interesting footage.

Comments in general (and on the page here in question) show that people don’t realize that the problem with the monsters is that, in the case of charismatic dictators/leaders, they REALLY ARE CHARISMATIC!!. That is a great part of the problem in the first place. (conventional despots that replace a charismatic despot, like Stalin following Lenin, are another matter).

By accounts I have read, Hitler WAS charismatic and popular, and none of this changed the fact that he started world war ii, causing the warfare-related deaths of >10,000,000++ people in addition to another >10,000,000 civilian deaths murdered by his government.
