Winners write the history books

Everyone should watch the documentary "The greatest story never told" which exposes a lot of the lies and misconceptions about Hitler and World War 2 using actual evidence

Good point. I'll bet if you went to any college campus 90%+ of the students could tell you how and why Hitler is the most evil person ever. Around 10% might be able to tell you who Stalin was but they'd have no idea he ever killed anyone. As for Mao, I'd be shocked if more than about 3% had ever heard of him.
Lol no

Everyone knows about Stalin. You might have a point with Mao but it's way higher than 3%.

I went to school with literal self-professed Stalinist and Maoists. They knew and they didn't care, for whatever reason.

The cold hard truth:

Hitler tried to genocide a race of people to death and conquer civilized Europe. He attacked countries that people care about and killed people that people care about. He faught a war against France and England and America and tried to kill the Jews. He was also a ruthless genius when it came to mass brainwashing and rallies.

He and his 1940s Germany including his advisory board represent the absolute pinnacle of the human ability for evil. Cunning, brutal, sociopathic, brilliant machine of perfect death.

Stalin killed a majority of Russian and Eastern European peasants that no one cares about and he was technically on the winning side of the war and didn't actively fight western Europe and America.

This is absolutely 100% not true. I think you'd be amazed at the amount of people that don't know anything about the atrocities committed by Stalin. They'd barely know who he is at all other than a Russian dude with a mustache.

Not really. Quite clearly Hitler didn't seek another world war and desperately wanted to avert any outbreak of hostilities with Britain or France, but time and time again Hitler was more than willing to risk war to achieve his geopolitical ambitions. To suggest otherwise is beyond ignorant and delusional.

The ultimate outbreak of war with Poland stemmed from Germany's desire to bring Danzig back into the Reich and to establish a land highway in which Germany could exercise free flow of personnel and goods to and from East Prussia (possibly with the ultimate aim of reincorporating all of the Polish corridor in time). That was the primary geopolitical issue that created the source of conflict between Germany and Poland in 1939. If Hitler desperately wanted to avoid war, he could have held off on acting militarily against Poland. This issue was NOT of urgent national security. Hitler gambled again and this time the British and French had no choice but to call him on it, as the British had already made public commitments to come to Poland's aid (which was stupid of them).

And Hitler took very similar gambles over the Austrian issue in March and the Czech crisis in September of 1938.

While not seeking a military clash with Britain and France, Hitler was far from doing "everything he could to prevent war."

Because Stalin killed 3 times as many innocents than Hitler did.

Mao actually came up in conversation at work - my company did work in Nepal a few years ago when the Maoist revolutionaries were staging their hissy fit and I happened to mention what working conditions were for us at the time. Our new college hire had never heard of Chairman Mao and asked me what a maoist was.

Interesting way of looking at it. Factually incorrect on every level, but interesting.

I never heard of this final political testament until recently.

Last Letter from Hitler:
The POLITICAL TESTAMENT

Since 1914, when as a volunteer, I made my modest contribution in the World War which was forced upon the Reich, over thirty years have passed.

In these three decades, only love for my people and loyalty to my people have guided me in all my thoughts, actions, and life. They gave me the strength to make the most difficult decisions, such as no mortal has yet had to face. I have exhausted my time, my working energy, and my health in these three decades.

It is untrue that I or anybody else in Germany wanted war in 1939. It was desired and instigated exclusively by those international statesmen who were either of Jewish origin or working for Jewish interests. I have made so many offers for the reduction and elimination of armaments, which posterity cannot explain away for all eternity, that the responsibility for the outbreak of this war cannot rest on me. Furthermore, I never desired that after the first terrible World War a second war should arise against England or even against America. Centuries may pass, but out of the ruins of our cities and monuments of art there will arise anew the hatred for the people who alone are ultimately responsible: International Jewry and its helpers!

As late as three days before the outbreak of the German-Polish War, I proposed to the British Ambassador in Berlin a solution for the German-Polish problem -- similar to the problem of the Saar area, under international control. This offer cannot be explained away, either. It was only rejected because the responsible circles in English politics wanted the war, partly in the expectation of business advantages, partly driven by propaganda promoted by international Jewry.

But I left no doubt about the fact that if the peoples of Europe were again only regarded as so many packages of stock shares by these international money and finance conspirators, then that race, too, which is the truly guilty party in this murderous struggle would also have to be held to account: the Jews! I further left no doubt that this time we would not permit millions of European children of Aryan descent to die of hunger, nor millions of grown-up men to suffer death, nor hundreds of thousands of women and children to be burned and bombed to death in their cities, without the truly guilty party having to atone for its guilt, even if through more humane means.

After six years of struggle, which in spite of all reverses will go down in history as the most glorious and most courageous manifestation of a people's will to live. I cannot separate myself from the city which is the capital of this Reich. Because our forces are too few to permit any further resistance against the enemy's assaults, and because individual resistance is rendered valueless by blinded and characterless scoundrels, I desire to share the fate that millions of others have taken upon themselves, in that I shall remain in this city. Furthermore, I do not want to fall into the hands of enemies who for the delectation of the hate-riddled masses require a new spectacle promoted by the Jews. Read the Rest Here

Sure, but most students at 4-year universities know Stalin was a POS. To say 90% of college students have no idea Stalin killed anyone is retarded.
