I actually kind of admire him.
Sure, he tortured and murdered a lot of innocent people, and he's in my top ten, "People I hate," list, but he took over Germany. That's kind of badass. He was a genius. If he'd put it towards good, he could have united the world. Maybe.

Kay's new life goal:
Write a story with a Hitler-esque guy as main character. Lead it from his perspective. And see how many memes he creates for being such a badass by people who think he's the greatest thing sinced presliced bread.
>.> He helped Germany bootstrap itself out of a crippling depression by appealing to deep-seated parts of the national psyche. He also created some pretty solid infrastructure.
However, he did this in basically the most dickish way possible while being crazy as a bedbug.
Brilliant... okay, yes, fine, he was a good politician who helped Germany out of a dark place. But also a total bastard douche who was responsible for horrible things.
