[I still care]

I know this is really strange, but there are entire websites devoted to “hitler” cats.

One of the most astonishing things about the internet, is how aware I’ve become of people that get deeply involved in the most unusual things. From “ugly dogs” to collecting old koolaid packages to pictures of weird cakes.

I first became aware of the phenomenon when I was selling on ebay over ten years ago, and I sold a Rubik’s cube manual. I bought it for ten cents and sold it for over twenty dollars to some person named Rubikmaniac or such. And I realized then, people will collect anything.

I guess the days of collecting stamps and salt and pepper shakers are gone. There is a site for EVERYTHING.

What you say is true! As a devotee of Facepage, I have linked with people all over America and Great Britain in my love of obscure old baby-boomer tv shows and Hollywood movies. The arcane knowledge out there is amazing!

Personally, I see it as a good thing. It keeps people away from hateful politics as practised by our current media elites and the pols who love them.

I wonder if Ebay started it all?

I've seen that site (although I think one of their kitlers looks more like Groucho Marx).

On the other end of the totalitarian spectrum, there's also Lenin Cat.
