Honestly there was nothing good about this man. He was only skilled in manipulating others. He was not a very great leader.
On a social level yes he was intelligent. On a political level he was a f***ing moron.
But then again; it all depends on your own personal thoughts of him.

He killed million of people adn for what?
He killed jews only because he thought of them as an unpure race. So that gives him the power to kill?
Hitler was the greatest killer humanity has ever known
Lol @ using "he killed people" to separate him from the American powers.
As if Colombus isn't responsible for all Native American Oppression, and while we are at it, the black slave trade as well.
That's hardly a comparison. The black slave trade; uggghhhh don't get me started. I'll skip that for now.
Okay let's say the spaniards came here and "Oppressed" the Native Americans. We have payed the price in today's society. They have reserves where pretty much almost NO laws apply to them. I feel remorse for our actions, but I don't pity them.
The black slave trade; ick. This wasn't even as bad as people make out to be. Most slaves were treated fairly. Besides, the BLACK slave trade is a very stupid way to put it. A better way to put it would be "a slave trade that took place over time." We didn't single out black people. We chose them because they were the best choice for us to use as slaves. They didn't know the area they were being brought into as well as the Native Americans, and they could stand the heat. We couldn't. We tried several others before resorting to the Africans. This included EUROPEANS as well. Nobody was racist back then, we just chose the one that would be best for our economical improvement. Besides they ended up better off. Had we not saved them from that hell hole they call a country, they would still be over there with horrible disease and famine. Now I know you're thinking "Woah! He just went way out of line!" but it's the truth. It's not racism; it is fact. They are undoubtably one of the richest continents on earth as far as natural rescourse goes, they just don't properly use what they could use.
This has gone on way too long anyway. The bottom line is America>Hitler's Dictatorship.
Well your long paragraph raises the question; Is Darwinism equivilant Racism? I am Anti-Capitalist, and thus Anti-Darwinist, to me, they are no different.
And on the issue of Hitler being worse than America; let me ask you this. Does Human Life make a difference? Do numbers mean anything? I think it is fair to say that a single death is a tragedy; but it is just as equally fair to say that a million is a statistic[1]. The comparison between Colombus and Hitler was to show that numbers are essentially the same in these matters, to compare the existence of these two nations.
Both nations were capitalist.
Both nations had an elite class (some are just too blind to see that this is true in America)
Both nations attack other nations for lack of reason against the NATION they are attacking, rather, in our case, we think we can walk into Cambodia because the Viet Kong is getting weapon supplies from there. We think we can invade Afghanistan because a former CIA Tactician that became angry when we drove him out of Saudi Arabia in 1998 and decided to plan an attack on our homeland that our government knew about and still allowed to happened. Hitler declared war on all of Europe, and the only difference is that he was more direct with his people concerning why he did these actions.
Oh, and the holocaust card.... being of Jewish decendancy, I can say that it is taken too seriously. There have been many genocides in History, and to be quite honest, Jews only remember it because Jews died. They don't even care that a Million Catholics died, or that blacks and gays died. They will be like, but it was SIX MILLION JEWS. SIX MILLION, THERE WEREN'T SIX MILLION OF ANYONE ELSE, IT WAS SIX MILLION OF US. Seriously, they need to get over themselves, genocide isn't all bad, though it should not be of the Jewish people specifically, it is something that can be quite useful when there are too many people alive as it is.
War totals make no difference, on the standard of how things went down, the offense of the actions, they are equal, for we are founded on Genocide while he wasted his time on it. We deceive our people to the point in which they think we fight justified wars. At least Hitler was up-front about the fact that he thought it was Germany's right to take back Poland and the Loraine. We create moral's, rather, we stole them from "God" and claim to fight for them and our freedom when we break so many of those morals and freedoms of our people. A nation cannot be free if it oppresses others.[2] It only takes 5 minutes of reading up on what the US occupation of the Phillippenes was like to understand my point.
Oh, and Western Ethic, that killing is wrong, that we treat others the way we like to be treated, is not only lacking fact to back it up, but eminates hypocritically through the land of the jailed home of the slave.[3] It is embarassing to say the least that we live in a nation founded on such great ideas and to see that when the ability to control this freedom is put into the wrong hands, business gets too much, and the people get too little.
I'm not advocating Hitler, not to any degree. Simply put, I am showing you how his actions are on the same level.... maybe not in strength of action, but in sinister mentality, as America's.
