military decisions weren't so good. He had a great team of advisors. And about him being a good leader, that's also a bunch of bull. If you consider a fascist dictator who murdered political dissidents a great leader, then I don't know what to think 😛

The main point that you keep missing is that he was a good leader, he took Germany out of a depression when no one else could and made them the most powerful country in Europe.

Also back to your earlier post, Hitler did know about Atomic weapons as Eienstien had said about nuclear things back in like 1900 - 1920. The rockets he was making (V2) proved that if they could they probably would have made a nuclear bomb before America, especially if they had Eienstien before he moved to America.

And the main point you keep missing is that I said he wouldn't have known the full potential of an atomic bomb.

That just takes a backseat though, Hitler didn't want to put an Atomic Bomb into the core of the earth. It's just your teacher trying to use hyperbole to keep you interested.

 

[Van1lla ™]

I dont think anyone knew the potential, maybe a small scale one but nothing like todays, im sure he knew what it could do and the damage and how strong he would be with them but he didnt have the time, money and resources to build one. Plus it didnt help that the main man who knew everything about it moved to America in the 1930's.

 

[Club-Gamer]

the Germans were a lot closer to building a atomic bomb then most like to realize. That was the main reason why we built ours. To use it one Germany before the could on us.

Anyone who thinks Hitler is good, Is mental.

 

[DarkRaven]

My views on Hitler are similar to those on Mussolini. Both had the potential to do extraordinary good, and had amazing leadership qualities, yet both (Hitler for the most part) did extraordinary damage. I mean they were both amazing charismatic leaders who managed to pull both of their countries out of poverty and make them superpowers, but what they did with that power was wrong.

I'd actually like to point you to a blog post about World War One and Two that is extremely interesting: http://www.fff.org/blog/jghblog2008-07-29.asp.

Horrible guy

Horrible guy

But what are you basing this on? Yes he murdered people and was responsible for that but he did much more, better things for Germany. It's always the negative aspects that are posted about, yet he was a mastermind. He brought Germany from it's depression and made it into one of the strongest countries in the world today.

Hehe..

Hitler isn't the reason that Germany is a strong country now, and FYI it isn't very strong at all. It's maybe #10 or so on the powerful countries list. After WWII, Germany was a total destroyed mess. It took rebuilding and other types of reconstruction. Hitler didn't make it a ' world power ' ( it isn't a world power anyway )

He brought it out of it's depression at the time, though, did he not?

Does that really matter? The man also destined his country to fail and put them on a road to destruction when starting war with World Superpowers.

He's evil. I don't like him. It's just stupid what he did to the Jews. <_<

 

[JG914]

In many ways, he was an innovator to not only Germany, but to the rest of the world. Hitler fought for worker's rights, he introduced the concept of overtime and paid leaves, etc, things which are still benefiting us to this day and to which we owe him some props. That being said, his social reform only underscored what a piece of work he was. While he fought for worker's rights, he sought to have an entire race eradicated. In trying to make Germany a better place to live for some, he sent people to living hells where they were gassed, forced to dig their own graves before they were shot, where they had horrible experiments performed on them, were they were starved, etc. This all got the rubber stamp from Hitler and needless to say, NOTHING can make up for genocide, so regardless of his achievements, he certainly deserves the "bad" vote he's gotten from me. He belongs in the deepest circle of hell (if there is such a place.), no question.

Edit: Also, just to be fair to Hitler, I have to mention that he did some great things with regards to cutting the unemployment rate. That being said, it's undermined by the fact he ordered people to work, lest they be sent to concentration camps.
