I highly doubt that Hitler was a genius. Ever read Mein Kempt? It is the ravings of a true madman. The way he came to his "conclusions" was illogical and stemmed from racism and a bad self esteem. He suffered from megalomania and was called dangerously psychotic by a higher ranking officer. The officer recommended that Hitler never be given any sort of power.
He was crafty sure. Germany was a country that had been devastated by WWI and this led to a broken down and easily manipulated people. Here comes a smooth talking and slightly psychotic con man. The people of Germany fell for his ruse and gave him the power.
Also Hitler had nothing to do with the things you mentioned above. It was Josef Mengele who performed and ordered the atrocities that did indeed move along medical science. But that was not intentional. The man was a butcher who merely loved to torture and anything new that was discovered was really accidental. The Nazis had no desire to cure diseases only to inflict pain, and anguish, and death.
I'd say that merely making a difference between people based on the color of their skin or religion is incredibly-sorry to use the word- stupid. People should be judged on their actions and not something else.
That being said, I think it's also human nature to oppose that which is different. I highly doubt that there'd be this much struggles and race-related issues if it were otherwise.
I guess it all comes down to transferrance. If someone hurts you or rejects you then you tend to stay clear of anyone that reminds you of that person. Its just a shame that Hitler went a bit too far and tried to kill them instead.
i wouldn't vote for obama but you don't kill someone for being different.
Well that's how they want to picture their world Obama gone and white to rule the country and I can tell you that they see it very differently what people look like
that's how alot of wars get started just because people are different geez get over it people we can do better
chowdollas that's what they want its obvious they want Obama gone and start a war with black people and if that happens it could be the end of black America if everything works out their way
but it didn't happen so your safe and who ever wins hope they make America better place to live with stronger economy.
There will always be a few Nazis out there, just like there will always be a few Commies out there... But they're too much a minority to make any difference in the US...
You'd be surprised to know exactly how many Neo-Nazis or KKK members there actually are... BUT there are WAYYY more Latino or Black gangs out there. You will NEVER end racism in America. It's a way of life for gang-members. I don't like all the fighting, but sometimes it's the only way to get through to some people. As long as they are not killing each other (which isn't the case in most instances), I don't have a problem with any gang/Klan.
yes but hitler had to be smart in order to be the leader of the nazi party. He also had to be smart to become the leader of his country... And ya he was a psycho path, but its been scientifically proven that most psycho paths, and serial killers are smarter than most people. You couldn't see many of us be able to see how to get away with killing millions of jews while getting away with it for a while... I'd have to say thats kinda hard
