No, it's commonly said that he was a failed artist. That's different. It just means that the art he was making wasn't commercially viable at the time.

I guess this is what happens when you're "not economically viable."

If you read accounts of the German Wehrmacht’s march through Belgium in WW1 it’s really incredible. Just precision like only the Germans can accomplish. Their artillery gunners were said to be the best in the world.

He should have tried duct taping a banana to a wall and WW2 could have been avoided

I know a guy who is of German ancestry and he looks almost identical to Hitler and has a shorter mustache, not like Hitlers but close. It’s kinda funny. He doesn’t do it on purpose, it’s just how he looks

Yes, I know that. You know that. But over the years it had been misconstrued by average people that he was a terrible artist.

That’s clearly not the case.

No kidding. The kind of smut those academies were pushing ended up being the contents of the books the Nazis decided to burn.

The stories go that he was great at architectural paintings but terrible at painting people. I don't know shite about art, but his paintings of people look decent to me?
