No one (almost no one) ever thinks of what they do as evil.

The Nazis thought they were great guys, doing good for the world.

Here's a screen grab from the Huffington Post. Note that two of the lunatic's favorite reads is The COMMUNIST MANIFESTO and MEIN KAMPF.

The National Socialist German Workers' Party (German: Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei, abbreviated NSDAP), commonly known in English as the Nazi Party (from the German Nazi, abbreviated from the pronunciation of Nationalsozialist[5]), was a political party in Germany between 1919 and 1945. It was known as the German Workers' Party (DAP) prior to a change of name in 1920.

National Health Care: Medicine in Germany 1918-1945 [Nazi health care]
Does the Modern Bureaucratization of Medicine Risk a Return to the Horrors of National Socialist Medicine?

by Marc S. Micozzi M.D.

Today we are concerned about issues such as doctor-assisted suicide, abortion, the use of fetal tissue, genetic screening, birth control and sterilization, health-care rationing and the ethics of medical research on animals and humans. These subjects are major challenges in both ethics and economics at the end of the twentieth century. But at the beginning of the twentieth century the desire to create a more scientific medical practice and research had already raised the issues of euthanasia, eugenics, and medical experimentation on human subjects. In addition, the increasing involvement of the German government in medical care and funding medical research established the government-medical complex that the National Socialists later used to execute their extermination policies. ..."

The screamingputz is still at it; just noticed.

I’ve never had a Freeper stalker in all these years.

Not bad for having no idea what he’s mad at you about, but you did a good job. He’s amusing.

I heard a podcast one time where the guy was asking "Who was more evil, Alexander the Great or Hitler?" and his point was that, whatever crimes were committed, Hitler believed that he was doing good for the German people. There was an actual belief system, as horrifying as we find it. Alexander, on the other hand, appears to have tried to conquer most of the world for no other reason that his own personal glory, committing crimes on those he conquered that lacked only the industrial scale of the Nazis, such as massacring the male residents of any city that resisted him and selling the women and children into slavery.

And yet today, Hitler is considered the arch-villain of all time and Alexander is "the Great." Partly that's the result of the Romans, an aggressive people themselves, making Alexander their hero a few hundred years after his heyday. It makes you wonder what Hitler's image will be a thousand years from now.
