Tired Of Comparing Your Political Enemies To Hitler? Here Are Some Other Evil Despots Worth Mentioning – Part I
Daily Wire ^ | 13 Jan 2024 | Hayden Daniel

Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler may be the most infamous villain in world history. He perpetrated the Holocaust, unleashed a reign of totalitarian oppression over most of Europe, and initiated the most destructive conflict the world has ever seen.

Ian Kershaw, a distinguished historian widely regarded as one of the foremost experts on Hitler and the Nazi regime, has referred to him as “the embodiment of modern political evil.” The accuracy of that assessment is showcased by the fact that partisans of all political stripes (though it is especially favored by the Left to refer to anything even remotely Right-of-center) use comparisons to Hitler and his ideology as the ultimate slander against their opponents.

In fact, as many have pointed out, the comparison has become so ubiquitous that in many ways it has lost its effectiveness as a political epithet. Additionally, to rely on a single historical reference to embody evil diminishes public awareness of other psychopathic despots (especially Left-wing ones) who have rampaged through history, even in the last century.

So, here is a non-exhaustive list of tyrants of the 20th Century who we can reference besides Hitler.

Vladimir Lenin...

Lenin, Stalin, Mao, Genghis khan.
Those people all killed more people than Hitler.
Pol-pot was probably the worst killer in the proportional count, killing about quarter of the population he could kill!

It is wrong to compare most American politicians to Hitler.

After all, Hitler was faithful to his spouse, loved animals, and only drank in moderation.

Interesting looking article, thanks, but I typically decline to sign up for even free accounts, so I’ll have to skip it.

Paraphrasing Ronald Reagan: 'Communists read Karl Marx. Anti-communists understand Karl Marx.'

Right now, I’m gonna go for FJB to be at the top of the list. His treachery is America-ending. One only needed to look at his red-tinged night time Philadelphia Nuremberg Rally to see that. The USMC should be ashamed for allowing its soldiers to be used there.

Was out on the balcony having a smoke and a Jeep came down the street flying a huge flag reading BIDEN SUCKS. And this is in Democratic Maryland. LOL!

Actually he did not drink at all, had a mistress he repeatedly refused to marry, poisoned his dog and was a vegetarian.

We will not talk about the rumors that the reason he was so enamored of athletic young men was because his loafers were floating. We have no actual proof of that.

If Biden had a fiddle, I might compare him to Nero

Don’t believe the propaganda. Hitler drinking beer at about the 4 minute mark of this video. You might also enjoy some of the other photos in this video.

Sure, I am going to believe what a sub-par humorist has to say on the subject.

People really should stop believing everything they see on the internet. It rots the brain.

Mark Felton did a video about private pictures Hitler made sure were never made public, and he did rarely indulge in a beer or wine.
