Admiring Hitler would be like welcoming cancer into your life!

WTF!!!!...who would look up to this fool??...Only racist assholes...i dont have time for this question..lol

I believe there ARE certain people who would admire him if that's what you mean.

If you're asking if I think he's someone to admire, I have no intentions of becoming a dictator with a tiny mustache and a desire to rid the world of Jews, homosexuals, feminists and non-Aryans, so NO.

I tend to play devils advocate, even if I agree with the consensus, and I have to admit that it's very hard here. The people he killed is obviously inexcusable, and he will never be separated from his crime. And for damn good reason! However, he did take a decimated country, and turn it around for its inhabitants, making life livable again. The problem is that he then went on with courses of action that can only be attributed to mental illness. There are parts that can be admired, but beyond that, he is merely a lesson in how easy it if for evil to sneak into a mans mind. And it should scare the daylights out of every one of us that a man, trying his best to do what is right, could commit such atrocities. I don't think many people are brave enough to see the human being that exists not so deep down inside a monster. Kind of puts ad hominen attacks against OUR politicians into a rather interesting light.

And before I get accused of being to soft on a monster, I would not hesitate to put a bullet in Hitlers brain. Sure, I'm sure he thought what he was doing was right, and in a way it would be sad to end the life of a human being, even a monster. But all human lives have equal value, which makes the math of killing Hitler extremely easy. If torturing him could save a few more, go right ahead.

you dont have to be sick in the head to admire hitler. if you can dismiss the fact that he killed millions of people then he can be admired. in childhood he had nothing then became the head of a nation. hitler did some great tthings as a person. the only thing that took him down the wrong path was killing 6 millon people. you cant get mad at him for starting a war. he was just trying to be like Alexander the Great

I think Adolf is one of the least admirable that the human race has ever produced...

Nah, I'd have to be a Republican.

Had he died in 1938, before he decided that megalomania was a good thing, and that certain people had inferior genes, yes. He took a bankrupt country , turned it around and made it a growing prosperous one in the world.

Unfortunately, he didn't die before '39.

I had to do a report when I was younger on Hitler & they say that if his ideas weren't so twisted he would of won that war hands down. He was actually very bright but he used it all the wrong way!

No. Hitler may be seen in good lights for wanting to change the world, but the moment he became racist and decided to kill everybody, he kinda got lost on me... though Marxist thought does sound *good* on paper.

trick question.
i admire his talent on writing and public speaking, his ability to control an entire nation and make it grow and become so powerful,and i admire his intelligence.

i learned in advanced history class that he had "issues", his mind didn't work right. Also, decisions to make the concentration camps and stuff were mostly made by the bastards who worked with/for him, he was just the face. And i'd like to point out that Stalin was worst because he destroyed his own people and he did it because they opposed him-- HE had no mantal problems.

So i'm not trying to justify Hitler. he was a horrible, horrible, racist man who did alot of evil in this world and who deserved death and no respect whatsoever. I admire his talents, but never could admire his actions. I could never look up to him.

Demogogues pandering to fear can move people to irrational deeds.

Hitler is the last person to be admired as were Himmler, Goebbels, Goering, and the rest of the inner circle. Those animals deserved death.
However, there were a few Nazis who you can admire: Werhner Von Braun, Col Stauffenberg, Ferdinand Porsche, Erwin Rommel, and a few others.
Yes they were Nazis, but they weren't obsessed with Hitler, instead they devoted their time to bettering Germany as a nation.
Von Braun created the first ICMB and helped give America NASA. Stauffenberg engaged in the last of 15 known German attempts on Hitler's life inorder to save Germany from ruin. Porsche produced some of the best tanks and cars Germany or the world has ever seen. Rommel was a brilliant and excellent commander in North Africa admired and respected by the Americans and British.
Not all Nazis were bad. It's just the bad ones who hear about more.

Interesting...

Know that I'm not supporting nor defending the Nazis. Hitler and his inner cirle as well as the Gestapo deserved death every one of them. But not all Nazis were Jew hating war hungry pyscopaths. Nazi scientists, for instance, supported the Nazis only because that's where they got their funding. It was Nazi scientists that found the link between smoking and lung cancer. Nazi scientists were the ones who first made the jet engine and jet fighter. History tells you the evils of the Nazis but you don't hear about the technological and scientific advances made during their rule. It's something to look up and read sometime. You can't go a day in your life without seeing something good that came out of Nazi Germany.

Mmmm well that is because Nazi scientists were immoral in their experiments... yea... a lot of knowledge was uncovered that way but it's not the greatest thing for our children to hear about, lest their priorities and morals too become perverse.

Granted yes their were scientists who did barbaric and inhumane experiments on civilians and they should be ignored. However some texts do teach about von Braun and his contributions to NASA. Why can't some of these other scientists get the credit they deserve? Like the ones who discovered the link between smoking and lung cancer, the ones who developed the jet engine, the jet fighter, etc. Why are they ignored?

It is ignored because people don't want to think their life is better now because of his policies.

You're right. People don't want to think that so much of their world came from a man, from a group, as evil and destructive as the Nazis. But we can not deny that our life (scientifically, technologically, mathematically, transportaion wise, etc) is better because of Nazi scientists and engineers. We also can not deny, though people do, America's military might is what it is because of Nazi Germany.

The entire worlds military and civilian use of that military knowledge was put on a mega dose of steriods by the war. Throughout human history it is war that has been the catalyst for great leaps in human invention and knowledge.

An old saying;

Smooth seas don't make a skillful sailor.

Very true. Wars cause greap leaps forward in society. WW2, in my opinoin, caused the greatest leap forward out of any war. 10 years of war can advance a society more than 100 years of peace.

The only people who would admire Hitler is Satan and his emps.

Satan's second-hand man ;)

Here is an example of freedom of speech.
Castro, Mao, Stalin; all modern day destroyers of humanity. Don't forget the Kyhmer Rouge, Biafra/Congo, and the elimination of DDT.

Hello Kitty has a sick mind.

NO FREAKING WAY.

just who in the fk looks up to hitler here???

His name is Matt Wayne, since he is deactivated, I guess I can say his name.

Deactivated? I hope that's permanent!

If I dreamed of becoming a genocidal maniac...then yes.

God no I dont think hitler would be someone to admire, unless your crazy or insane. I think only the seriously crazy and insane people admire him

well you really have to think about it...I mean you have to admit...he was bloody brilliant...not the things he did(far from it)...but he was pretty freaking smart...you have to give him that....as for the things he did? hell no...I'd rather cut my arms off than admire him for that...

Live Long and Prosper

What Drugs are you on ? Dude this low life of human killed over 23 million people. not counting the 6 million. All for what living space Please

In a way kinda
But just simply the drive it took to pull it all together
not a bit of what he did after that though

Please tell me what drive was that ?? I am a little lost here, could it have been a weak goverment, no jobs, hyper-inflataion, the Tretay or the fact Germany was just too small

I mean drive as just another word for willpower
He did manage to get a whole country going,
no matter how small that country happened to be.

Please take look of the map of 1935 Germany was no small country

I thought you meant you believed it was small so i was going off of that
