RE: Another burns to the ground
Or the fact that despite the bad things he did, there were also things in his life that people considered good. He was a human.
I also find it amazing they focus on him when both Stalin and Mao were responsible for the deaths of far more of their own people than Hitler was his.
All three were very bad things. Yet Hitler is the only one people push as being bad and evil.
See, Stalin and Mao are not considered good from what I can tell; however, they are DEFINITELY down played. When people "scale" evil, Hitler is the top and it baffles me. Clearly they have not seen the evil things intentionally committed on others. I think a big part of that were the death camps. Stalin used things like country starvation which did not get nearly the same press. I've seen ONE documentary on the Holodomor genocide.
Granted, the other men's behaviors should not downplay the cruelty and evil that occurred in camps and ghetto's. What I would like to see is people realizing that Hitler should not be the top of an evil scale if you truly look, you can find plenty of others who did worse and more direct. Hitler should not be glorified either. Just as a general conversation, I'd like to see more knowledge on the depths of depravity humans have inflicted on other humans. Hope that makes sense!
