I was pretty sure this post would attract absolutely fucking braindead takes from reich-wingers and enlightened centrists, and here you are
So much for your assumptions. I'm just a person who can see that people aren't black and white, and while Hitler did mostly bad things, no one doesn't have any good qualities.
He basically did only bad things for Germany and the world. From the get go.
Are you aware of what's happening in Germany right now?
We're witnessing the same as with the MAGA movement right now. Millions of people from the ex-GDR chose to elect the far-right extremist AfD into the EU parliament. Millions of them Gen-Zs who were allowed to vote for the first time at the age of 16. They were mobilized by AfDs strong TikTok game and their parents who clapped when refugee homes burned in the 90s.
Most of the people of east Germany are as lost as MAGAs when it comes to reintegration into society. Most of the 25M of people with immigration background are way better integrated.
One of the key figures of the AfD Björn Höcke wrote articles praising the Nazis under the moniker Landolf Ladig. He said in an interview with Wallstreet Journal "You know a great problem is that we depict Hitler as the absolute evil".
In addition the magazine correctiv.org uncovered a Wannsee-Conference 2.0 at the beginning of the year organized by another Austrian neo-nazi and members of the high society and AfD in which the planned the mass deportation of immigrants when AfD will come into power. Those immigrants are the back bone of many societal branches like health care.
That's supposed to convince people you're not a braindead enlightened centrist?
The point of the meme isn't "Hitler literally never said anything good or had any good qualities" you utter fucking cabbage
